Feedback on the Centralization of Intrathecal Analgesic Preparations in Hospital Pharmacy

Abstract

Abstract Intrathecal analgesia has increased over the last 30 years. In oncology, it is a real alternative for the treatment of refractory pain. The diversity of the molecules alone or in combination that can be used, the risk related to the route of administration, and the cost of certain molecules are all arguments in favor of centralized preparation within the pharmacy. The purposes of this work are first of all to explain the reasons for centralization of these preparations, and in a second time to describe the circuit developed within our establishment.
