Detecting workflow changes after a CPOE implementation: a sequential pattern analysis approach
1Department of Pediatrics, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI, USA.
Abstract:
Implementation of CPOE can cause dramatic changes to clinical workflow. We used a sequential pattern analysis approach to analyze time-motion data collected before and after a CPOE implementation in a pediatric intensive care unit. We visualized workflow changes to detect pattern shifting associated with a changed sequential order of performing various clinical tasks. CPOE implementation may increase the frequency of task changing which may not be evident from looking at the sum of overall times.

Cyclic Processes And Isolated Systems
In the case of a non-isolated system, the change in the internal energy is zero only if the process is cyclic. A thermodynamic process is considered cyclic if the system undergoes a series of changes and returns to its initial state.
Consider a cyclic process that returns to its initial state, undergoing a four-step process. The heat transfer along each path...
