Focus on Current Thinking: Good to the Last Drop With CSTDs
Stephen F. Eckel, PharmD, MHA, BCPS, FASHP, FAPhA
Published Online:
Wednesday, January 30, 2013
Follow Pharmacy_Times:
Many of you are familiar with Maxwell House's slogan: "Good to the last drop." It suggests, powerfully, that the coffee in your cup has such great taste that you should waste none of it. The FDA action on January 15, 2013, that created the new ONB code for closed system transfer devices (CSTDs) reminded me of this slogan, except that in this case, the idea is that one should not waste any of the precious medication contained in a given vial.
I was first exposed to CSTDs through a 1999 article by Connor and colleagues in the
American Journal of Health-System Pharmacy
entitled "Surface contamination with antineoplastic agents in six cancer treatment centers in Canada and the United States."
At the time, I was a manager at UNC Hospitals with operational responsibility for IV admixtures, including chemotherapy preparation. We prepared all of our inpatient chemotherapy in our IV room and were in the process of opening a new satellite. Reading this article gave me a new insight into the risk of exposure to chemotherapy my employees faced. I realized that in addition to ensuring the safety of the preparation process to minimize medication errors in patients, I also needed to create a safe work environment for my employees.
I immediately set to work with nursing to evaluate the various CSTDs that were on the market by reviewing the published peer-reviewed literature on their merits. We also authorized a wipe study to detect the amount of chemotherapy contamination in our preparation and administration areas. Even though I believed we were using excellent aseptic technique, I was appalled at how high the reported levels were. I shared the findings with hospital administration, and we worked as a team to budget for, select, and put into use a CSTD. Since we began to use CSTDs, our continued routine monitoring has recorded decreased levels of surface contamination.
A few years ago, I got involved in a discussion regarding the cost of drug waste remaining in vials. As organizations began implementing USP <797>, guidelines on appropriate beyond use dates (BUD) were recommended for drug vials. After the BUD passed, the remaining drug in the vial would be discarded. The safety of the patient was at the center of these guidelines. However, no one had quantified the quantity and value of the medication that was being discarded. We undertook a study at UNC Hospitals to evaluate this expense and determined that for 19 different chemotherapy medications in our organization, the aggregate cost of the waste was close to $750,000 per year.
We also tested whether it would be safe to extend the BUD when a CSTD was in place. Early data at our organization demonstrate that CSTD use can allow for BUD extension that leads to a greater than 50% recovery of the cost of drug wastage, while maintaining the sterility of the medication.
The new FDA rule for ONB classification defines a CSTD as a device that demonstrates no escape of hazardous drug or vapor concentration, no transfer of environmental contaminants, and prevention of microbial ingress. These qualities remind me of why I evaluated and then adopted CSTDs in my health system. We should all be aware of the hazards of exposure to chemotherapy and the protection CSTDs can provide for our employees. We need to make sure our health care workers are ensured the same level of safety as our patients, and CSTDs are essential to doing so.
If you implement an ONB-approved CSTD and take advantage of the drug vial optimization opportunities it presents, your organization can ensure that its medications are also "Good to the last drop."
Have your experiences demonstrated this principle to be true? I would appreciate hearing from you.

Extremely helpful to connect with other providers on a national level. Helps me gain better perspective and access creative solutions. Charges my batteries!
Steeped in religious, generational, gender and cultural diversity, aging services providers strive to create communities that celebrate differences as well as promote and protect what makes each individual unique. With curiosity and diligence, we must not only stay alert to inequalities, but remain attentive to the needs of every human spirit. Only then, can we imagine a world in which everyone is loved, heard, cared for and the essential good in each one of us is manifested.
Archbishop Tutu is a world-renowned human rights activist and recipient of the Presidential Medal of Freedom and the Nobel Peace Prize. Widely described as "South Africa's moral conscience," Tutu has worked tirelessly to promote conflict resolution, end racial divisions and restore social justice to marginalized people. He is also chairman of The Elders, a nonpartisan group of global statesmen who work together to spread peace, justice and democracy throughout the world.

