加護病房中,因疾病嚴重度偏高,高警訊藥物使用頻繁,單位若無完善之管理機制及護理人員正確的用藥知識,易造成給藥的錯誤。故本專案針對高警訊藥物使用作業進行改善,期盼能防範用藥疏失之發生,提升用藥安全。 經由本專案資料分析結果發現:(1)護理人員對高警訊藥物使用認知應加強(2)單位高警訊藥物用藥作業流程及儲存辦法不明確(3)單位高警訊藥物用藥安全無稽核辦法。依據問題分析、擬定改善措施爲:1.製作高警訊藥物手冊2.舉辦在職教育3.建立雙重稽核機制4.製作藥物資訊公佈欄5.高警訊藥物警示標籤6.制定藥物認知題庫定期稽核。經由此專案:護理人員對高警訊藥物認知測試由平均63.5提升至90分,制定高警訊藥物使用流程與稽核辦法,有效管理高警訊藥物,維護病人用藥安全提升照護品質。
