Inpatient Medication Order Processing for BCMA (IHS). General Considerations. Active medication orders are basis of BCMA Orders do not appear o n BCMA VDL until verified How the order is finished affects what the Nurse sees in BCMA Start time of an order is important
E N D
General Considerations • Active medication orders are basis of BCMA • Orders do not appear on BCMA VDL until verified • How the order is finished affects what the Nurse sees in BCMA • Start time of an order is important • How the order is finished can impact med access from automated dispensing cabinets (Pyxis, Omnicell, etc– “profile” system) • All medication packages must be bar coded, either from the manufacturer or by the Pharmacy staff VA/IHS BCMA 2013/2014
Inpatient Ward Parameters DAYS UNTIL STOP FOR ONE-TIME: ? Enter the number of days a one-time order should last. The number can be from 1-100, however, it cannot exceed the number of days that standard orders last (DAYS UNTIL STOP DATE/TIME). DEFAULT START DATE CALCULATION: USE NOW AS DEFAULT // ?? This field allows the ward to tell the package how the default start date for orders should be calculated. The default may use the next admin time, the closest admin time, or the current time (now) as the default start date for Unit Dose and IV orders. Choose from: 0 USE CLOSEST ADMIN TIME AS DEFAULT 1 USE NEXT ADMIN TIME AS DEFAULT 2 USE NOW AS DEFAULT DEFAULT START DATE CALCULATION: USE NOW AS DEFAULT VA/IHS BCMA 2013/2014

Schedule Types – O vs OC VA/IHS BCMA 2013/2014
Sliding scale insulin • Continuous order – will remind nurse to check glucose as scheduled, documenting “0” units administered if no insulin required, or dose may be Held • PRN order – does not require administration documentation if none administered, but will require nurse to have an alternate process to schedule glucose checks VA/IHS BCMA 2013/2014
IV’s in BCMA • IVP/IVPB tab – shows IV push (finished in Unit dose) and IV piggybacks orders • IV tab – shows continuous infusion IV solutions (no “schedule”), “non-intermittent” syringe (PCA); • IVs will NOT appear on Missed Med Report since they are not “scheduled” • “one-time IV’s” will NOT go off profile after given (will go off profile when order expires • NO Last Action column – admin record part of each “bag” record • Barcode for IV bags consists of the patient’s IEN followed by a “V”, then a sequential number, calculated from the number of labels printed. • Ward stock IV bags – MUST be bar-coded, before delivery to wardsif none from manufacturer VA/IHS BCMA 2013/2014
IV’s in BCMA (cont’d) • Label printing – for Pharmacy compounded IV’s, once printed, that bag is “available” to nursing to administer, whether that bag is physically on the unit or not. • Nurse can only scan “available” bags-bags do not have to be scanned in sequence. • Labels reprintedin pharmacy – the previous barcode will not be available any longer on BCMA VDL • If NEW label is generated, the original barcode will remain available, but the available bag list will continue to grow. • “Cancel or Recycled Labels” - these labels are no longer available to nurses. As far as statistics, Cancel & Recycle will also “cancel” workload. “Destroy” label will not cancel workload. VA/IHS BCMA 2013/2014
IV’s in BCMA (cont’d) • Components may be scanned to make up IV – e.g., Cefazolin 1gm vial & D5W 50ml bag to make up Cefazolin 1gm in D5W 50ml IVPB order. Orders still must be finished by pharmacists first. Components will not work if the order is finished as a pre-mixed product • IV infusions must be scanned when done to “complete” bag before starting next bag. If not completed on discharge, the IV bag will re-appear on re-admission. • ODD schedules (e.g. Q7D) – remember to use “start time” to control the Admin time VA/IHS BCMA 2013/2014

IV labels • Auto-cancel of orders on transfer – since order is discontinued, IV bags are no longer available • New label – will create a new IV bag number, including a “V” • Reprint label – will create a new IV bag number, but will also invalidate the original bag number VA/IHS BCMA 2013/2014
PCA Infusion • As IV Fluid – easier for documentation • As PRN IV Push med – will require a one-time PRN effectiveness documentation in BCMA (not complete/accurate assessment of pain relief over the course of the infusion) Flow sheet or progress note for further documentation would be necessary.
