Factors influencing adoption of antidote tracking system among healthcare providers in Malaysian hospital setting

The timely availability of antidotes is crucial as it is helpful for saving lives. There is a lack of studies focused on the use of tracking systems in antidote management, especially in Malaysia. Thus, this study is aimed at examining the factors influencing the adoption of antidote tracking systems among hospitals in Malaysia. A research model derived from the Technology Organization Environment (TOE) framework. Data was collected via a cross-sectional survey from 133 hospitals in Malaysia. The Partial Least Square (PLS) analysis was employed to analyse the data. The results indicate that perceived benefits, compatibility, complexity, security concern, top management support, information system infrastructure, perceived cost and vendor support play a significant role in motivating hospitals to adopt a tracking system for the management of antidotes. This study identified key factors influencing the adoption decision of antidote tracking systems among hospitals in Malaysia and can be used as a reference for future studies.
