  • Title: Computerized pharmacokinetics on an institutional clinical information system.
    Author: Chrymko MM, Scherpbier HJ.
    Journal: Pharm Pract Manag Q; 1995 Oct; 15(3):36-43. PubMed ID: 10151711.
    Abstract:
    Computer-based hospital information systems (HISs) are an integral part of the current hospital environment. Traditionally, the HIS hospital information system has performed drug distribution-related activities for the pharmacy. Clinical applications have been limited to monitoring for drug interactions, duplication of therapy, drug allergies, and dosage range checking. Personal computers have been used for more clinical applications and individualized dosing. At Hamot Medical Center, the integration of the pharmacokinetics consultation service with the HIS has been accomplished. The pharmacokinetic equations were programmed into the HIS. Data needed for the equations were extracted from information in the database, thereby eliminating the need to enter the majority of the data. The program was designed to print the pharmacokinetic consultation for the chart. The integration of the pharmacokinetic consultation service with the HIS has saved time and increased efficiency.
