As presented in a HIMSS14 virtual session the week of Feb. 23, leaders at North York General Hospital offered insights on the successful integration of CPOE and clinical decision support within an EMR
When evidence-based order sets of a computerized physician order entry system (CPOE), together with real-time clinical decision support (CDS), are used by clinicians within a fully integrated in an electronic medical record (EMR) system, miracles can happen. Specifically, the risk of dying while an inpatient in a hospital can be reduced, as was presented during a HIMSS14 virtual session the week of February 23, as the HIMSS Conference was taking place at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando.
