Introduction
Computerized physician order entry (CPOE) sytems are quickly becoming widely used and groups of orders ("order sets") to allow for easy order input are a common feature. Order sets are groups of orders commonly used in for condition-specific or situation specific encounters. The order set components (specific order) can be set up to be "preselected" or "defaulted-on" whenever the order set is used while other components might be "optional" or "defaulted-off". Physicians create order habits based on their needs and incorporate order sets to their workflow of practice.Cite error: Closing </ref> missing for <ref> tag
