ABSTRACT

OBJE CTIVE To provide reference for the adjustment and optimization of the policies related to traditional Chinese medicine（TCM）injection in China. METHODS The policies related to TCM injections issued at the national level were collected from Jan. 1，1990 to May 31，2021. Based on the perspective of policy tool ，the content analysis and quantitative analysis were used to classify ，code and analyze the policy terms according to “policy serial number-chapter number-specific terms ”. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS Totally 30 policy documents related to TCM injection were included ， with a total of 389 codes. Environment-based policy tools were the most widely used （79.95％），followed by supply-oriented policy tools ，accounting for 15.42％. Demand-based policy tools accounted for the least proportion （4.63％）. Among environment-based policy tools ，the regulatory and control policy tools （38.05％） received more attention，and the policy publicity （2.06％） received fewer applications. Among supply-oriented policy tools ，there were more applications of science and technology support （10.80％）， and fewer applications of capital investment （0.26％）. Among demand- based policy tools ，organizational coordination was the most widely used （3.34％），followed by experience demonstration （1.29％），which had not yet involved the relevant policies of international exchange. In order to promote the development of TCM injection ，it is necessary to appropriately reduce the application of environment-based policy tools ，increase the application of policies such as policy publicity ，and improve the external environment for TCM injection ；optimize the internal combination of supply-oriented policy tools ，increase the use of capital investment tools ，and effectively play the role of policy boosting；emphasize the application of demand-based policy XJY21013） tools to form an effective policy pulling force for the healthy development of TCM injection.
