Hi all,
There was a thread recently on the impact of computerisation on
medical practice. I wonder if anyone on the list knows if any
studies have been done comparing manual prescribing with computerised
script generation ? I am particularly interested in the subject of
speed of script generation (as opposed to quality).
It seems to be common folklore that, on average, computerised
prescribing is much quicker than its manual counterpart, but when
asked to justify this scientifically, I find myself "referenceless"!!
TIA
