| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
There is currently limited information available regarding exposure to oral hazardous drugs (HD). Therefore, through visual inspection of potential exposure routes such as gloves, preparatory tables, and bedsides, we devised recommended countermeasures to prevent environmental exposure to oral HD administered via enteral feeding tubes. Upon examining the effectiveness of the recommended countermeasures, results demonstrated that exposure to HD among nurses had decreased in comparison to conventional countermeasures. Using clopidogrel sulfate, we examined the degree of incompatibility in the solution used for the simple suspension method and investigated whether countermeasures to exposure affected the amount of drug administered by enteral feeding. Environmental exposure was observed in the packaging machine used during pulverization of oral HD. We showed that wiping more than twice with a damp cloth made with polypropylene was effective in removing drug contamination.
