Medicine dispensing error early warning system

Abstract

The invention relates to a medicine dispensing error early warning system which consists of a control terminal, a code scanner, an alarm, a switch, a hand loop bar code and a server. There are many code scanners. One of the code scanners is installed on the computer of the local server to scan the dosing sheet and hand loop before dispensing, and scan again at the end of dispensing. The other scanners are arranged on the medicine rack, the installation position of the code scanner can be arranged according to the scanning convenience and typically arranged on the top of each layer of medicineracks, all the scanners on the medicine frame are connected with the control terminal through the COM hub, and the control terminal is connected with the server through the switch. Compared with the existing technology, the invention does not change the original manual dispensing mode, and the manual check is changed into a scanning code automatic check in the issuing phase, and then sent out after being confirmed to be correct, so that the drug dispensing error is fundamentally eliminated, and the medication safety of the patient is guaranteed.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention designs an early warning system for drug deployment errors, which can provide real-time early warnings for the deployment errors so as to prevent drug deployment errors, avoid medical accidents, and ensure the safety of medication for patients. Background technique [0002] In recent years, the problem of doctor-patient disputes has intensified, and the occurrence of medical adverse events will lead to doctor-patient disputes. Throughout the world, the total number of patient injury incidents caused by medical adverse events exceeds 1 million per year. Among them, medication errors are one of the main factors. The survey shows that the incidence of medication errors in various countries or regions is 4.9%-39.8%, of which 25% are caused by similar drug names, and 25% are caused by similar drug packaging. For pharmacists, medication errors can be avoided by reducing drug dispensing errors. According to the data, the measures taken by vari...

Most of these measures are proposed on the basis of manual deployment, based on human unreliability research, and errors are unavoidable in all manual operations

At present, the pharmacy department mainly avoids the occurrence of dispensing errors through double-checking and pharmacy automation. However, due to the existence of manual dosing and system errors in the pharmacy automation in the new technology, according to relevant literature, some hospitals have a dispensing error rate of 1 %, and when two people check and dispense medicines, deployment errors still occur from time to time

However, the initial investment in the automation construction of a general tertiary hospital is more than 5 million yuan, and the annual maintenance cost is about 800,000 to 1 million yuan, which is a huge investment.

Although pharmacy automation can save a certain amount of labor, due to its high operating costs, it is difficult to operate in small and medium-sized hospitals with underdeveloped economies or small outpatient volumes.

In addition, automatic dispensing machines are mostly aimed at boxed oral preparations, and the particularity of injection preparations limits its promotion.

Most of the medicines placed in the hospital are injection preparations, which are easily broken, and most of the injection preparations in the smallest package do not have barcodes. Therefore, there is an urgent need to study a drug deployment error early warning system with low Realize the judgment of the accuracy of the small package of the preparation without a barcode. This solution solves the key technical problem of automatic drug verification in the hospitalization business.
