Incorporação da tecnologia bomba inteligente: uma revisão bibliográfica

Abstract

Introduction: The smart infusion pump is a device capable of minimizing errors in the administration of medicines in a hospital environment. Objective: To synthesize scientific evidence on the effectiveness of drug library application in the prevention of errors, its incorporation and its use by professionals. Method: This is a literature review study. Studies published in the Scielo, Bireme, USP and UNESP databases in the 2013-2018 timeline were used, with emphasis on infusion pumps. Then, we extracted evidence on the safety, efficacy and effectiveness of drug libraries in reducing the occurrence of medication administration errors. From there, it was demonstrated what steps should be followed to properly incorporate this technology. Results: This study allowed us to analyze that smart infusion pumps are indispensable for the reality inside the hospital and also allowed to determine some steps that must be followed for an effective process of incorporation of this technology. Conclusion: The results of this study conclude that the incorporation Intelligent pump technology has a significant cost benefit because it minimizes programming misconceptions related to drug delivery.
