Abstract:
In order to optimize the management mode of drug dispensing in inpatient pharmacy, in April 2023, a tertiary hospital constructed and initiated the whole-process intelligent drug dispensing mode in inpatient pharmacy. By jointly applying hospital information system, pre-approval system, paperless dispensing traceability system, and intelligent distribution system, a standardized business process of " pharmacist confirms orders → medication retrieval/verification/packaging → logistics distribution → nurse verification/dispensing" had been established, achieving visibility, controllability, and traceability of the entire drug dispensing process, ensuring drug safety of wards. Before the implementation of this mode (June 2022 to January 2023), the average number of dispensing orders per month in the hospital′s inpatient pharmacy was 8 498, with an error rate of 3.23% and an average completion time of 15.50 min per order; After implementation (June 2023 to January 2024), the average number of orders per month was 10 099, with an error rate reduced to 0.63%, and the completion time for each order was shortened to 10.10 min. The application of the whole-process intelligent drug dispensing mode had reduced dispensing error rates, and improved work efficiency, which could provide references for other public hospitals to promote intelligent drug dispensing.
