ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the clinical application of warfarin in inpatients of our hospital,and provide reference for standardized application in clinic. METHODS:Totally 267 inpatients records used warfarin in our hospital from Jan. 2013 to Jun. 2014 were investigated to retrospectively analyze the indications,dosage,international normalized ratio(INR)monitoring and bleeding complications of warfarin. RESULTS:Warfarin was mainly used for patients with deep vein thrombosis,cerebral infarc-tion,rheumatic heart disease and pulmonary embolism in our hospital;the dosage of inpatients was in the range of 0.625-6.875 mg with average daily dosage of (2.15 ± 0.72) mg;the INR lower than 1.8 accounted for 52.8%,the INR in the range of 1.8-3.0 (reaching the standard) accounted for 31.8% and INR higher than 3.0 accounted for 15.4%;incidence of adverse reactions was 5.6%,mainly subcutaneous blood spots (petechiae) and urine occult blood,and incidence of severe hemorrhage (intracerebral hemorrhage) was 0.7%. CONCLUSIONS:At present,the clinical application of warfarin is still deficient,and qualified rate of INR is still low. It's important to actively carry out medication intervention and clinical pharmaceutical care.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To know the utilizatior of Shenfu injection(SFI)in our hospital,and provide reference for ratio-nal use of SFI. METHODS:In respective study,patients received SFI from the Hospital Information System(HIS)in surgery department in our hospital from Jan. 2013 to Dec. 2014 were analyzed statistically in aspects of general situation,indications, usage and dosage,course of treatment,drug combination,etc. And the incidence of ADR/ADE was monitored. RESULTS:The 1 247 surgery inpatients used SFI distributed in thyroid and galactophore department(634 cases),comprehensive minimal-ly invasive department (292 cases),gastrointestinal surgery department (250 cases),urology department (64 cases) and car-diothoracic surgery department(7 cases),including 466 male and 781 female,the ratio of male to female was 1∶1.68,aver-age age was 58.50 years;it mainly used in perioperative medication (78.11%) and treated for tumors (11.23%),treatment course concentrated on 2-7 d(71.45%),dosage mainly was 100 ml(70.01%);combination medication were mainly pantopra-zole sodium,Fructus bruceae injection,Xueshuantong for injection(lyophilized),etc. The nonstandard phenomenon was exist-ed in indications,dosage,solvent selection,medication frequency,drug combination,etc. There were no obvious ADR/ADE related to SFI. CONCLUSIONS:More attention must be paid to the irrational use of SFI in surgery clinic of our hospital,the safety of traditional Chinese medicine injection in clinical use should be correctly understood,achieve dialectical therapy and rational drug use.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the applications of antibacterial agents to outpatients in primary hos -pitals in Hefei City of Anhui Province,and to provide reference for rational use of antibacterial agents.Methods In 2011, fourty-five primary hospitals in Hefei City were selected randomly ,including urban community health service centers (Group A) and township hospitals(Group B),and thirty or fourty outpatient prescriptions were analyzed monthly . Results In Group A, the percentage and intensity of antimicrobial usage , the proportion of the combination and injectable formulation were ( 45.36 ±20.02 )%, ( 89.73 ±25.50 ) DDDs · ( 100 cases ) -1 · d-1 , 13.34%, 23.16%,respectively,and the data in Group B were (61.36 ±17.18)%,(108.46 ±32.27)DDDs· (100 cases) -1 · d-1,29.13%,46.39%,respectively,which the former were significantly lower than the latter.Conclusion In primary hospitals,the applications of antibacterial agents to outpatiants are not rataional ,including high percentages of usage and unreasonable selection of species ,and more supervision and training need to be given to the medical staff , especially in township hospitals .
