The pharmaceutical services provided to the outpatient surgery center of a health maintenance organization (HMO) are described. The satellite pharmacy is managed by the nearby central pharmacy. The satellite pharmacist prepares and dispenses all needed medications and i.v. admixtures, maintains the inventory of all drugs and i.v. supplies, and supplies clinical and drug information. The pharmacist ensures that i.v. admixtures are made according to guidelines, that drug interactions and drug allergies are guarded against, and that each patient has access to oral pain medications and medication counseling while still in the recovery room. The tighter inventory control created by this arrangement helps to reduce costs, and the surgical nursing staff has been relieved of many medication-related activities. The presence of the pharmacist in the surgery center also allows for more accurate documentation of controlled-drug dispensing. The presence of a pharmacist in the surgery center has ensured strict control of drug use and enabled nurses to spend more time on direct patient care.
本文描述了为健康维护组织（HMO）的门诊手术中心提供的药学服务。卫星药房由附近的中心药房管理。卫星药剂师负责准备和分发所有所需药物及静脉输液混合剂，维护所有药品和静脉输液用品的库存，并提供临床和药物信息。药剂师确保静脉输液混合剂按照指南配制，防范药物相互作用和药物过敏情况，并且确保每位患者在仍处于恢复室时就能获得口服止痛药物和用药咨询服务。这种安排所带来的更严格的库存控制有助于降低成本，并且手术护理人员从许多与药物相关的活动中解脱出来。药剂师在手术中心的存在还使得管制药品分发的记录更加准确。药剂师在手术中心的存在确保了对药物使用的严格控制，并使护士能够有更多时间直接护理患者。
