Gabel et al. (2016) conducted an editorial in Drug reconciliation errors in anesthesia. Real-time reporting system for drug reconciliation vs. Next-day reconciliation was evaluated on Drug reconciliation errors. A real-time reporting system comparing automated dispensing cabinet drug removal with anesthesia documentation significantly decreased drug reconciliation errors compared to next-day reconciliation.
