Computerized Provider Order Entry Adoption: Implications for Clinical Workflow
Open accessAbstract
Objective To identify and describe unintended adverse consequences related to clinical workflow when implementing or using computerized provider order entry (CPOE) systems.Methods We analyzed qualitative data from field observations and formal interviews gathered over a three-year period at five hospitals in three organizations. Five multidisciplinary researchers worked together to identify themes related to the impacts of CPOE systems on clinical workflow.Results CPOE systems can affect clinical work by 1) introducing or exposing human/computer interaction problems, 2) altering the pace, sequencing, and dynamics of clinical activities, 3) providing only partial support for the work activities of all types of clinical personnel, 4) reducing clinical situation awareness, and 5) poorly reflecting organizational policy and procedure.Conclusions As CPOE systems evolve, those involved must take care to mitigate the many unintended adverse effects these systems have on clinical workflow. Workflow issues resulting from CPOE can be mitigated by iteratively altering both clinical workflow and the CPOE system until a satisfactory fit is achieved.

- Partly supportedcites [20] Sachs P. Transforming work: Collaboration, learning, and design. Commun ACM. 1995;38(9):36–44. sourceExperimental — accuracy not yet measured
In “Implications for Design” (page unavailable), Sachs says workarounds reveal tension between job standards and the realities of doing the work. The trouble-ticketing case also shows a system designed around organizational assumptions impeding workers’ actual practice. The paper supports that general mechanism, but its example concerns telephone workers, not clinicians or CPOE. (LLM, conf=0.86)

The Introduction says HIT use often diverges from designers’ intentions because systems fail to reflect clinicians’ work patterns. Its CPOE example describes nurses working around an imposed workflow, and it explicitly says such workarounds can preserve collaboration the design does not support. (LLM, conf=0.91)

The Conclusion says unintended consequences result from a constellation of factors whose causes almost never occur in isolation. The Introduction calls for evaluation from multiple personnel perspectives, and the Unfavorable Workflow Issues section links technology, clinical practices, and staff roles. But the Theoretical Framework section identifies Diffusion of Innovations—not a five-component sociotechnical work-system framework—and the paper does not set out the five components claimed.

The unintended adverse consequences of CPOE on clinical workflow need to be carefully managed.
“We specifically focused on unintended adverse consequences because these need to be carefully managed.”

CPOE is meant to aid and enhance care delivery, not to solve every clinical problem.
“CPOE systems are tools intended to support and improve the delivery of care, and are not solutions for all problems related to clinical practice.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-07, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-07 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Cited sources are checked with a language model’s help (gpt-6-sol).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
