Pharmacy: Missions
• Supply drugs to the whole hospital(purchase stock management distribution) (purchase, stock management, distribution)
• Implement a full traceability of drugs until the administration to the patient
• Ensure a production and a personnalisedpreparation of drugs, when they are not available on the market
• Contribute to a safe and rational use of drugs

Drug medication process
• Support the teaching of drug
Drug selectionInterests of a restricted list
Support the teaching of drugpharmacotherapy to the physicians
• Limit the risk of errors by reducingthe number of differentdrugs available
• Favour an optimal Favour an optimal stock management
• Negociate attractive purchase conditions

Process organisations
• Global distributionThe pharmacy delivers boxes of drugs and nurses dispense individualtreatments from the ward stock
• Nominal or individual distribution Drug dispensing is performedat the pharmacy, for each patient,based on the prescription

Global or individual ?
• Individual distribution is more convenient in some conditions– Few prescription modifications (chronic care)
– Pharmacy close to the wards
• This doesn’t fit to HUG situation– Acute care in majority– Long distance between the pharmacy and some
wards (multi-sites hospital)

Implementation of IT in the medication process
Diogène 1 - 1978
Potential interests of IT
• To improve– The safety
by reducing the rate of errors and improving the reliability of controls
– The traceabilityby facilitating the registration of logs
– The efficiencyby increasing the working performance
– The communicationby connecting the different steps of the processes

Many questions before to start
• Positive impacts ?• New risks ?• New risks ?• Return on investment ?• System selection ?• Commercial or homemade ?• Interoperability ?• User’s training strategy ?• User s training strategy ?• Acceptability ?

Robotisation of drug distribution Efficiency
• Hypothesisd f kl d ti t d t 2 FTE– decrease of workload estimated to 2 FTE
• Results– Reality seems to confirm this estimation– Real workload decrease is actually measured…
• Return on investment (ROI)2– 2 FTE suppressed
– 3.1 year, without the operating costs– 5.4 year, with the operating costs
(amortization, maintenance contract)

Prerequisite to successfulIT implementation
• Electronic management of processesElectronic management of processes(CPOE, stocks, …)
• Technical infrastructure (hard-, soft-)
• Actors identification (caregivers, patients, drugs)
• Acceptability (patients, caregivers)
• Adaptation to processes• Adaptation to processes• Project leadership• Financing

Adaptation to processes• Reasons for workaround
– Process– Process• Training requirements• Process flow (administration of drug
before scanning, shortage of time)
– Technology• Hardware (performance of scanners)• Software (delays in response)• Barcode (difficulties in reading)
– Resistance• Communication• Changing role• Negative perception of IT
Van Onzenoort HA, Am J Health-Syst Pharm 2008;65:644Nanji KC, J Am Med Inform Assoc 2009;16:645
How to progress?
• Determine an institutional strategy and an implementation schedule taking into accountimplementation schedule, taking into account– the local organisation– the local culture– the expected return on investment
• Involve the different partners• Re-think the process organisation
(re-engineering)• Manage each projet independently, without
loosing the global vision

Conclusion
• The medication process at the hospital iscomplex and involves many differentcomplex and involves many differentprofessionals
• A clever organisation contributes to improvethe safety, the efficiency, the communication and the traceability
• IT take more and more importance in the i h h iprocess improvement approaches: their
implementation is necessary but is a challenge• Each hospital must determine a strategy, based
on the local context
