This specimen study describes four worldwide issues faced by hospitals and how the DVx has been used at all phases of the medication lifecycle to write and resolve those issues for a sample hospital (Hospital A). Hospital A faced four main issues related to medication use and misuse within their systems and staff. These issues could potentially lead to reduction in patient safety, costing the hospital both money and reputation. The issues were: Inconsistent quality warranty on medication receipt/creation and medication labelling practices (noncompliance with National Patient Safety Goal 03.04.01) Verifying staff training Diversion Verifying waste This paper will show how Hospital A used the DVx to reduce financing and modernize consistency, patient safety, and staff training. Figure 1: How using the DVx in the pharmacy and hospital floor fits into the hospital medication lifecycle Inconsistent QualityWarrantyand Medication Labelling Practices National Patient Safety Goal 03.04.01 states a hospital must “label all medications, medication containers, and other solutions on and off the sterile field in perioperative and other procedural settings”. Unfortunately, Hospital A staff was not pursuit NPSG 03.04.01 and had no standard method to perform quality warranty on the inconsistently labelled contents. The pursuit should unchangingly be on the container label: medication name, strength, quantity, diluent and volume, and expiration stage when not used within 24 hours, or expiration time when expiration occurs in less than 24 hours. Because inconsistent labelling is moreover an indicator for inconsistent contents, patient safety issues were an ongoing problem for Hospital A. Figure 2: Inconsistent content labeling Figure 3: Actual results of the DVx chemical wringer of multiple samples of Fentanyl injection from a hospital with inconsistent quality warranty and labelling practices. Figure 4: Actual results of the DVx chemical wringer of multiple samples of Fentanyl injection from a hospital with well managed quality warranty and standard labelling practices. By subtracting the DVx to the pharmacy and hospital floor, Hospital A was worldly-wise to perform firsthand and resulting quality warranty on medications received, created, used, and discarded. With the DVx, within seconds, Hospital A staff can now personize the medication within a container matches the label: in the pharmacy, when medication is received from a new or suspect vendor in the pharmacy, without medication is compounded or diluted on the hospital floor, surpassing a medication is administered to the patient in the pharmacy, surpassing the medication is discarded With the DVx, Hospital A can hands manage their quality warranty and enforce standard labelling practices. Patient safety is improved and resulting labelling now helps to ensure resulting container contents. Verifying Staff Training Staff training is an important piece of maintaining standard labelling practices and well managed quality warranty programs. When Hospital A recognized their issues with inconsistent quality warranty and medication labelling practices, they realized they needed a way to verify that their staff was getting well-constructed training and pursuit weightier practices. By using the results of the DVx analyses, Hospital A was worldly-wise to pinpoint staff training needs. This led to a revamping of their staff training to use the DVx, which helped write several issues, including medication labelling practices. Figure 5: Sample DVx staff training wringer pinpointing staff training needs Diversion Diversion can be an issue in any hospital. In general, random samples of containers are sent to the DYNALABS cadre lab for testing. This helps to write diversion, but does not ensure the compromised containers will be tested and diversion confirmed. With the DVx, any suspect container, or plane every container can be tested, ensuring that diversion will be discovered. Hospital A discovered they had a problem, when the Director of Pharmacy noticed that a supposedly unused vial of morphine had too much liquid in the vial, and the tamper-resistant cap was removed. Figure 6:Tenancysample (left) and diverted sample (right) By using the DVx, the Director of Pharmacy was worldly-wise to compare the contents of a tenancy sample versus the suspected diverted sample. Within seconds diversion was confirmed. Figure 7: DVx chemical wringer of the samples in Figure 6: confirming diversion There was no need for the expense and time of sending multiple samples offsite for confirmation of diversion. Only the compromised container need be sent to the DYNALABS cadre lab for a documented test result that will hold up in a magistrate of law. The Director of Pharmacy can quickly follow-up by checking other medications and containers for diversion, and uncork the process of finding the culprit. Waste Verification Discarding unused medication increases hospital costs. It can moreover be a source of diversion. Hospital A had no way to personize whether the medication discarded matched the medication used (was diverted). With the DVx, Hospital A was worldly-wise to personize the contents of the medication discarded matched the medication dispensed and used. In addition, Hospital A could personize the percentage of medication wasted versus what was drawn into the syringe. Figure 8: DVx chemical wringer of waste indicates Hospital A discarded the correct percentage compared to the medication dispensed.
