3PC-018 The advantage of automation in the preparation of chemotherapy drugs for the interception of errors

摘要

The preparation of antiblastic chemotherapy drugs is an activity of high clinical risk because an error in the preparation phase can result in severe damage to the patient. The robotic system APOTECAchemo has been in use in our centre since 2014. The system is not only able to intercept potential errors in the stage of preparation of therapies but is also equipped with software that records any potential errors to ensure continuous monitoring inside the antiblastic medication unit.
