General design: The investigator centres will be equipped with the electronic prescribing system (EPS) developed for the project. For each patient, the software requires the seizure of weight and plasma creatinine and calculates ClCr using Cockcroft formula, from which the result is accessible to the physician. After a phase of training of the EPS, the quality of the orders given to old subjects having renal failure (defined by ClCr<60 ml/mn) will be studied for 3 months under natural conditions of prescribing, without use of the counselling system (sequence A). After this phase, the counselling system will be activated for 6 months (sequence B) in 6 investigatory centres chosen by a cluster randomisation process. The centres were paired by the numbers of orders during the sequence A. For each pair, the centres were allocated to either intervention or control group by a randomisation table.
