Physician order entry (POE) systems show good user satisfaction, particularly when perceived to improve productivity. Development should focus on speed, help, and quality benefits for both physicians and nurses.

Area of Science:

  • Health Informatics
  • Medical Technology Evaluation
  • Human-Computer Interaction in Healthcare

Background:

  • Physician Order Entry (POE) systems are increasingly adopted in hospitals.
  • Evaluating user satisfaction and usage is crucial for system optimization.
  • Understanding different user groups' needs is essential for successful POE implementation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess user satisfaction with POE systems.
  • To identify factors correlating with user satisfaction.
  • To analyze self-reported usage patterns of POE features.

Main Methods:

  • Surveys were distributed to physician and nurse users of POE systems.
  • Data collected from medical and surgical services within a single hospital.

  • User satisfaction, perceived impact on productivity, ease of use, and feature utilization were assessed.

    • Main Results:

    • Overall user satisfaction with POE was high (mean = 5.07/7).
    • Physicians reported higher satisfaction than nurses; medical staff higher than surgical staff.
    • Satisfaction strongly correlated with perceived productivity, ease of use, and speed; less so with quality of care features.

    Conclusions:

    • User satisfaction with POE is generally good, driven more by productivity perceptions than quality improvements.
    • Significant differences exist between physician and nurse users, highlighting the need for inclusive development.
    • Future POE development should prioritize system speed, on-line help, and clear communication of quality benefits.
