About
Irene Iglesias Peinado is a leading researcher in hospital pharmacy automation and patient safety, with a primary focus on the implementation and evaluation of robotic dispensing systems in outpatient settings. Her seminal 2018 study, "Robotic dispensing improves patient safety, inventory management, and staff satisfaction in an outpatient hospital pharmacy," has garnered 72 citations and stands as a pivotal work in the field. In this research, Peinado systematically addressed a critical gap in evidence by demonstrating that robotic technology not only reduces dispensing errors but also enhances inventory control and boosts staff morale—key factors often overshadowed by cost concerns. Her work provides definitive evidence that supports the broader adoption of automation in hospital pharmacies, directly impacting patient safety outcomes. Beyond this flagship study, Peinado's contributions extend to optimizing workflow efficiency and medication management processes. Her research has become essential reading for pharmacy administrators, health-system leaders, and automation engineers seeking to justify and implement robotic solutions. By bridging the gap between technological innovation and clinical practice, Peinado has established herself as a thought leader in the evidence-based transformation of outpatient pharmacy operations.
