GERPAC (Group of Evaluation and Research for Protection in Areas Under Control) was founded in 1998 and consists of hospital pharmacists, university teachers and researchers with the aim of promoting the techniques and skills required to prepare toxic drugs in a safe way for both staff and patients. A great deal of focus is placed on sharing knowledge and best practice in procedures for the preparation of sterile and non-sterile medications. The 2019 conference is the 22nd in order and is attended by over 400 delegates from mainly France. PrepLog™ from Pharmacolog – which is being shown for the first time on GERPAC – enables a unique quality control of prepared toxic drugs, fully integrated with the prescription system used at the clinic.
Kent Öbrink, Sales Manager Pharmacolog comments: “GERPAC is perhaps the most important conference in Southern Europe and therefore it is extra exciting to be able to show PrepLog™ here for the first time. Interest is great and the comments are very positive. DrugLog® that quickly and efficiently verifies the concentration and identity of a prepared drug is used today at several hospital pharmacies here in France. What PrepLog™ additionally provides is a fast and smooth workflow with full integration and traceability. Something that is important when preparing chemotherapy drugs can be likened to an industrial production where integration and good workflow are crucial for safe and efficient handling.”
