Evaluation of surface contamination with cyclophosphamide following simulated hazardous drug preparation activities using two closed-system products

Abstract

Based on the limited number of samples obtained during this preliminary study and the determination of the presence of the chemical of interest on the drug vials, no statistical evaluation was performed to compare the relative effectiveness of the two systems tested. Work practices and procedures regarding product operation may affect hazardous drug containment and worker safety. Further study and statistical analyses are needed.
