Implementation of Medication-Related Technology and Its Impact on Pharmacy Workflow: Real-World Evidence Usability Study
This study provides significant evidence that the implementation of medication-related technologies, including ADC, BCMA, and SDC, effectively reduces dispensing errors in a hospital pharmacy setting. Specifically, we observed a substantial decrease in the average dispensing error rate across 3 stages of technology implementation. Importantly, this study appears to be the first to investigate the combined impact of these 3 specific technologies on dispensing error rates within a hospital pharmacy.
