Effectiveness of provider price display in computerized physician order entry (CPOE) on healthcare quality: a systematic review.

ABSTRACT: Objective:To study the association between Electronic Health Record (EHR)/Computerized Physician Order Entry (CPOE) provider price display, and domains of healthcare quality (efficiency, effective care, patient centered care, patient safety, equitable care, and timeliness of care). Methods:Randomized and non-randomized studies assessing the relationship between healthcare quality domains and EHR/CPOE provider price display published between 1/1/1980 to 2/1/2018 were included. MEDLINE, Web of Science, and Embase were searched. Assessment of internal validity of the included studies was performed with a modified Downs-Black checklist. Results:Screening of 1118 abstracts was performed resulting in selection of 41 manuscripts for full length review. A total of 13 studies were included in the final analysis. Thirteen studies reported on efficiency domain, one on effectiveness and one on patient safety. Studies assessing relationship between provider price display and patient centered, equitable and timely care domains were not retrieved. Quality of the studies varied widely (Range 6-12 out of a maximum possible score of 13). Provider price display in electronic health record environment did not consistently influence domains of healthcare quality such as efficiency, effectiveness and patient safety. Conclusions:Published evidence suggests that price display tools aimed at ordering providers in EHR/CPOE do not influence the efficiency domain of healthcare quality. Scant published evidence suggests that they do not influence the effectiveness and patient safety domains of healthcare quality. Future studies are needed to assess the relationship between provider price display and unexplored domains of healthcare quality (patient centered, equitable, and timely care).

Project description:ImportanceConventional approaches for tracking postoperative adverse events requires manual medical record review, thus limiting the scalability of such efforts.ObjectiveTo determine if a surveillance system using computerized provider order entry (CPOE) events for selected medications as well as laboratory, microbiologic, and radiologic orders can decrease the manual medical record review burden for surveillance of postoperative complications.Design, setting, and participantsThis cohort study reviewed the medical records of 21 775 patients who underwent surgical procedures at a university-based tertiary referral center (University of Utah, Salt Lake City) from July 1, 2007, to August 31, 2017. Patients were included if their case was selected for review by a surgical clinical reviewer as part of the National Surgical Quality Improvement Program. Patients were excluded if they had incomplete follow-up data.Main outcomes and measuresThirty-day postoperative occurrences of superficial surgical site infection, deep surgical site infection, organ space surgical site infection, urinary tract infection, pneumonia, sepsis, septic shock, deep vein thrombosis requiring therapy, and pulmonary embolism, as defined by the National Surgical Quality Improvement Program. A logistic regression model was developed for each postoperative complication using CPOE features as predictors on a development set, and performance was measured on a holdout internal validation set. The models were internally validated using bootstrapping with 10 000 replications to determine the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of CPOE-based surveillance system.ResultsThe study included 21 775 patients who underwent surgical procedures. Among these patients, 11 855 (54.4%) were women and 9920 (45.6%) were men, with a mean (SD) age of 51.7 (16.8) years. Overall, the prevalence of postoperative complications was low, ranging from 0.2% (pulmonary embolism) to 2.6% (superficial surgical site infection). Use of CPOE events to detect patients who experienced at least 1 complication had a sensitivity of 74.8% (95% CI, 71.1%-78.4%), specificity of 86.8% (95% CI, 85.5%-88.3%), positive predictive value of 33.8% (95% CI, 31.2%-36.4%), negative predictive value of 97.5% (95% CI, 97.1%-97.8%), and area under the curve of 0.808 (95% CI, 0.791-0.824). The negative predictive value for individual complications ranged from 98.7% to 100%. Use of CPOE events to screen for adverse events was estimated to diminish the burden of manual medical record review by 55.4% to 90.3%. A CPOE-based surveillance system performed well for both inpatient and outpatient procedures.Conclusions and relevanceA CPOE-based surveillance of postoperative complications has high negative predictive value, which demonstrates that this approach can augment the currently used, resource-intensive manual medical record review process.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Computerized physician order entry (CPOE) has grown since the early 1990s. While many systems serve adult patients, systems for pediatric and neonatal populations have lagged. Adapting adult CPOE systems for pediatric use may require significant modifications to address complexities associated with pediatric care such as daily weight changes and small medication doses. OBJECTIVE:This article aims to review the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) CPOE literature to characterize trends in the introduction of this technology and to identify potential areas for further research. METHODS:Articles pertaining to NICU CPOE were identified in MEDLINE using MeSH terms "medical order entry systems," "drug therapy," "intensive care unit, neonatal," "infant, newborn," etc. Two physician reviewers evaluated each article for inclusion and exclusion criteria. Consensus judgments were used to classify the articles into five categories: medication safety, usability/alerts, clinical practice, clinical decision Support (CDS), and implementation. Articles addressing pediatric (nonneonatal) CPOE were included if they were applicable to the NICU setting. RESULTS:Sixty-nine articles were identified using MeSH search criteria. Twenty-two additional articles were identified by hand-searching bibliographies and 6 articles were added after the review process. Fifty-five articles met exclusion criteria, for a final set of 42 articles. Medication safety was the focus of 22 articles, followed by clinical practice (10), CDS (10), implementation (11), and usability/alerts (4). Several addressed more than one category. No study showed a decrease in medication safety post-CPOE implementation. Within clinical practice articles, CPOE implementation showed no effect on blood glucose levels or time to antibiotic administration but showed conflicting results on mortality rates. Implementation studies were largely descriptive of single-hospital experiences. CONCLUSION:CPOE implementation within the NICU has demonstrated improvement in medication safety, with the most consistent benefit involving a reduction in medication errors and wrong-time administration errors. Additional research is needed to understand the potential limitations of CPOE systems in neonatal intensive care and how CPOE affects mortality.

