Time-saving impact of two generation model chemotherapy compounding robots on pharmacists’ daily workflow: A long-term evaluation
< 0.001). The compounding times for both robots were similar.ConclusionsThis is the first study to demonstrate that two robots from different generations provide significant, long-term time-saving effects on pharmacists' workflow. The effect with a currently available anticancer robot, ChemoRo, is estimated to create approximately 0.8 full-time equivalents. Thus, their implementation in anticancer drug preparation will be increasingly vital for advancing pharmacist work efficiency and productivity.
