Association between Full Electronic Medical Record System Adoption and Drug Use: Antibiotics and Polypharmacy

Abstract: We investigated associations between full Electronic Medical Record (EMR) system adoption and drug use in healthcare organizations (HCOs) to explore whether EMR system features such as electronic prescribing, medicines reconciliation, and decision support, might be related to drug use by using the relevant nationwide data. Methods: The study design was cross-sectional. Survey data of the level of adoption of EMR systems were collected for the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development benchmarking i… Show more

“…Therefore, this study is meaningful because it used EMR data to investigate long-term clinical outcomes in PAD patients. Second, as the study data were collected from a tertiary hospital's EMRs, the generalizability may be limited; however, this tertiary hospital adopted a full EMR system in which rich clinical documents are stored electronically [31]. Finally, as this was a retrospective longitudinal study, we could not control other potential confounding variables during the follow-up period.…”

“…Furthermore, ERMS can improve operational efficiency and support decision-making that can improve business-related outcomes. ERMS, if implemented with BDM, will create a special connection with users and production growth (Dong et al, 2021;Park et al, 2020;Saffady, 2021;.…”

“…Hospital management information systems are implemented for electronic medical record purposes that integrate information from pharmacies, radiology, and laboratories, thus providing access to information that presents a comprehensive picture of the patient's health, treatment, and background (Arvanitis and Loukis, 2016). SIM RS has capabilities that are increasingly integral to many work processes in health organizations and are proven to improve health services, reduce antibiotic use and make work easier (Ayaad et al, 2019;Park et al, 2020). Nevertheless, apart from the beneficial results regarding hospital driver's licenses and healthcare services for patients, the extensive integration of information systems in healthcare has also damaged the working conditions of healthcare professionals, especially doctors and nurses.…”