HOUSTON (CBS Houston) – Texans coach Gary Kubiak learned more about the injury defensive end J.J. Watt suffered during the morning practice Thursday. Watt suffered a dislocated elbow when he got caught up in a pile during a scrimmage play.
When he learned the details of Watt's injury, coach Gary Kubiak put his face in his hands. Kubiak didn't want to give a time table for Watt's return but mentioned two weeks as a possible rehab time span. He emphasized he expects Watt to be ready for Week of the regular season.
"We've got to work to get better," Kubiak said about losing a player during practice. "We hold our breath everyday."
Watt's teammates seem to be more optimistic.
Defensive end Antonio Smith told SportRadio 610 that from what Kubiak told the players, he believes Watt will be back soon.
Tim Jamison is behind Watt in the depth chart and will likely get his reps during Watt's absence. Rookie defensive end Jared Crick, a fourth-round pick out of Nebraska, will also get more reps.

Pentagon: Khalid Sheikh Mohammed Confesses to 9/11
Alleged al Qaida mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed has apparently confessed to plotting the 9/11 attacks and a series of other crimes. In a transcript released by the Pentagon, Mohammed says: "I was responsible for the 9/11 operation, from A to Z." He also laid claim to attacks including the 2002 bombings of a Kenyan beach resort and a Bali nightclub that killed hundreds of people. Mohammed also claimed involvement in planning several attacks that never occurred, including assassination attempts on former Presidents Bill Clinton and Jimmy Carter, and bombings of several landmarks in the US and around the world. The Pentagon blacked out some of Mohammed's remarks, including his response to a question on whether he was tortured in US custody. The Associated Press is reporting the Pentagon also redacted a section in which Mohammed confesses to the beheading of the Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl.
GOP Senator Calls for Gonzales Firing
A Senate Republican has joined growing calls for the dismissal of Attorney General Alberto Gonzales over the firing of eight U.S. Attorneys. In an interview with the Associated Press, Republican Senator John Sununu of New Hampshire said: "We need to have a strong, credible attorney general that has the confidence of Congress and the American people. Alberto Gonzales can't fill that role." Sununu's comments came hours after President Bush defended Gonzales' performance. Bush also tried to explain his role in the controversy. The President admitted to discussing the prosecutors with Gonzales but said he didn't mention individual names. Meanwhile in Washington, White House counsel Fred Fielding met with lawmakers to discuss possible subpoenas of top administration officials including chief presidential adviser Karl Rove. Emails and documents released this week show the White House and the Justice Department began discussing firing the prosecutors more than two years ago.
Senate Opens Debate on Iraq Withdrawal
In other news from Washington, the Senate has opened debate on a measure that would withdraw US combat troops from Iraq by April of next year. The White House has threatened to veto the bill if it's approved.
Military: Late-2006 Deadliest Period of Iraq War
The Pentagon has for the first time said some of the violence in Iraq could be described as a "civil war." The assessment came in a quarterly report that called the last three months of 2006 the deadliest period since the US invasion. UN figures show more than six thousand Iraqi civilians were killed or wounded in December alone.
Police Kill 12 Protesting Expropriation in India
In India, at least twelve people were killed after police opened fire on villagers opposing the forced expropriation of farmland in West Bengal. The Indian government wants to use the land to create a tax-free industrial park for an Indonesian chemical firm. More than five hundred police were deployed. Authorities had not tried to enter the area since January due to local opposition.
UK Parliament Approves Nuclear Submarine Over Protest
In Britain, Prime Minister Tony Blair has won approval for a call to renew Britain's fleet of nuclear submarines despite a revolt from nearly ninety-members of his Labour party. The program — Trident — has drawn widespread protest. On Wednesday, an unidentified protester spoke out at a naval base in Scotland.
