Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to evaluate the impact of smart pump interoperability on the frequency, type, and severity of errors in intravenous medication administration in a healthcare setting.
- Data was collected through observations of medication administration before and after implementing the smart pump system, showing a significant overall reduction in errors.
- The findings revealed a 16% decrease in medication administration errors, with notable reductions in expired and high-risk medication errors, though some error types still occurred, indicating a need for further research on optimizing technology use in this process.
