Objective: To investigate nurses' acceptance of medication administration and blood transfusion barcode technology system and to identify factors related to acceptance. Methods: This exploratory study was conducted as a cross sectional study design, a convenience sample of 59 nurses was invited to participate in the study. The data were collected using a questionnaire that was based on the technology acceptance model. The questionnaire include: (1) Demographics variables. (2) Technology perception and acceptance questionnaire. We also provide the data of blood transfusion near miss events and medication administration accident reporting rates to test the effect of these system. Results: The acceptance of medication administration and blood transfusion barcode technology system were moderate to high level in nurses, and blood transfusion barcode system had significantly higher score than medication administration barcode system. The important predictors of behavioral intention(BI) to use in medication administration and blood transfusion barcode technology system were perceived usefulness for patient care(PU-PT)and social influence (SI)to use (adjusted R2 =79.6%, adjusted R2 =87.5%). Perceived usefulness for own performance (PU-SELF) explained 61.1% (adjusted R2 =61.1%) in satisfaction with medication administration barcode technology. Perceived ease of use(PEOU), Perceived usefulness for PU-SELF and PU-PT explained 76.7% (adjusted R2 =76.7%) in satisfaction with blood transfusion barcode technology. Conclusions: The results revealed that nurses had positive acceptance to barcode technology. We also found that blood transfusion barcode technology system effectively decreases in blood transfusion near miss reporting rates nearly 10 years. However, barcode medication administration workflow should be further improved in order to benefit clinical practice. |
