護理師準備給藥。下列哪項護理作為最能體現「給藥安全權益」以預防用藥錯誤?
A nurse is preparing to administer medication to a client. Which nursing action best reflects the application of the 'Rights of Medication Administration' to prevent errors?
- AAsking the client to state their name and date of birth✓ 正解請病人自報姓名與出生日期
- BDocumenting the medication immediately after administration給藥後立即記錄藥物
- CVerifying the dose with another nurse before administration給藥前請另一位護理師核對劑量
- DChecking the medication label against the MAR three times三次查對藥物標籤與醫囑單(MAR)
在給藥的權益中,確認病人身分(Right Patient)是預防醫療錯誤最基礎且核心的步驟。使用兩種識別方式(姓名與出生年月日)可有效確保藥物投予正確的對象。即便確認了藥物名稱或劑量,若給錯對象仍會造成災難性後果,因此確認身分具備最高安全性優先級。
Among the rights of medication administration, verifying patient identity (Right Patient) is the most fundamental and core step for preventing medication errors. Using two identifiers (name and date of birth) effectively ensures medication is given to the correct person. Even if the drug name or dose has been verified, giving it to the wrong patient still has disastrous consequences; therefore patient identification holds the highest safety priority.
美台臨床皆強力推行兩種識別方式(姓名與出生年月日或病歷號),台灣電子化系統(PDA)普及後大幅降低錯誤。
