Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To construct a scientific and systematic quality control index system for intravenous medication admixture, so as to ensure the safety of drug use and improve the quality of medical service. METHODS Based on literature analysis and cross-sectional survey, an initial indicator framework was formulated. Opinions were then gathered through two rounds of Delphi expert consultations, and the expert authority coefficient and Kendall’s coefficient of concordance were calculated to evaluate the consistency. Ultimately, the analytic hierarchy process was employed to determine the weights of each indicator and test for consistency in order to establish a scientific and systematic quality control indicator system for intravenous medication admixture. RESULTS The study conducted two rounds of expert consultation with an average positive coefficient of 95.92% and an average authority coefficient of 0.983. In the second round of the Delphi consultation, the Kendall’s coefficients of concordance for the first-, second-, and third-level indicators were 0.306, 0.440, and 0.394, respectively, all significantly higher than those in the first round (0.211, 0.274, 0.379). The final quality control system for intravenous medication admixture consisted of 6 first-level indicators (personnel, medicines and consumables, facilities and equipment, process management, environmental hygiene, and outcomes), 17 second-level indicators (e.g., education and training, staffing structure, workload, medication management, consumables management, and equipment maintenance), and 44 third-level indicators (e.g., average daily workload per person, proportion of pharmacy professionals, competency assessment pass rate, work system assessment pass rate, continuing education frequency and pass rate, and medication inventory accuracy). CONCLUSIONS The quality control system for intravenous medication admixture developed in this study demonstrates strong authority and scientific rigor, providing a theoretical basis and practical tool for the standardized management of intravenous medication admixture quality in hospitals.
