Outline
• WHY CPOE?
• CPOE in the Critical Care Unit
• MICU CPOE Lessons Learned
• Questions
Computerized Provider Order Entry (CPOE) - WHY?
• Improved Patient Care– Patient Safety (medication errors)– Improved Efficiency and Quality of Care
• Support of Compliance Efforts
• Support of Provider Billing Activities
• External Forces: Payers-Leapfrog, Legislation
• Marketing Advantage
Critical Care Impact on Health Care Resources
• 15-20% of health care expenditures (1.5% GNP)
• 10-25% of all hospital beds and increasing• Postoperative management accounts for 65%
of all ICU admissions. • ICU’s are usually money-losing operation due
to “outliers” (10% patients account for 67% of costs)
• Large shortage of “skilled” critical care providers

CPOE Benefits in Critical Care
Improved Quality and Efficiency of Care– Lab collection - 77 down to 21.5 min.– Radiology Exams - 96.5 down to 29.5 min.
• Crit Care Med 2004; 32:1306 –1309
– NICU medication turn-around times- 10.5 down to 2.8 hours
– Improved NICU accuracy of gentamicin dosing-12% over/under dosages decreased to 0%
• Journal of Perinatology (2004) 24, 88–93.
Denver Health Clinical Statistics
• 20,000 admissions annually• 75% minority population
• MICU-24 beds (Step-down Unit-8 beds)• 2,000 Admissions annually
• CPOE In Use For 23 months– ~500 providers/users trained
– ~6,000 orders input/week
– ~30 standardized care order sets being used
CPOE/CDSS : Protocol Driven Aggressive Correction Of Diabetic Emergencies
• Diabetic Emergencies– Diabetic Ketoacidosis
– Hyperglycemic hyperosmolar syndrome
– 5-18% of admission to MICU
– Aggressive “tight” blood sugar control in other critical illness (sepsis) reduced mortality
• Principles of management– Multiple differing strategies, very little rigorous prospective evaluation
• Correct metabolic abnormalities
• Correct precipitant
• Aggressive IV fluid resuscitation
• Insulin, Potassium

MICU CPOE Lessons Learned
• Organizational/Physician Resistance– Executive staff commitment– Physician champions– Address workflow and policy changes (physician, nursing
participation is critical)
• Cost– Single Vendor (interoperability)– Focus on safety– Measure impact
• Product Immaturity– Establish long-term relationship with vendor– Expect to use resources to “customize” application
MICU CPOE Lessons Learned
• Training– Universal computer literacy– Flexibility to meet house staff needs
• Time efficiency is critical– Sign-on– User acceptance testing
• CPOE can drive critical care performance improvement– Protocolization/guideline implementation with order sets– Integrate Evidence Based Medicine– IS staff need clinical experience
MICU CPOE Lessons Learned
• Appropriate support important– On Site Command post
– 24/7 Tech Support During go-live
• Project Management– Issue escalation process
– Address the technology and integration issue first
• Measuring up to the VA system
