Environmental monitoring helps identify contamination sources and ensures a sterile environment for compounding.
Media fill tests are used to simulate the compounding process and evaluate the aseptic technique of personnel.
Endotoxin tests detect harmful endotoxins that can cause severe reactions in patients if present in CSPs.
Quality assurance protocols are designed to ensure that CSPs are safe, effective, and of high quality.
SOPs provide detailed instructions for performing tasks consistently and correctly in sterile compounding.
Regular competency assessments help ensure that technicians are skilled and knowledgeable about current best practices in sterile compounding.
Failed CSPs should be discarded, and the cause of failure should be investigated to prevent recurrence.
BUDs help ensure that CSPs are used within their stability and safety period.
CSPTs are responsible for following proper gowning and aseptic techniques to maintain a sterile cleanroom environment.
A well-documented quality assurance program helps ensure compliance with regulations and standards, ensuring safety and quality.
Quality assurance programs focus on continuously monitoring and improving compounding processes to ensure high standards.
