Clinical Decision SupportĀ for Exact Medication Duplicate Orders
ICIS will generate alerts when you order a medication that is already in the patient's profile. These alerts will fire only when you enter a medication order containing a drug that matches a previously submitted active medication order.
Please note that there are exceptions to this rule. The Medication Safety Committee approved to exclude from duplicate checking the following drugs:
Insulin | Heparin | Mylanta |
Furosemide | Morphine | Potassium Chloride |
Metoprolol | Acetaminophen | Percocet (acetaminophen/oxycodone) |
This list is subject to change based upon further analysis of alert statistics and user feedback.
Refer to the Alerts section of this site for an up-to-date listing of drugs excluded from duplicate checking.
For assistance or feedback related to this issue, please contact the ICIS Support Desk at (212) 263-0123.
