Electronic prescribing systems offer benefits but introduce new risks for adverse drug events. Careful strategy development and thorough evaluation are crucial for patient safety during implementation.

Area of Science:

  • Health Informatics
  • Patient Safety
  • Medication Management

Context:

  • Government initiatives promote electronic information systems to reduce adverse drug events.
  • Norway's national project introduces electronic prescribing systems.
  • International literature on electronic prescribing and CPOE is reviewed.

Purpose:

  • To analyze the dual impact of electronic prescribing on adverse drug events.
  • To highlight the potential for both error reduction and introduction of new risks.
  • To emphasize the need for risk mitigation strategies in electronic prescribing implementation.

Summary:

  • Electronic prescribing systems can decrease some medication errors but may introduce new risks.
  • Established manual safety routines can be inadvertently disrupted by new electronic systems.
