Elaboración de manual de reconstitución, conservación y administración de medicamentos parenterales para los servicios de hospitalización del Hospital General “Homero Castanier” de la ciudad de Azogues

Abstract

The development of a manual for the processes of reconstitution, conservation and administration of parenteral drugs is essential to ensure the safety and efficacy of medical care. The main objective of the study was to develop a manual for the reconstitution, conservation and administration of parenteral drugs for the hospitalization services of the General Hospital "Homero Castanier Crespo" in the city of Azogues. Extensive observations and evaluations were carried out to assess the conditions of reconstitution, conservation and administration of these drugs. This stage provided a clear focus for the development of the manual, which made it possible to identify areas for improvement and challenges associated with existing practices. Hospital Homero Castanier Crespo will benefit from the successful implementation of the manual, as it establishes evidence-based guidelines aligned with national and international standards, serves as a starting point to standardize processes, reduce risks and improve patient safety by specifically addressing the areas of reconstitution, storage and administration. The manual for reconstitution, conservation and administration of parenteral drugs is positioned as an essential instrument for the achievement of safe, consistent and efficient practices in the preparation and administration of parenteral therapies at the Homero Castanier Hospital in Azogues.