Unidentified protester: "I feel we face the kind of danger that has more to do with changing people's attitudes and changing people's attitudes to how they deal with conflict. And in that case I don't think Trident's any help whatsoever. It is 75 billion that we could put into education and that we could put into changing attitudes around the world."
Palestinian Factions Agree on Cabinet in Unity Gov't
In the Occupied Territories, rival Palestinian factions Hamas and Fatah have agreed on the makeup of a cabinet in their new coalition government.
Hamas spokesperson Ghazi Hamad: "I can confirm that all the procedure all the procedures all the consultations are now over and because we are ready now for a declaration of a national unity government. Today we have an agreement about all the names of the ministers including the minister of interior. Tomorrow I think that all the organizations and the factions, who join the government they will gave the name of the ministers to the Prime Minster and on Saturday there will be a meeting for the PLC, in order to give a programme to the government."
Palestinians hope the unity deal will help end the international boycott on their government. The US and Israel have rejected the Hamas platform of a long-term truce and want Hamas to renounce violence, recognize Israel's right to exist, and respect previous peace agreements. Palestinians say the conditions are unfair because Israel refuses to accept the same towards Palestinians.
Ukrainians Protest US Missile Agency Head
In Ukraine, the head of the US Missile Agency was met with protest Wednesday as he defended plans for the controversial US missile shield in parts of Europe. Lt. General Henry Obering was speaking to journalists when several protesters heckled him. Demonstrators held anti-nuclear signs and chanted slogans before they were removed from the room. The Bush administration wants to install a battery of up to ten ballistic missiles in Poland and a radar facility in the Czech Republic. Recent polls show majority opposition in both countries.
Vatican Rebukes Leading Salvadoran Dissident Priest
The Vatican has rebuked one of El Salvador's leading dissident priests over writings advocating liberation theology. Reverend Jon Sobrino has played a key role in El Salvador's political struggles. He escaped death in 1989 in the well-known murders of six Jesuit priests, along with their cook and her daughter, at the hands of US-backed Salvadoran troops.
Florida to Pay $5M Over Boot Camp Beating Death
Back in the United States, the state of Florida has agreed to pay five million dollars to the family of a fourteen-year old who died after guards at a juvenile "boot camp" beat him last year. The teenager, Martin Lee Anderson, was initially said to have died of a complication from sickle cell blood disease. But a second autopsy later concluded he suffocated to death. Video footage shows Anderson collapsing to the ground after one of the guards hit him from behind. Seven guards and one nurse have been charged with aggravated manslaughter.
Chiquita Admits Payments to Colombian Paramilitaries
One of the world's largest banana producers has agreed to plead guilty to paying a Colombian right-wing paramilitary group. Chiquita Brands International will pay a twenty-five million dollar fine as part of a settlement for making payments to the United Self-Defense Forces of Colombia. The Justice Department says Chiquita paid out more than $1.7 million between 1997 and 2004. Nearly half came after the group was designated a foreign terrorist organization in 2001. Chiquita has previously admitted to making unspecified "protection" payments following what it says were threats from militant groups. Chiquita — formally United Fruit Company — has seen several accusations of ties to criminal activity in its Latin America dealings.
Judge Rejects Dismissal of Union-Slaying Case
In other Colombia-related news, a federal judge has rejected an attempt to dismiss a civil suit against the Alabama-based coal company Drummond for the killing of three Colombian union leaders. The suit says company executives directly paid assassins to commit the slayings.
Charges Dismissed Against HP CEO
And finally in California, a judge has dismissed charges against former Hewlett Packard CEO Patricia Dunn. Dunn had been charged in connection to Hewlett Packard's surveillance of journalists and board members in an attempt to discover the source of information leaked to the media.

