Study summary

The objective of this prospective study is to build a real-time interactive platform where doctors and pharmacists may communicate and solve patients' drug-related problems (DRP) immediately and document accordingly. This study will also design a computerized physician order entry (CPOE) system utilizing default protocol for chemotherapy order entry.

Read the detailed description

To err is human. Most errors are caused by problems in the system. Punishing health personnel cannot prevent the same mistakes. The only solution is a good medication system. CPOE system can prevent prescribing errors. The CPOE system is always the major step in some studies concerning reducing prescribing errors, dispensing errors or administering errors. In this user-friendly and convenient era, improvement in the CPOE system is an immediate need.
