ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE：To design and upgrade the finished infusion label in P IVAS of Hefei Binhu hospital ，so as to improve the safety and effectiveness of intravenous medication. METHODS ：By investigating the experience and suggestions about the use of infusion labels by pharmacists and clinical nurses in PIVAS ，taking clear ，concise，focused，rational layout ，comprehensive information as improving principle ，the infusion label was designed and upgraded. The effect of upgrading were evaluated by the recognition rate of label scanning ，scanning time and rate on label （94 701，113 759 groups，respectively），and the correct rate ， time and rate of drug delivery checking in 30 days before and after upgrading ，as well as satisfaction degree ，which made among PIVAS pharmacists （30），nurses（50）and patients （49）. RESULTS ：The upgraded label simplified part of the content and optimized the layout structure ，removed redundant content ，focused on the patient safety information that nurses needed to pay attention to when checking ，and added the marking of infusion sequence and precautions. By changing the barcode into two-dimensional code and adding hidden display function ，more information about drugs and rational drug use related to the infusion of patients was provided. Compared with original label ，after upgrading ，the recognition rate of new label scanning increased from 99.27％ to 99.96％，the scanning time reduced from 3 518.75 s/d to 2 110.10 s/d，and the scanning rate increased from 0.57 group/s to 0.95 group/s；the correct rate of drug delivery checking increased from 99.73％ to 99.91％，the time of drug delivery checking decreased from 5 423.55 s/d to 4 818.85 s/d，and the speed of drug delivery checking increased from 0.36 group/s to 0.41 group/s. The satisfaction degree of pharmacists ，nurses and patients were increased from 70.00％ to 93.33％，from 62.00％ to 90.00％，from 20.40％ to 89.80％，respectively. CONCLUSIONS：The design and upgrading of infusion labels can improve the working efficiency of staff ，and improve the quality of pharmaceutical care and nursing care ， and satisfaction， promote the improvement on the safety and effectiveness of intravenous medication for patients.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To improve the automation and information level of Pharmacy intravenous admixture service (PIV-AS),and provide reference for the PIVAS development. METHODS:Related functions of DS8000 intelligent sorting system and its effect of PIVAS were introduced;work environment,workflow,work efficiency,labor intensity and sorting error before and af-ter the system application were compared. RESULTS:The application of intelligent sorting system achieved the automation of multi-ple links including reviewing,sorting,automatically counting,automatically generating hand-over lists of departments,statistical inquiring for related information in finished soft bag infusion sorting. Compared with manual sorting,it only covered less area, working environment was neat and orderly,workflow links was reduced (6 vs. 10),work time was shortened (average time for sorting per bag of infusion 13.53 s vs. 3.11 s),labor intensity was decreased,and work error rate was reduced (0.128‰ vs. 0.013‰);meanwhile,it improved the management for shading drugs,and achieved data analysis of PIVAS and management infor-mation. CONCLUSIONS:The application of DS8000 intelligent sorting system has improved the automation and information of PI-VAS,and promoted the construction and development of PIVAS.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for reducing the clinical return of finished infusions. METHODS:Interventions for clinical return of PIVAS finished infusions in our hospital were introduced,the return situation of finished infusions before(dur-ing 2013-2014)and after(during 2015-2016)intervention was compared,and intervention effects were evaluated. RESULTS:Our hospital intervened it by rationally selecting and using syringes,strengthening visible particle check of finished infusion before dis-tribution;optimizing the order of drug configuration,reasonably arranging the drug infusion sequence;strengthening the clean-up in work area before drug infusion,correctly using disinfectant;strictly implementing intravenous infusion associative operation, playing the role of pharmacists;cultivating good work habits,and strengthening teamwork,etc. Compared with before interven-tion,the return numbers of finished infusion were decreased by 41.2%,and reported loss amount reduced by 45.7%. The return caused by visibility particles,finished infusion oxidation discoloration after too long storage time,finished infusion leakage,contin-uous infusion of drugs compatibility,heterodyne error,improper drug configuration method in packaging to the ward,improper use of disinfectant before infusion decreased by 25.3%,46.9%,39.4%,77.8%,73.9%,75.0%,100%,respectively. CONCLU-SIONS:Intervening the return of finished infusion can reduce the return numbers and drug waste.
