Making sense of clinical practice: order set design strategies in CPOE.
A case study was conducted during the customization phase of a commercial CPOE system at a multi-hospital, academic health system. The study focused on the development of order sets. Three distinct approaches to order set development were observed: Empirical, Local Consensus and Departmental. The three approaches are first described and then examined using the framework of sensemaking. Different approaches to sensemaking in the context of order set development reflect variations in sources of knowledge related to the standardization of care.
