We report a survival benefit following the implementation of EHR with computerized physician order entry in a critical care setting and a concomitant decrease in the number of severe medication errors. Although overall hospital LOS was not shortened, this study proposes that EHR implementation in a busy urban hospital was associated with improved ICU outcomes.