Project description:Prescribing errors represent a safety risk for hospitalized patients, especially in pediatrics. Computerized physician order entry (CPOE) might reduce prescribing errors, although its effect has not yet been thoroughly studied on pediatric general wards. This study investigated the impact of a CPOE on prescribing errors in children on general wards at the University Children's Hospital Zurich. We performed medication reviews on a total of 1000 patients before and after the implementation of a CPOE. The CPOE included limited clinical decision support (CDS) such as drug-drug interaction check and checks for duplicates. Prescribing errors, their type according to the PCNE classification, their severity (adapted NCC MERP index), as well as the interrater reliability (Cohen's kappa), were analyzed. Potentially harmful errors were significantly reduced from 18 errors/100 prescriptions (95% CI: 17-20) to 11 errors/100 prescriptions (95% CI: 9-12) after CPOE implementation. A large number of errors with low potential for harm (e.g., "missing information") was reduced after the introduction of the CPOE, and consequently, the overall severity of potential harm increased post-CPOE. Despite general error rate reduction, medication reconciliation problems (PCNE error 8), such as drugs prescribed on paper as well as electronically, significantly increased after the introduction of the CPOE. The most common pediatric prescribing errors, the dosing errors (PCNE errors 3), were not altered on a statistically significant level after the introduction of the CPOE. Interrater reliability showed moderate agreement (Κ = 0.48). Conclusion: Patient safety increased by reducing the rate of prescribing errors after CPOE implementation. The reason for the observed increase in medication reconciliation problems might be the hybrid system with remaining paper prescriptions for special medication. The lacking effect on dosing errors could be explained by the fact that a web application CDS covering dosing recommendations (PEDeDose) was already in use before the implementation of the CPOE. Further investigations should focus on eliminating hybrid systems, interventions to increase the usability of the CPOE, and full integration of CDS tools such as automated dose checks into the CPOE. What is Known: • Prescribing errors, especially dosing errors, are a common safety threat for pediatric inpatients. •The introduction of a CPOE may reduce prescribing errors, though pediatric general wards are poorly studied. What is New: •To our knowledge, this is the first study on prescribing errors in pediatric general wards in Switzerland investigating the impact of a CPOE. •We found that the overall error rate was significantly reduced after the implementation of the CPOE. The severity of potential harm was higher in the post-CPOE period, which implies that low-severity errors were substantially reduced after CPOE implementation. Dosing errors were not reduced, but missing information errors and drug selection errors were reduced. On the other hand, medication reconciliation problems increased.
