About this trial

Drug-related iatrogenesis is a major public health issue, accounting for a significant proportion of adverse events and hospitalizations in emergency departments. Optimizing prescription management in this context is critical to improve both patient safety and physician efficiency This study aims to evaluate the impact of the POSOS AI-driven device on the medical time required for prescription management in polymedicated patients admitted to emergency departments. The main objective is to establish whether the use of POSOS can reduce transcription time compared to standard electronic management.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Medical time required for the transcription of prescriptions

Medical time required for the transcription of prescriptions for at-risk polymedicated patients at emergency admission. This is measured by the duration needed to transcribe prescriptions into the structured electronic health record by physicians, assessed by direct observation with a stopwatch

Time frame
Day 1

Secondary outcomes

1

Number of drug-related problems (DRPs) identified per patient

Time frame
day 1
2

Proportion and type of transcription errors (medication name or dosage)

Time frame
day 1
3

Identification of DRPs by subtype and severity

Time frame
day 1
4

Rate of reconciled medication histories and structured documentation

Time frame
