Practice and Evaluation of Extended Clinical Pharmacy Service in the Secondary Prevention of Stroke / 医药导报

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the application effect of clinical pharmacy services in the secondary prevention ot stroke.Methods Hospitalized stroke patients were selected in Taihe Hospital from June 2013 to August 2014.The patients meeting the inclusion criteria were paired and sequentially numbered,and randomly divided into observation group (n =100) and control group (n =102).The patients were treated routinely during thc hospitalization.The clinical pharmacists conducted the drug education.The control group implemented the telephone follow-up for guiding compliance behavior one month after discharge.The observation group continued to perform clinical pharmacist-leading service projects.The medication compliance (Morisky scale),systolic blood pressure (SBP),diastolic blood pressure (DBP),glycated hemoglobin (HbA1 C),serum total cholesterol (TC),low density lipoprotein-C (LDL-C) and relapse rate were compared three months,six months and twelve months after the two groups discharged.Results The medication compliance,SBP,DBP,HbA1C,TC,LDL-C and recurrence rate after hospital discharge were no statistically significant (P ＞ 0.05) three months after the two groups discharged,but statistically significant between the two groups (P ＜ 0.05 or P ＜ 0.01) six months and twelvc months after the two groups discharged.Levels of SBP,DBP,HbA1 C,TC and LDL-C in the two groups were both significantly lower than before (P ＜ 0.05 or P ＜ 0.01).The relapse rate of the observation group three months,six months and twelve months after they discharged was 2.00％,5.00％ and 15.00％,respectively,and that of the control group was 2.94％,13.72％ and 28.43％,respectively.Conclusion The pharmacy services in the secondary prevention of stroke can improve the patient medication compliance and better control the blood pressure,blood glucose and blood lipid lcvcls,and reduce the relapse rate.It should be recommended in the clinical practice work.
