The Electronic Medicine Administration Record (eMAR); barcode scanning of medications at the time of administration.

emar

The EMAR table is used to record administrations of a given medicine to an individual patient. Records in this table are populated by bedside nursing staff scanning barcodes associated with the medicine and the patient.

Links to

  • emar_detail on emar_id
  • pharmacy on pharmacy_id
  • prescriptions on pharmacy_id
  • poe on poe_id

Important considerations

  • The eMAR system was implemented during 2011-2013. As a result, eMAR data is not available for all patients.

emar_id, emar_seq

Identifiers for the eMAR table. emar_id is a unique identifier for each order made in eMAR. emar_seq is a consecutive integer which numbers eMAR orders chronologically. emar_id is composed of subject_id and emar_seq in the following pattern: 'subject_id-emar_seq'.
