Abstract

Objective: The purpose of this study was to compare the trend of medication errors caused by high alert drugs before and after updated high alert medication techniques were implemented. Methods: Data on medication mistakes was gathered from January to April 2017, and medication mistakes caused by high alert drugs were discovered. Analyzed and calculated the rate of high-alert medication mistakes. Develop strategies and re-implement them in the medication management process.   From May to August 2017, data on high-alert medication mishaps was gathered. The frequency and severity of high-alert drug errors were determined and estimated . Results: After creating and executing a high alert medication mistake prevention plan, the frequency of high alert medication mistakes was significantly decreased . Conclusion: The suggested procedures for preventing high-alert medication mistakes have been shown to minimise high-alert medication mistakes. However, the high warning medication error rate should be closely watched, and solutions should be evaluated on a regular basis for their efficacy .
