Intravenous infusion may present the greatest preventable medication administration error risk to hospitalized patients. Smart pumps can provide clinical decision support at the bedside for nurses who are administering intravenously administered medications with the potential to significantly reduce medication errors and subsequent patient harm. However, implementations of smart pumps have yielded mixed results and mixed perceptions of their ability to actually decrease error. To realize the potential of smart pumps, there must exist a clear understanding of how these devices are being integrated into healthcare organizations, specifically nursing practice. The purpose of this article was to describe current smart pump evaluation studies and to suggest areas of future evaluation focus.
静脉输液可能给住院患者带来最大的可预防用药错误风险。智能输液泵可为床边管理静脉用药的护士提供临床决策支持,这有可能显著减少用药错误及后续对患者的伤害。然而,智能输液泵的应用效果不一,人们对其实际减少错误能力的看法也各不相同。为了实现智能输液泵的潜力,必须清楚了解这些设备如何融入医疗保健机构,特别是护理实践中。本文旨在描述当前智能输液泵评估研究情况,并提出未来评估重点领域。
