      Antibiotic Mixing

      Studies indicate that the incidence of errors in prescribing, preparing and administering injectable medicines

      is about 101 per 1000 procedures1. Common types of error include using the wrong drug, incorrect calculations, inaccurate measurement of volumes, wrong diluent and poor aseptic technique1.

       

      Another risk for nurses is needlestick injury (NSI). A recent survey of more than 7500 Royal College of Nursing (RCN) members showed that 15% of nurses experienced a sharps injury in 2020 compared to 10% in 20082.