Ghana resumed work recently after going into illegal strikes on
Apr 2, 2013. The illegal strike was resolved following the
settlement of the issues between Gold Fields' management team and

This illegal strike resulted from a number of demands coming from
the GMU and its affiliates, the Professional Managerial Staff
Union and the Branch Union. These employees threatened Gold
Fields to take industrial action if their demands are not
fulfilled favorably.
The demands of the Union included certain disputes relating to
determination of profit share payments to employees, the
unconditional reinstatement of an employee who was dismissed
following an internal disciplinary procedure, dissatisfaction
with certain management structures, removal of certain members of
senior management, concerns about catering delivery models, and
allegations of discrimination between expatriate and Ghanaian

Everyone interested in using horses for logging, in how timber harvesting can be done to increase the long-term value of woodlands and enhance wildlife habitat and recreational uses, and in the latest "green" standards for forest management, is invited to tour our active timber harvest this Sunday, Feb. 23, at 1 p.m.
Our Foss Forest is being harvested right now. Horses and conventional skidders are being used to drag trees out of the forest. This forest tour will start at the Foss Forest log landing on Pearl Lake Road, 1.3 miles west of the intersection of Route 117 and Pearl Lake Road in Sugar Hill.
The harvest is being managed by consulting ecologist Jesse Mohr of Native Geographic, LLC, and forester Jeff Smith of Butternut Hollow Forestry. Smith, along with logger Bruce Streeter of Orford, will on hand to discuss the goals of the timber harvest and how horses and machinery are used to the benefit of the forest.
The management plan and timber harvest are following best practices as described in "Good Forestry in the Granite State." The Foss Forest is a certified New Hampshire Tree Farm. It is also certified as sustainably managed by the international Forest Stewardship Council, meaning that timber from the forest may be sold into "green" markets, potentially at premium prices. The timber has also been marked to meet "Foresters for the Birds" guidelines. On the Foss property, we are trying to encourage understory and mid-story habitat for songbirds, while also promoting regeneration of valuable saw timber species.
ACT, Mohr, and Smith are all members of the Forest Guild, a national organization that promotes the "practice of responsible forestry as a means of sustaining the integrity of forest ecosystems and the human communities dependent upon them."

Telco 2.0 and the Connected Life
BusinessWeek had it right, Cisco CEO John Chambers said today, about its feature article last week on the service provider industry. The Telecommunications industry was indeed very much recovering -and in some cases, thriving, after near-death experiences earlier this decade. The reasons as to why are quite extensive, but in many ways, the resurgence is due to a rethinking of the industry itself.As John highlighted, providers are no longer defined by their access technology and no longer looking at only traditional services. Instead, they are looking at a much wider swath of the market, which they can now address with their new IP-based next generation networks. What they deliver is becoming not a one-size-fits-all service, but rather they are offering much more integrated or blended services. The battle for the customer will be determined not just by price, but much more by the value that providers offer customers. It's also a signal that customers are very much leading the way for the industry.At NXTcomm: Hear various comments on the Connected LifeDuration: 1 min. 36 sec. Read More »
Remedy for Bay Area Traffic and All Bad Commutes
Shocker!!! Traffic is bad in the Bay Area. It is a good news, bad news thing. Back during the "boom" of the Internet in the late 90′s/early 2000, traffic was a sign that the region's economic motor was humming. During the bust, the traffic was much better, but the economy was much worse. Traffic is a sign of economic activity, to be sure, but also a sign of a decreased quality of life and a bit too much time listening to NPR in the car or your other favorite radio station.So, what is the remedy for Bay Area traffic? As was reported in the San Francisco Chronicle and the San Jose Mercury News, bond measures will spend over $1 billion to widen choke spots or add HOV lanes. That's one thing.What is the remedy for all bad commutes, however? Simple: stay off the road. That's right. Work at home. With broadband reaching nearly every corner of the world, you can work virtually from anywhere. As our CEO challenged Cisco employees last week, we are all to cut one trip a quarter. Read More »

NXTcomm 2007″€Âthe "next big thing" is personalization
As NXTcomm 2007 begins here in Chicago (June 18-21), many attendees will be searching for"the next big thing" to help sustain the growth and profitability that the global service provider market has enjoyed throughout FY07. While compelling applications like IPTV and TelePresence continue to gain greater subscriber adoption, the next big thing may lie in the"little things" that customers are able to do with these and other services-personalize them.From Cisco's perspective, service personalization allows residential and business subscribers to tailor offerings to meet their unique individual interests or corporate needs. Customization can encompass a wide array of options-services on-demand, content preferences, buddy lists, quality of experience (i.e., standard- or high-definition) and much more. As we're demonstrating in our Cisco booth (# 4851),"The Connected Life" means that personalized services are always available and accessible everywhere a subscriber goes. NXTcomm's event organizers understand the value and importance of personalization. Attendees will have an opportunity to use"myNXTcomm"-an automated web-based service that gathers solutions, contacts and resources and personalizes them for the NXTcomm community.I look forward to sharing my"personal" NXTcomm 2007 insights with you throughout the week and I encourage you to share your thoughts and ideas to this blog as well.The Connected Life: at home, at work, and on the moveSee a Pre-show tour of the Cisco booth at NXTcomm with Doug WebsterDuration: 3 min. 12 sec.

