RESUMO:

Patient safety is considered one of the main items in the evaluation of quality of services and at the same time is a challenge for health professionals. Prevent the occurrence of adverse events during drug therapy becomes extremely important in providing safer care. As one of the most important means of communication between the team and therefore present a high incidence of errors, prescription processes and drugs administration have great relevance, and essential for maintenance and improving the quality of service in hospitals. The aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of a cycle of improvement in the quality of prescriptions and medication administration at a public hospital. The study was developed through a quasi-experimental design, before-after in a referral hospital for infectious diseases in the state of Rio Grande do Norte, RN, Brazil. To evaluate the level of quality of prescription and administration of medications were randomly selected hospitalized patients medical records and found 12 developed quality criteria previously developed by a group of experts. The initial assessment revealed deficiency in the level of quality on 11 criteria and after planning and implementation of a structured intervention yielded significant improvement in the criteria for the presence of erasures, training of nursing staff and practice of the nine certain medication administration (p <0.05) and the two criteria on the completeness of the prescription (p <0.001). Based on these results, we can conclude that despite the difficulties faced during the planned intervention, the improvement cycle reached its goal significantly in almost half of the evaluated criteria.
