| Povzetek: | Background. Cancer drugs are high risk drugs and medication errors in their prescribing, preparation and administration have serious consequences, including death. The importance of a multidisciplinary approach and the benefits of pharmacistsć contribution to cancer treatment to minimise risk have been established. However, the impact of services provided by pharmaciststo cancer patient care is poorly studied. This study explored the clinical interventions made by pharmacists in dispensing of chemotherapy doses, and evaluated pharmacistsć contribution to patient care. Methods. Pharmacists at the Chemotherapy Preparation Unit at a tertiary cancer centre in London were shadowed by two research pharmacists during the clinical screening of chemotherapy prescriptions and release of prepared drugs. An expert panel of pharmacy staff rated the clinical significance of the recordedinterventions. Results. Twenty-one pharmacistsć interventions were recorded during the screening or releasing of 130 prescriptions or drugs. ĆDrug and therapyĆ (38%), ĆclericalĆ (22%) and Ćdose, frequency and durationĆ (19%) related problems most often required an intervention, identifying areas in chemotherapy prescribing that need improvement. The proposed recommendations were implemented in 86% of the cases. Many recorded interventions (48%) were ranked to have had a Ćvery significantĆ influence on patient care. Conclusion. Clinical interventions made by pharmacists had a significant impact on patient care. The integration of pharmacistsć technical and clinical roles into dispensing of chemotherapy doses is required for providing high-quality cancer services. |
