  • Title: A computerized assisted pharmacy automatic stop order procedure.
    Author: Weber RE.
    Journal: Hosp Pharm; 1982 Dec; 17(12):664-6, 671. PubMed ID: 10257926.
    Abstract:
    Automatic stop orders, which still seem to plague many hospitals, can be instituted with the cooperation of the medical staff, legal counsel, nursing service, and administration. The use of a computerized assisted pharmacy system, described here, allows compliance with Joint Commission on Accreditation of Hospitals' regulations and also prevents possible legal complications. By utilizing computer-generated reports, appropriate labels, and a drug order entry system for entering a discontinue/renewal time and date, compliance with established policies is possible.
