Eye movements were recorded and analyzed; OBJECTIVE: We sought to determine rates of computerized provider order entry (CPOE) patient identity verification and when and where in the ordering process verification occurred; RESULTS: Across all participants patient id was verified significantly more often than not (62.4% vs 37.6%). Vendor A had significantly higher verification rates than not; vendor B had no difference. Participants using vendor A verified information significantly more often before signing the order than after (88.4% vs 11.6%); there was no difference in vendor B. The banner bar was the most frequent verification location UR - https://dx.doi.org/10.1093/jamia/ocaa047 ER -
