The development and implementation of a comprehensive unit dose distribution system for respiratory medications is described. Initially, an evaluation of carts and unit dose packaging materials for respiratory medications was conducted. Subsequent to the selection, a unit dose processing and packaging program was developed in accordance with the Respiratory Therapy Medical Director's Standard Treatment Orders. A 24-hour exchange system, separate but paralleling the already operational unit dose system, was implemented. The primary advantages attributed to the implementation of this system were 1) a decrease in potential respiratory medication order interpretation/transcription errors; 2) a decrease in the waste of medication solutions; 3) a decrease in potential preparation errors by the respiratory therapists; 4) standardization and accuracy of respiratory medication dosages; and 5) a more equitable method of charging patients.
本文描述了一种用于呼吸药物的综合单位剂量分配系统的开发与实施。最初，对呼吸药物的推车和单位剂量包装材料进行了评估。在完成选择后，根据呼吸治疗医学主任的标准治疗医嘱制定了单位剂量处理和包装程序。实施了一个24小时更换系统，该系统独立但与已运行的单位剂量系统并行。实施该系统的主要优点包括：1）潜在的呼吸药物医嘱解读/转录错误减少；2）药物溶液浪费减少；3）呼吸治疗师的潜在配制错误减少；4）呼吸药物剂量的标准化和准确性；5）一种更公平的患者收费方式。
