Hospitals can improve care quality and reduce costs by integrating total quality management and continuous quality improvement into drug use evaluations. This creates performance indicators for medication systems, using heparin dosing as a model.

Area of Science:

  • Healthcare Management
  • Pharmaceutical Sciences
  • Quality Improvement

Background:

  • Healthcare providers face economic and competitive pressures.
  • There is a need for improved care quality and cost reduction.
  • Traditional drug use evaluation needs enhancement.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop critical performance indicators for medication systems.
  • To integrate quality management techniques into drug use evaluation.
  • To demonstrate the application of these indicators using heparin dosing.

Main Methods:

  • Integrating total quality management (TQM) and continuous quality improvement (CQI) into drug use evaluation.
  • Developing critical performance indicators for medication systems.
