Hello everyone,

Our hospital gets mix ups between adult and peds ERXs every now and then. This can lead to medication errors b/c these ERXs are built differently with different dose/duration limits and safety features.

Curious to know how other hospitals differentiate adult vs peds ERXs in their EHRs?

Any other methods in place to help prevent inadvertent selection of adult ERXs when providers should search for/choose the peds ERX?

Our institution uses Epic.

Thank you!
