The workflow for ordering medications was redesigned through the use of an electronic
\nprocess to enter and manage the medication-ordering process referred to as CPOE. CPOE
\nis defined as the utilization of software to support the medication-ordering process of the
\nprovider. CPOE and barcoding medications have been shown to prevent medication errors
\nin multiple studies (Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality, 2017), and, as a result,
\nCPOE was a critical component for meaningful use (MU) stage 1 requirements.
\nCPOE has helped avoid potential harm to patients through safer medication management
\nand administration. Additionally, commentaries have called for CPOE designers to tailor
\nalerts to maximize safety while avoiding alert fatigue. Yet there have also been unintended
\nconsequences of CPOE systems; for example, more or new work for clinicians, unfavorable
\nworkflow issues, and\/or unfavorable changes in communication patterns (Ash et al., 2007).
\nA typical acute care CPOE process is reflected in the workflow diagram in Figure 21.8.
\nHospitals and providers map processes in workflows as depicted in this figure to determine
\nwhere areas of concern for patient safety might arise and to think through QI initiatives that
\nwould address the potential concerns.<\/p><\/div>\n

 Workflow redesign is an important technique to
\nadopt to address challenges with technology implementation and to optimize technology
\nonce implemented.

NURS 8077 Assignment
\nExamine the workflow relating to CPOE and reflect on the following questions:
\n\u2022 Consider how your clinical area manages the process of medication orders. Does
\nyour organization use CPOE? Use workflow redesign methods to map your process
\nfor medication ordering and administration.
\n\u2022 Compare and contrast your process to the process diagrammed in Figure 21.8. <\/div>\n
\u2022 Consider the following questions: <\/div>\n
o How does your process compare? Is it more efficient, less efficient, of better
\nquality, or of poorer quality? <\/div>\n
o Which do you believe is the better process? If one or the other is better for
\nquality or efficiency, support your position. <\/div>\n
o How will you measure the process to compare and contrast quality between
\nyour current process and the process mapped in Figure 21.8?<\/div>\n
 o What control charts would you utilize to measure process over time related
\nto CPOE quality?<\/div>\n
 o How would you know if the process was \u201cin control\u201d?<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
