The only benefit seen was an improvement in wrong time errors. Given the time, energy and cost (upwards of $1+ million/hospital) to implement this technology and the only benefit is improvement in time errors, perhaps it is time to start to re-evaluate the need for this technology. The ROI picture is getting bleaker. ]]>1Fri Jun 05 13:43:08 +0200 2009Fri Jun 05 13:44:23 +0200 20092Fri Jun 05 13:44:23 +0200 2009Fri Jun 05 13:44:23 +0200 2009trueedit: The latest BCMA study is a very good one.
