Start using a checklist, PRONTO: Recommendation for a standard review process for chemotherapy orders.
Journal of Oncology Pharmacy Practice 2018 December
Chemotherapy order review by pharmacists requires careful attention to many details, and serious consequences can occur if errors are made. Other high-risk industries have long used checklists to improve accuracy and reduce the risk of errors. Despite the recent expansion of checklist use in other areas of medicine, there is currently no published evidence that checklists are being widely used by pharmacists in the evaluation of chemotherapy orders. This article explains a flexible checklist called PRONTO (Patient, Regimen, Organ Function, Numbers, Toxicity, Order Verification) that has been successfully used by pharmacists in variety of practice settings in two academic centers in North Carolina. Proposed benefits of using a checklist in order review include standardization of review for better communication between collaborating pharmacists, a training tool for new or cross-training pharmacists, and an educational tool for students.
