Flowchart of work process of the morbid obesity CDSS. A physician prescribes medication electronically and the CDSS will evaluate the drug prescription overnight. Hereafter, when a pharmacotherapeutic advice is deemed necessary by the CDSS, a pharmacist evaluates this advice. If an advice is deemed necessary, the physician will be contacted. The physician then either accepts this advice or discards it if dose adjustment is deemed unnecessary for that patient. In yellow: physicians. In green: pharmacists. In blue: patient care.
