Computerized provider order entry (CPOE) is a health informatics system that helps health care providers create and manage orders for medications and other health care services. Through the automation of the ordering process, CPOE has improved the overall efficiency of hospital processes and workflow. In Saudi Arabia, CPOE has been used for years, with only a few studies evaluating the impacts of CPOE on clinical workflow. In this paper, we discuss the experience of a local hospital with the use of CPOE and its impacts on clinical workflow. Results show that there are many issues related to the implementation and use of CPOE within Saudi Arabia that must be addressed, including design, training, medication errors, alert fatigue, and system dep Recommendations for improving CPOE use within Saudi Arabia are also discussed.
