Resumo
Objective: to characterize errors during the preparation and administration of injectable drugs in an emergency care unit. Method:
descriptive cross-sectional study carried out in an emergency care unit. Data collection was performed by direct non-participant
observation, for 30 consecutive days and the data were analyzed using descriptive statistics. Results: 751 doses were observed
during the drug preparation and administration process. The main errors were lack of hand hygiene, disinfection of vials and
countertops, failure to provide information on the administered drug and patient identification and verification of drug allergy.
Conclusion: errors in the medication preparation and administration process often occur in an emergency care unit. The study
indicates and reinforces the need to restructure the emergency service for a safe practice and offers subsidies to plan permanent
education and the training of new professionals.
