An epidemiologic survey of PME in the context of the use of a partial CPOE has allowed to determine the incidence and epidemiology of PME as well as the potential clinical impact they represent. Two risk factors have emerged that can be considered from an organization and software points of view. Better pharmacist's analysis of prescribing medication order within the CPOE system could possibly minimize duplication of antineoplasic drugs and the vital clinical impact associated with overdosage.
