Working Mode and Effect of Clinical Pharmacists Involved in Postoperative Patient-controlled Analgesia Pump Management / 中国药学杂志

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To explore the working mode of clinical pharmacists involved in postoperative patient-controlled analgesia pump management and its effectiveness. METHODS: According to the postoperative analgesia pump workflow and pharmaceutical monitoring route, SPS22.0 software was used to analyze the data of patients undergoing elective surgery in the Department of Spinal Surgery and General Surgery of Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital from January 2014 to December 2018. RESULTS: The patient-controlled analgesia(PCA) usage rate in spine surgery and general surgery increased. The postoperative pain control compliance rate remained above 90%, and the incidence of adverse reactions decreased year by year. CONCLUSION: Since the clinical pharmacists participated in the management of analgesic pumps, the pharmaceutical monitoring of patient-controlled analgesia pumps has improved the quality of postoperative pain management, enabling patients to receive reasonable, economical and safe drug treatment.
