ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE To provide a reference for establishing an automatic checking mode and improving the checking efficiency of the unit dose dispensing system of oral drugs in hospital. METHODS The automatic checking process reengineering team was established in our hospital. ECRSI method was adopted to sort out the verification process and mode of drug bags for the unit dose formula of our hospital through five principles of eliminating, combining, rearranging, simplifying and increasing, and the hardware series problem and the problem of excessive system false-positive proportion were optimized. The drug bags for the unit dose formula were randomly selected from 10 wards, the efficiency and external error rates of manual check and automatic checking mode before and after optimization were compared, and the false-positive reporting failure in automatic checking mode was also compared before and after optimization. RESULTS After the establishment of the automatic checking mode of the unit dose formula for oral drugs, the average checking time of drug bags was significantly shorter than that of manual checking mode in the other 8 wards except for cardiovascular and renal departments (P<0.05). After the optimization of the automatic checking mode, the average checking time of drug bags in all wards was significantly shorter than that in manual checking mode (P<0.05). Compared with before optimization of the automatic checking mode, the average checking time of drug bags was shortened by 0.43 s, and the average checking time of drug bags in half of the wards was shortened significantly (P<0.05). At the same time, the false-positive proportion decreased from 96.83% before optimization to 92.76% after optimization (P<0.05). The external error rate dropped from 0.039‰ in manual checking mode to 0.019‰ before optimization and 0.015‰ after optimization (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS Based on ECRSI method, the automatic checking mode for the unit dose dispensing system of oral drugs can effectively reduce the average checking time of drug bags, reduce external error and improve the work efficiency of pharmacists.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE: To provide reference for improving emergency capacity of the hospital pharmacy department in response to the novel coronavirus pneumonia (COVID-19) epidemic. METHODS :According to the related regulations and requirements of Law of the People ’s Republic of China on the Prevention and Control of Infectious Diseases ,combined with the situation of COVID- 19 epidemic prevention and control ,and management experience of relevant hospitals ,on the basis of in-depth analysis of drug supply and quality assurance ,drug dispensing management ,provision of clinical pharmaceutical services and other related material support of hospital pharmacy department,integrated emergency management model was constructed for COVID- 19 epidemic prevention and control ,and the precautions and response measures of each link were sorted out. RESULTS :Integruted emergency management mode for COVID-19 epidemic prevention and control in hospital pharmacy department included but was not limited to human resource management,drug and disinfection products supply management (mainly including key treatment drugs and disinfection product list formulation,control,inventory increase ,etc.);drug dispensing management (mainly including prescription ,pharmacy window , planning quantitative reserve , drug return , etc.);clinical pharmaceutical care management (mainly including providing pharmaceutical information support ,online pharmaceutical service ,monitoring drug safety ,etc.);personnel protection and disinfection (mainly including personnel protection ,environment and window ,equipment and container ,paper prescription disinfection,etc.);special management of donated drugs ;prevention and control knowledge training ;pharmaceutical education and scientific research management ,etc. CONCLUSIONS :The integrated emergency management model for epidemic prevention and control is helpful for hospital pharmacy to manage public health emergencies. During the outbreak of COVID- 19,hospital pharmacy department should start integrated emergency management mode for epidemic prevention and control ,strengthen the risk control of each link ,and play a good role in the key functional departments in the special period.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To discuss the best hospital online purchase mode.METHODS:3 modes of online purchase were compared in the way of graphic and grid illustrations by referring to relevant literature and evaluating our own experience.RESULTS:Each online purchase mode has its own special characteristics,and hospitals can make their decisions according to the information capacity of themselves and their information system suppliers.CONCLUSION:Online purchase modes are more advantageous than traditional modes,so it should be applied widely.
