Bahasa Abstract

Kesalahan pengobatan menyebabkan kematian dan cedera setiap hari, menurunkan kualitas hidup dan menghabiskan hampir 1% dari total pengeluaran kesehatan global. Salah satu solusi untuk kesalahan resep adalah menggunakan teknologi seperti Computer Physician Order Entry (CPOE). Tujuan dari studi ini adalah untuk menilai penggunaan CPOE dalam mengurangi kesalahan pengobatan. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah tinjauan literatur naratif dengan penelitian sistematis, dengan 14 studi yang disertakan. Sistem CPOE di rumah sakit ditemukan mampu mengurangi kesalahan pengobatan terutama pada tahap resep dan administrasi. Namun, sistem CPOE dapat dikaitkan dengan jenis kesalahan pengobatan baru, oleh karena itu, sistem CPOE harus mempertimbangkan faktor manusia, disesuaikan dengan kebutuhan rumah sakit, dan pelatihan berkelanjutan untuk mengurangi kesalahan pengobatan.
