Quality assurance is an ongoing process whereby procedures are reviewed constantly and changed if necessary to improve the quality of patient care and safety. Since most compounding in hospitals is for off-label uses and is usually considered high risk, high volume, or problem prone, close monitoring and documentation of compounding activities play vital roles in a quality-assurance program. Hospital compounders must be diligent in following all of the standards of the United States Pharmacopeia and Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations and the guidelines of the American Society of Health-System Pharmacists to develop and maintain a good quality-assurance program. All compounders should strive to dispense high-quality preparation to provide the best patient care.
质量保证是一个持续的过程,通过该过程不断审查程序,并在必要时进行更改,以提高患者护理质量和安全性。由于医院中的大多数配制是用于超说明书用药,通常被认为具有高风险、高用量或易于出现问题,因此对配制活动进行密切监测和记录在质量保证计划中起着至关重要的作用。医院配制人员必须勤勉地遵循美国药典、医疗机构评审联合委员会的所有标准以及美国卫生系统药师协会的指南,以制定和维护一个良好的质量保证计划。所有配制人员都应努力调配高质量的制剂,以提供最佳的患者护理。
