| Zusammenfassung: | This paper describes a study of the impact of Physician Order Entry (POE) on pharmacy order turn-around times. The study looked at two surgical services, Neurosurgery and Transplant, of a large Midwestern academic medical center. Pharmacy orders were followed in these units from the time a physician wrote an order to the time the patient received the medication. The first part of the study tracked pharmacy orders for a two-month period before the implementation of POE and the second part of the study tracked pharmacy orders for a two-month period after POE had been implemented. The pre- and post-POE pharmacy turn-around times were compared. It was expected that the data would show a substantial decrease in pharmacy order turn-around times. Our study did, in fact, show a significant reduction in this turn-around-time |
