Evaluating clinical decision support systems: monitoring CPOE order check override rates in the Department of Veterans Affairs' computerized patient record system.
Lin C-P, Payne TH, Nichol P, et al. Evaluating clinical decision support systems: monitoring CPOE order check override rates in the Department of Veterans Affairs' Computerized Patient Record System. J Am Med Inform Assoc. 2008;15(5):620-6. doi:10.1197/jamia.M2453.
This study discovered that override rates of potentially critical adverse drug events remain problematic despite a clinical decision support system designed to prevent them. Investigators call for greater qualitative research to understand the interactions between these systems and the clinical providers who use them.
