Background: Drug-related problems (DRPs) can lead to serious health issues and have significant economic impacts on healthcare systems. One solution to address this issue is the use of computerized physician order entry systems (CPOE), which can help prevent DRPs by reducing the risk of medication errors.

Objective: The purpose of this study is to provide an analysis on scientific production of the past 20 years in order to describe trends in academic publishing on CPOE and to identify the major topics as well as the predominant actors (journals, countries) involved in this field.

Methods: A PubMed search was carried out to extract articles related to computerized provider order entry during the period January 1st 2003- December 31st 2022 using a specific query. Data were downloaded from PubMed in Extensible Markup Language (XML) and were processed through a dedicated parser.

Results: A total of 2,946 articles were retrieved among 623 journals. One third of these articles were published in eight journals. Publications grew strongly from 2002 to 2006, with a dip in 2008 followed by an increase again in 2009. After 2009, there follows a decreasing until 2022.The most producing countries are the USA with 51.39% of the publication over the period by France (3.80%), and Canada (3.77%). About disciplines, the top 3 is: "medical informatics" (21.62% of articles), "pharmacy" (19.04%), and "pediatrics" (6.56%).

Discussion: This study provides an overview of publication trends related to CPOE, which exhibited a significant increase in the first decade of the 21st century followed by a decline after 2009. Possible reasons for this decline include the emergence of digital health tools beyond CPOE, as well as healthcare professionals experiencing alert fatigue of the current system.

Conclusion: Future research should focus on analyzing publication trends in the field of medical informatics and decision-making tools to identify other areas of interest that may have surpassed the development of CPOE.

Background: In order to develop contemporary telehealth curricula for entry-to-practice physiotherapy programs that develop the capabilities required to practice telehealth, it is important to evaluate the delivery of telehealth practices within the physiotherapy profession.

Objective: To assess the current literature to (i) determine what types of assessments and interventions have been delivered via synchronous forms of telehealth (videoconferencing and telephone) by physiotherapists (ii) determine which platforms were used for service delivery and which practice areas have delivered synchronous telehealth physiotherapy assessments and interventions.

Design: Scoping review adhering to Joanna Briggs Institute guidelines.

Background: Despite various interventions to improve best-practice venous thromboembolism (VTE) prevention measures within hospitals, compliance remains poor. For health services utilising electronic medication management systems (eMMS), implementation of clinical decision support (CDS) tools could address this gap.

Aim: To evaluate whether local implementation of an integrated electronic alert system linked with a computerised physician order entry (CPOE)-based order set for VTE risk assessment within an eMMS improves the rates of timely VTE risk assessment and guideline-compliant VTE prophylaxis prescribing among hospitalised patients.

Effects of Several Bile Acids on the Production of Virulence Factors by .

Life (Basel)

December 2024

Bacterial Communication and Antimicrobial Strategies Research Unit, University of Rouen Normandy, IUT, 55 Rue Saint Germain, 27000 Evreux, France.

The presence of bile acids in the cystic fibrosis patient's lungs contributes to an increase in the inflammatory response, in the dominance of pathogens, as well as in the decline in lung function, increasing morbidity. The aim of this study is to determine the effects of exposure of to primary and secondary bile acids on the production of several virulence factors which are involved in its pathogenic power. The presence of bile acids in the bacterial culture medium had no effect on growth up to a concentration of 1 mM.

Obinutuzumab was approved for front-line treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia in combination with chlorambucil pulses administered every 2 wks. Alternative schedules of chlorambucil enable the administration of higher total chlorambucil doses, and have better antileukemia activity. So far, evidence on the feasibility of combining obinutuzumab with alternative chlorambucil schedules is lacking.

Integrated Quality Prediction Model for Food Quality Management Based on in Shared Kitchens.

Foods

December 2024

Department of Industrial & Systems Engineering, Dongguk University, Seoul 04620, Republic of Korea.

Shared kitchens have a lower entry barrier than traditional kitchens, which generally require a significant initial investment, and have thus attracted attention as the most realistic new business model for restaurants in the sharing economy. The restaurant industry is founded on ensuring the safety of the food it serves in order to prevent the spread of foodborne diseases within the community, so strict quality control is essential. Existing food quality management typically employs continuous quality assistance, which is difficult to apply to the highly volatile shared kitchen environment and its various stakeholders.
