Analysis of Monitoring Focus Drugs in an Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital Based on ABC-VEN Matrix Analysis / 中国药房

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE：To investigate drug use in an obstetrics and gynecology hospital and confirm the types of drugs that need to be monitored so as to provide reference for rational drug use in clinic. METHODS： Activity based classification （ABC） analysis， Vital-Essential-Nonessential Medicine （VEN） analysis and ABC-VEN matrix analysis were used to statistically analyze the types of drugs in the inpatients and outpatients of this hosptial during Jan. 2016-Dec. 2017， and consumption sum in the hospital so as to determine the types of monitoring focus drugs. RESULTS： The drugs were divided into class A， B， and C by using ABC analysis， and the constitute ratio of them were 6.08％， 7.71％ and 86.21％； the constitute ratio of consumption sum were 70.97％， 19.07％ and 9.96％， respectively. The drugs were divided into class V， E and N， and the constitute ratio of them were 36.51％， 43.61％ and 19.88％； constituent ratios of their consumption sum were 31.89％， 33.89％ and 34.22％， respectively. The drugs were divided into group Ⅰ （class AV， AE， AN， BV， CV）， group Ⅱ （class BE， CE， BN） and group Ⅲ （class CN） by using ABC-VEN matrix analysis； the constitute ratios of accumulative number of drug type were 40.56％， 44.43％ and 15.01％，while those of accumulative consumption sum were 77.29％， 20.52％ and 2.19％， respectively. Among class N， the constituent ratio of consumption sum of class AN as Chinese patent medicine， blood substitutes and perfusion solutions were higher， being 12.48％ and 7.92％； that of class BN as Chinese patent medicine was higher， being 3.21％； those of class CN as Chinese patent medicine， sex hormones and modulators of the genital system were higher， being 1.14％， 0.50％. CONCLUSIONS： In the Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital， consumption sum of class A is the main part of the total consumption sum of drugs， and they should be seleted according to therapeutic efficacy. Active regulatory policies should be adopted for class V and E so that more drug types that possess cost- effectiveness advantages； for class N， management control and reasonable utilization should be monitored closely to reduce irrational drug use. Some Chinese patent medicines， blood substitutes and perfusion solutions among class AN should be monitored and controlled emphatically.
