How to get over with medication errors underestimation? Improving indices of medication errors with focus on intravenous medications in hematopoietic stem cell transplantation setting; a direct observation study

Medication errors frequently occur during the preparation and administration of IV medications in the HSCT setting. Using precise detection methods, denominators, and checklists, we identified the most error-prone steps during this process, for which there is an urgent need to implement effective preventive measures. Our findings can help plan targeted preventive measures and investigate their effectiveness, specifically in HSCT settings.

Abstract

Medication errors frequently occur during the preparation and administration of IV medications in the HSCT setting. Using precise detection methods, denominators, and checklists, we identified the most error-prone steps during this process, for which there is an urgent need to implement effective preventive measures. Our findings can help plan targeted preventive measures and investigate their effectiveness, specifically in HSCT settings.
