Advancing Outpatient Dialysis Safety: Integrating Medication Scanning Technology.
Key takeaways
Nurses at outpatient dialysis centers describe adding barcode scanning to check medicines before they are given. The goal is fewer medicine mistakes for people on dialysis, who often take many drugs. This is a report on putting a safety process in place. The part we have gives no numbers showing whether errors went down, so there are no results yet.
