Abstract

Introduction and Objectives: There are many application steps in the preparation of medicines for patient streated in the hospital and there is a high probability of error occurrence. Severe complications may occur, which may result in permanent disability or death, although the cost of drug errors is high. Effective and reliable use of drugs is a multidisciplinary practice that requires mutual communication and cooperation between patients, nurses, physicians and pharmacists. The high rate of drug errors has led to the development of many systems to reduce and prevent this rate. The use of the drug during the drug application, the effect of reducing drug errors and how the nurses can benefit from this system in the process of drug application is explained in thelight of the literature is explained.Results: Pyxis Medstation, are safe stores located through out the patient care areas. This system allows the nurses to reduce the workload, to apply the drugs on time, to provide Access to only one drug in narcotic drugs with one Access drawer feature, and to prevent the wrong drug intake. These automated systems used in the distribution of dose dose medicine sand materials, we are confronted.Conclusion: Pyxis Medstation is just one of these systems, and it is thought that the use of it in clinical practice reduces drug error sand contributes to nursing practice. It is recommended to test and disseminate the results resulting from the use of Pyxis Medstation and similar systems with evidence-based applications.

Özet

Giriş ve Amaç: Hastanede tedavi gören hastaların ilaçlarının hazırlanmasında çok sayıda uygulama adımı vardır ve hata oluşma olasılığı fazladır. İlaç hatalarının maliyeti yüksek olmakla birlikte kalıcı sakatlık veya ölüm ile sonuçlanabilen ciddi komplikasyonlar gelişebilir. İlaçların etkili ve güvenilir bir şekilde kullanılması, hasta, hemşire, hekim ve eczacının karşılıklı iletişim ve iş birliğini gerektiren multidisipliner bir uygulamadır. İlaç hatası oranlarının yüksek olması beraberinde bu oranı azaltmak ve önlemek için çok sayıda sistem geliştirilmesine neden olmuştur. Bu derlemede Pyxis Medstation sisteminin; ilaç uygulama sürecinde kullanımı, ilaç hatalarını azaltmadaki etkisi ve hemşirelerin ilaç uygulama sürecinde bu sistemden nasıl yararlanabileceği literatür ışığında incelenerek açıklanmıştır.Bulgular: Pyxis Medstation, hasta bakım alanları boyunca bulunan güvenli depolardır. Bu sistem hemşirelerin iş yükünün azalmasına, ilaçların zamanında uygulanmasına, tek erişimli çekmece özelliği ile narkotik ilaçlarda sadece bir ilaca erişim sağlamasına, yanlış ilaç alımını engellemesine olanak sağlar. Birim doz ilaç ve malzeme dağıtımında kullanılan bu otomatik sistemler, hasta güvenliğini artıran, tasarruf sağlayan sistemler olarak karşımıza çıkmaktadır.Sonuç: Pyxis Medstation bu sistemlerden sadece biridir ve klinik uygulamada kullanımının ilaç hatalarını azalttığı ve hemşirelik uygulamalarına katkı sağladığı düşünülmektedir. Pyxis Medstation ve benzer sistemlerin kullanımlarından kaynaklanan sonuçların kanıta dayalı uygulamalarla test edilmesi ve yaygınlaştırılması önerilmektedir.
