for a hospital or health system can be an arduous, time-consuming task. But many institutions find that the larger challenge is not building physician order sets, but adapting them over time to incorporate the latest clinical research, performance measures, and best practices.

What issues must organizations consider when creating, managing and maintaining order sets?
Some of the issues to consider include:
- Updating order sets to reflect evolutions in local practice or in the peer-reviewed literature and performance measures
- Defining authorship privileges (write, review, edit) for different members of the quality improvement team
- Coordinating review and approval cycles for new or updated order sets
- Controlling the release of order sets to ensure that current, approved versions are in use
- Preserving a library and archive of institution-wide order sets
Zynx offers solutions for all these needs. ZynxOrder™ is the Web-based tool for developing and managing evidence-based order sets. ZynxOrder features AuthorSpace™, an online work environment where clinical team members collaborate to customize, modify, and maintain order sets. Learn more about AuthorSpace here.

"Our concern wasn't just building evidence-based order sets, it was building and then maintaining them. How do we ensure that our order sets remain current? Zynx AuthorSpace gives us a mechanism to automate the life of the order so we can set an expiration date and keep the orders current. Zynx Health's research experience and clinical expertise makes us confident that we'll produce evidence-based order sets for years to come."
