Aim 1: R01-funded work to compare NICU medication order and Medication Administration Record (MAR) data in realtime and notify clinicians when there is a discrepancy (possible error)
Aim 2: Studying the portability of the work into other NICUs and adult ICU settings.
Aim 3: Incorporating smart infusion pump data into Med Administration error detection algorithms, so could compare order, med administration record (MAR) and smart pump data.

Aim 1: Medication administration errors are among the most common types of medical errors
Aim 2: Are the algorithms feasible in other environments and settings, and what customization is needed?
Aim 3: Smart infusion pumps are a source for new types of administration errors
Aim 1: Reduction of administration errors with high-risk medications.
Aim 2: Prove that the algorithms are generalizable depending on workflows and data of the setting.
Aim 3: More robust detection and mitigation of medication administration errors.
