Abstract
A rules-based electronic drug prescribing system is described, which by means of radio-linked mobile terminals allows bedside entry of drug prescription and administration data to be evaluated in real-time against wideranging clinical data including interactions and allergies. Results of a questionnaire assessing the acceptability of the system are summarised, and preliminary analysis of data gathered as part of routine operation is presented, showing doctors’ responses to warning messages of differing severity.
