Implication

Mixed methods analysis examines eTOC's effects on medication errors and clinician use in hospitals.

Key Points

  • The implementation of the eTOC system did not significantly reduce medication errors in transfers.
  • Initial findings showed a halving of odds for medication errors during ICU-to-ward transfers (OR: 0.44).
  • This study utilized a mixed methods design, including pre-post chart reviews and clinician interviews.
  • Barriers to effective eTOC use highlight the need for better alignment with clinical workflows and user-friendly design.
