Design and Performance Evaluation of A Pre-evaluation Tool for Medical Orders of Perioperative Antibiotics / 医药导报

ABSTRACT

Objective To design a medical order pre-evaluation tool for perioperative prophylactic application of antibiotics,and to improve the efficiency of antibiotics management in hospitals during the perioperative period.Methods Using the open-source software R as the platform,a web application was built with tidy verse and shiny package based on related documents and guidelines.The discharge records of Affiliated Hospital of North Sichuan Medical College from April 1,2021,to December 31,2022,were retrospectively reviewed using the constructed pre-evaluation tool and compared with previous manual evaluation results using McNemar's Chi-squared test.Results This medical order pre-evaluation tool can quickly complete perioperative antibiotics order sampling,batch pre-evaluation,result statistics,visualization,and result output,and flexibly adjust the evaluation rules according to actual needs.The pre-evaluation tool is more efficient,with a review speed of 13.46 ms per medical record.Among the 2 642 discharge medical records of manual review,there was no significant difference between systematic pre-evaluation and manual evaluation results(ratio of prophylactic use:76.85%vs.78.21%)in terms of the type of use(preventive or curative)(P= 0.078).Among the 1 857 discharge records judged to be prophylactic for both manual and systematic reviews,the difference in unreasonable detection rate(39.90%vs.30.32%)was statistically significant(P＜0.001).Among the 63 typical ludicrous medical records confirmed by the review of clinical pharmacists with senior professional titles,60 were judged and limited by the pre-evaluation tool,and the detection rate of typical unreasonable was 95.24%.Conclusions The pre-evaluation tool based on R in this study can improve the efficiency of perioperative antibacterial drug evaluation.The evaluation conclusions and statistical results are reliable and are worthy of further development and application.
