Despite extensive research and interventions, medication prescribing errors in hospital continue to occur. This review sought to identify prescribing errors and factors that facilitate or prevent prescribing errors. Prescribing errors were categorized as prescriber-, prescription-, technology-, or organization-related, or unclassified. Most errors were organization-related. The authors recommend examining facilitators and barriers to prescribing safety prior to implementing new interventions.
