About

Arris Vibar is a leading voice in the automation of hazardous drug compounding, with a career dedicated to enhancing safety and precision in hospital pharmacy practice. His most impactful work centers on the implementation and evaluation of first-generation chemotherapy-compounding robots. His landmark three-year study, which has garnered 39 citations, provides a critical, long-term performance evaluation of an automated i.v. compounding system (CytoCare) at a hospital in Saudi Arabia. This research offered the field a rare, real-world assessment of the technology’s reliability, error rates, and workflow integration over an extended period. By meticulously documenting the robot's performance, Vibar’s work directly addressed the pressing need for safer handling of antineoplastic agents, reducing occupational exposure for pharmacy staff. His findings have served as a foundational benchmark for hospitals worldwide considering the transition from manual to robotic compounding, cementing his reputation as a key researcher in the advancement of pharmacy automation and patient safety.