That was meant to be a comment for the AC who mentioned Assange.
That's an interesting point - if he genuinely believes that the US is out to get him, what better opportunity would they have to snatch him than when he is in self-imposed hiding? If the Yanks really wanted to rendition him they could cut a deal with (Ecuador?) Smuggle him out of the Embassy somehow and fly him out on a military plane from one of the bases they rent. The Embassy staff pretend for as long as they can that JA is still with them, until years later when they claim he left in the middle of the night trying to flee the country.

"new, cheaper contracts (of course, leaving the 318k mugs on whatever daft tarrif they've committed to)"
I would dearly love to see them try to do this - not because I want those 318k to suffer, but because the inevitable backlash from the public and the various fair trade bodies would be a thing of beauty to behold. The telcos are already under scrutiny for the lockin contracts that allow them to jack up the prices - if they actually lowered prices but stiffed anyone already committed to a contract the consumer rights organisations would tear them a new one.

Australia to reveal tech giants' tax tricks
Transfer tax
It appears to me that the multiple transfers from jurisdiction to jurisdiction are the key element behind the avoidance loopholes. Perhaps the key would be to apply a tax to corporate revenue whenever it leaves a jurisdiction? It could scale up based on the number of transfers, so the first time a company moves revenue in a year it is either free or 0%, but to move the same money again would incur a 2% charge, then 4% to move it again etc. Companies bouncing money around Ireland/Holland/Bermuda would stop getting to do this for free.
Another option would be to allow money to leave the country tax free on the condition the company declares that this is the final destination for the funds in this financial year, however if it's going to be bounced around at least one more haven, then there is a charge.

Animal Liberation drone surveillance plan draws fire
Re: This Drone
I think the legality of civilian aerial surveillance has yet to be tested, and I'm just guessing but I doubt it would stop a number of farmers anyway.
Being observed on private land by specialist equipment will piss them off whether it is declared lawful or not. Unless the drone has multiple cameras it can't see everywhere - the smart farmers will just down it from behind.
This Drone
If it's really as hard to see/hear as they suggest, they will probably be banned or restricted as stealthy surveillance equipment. If it's covert capabilities were exaggerated and it's actually fairly visible then we're back to the farmers shotgunning them down.

Voda: Brit kids will drown in TIDAL WAVE of FILTH - it's all Ofcom's fault
Re: buying phones offline
Pretty sure you can just buy handset only in most of the non-network shops. My last 2 phones were SIM only unlocked to any network, brand new. Admittedly this was from Play.com so not much use if you're committed to an in store buy - I presume you want to have a tester model in your hand before buying?
While I'm glad that Ofcom are looking into contracts where the payment can be varied, I think we have to admit that some of the blame lies with the lazy public accepting these 'deals'. Nowadays it's fairly easy to buy a sim free handset and get a rolling contract that leaves you free to walk away on short notice.
The networks will grumble for a bit because they don't want to go to the effort of changing their ways, but eventually one of them will do their legwork and offer a tarriff that is 'guaranteed for the life of the contract' (with some legalese caveats protecting their backs) and the rest will follow like an avalanche.

Right now they will be mega focussed on trying to twist the facts to their world-view where "no fire occurred" and the 'smoke' was a planned safety release. They need everyone to believe this message so they can recertify the planes and get them back in the air before the airlines start cancelling orders/demanding refunds/suing.

Re: Dammit
It is a big deal, because it means the slumbering giant has finally woken up and noticed AdBlock. Ergo there is a good chance that there will be further moves to make it more and more of a faff to find and install in the pipeline.
With any luck they will rebrand AdBlock as a firewall/NetNanny style extension (that just so happens to blacklist ad sites by default). I hope they don't go after the PC version as well.

...public resources should only ever have been sold off on a use it or lose it contract, with purchasers being obliged to resell spectrum unused after X years.

Another option could have been a rental model - ongoing payments would certainly have focused profit making companies onto only paying for what they needed and sorted out unwanted spectrum returning to the regulator.
Still, 20/20 hindsight and all that.
