    The objective was to determine the economic savings generated by using the Unit Dose Dispensing System (UDDS) in the Intensive Care Unit of the Pediatric Emergency Hospital. Method: The study was basic, with a quantitative, correlational descriptive, retrospective, and cross-sectional design. The sampling was non-probabilistic convenience sampling. The sample included 316 medication and/or device requests during the last quarter of 2019. Data were collected using an analysis matrix validated by expert judgment, based on data obtained from the pharmacy service's information system at the Pediatric Emergency Hospital, Lima, Peru. Results: Of the 316 requests (122 from October, 143 from November, and 51 from December 2019), the average cost per medication request was S/ 43.76 soles, and for medical device requests, it was S/ 66.06 soles. The average economic savings per returned medication request were S/ 9.49 soles due to suspension or treatment change and S/ 10.52 soles due to discharge or death. The savings for medical devices were S/ 31.82 soles for suspension or treatment change and S/ 51.54 soles for discharge or death. Conclusion: The economic savings generated by using the UDDS in the Intensive Care Unit of the Pediatric Emergency Hospital during the last quarter of 2019 were 14% for medications and 26% for medical devices.
