ABSTRACT Objectives: to compare the effectiveness of the decentralized automated drug dispensing system with pockets. Methods: an effectiveness study based on a systematic review guided by the question: for patients admitted to hospital units, is the use of automated drug dispensing effective for reducing medication errors when compared to manual unit dose dispensing? The evidence was evaluated by the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation and the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses instrument, used in the report. Results: the sample was composed of 15 studies and none of them directly compared both technologies; however, the meta-analysis showed that there is no difference in effectiveness between them [OR 1.03 95%CI (0,12 - 8,99)]. Conclusions: the conclusion is that the recommendation in favor of the automated dispensing system is weak.

AbstractMedication Error is an event that not only can harm the patient but also may endanger the safety of patients conducted by health workers, especially for patient safety. This study aims to examine and analyze the role of factors that contribute to the nurse's role in preventing medication error in hospitals Awal Bros Batam. This research method is quantitative using observational analytic study design to examine the relationship between the two variables studied. This research was conducted on a sample of 73 nurses at the Awal Bros Batam inpatient room consisting of six general rooms and two high-care units. The results of this study indicate that the statistical test showed p-value = 0.042; thus, there is no significant correlation between the perception of the workload with the role of nurses. There is a significant relationship of knowledge to the role of nurses p-value = 0.014, no significant association between the attitudes of nurses with nurse's role p-value = 0.009. The further recommendation to the hospital improves medication safety at the inpatient ward Awal Bros Batam Hospital, to use unit-dose dispensing system (UDD), as well as the use of electronic in the form of barcodes. Keywords: The role of the nurse, the perception of the workload, medication error AbstrakMedication error adalah peristiwa yang tidak hanya dapat membahayakan pasien tetapi juga dapat membahayakan keselamatan pasien yang dilakukan oleh petugas kesehatan, terutama untuk keselamatan pasien. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menguji dan menganalisis faktor-faktor yang berkontribusi terhadap peran perawat dalam mencegah Medication error di rumah sakit Awal Bros Batam. Metode penelitian ini adalah kuantitatif dengan menggunakan desain penelitian analitik observasional untuk menguji hubungan antara kedua variabel yang diteliti. Penelitian ini dilakukan pada sampel 73 perawat di ruang rawat inap di Rumah Sakit Awal Bros Batam yang terdiri dari enam kamar umum dan dua unit perawatan tinggi. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa uji statistik menunjukkan p-value = 0,042; dengan demikian, terdapat hubungan yang signifikan antara persepsi beban kerja dengan peran perawat, terdapat hubungan yang signifikan  antara pengetahuan dengan peran perawat (p-value = 0,014), dan terdapat yang signifikan antara sikap perawat dengan peran perawat (p-value = 0,009). Rekomendasi lebih lanjut ke rumah sakit meningkatkan keamanan obat di bangsal rawat inap Rumah Sakit Awal Bros Batam, untuk menggunakan unit-dosis dispensing system (UDD), serta penggunaan elektronik dalam bentuk barcode.Kata kunci:  :  The role of the nurse, the perception of the workload, medication error

 Abstrak                                            Latar belakang: Unit Dose Dispensing (UDD) adalah metode pelayanan farmasi dimana sediaan obat oral dan injeksi pada pasien diberikan dalam bentuk dosis tunggal. Kelebihan dari metode UDD adalah terdapat profil pengecekan obat untuk pasien sehingga insiden medication error tahap dispensing dapat dihindarkan atau dikoreksi terlebih dahulu. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui perbandingan dispensing error di ruangan dengan sistem UDD dan non UDD di RSM Ahmad Dahlan Kediri.Metode: Penelitian ini bersifat observasi analitik studi komparasi dengan desain cross-sectional pada unit rawat inap dengan sistem UDD dan Non UDD di RSM Ahmad Dahlan Kediri selama periode 15-17 November 2018.Hasil: Didapatkan jumlah sampel penelitian sebanyak 336 sampel dengan distribusi 147 (43,2%) sampel dari ruang Non UDD dan 189 (56,8%) sampel dari ruangan UDD. Terjadi dispensing error pada 58 sampel yaitu sebanyak 39 (67%) sampel di ruang Non UDD dan 19 (33%) sampel di ruang UDD. Dispensing error meliputi pemberian etiket yang tidak lengkap sebanyak 40 (69%) kejadian, adanya pemberian obat di luar instruksi sebanyak 15 (24%) kejadian, dan omission atau obat yang kurang sebanyak 4 (7%) kejadian. Pada uji chi-square didapatkan p-value 0,009 (<0,05) yang berarti terdapat perbedaan yang bermakna pada kejadian dispensing error di ruangan dengan sistem UDD dan Non UDD.Kesimpulan: Medication error pada fase dispensing di unit rawat inap dengan sistem UDD lebih rendah dibandingkan dengan unit rawat inap dengan sistem Non UDD.Kata kunci: Dispensing error, Unit Dose Dispensing (UDD), FarmasiAbstractBackground: Unit Dose Dispensing (UDD) is a pharmaceutical service method wherein oral and injection preparations in patients are given in the form of a single dose. The advantage of the UDD method is that there is a profile of drug checking for patients so that the incidence of medication errors in the dispensing phase can be avoided or corrected first. This study was aimed to determine the comparison of dispensing errors in the ward with the UDD and non UDD systems at Ahmad Dahlan Kediri Hospital.Method: This research is analytical observation comparative study with cross-sectional design in the ward with a system of UDD and Non UDD in Ahmad Dahlan Muhammadiyah Hospital Kediri for the period November 15-17th 2018.Result: There were 336 total samples with 147 (43.2%) distribution from Non-UDD ward and 189 (56.8%) from UDD ward. There were 58 dispensing errors namely 39 (67%) samples in the Non-UDD ward and 19 (33%) samples in the UDD ward. Dispensing errors include the administration of incomplete etiquette of 40 (69%) samples, the presence of drugs outside the instructions of 15 (24%) samples, and omission or less of drugs of 4 (7%) samples. In the chi-square test the p-value is 0.009 (<0.05) which means that there were significant differences in dispensing error in the UDD and Non-UDD ward.Conclusion: Dispensing error in the ward with UDD system is lower compared to the ward with Non-UDD system.Key words: Dispensing error, Unit Dose Dispensing (UDD), Pharmacy
