| Popis: | Fatal chemotherapy overdoses at prestigious institutions have prompted extensive reviews of policies and procedures in medical centers throughout the country. Improving medication use systems for chemotherapy requires a comprehensive multidisciplinary approach. A process to develop a medical center policy on chemotherapy based on the medication use model adopted by the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations will be discussed. This will include the prescribing, preparing, dispensing, administering, and monitoring process as well as quality improvement systems. Pharmacy information systems enhancements that safeguard patients are also discussed including maximum dose checks and specific dosing algorithms for bone marrow transplant patients. |
