Mary Nazzal and Melanie Dorey, co-owners of Critical Compounding Resources, demonstrate the importance of smoke testing for Primary Engineering Controls (PECs) to evaluate airflow and ensure compliance with USP <797> standards. Their approach includes guiding pharmacies in conducting their own smoke tests, enhancing staff training, and improving aseptic techniques. They provide insights on organizing supplies within PECs, optimizing ergonomics, and ensuring unidirectional airflow to maintain first air quality. Their goal is to help pharmacies improve compounding quality and patient safety through better understanding and application of these practices.
