SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DETECTING PRESCRIPTION, TRANSCRIPTION AND ADMINISTRATION ERRORS IN DRUG ADMINISTRATION

摘要

A method of administration of a drug or drug regime to a potentially unlimited number of drug recipients, the method comprising the steps of; a) providing a prescription for at least one drug in a drug dosing regime to a drug recipient, b) prior to administration of the at least one drug, inputting drug parameters and drug recipient profile particulars for a particular drug recipient into a computer program c) allowing the program to compare the prescription parameters to a set of safety parameters to determine if the parameters fall within predetermined safety limits thereby avoiding over-doses or under-doses of prescribed drug dosages.
