Most hospitals have a computerized CIVAS that is integrated into the unit-dose distribution system. Preparations handled in these units include cytotoxic drugs, antibiotics, parenteral nutrition, other drugs, and therapy with fluids (Fig. 4). References to Spanish articles dealing with recommendations for managing these units can be found in the bibliography.Protocols must include every procedure carried out in the unit, from preparation to identification, hazard handling, waste treatment, and so on. In Spain, admixtures and nutritional preparations are normally prepared by pharmacy nurses supervised by pharmacists. [Pg.458]
