Electronic Prescription

The hospital prescription can be defined as the first stage in the supply of medication to a hospitalised patient, and is part of a process that involves various professionals. It is seen as the first stage in a series of events within the medication procedure, which will result in safe or unsafe administration to the patient. It is considered one of the main sources of unexpected errors in the treatment of hospitalised patients. One development as a result of the digital age is the use of electronic prescribing, which among many functions aims to unify the phases of the medication supply procedure, thus reducing errors in each phase and consequently prescription errors. Electronic prescribing is where the healthcare professional uses software following an established pattern instead of manually writing the prescription on a prescription or model form.
