導致調劑疏失的原因中,以藥名或發音類似所佔比率最高。本研究主要目的為開發無線射頻技術為基礎之調劑輔助系統,減少因藥物外觀或藥名相似所造成的人為調劑疏失。此外,還提供事件記錄及即時影像藥典弁遄C其次,本研究以Davis(1989)「科技接受模式」為基礎,建構未來藥師使用本研究開發之調劑輔助系統之行為意願模式,藉以探討電腦自我效能、認知易用性、認知有用性及使用意願之間的因果關係,研究樣本為南部某科技大學藥學系96年應屆畢業生,分析工具為結構方程模式。
分析結果,「電腦自我效能」、「認知易用性」、「認知有用性」及「使用意願」之平均測量得分分別為3.66、3.64、3.59及3.66,而電腦自我效能透過「認知易用性」及「認知有用性」正向地影響「使用行為意願」。
研究結果顯示未來藥師都有相當程度的信心能夠以RFID為基礎之調劑輔助系統去執行處方調劑工作並對系統的易用性、有用性及使用意願皆抱持著正面、肯定的態度。 Medication errors occur most frequently when two or more drugs have a similar appearance (look like) or similar name (sound like), they could cause confusion in dispensing. This research developed a RFID dispensing support system for automated data capture of the prescription and medication identities and dispensing event recording, the system was also provided with additional functions such as “Incident Record” and “Pharmacopeia Online” for drugs’ image quick search.
Furthermore, this research based on Davis’s “Technology Acceptance Model, TAM” to predict would-be pharmacists’ acceptance of RFID dispensing support system, and investigate the associations hypothesized in the model. Data from a survey of would-be graduates of the Department of Pharmacy of one Technology University in South Taiwan were used to test the research model. The analytical tool was Amos 5.0 Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) program.
The measurement results of “computer self-efficacy”; “perceived ease of use”; “perceived usefulness” and “behavioral intention to use” were 3.66, 3.64, 3.59, and 3.66, respectively. The SEM results showed that “perceived ease of use” and “perceived usefulness” positively affected the impact of “computer self-efficacy” on “behavioral intention to use.”
These results make an implication that RFID dispensing support system could provide safeguards that are not possible with fully manual processes. Besides, pharmacist would be confident of his ability to use RFID dispensing support system in the future.
