OncoSafety Remote Control®
Safety and traceability in onco-hematological treatment administration
OncoSafety Remote Control® is a technology supporting nursing during the administration of Onco-hematological treatments. OncoSafety Remote Control® daily receives from HIS (Hospital Information System) the information regarding treatments to be administered by the nurse for each patient. The HIS information includes administration conditions such as patient name, rate, volume, time, order of administration ... etc. The nursing staff will proceed to administer these treatments received electronically from the HIS, following the established order/sequence introduced in HIS to avoid medication errors and ensuring total traceability. The wireless devices of OncoSafety Remote Control® with barcode readers will support the nurse by matching patient and chemo drug and order, according to information set in HIS. Additionally, OncoSafety Remote Control® will receive information (such as volume infused and time lapse) from the infusion pump software to create records. Nurses can also record side effects occurred during treatment.
