Authors’ Conclusions
Both parties agreed on decreased phone communications
and increased understanding of drug distribution process.
(Thompson DF, Kaczmarek ER, Hutchinson RA. Attitudes of pharmacists and nurses toward
interprofessional relations and decentralized pharmaceutical services. Amer Journ Hosp
Pharm 1988 Feb;45:345-51.)
Authors’ Conclusions:
With the satellite pharmacy, pharmacists spend more time
as ‘therapeutic consultants.’ Therefore more attention is
given to patient care.

Pre-Survey Post-Survey
Time of survey
The pilot project demonstrates the effectiveness of
pharmacist-nurse interaction as shown in the literature
reviewed.
Improvement in results of nurse communication level
satisfaction suggests a starting point to develop
successful interpersonal relationships between both
parties.
Nurses verbalized appreciation for the form that will
be utilized for the decentralized system
Implication of the form (Figure 1) is believed to:
Decrease in nurse waiting time
Decrease in order duplications
Increase nurse involvement with patient care

IV Delivery System
The decentralized system has not been fully implemented
and presents certain limitations:
Lack of data on system effectiveness
Lack of data on technical support for the new
system
Surveys utilized in this pilot project presented some
limitations, in that there was:
Lack of quantitative data
Small sample size
Time restraints: five weeks for pilot project
External validity questionable due to limited pilot
units utilized in the study

In Sophia Children’s Hospital in the Netherlands, a three
month study was conducted comparing the efficiency of
drug distribution between a ward stock system and a
decentralized pharmacy.
The average time was measured for the distribution
process such as preparing IVs and administering the
medications.
Study outcomes reported by authors:
Nurses spend more time (average 4 minutes) than
pharmacy technicians (average 2.42 minutes) preparing
medications.
POST-SURVEY
“I have to reorder IV drips often over 2-3
hours before the scheduled time.”

Attitudinal surveys of nurses and pharmacists before and
after installation of satellite pharmacies were conducted, 9
months apart, at a 600-bed University of Illinois hospital.
Survey categories: role conflict, ambiguities,
communication obstacles and asymmetries
Study outcomes reported by authors:
Only 5 out of 13 pharmacists’ satisfaction scores improved
significantly.
In contrast, 10 out of 15 nurses’ satisfaction scores
improved significantly.

REGARDING NURSE ATTITUDES
Communicated with nurses and administered
survey (09/29/04) to assess their attitudes
about the current system
Sample size = 10 nurses/nurse managers
Shared new information with the nurses about
the outcomes of this pilot project, including the
new IV reorder form and the future of the

Administered post-survey to assess any

Timely Delivery of IV Drip Medications
IV drip delivery system
In the current IV delivery system, there was a decrease
(50% to 20%) in rating 1-3 and an increase (20% to
50%) in rating 7-10
Timely delivery of medications:
20% agreed in post-survey about timely delivery of
medications
20% strongly disagreed and 50% disagreed in presurvey while 10% strongly disagreed and 40%
disagreed in timely delivery of medications
For IV medication delivery wait time, there was a 20%
increase in 16-30 minutes, 30% increase in 46 minutes –
1 hour, and a 50% decrease for > 1 hour.
Communication level between nurses and pharmacists
40% increase in nurse rating of communication level = 4.
No nurses rated the current communication level as 5 (no
changes needed)
Decentralized system implementation
In pre-survey, 10% stated “MAYBE” but in post-survey,
100% agreed on benefits of implementing the
decentralized system

Specific Study Objectives
Creation of an IV drip form will improve
medication delivery time
Improving nurse attitudes towards
pharmacists will lead to successful
interprofessional relationships
“A new decentralized system will provide better
and more efficient delivery of medications.”
“Most of my IVs come to the unit on
time.”

Background Information
Pilot project conducted is the primary step
in the decentralization process
More efficient IV drip delivery time should:
Improve patient outcomes
Decrease medication errors
Be cost-effective
06:0

Improving IV drip delivery time is
important because it improves patient
health outcomes and nurse-patient
contact time
Improving communication between
nurses and pharmacists is vital for
Increased satisfaction between
health care professionals

After reviewing the existing literature available
and conducting the pilot project, a
decentralized system should in long-term:
Benefit patients
Benefit health care providers (HCPs)
Improve working relationships between
HCPs
Provide higher quality patient care
Follow-up on the:
Nurses’ attitudes toward the pharmacists
Interpersonal relationships between
nurses and pharmacists

system once implemented
