Safety

KIRO® Oncology

 Robotic compounding is expected to decrease the global risk of failures due to less human intervention in some critical tasks(16)

 

Patient Safety:

Robotic compounding compared to manual compounding significantly reduces compounding error rates (1,11%) (9%) from a total of 52.852 IV chemotherapy doses(19)

Increases patient safety through enhanced accuracy(19)

User Safety:

Decreased chemotherapy waste and drug exposure for employees(19)

Significantly reduced chemical risk by decreasing workplace contamination level(14)

Potential role avoiding stress injuries related to the use of high-volume syringes(16)

 

KIRO® Fill

“Satisfactory results when compounding sterile preparations using KIRO® Fill and positive feedback received from nurses, have led us to incorporate new batches, such as morphine syringes(31)

 

The average dose accuracy errors for syringes (n=2813) and infusion bags (n=395) were 0,23% and -0,09%, respectively(31)

Results from sterility tests demonstrated the absence of microbial growth in all tested preparations(31)

Operator’s safety is guaranteed as the drug levels measured in environmental air are below the OEL (Occupational Exposure Limits)(28)

The results demonstrate that the automatic compounding of sensitizing drugs in KIRO® Fill ensures patient’s safety by avoiding cross-contamination of drugs in subsequent compounded batches(28)

The results show that the use of Kiro Fill avoid adverse reactions in patients with hypersensitivity to β-lactam antibiotics and other drugs(28)
