ABSTRACT

Objective To realize the utilization of antibacterial drugs in pediatric inpatients in Children's Hospital for clinical reference of rational use of drugs. Methods By a retrospective study, 180 cases in pediatric inpatients were randomly sampled in Children's Hospital from July to December 2012, and were analyzed in utility rate, antibiotics varieties, administrational frequency,single dose,combination use,prophylaxis time,courses of drug use,etc. Results The use of antibacterial drugs in pediatric inpatients was 110 cases (61.1%) and used in combination was 55 cases (50%) . Leading the list in terms of DDDs was cephalosporins,followed byβ-lactam and its enzyme inhibitor complex preparations. The improper medications frequency was 12 cases (10.9%), irrational single dose was 7 cases (6.4%), and irrational course of treatment was 9 cases (8.2%) . Conclusion The utilization of antibacterial drugs in Children's Hospital is basically rational, but there still exist some irrational drug uses,such as antibiotics varieties,no indication, irrational dosage,long duration and irrational combination. So, it is necessary to enhance the administration of antibiotics use and improve the level of clinical reasonable application of antibiotics.
