With the adoption of an automated IV workflow management system in our cleanroom, we have realized significant safety improvements and optimized PN operations. Learn how this automation can be leveraged to avoid common roadblocks and deliver measurable improvements:
- Consolidate information from both EHR label and PN preparation label to a single bag label, reducing risk of labeling errors, a particular risk for patients with similar names
- Automate the preparation process for dilution stock syringes to simplify documentation, a laborious task that can result in late or missing documentation
- Leverage reporting features to provide more accurate charge transfer within the health system
- Take advantage of remote verification to remove pharmacists from the cleanroom and refocus their efforts on other operational tasks surrounding PN preparation and distribution
