Publikation: Bidrag til tidsskrift › Tidsskriftartikel › Forskning › fagfællebedømt
Since 2004, a web-based reporting system enables monitoring of dispensing errors in all Swedish pharmacies. The adoption of this system was followed by an overall increase in reports, mainly explained by the dispensing of medicines of improper strength. In 2006 an intervention was implemented, aimed at reducing these errors. The objective of this study was to assess the impact of the intervention on the number of errors.
