RESUMO
OBJECTIVE： To explore the role of clinical pharmacist in individualized treatment for osteosarcoma patients with periprosthetic joint infection （PJI）. METHODS： An osteosarcoma patient was admitted to our hospital and then suffered from PJI after operation. Clinical pharmacist adjusted the initial anti-infection plan and carried out pharmaceutical care according to the results of patients’ etiology and drug sensitivity. According to the PK-PD principle， combined with the therapeutic drug monitoring （TDM）， the dose of antibiotics was adjusted. With the occurrence of ADR， the antibiotic therapeutic regimen was adjusted again. RESULTS： The patient was administrated cefotiam for empiric therapy initially after the diagnosis of PJI. After obtaining the results of etiology and drug sensitivity， the clinical pharmacist suggested that vancomycin sensitive to penicillin-resistant Staphylococcus epidermidis should be used for targeted anti-infection treatment. After adjusting the dosage according to the steady-state valley concentration， the patient had slight liver function damage， accompanied with chest tightness and shortness of breath. After analysis， the clinical pharmacist considered the adverse drug reactions related to vancomycin， and again suggested that the patient should be treated with teicoplanin. After the doctor adopted the treatment plan recommended by the clinical pharmacist， PJI of the patient was effectively controlled， and the adverse reaction symptoms disappeared. The patient was effectively cured for PJI and discharged eventually. During the treatment period， the clinical pharmacist also carried out medication education for the drugs used by the patient. CONCLUSIONS： Clinical pharmacist should master the principle of antibiotic drug PK-PD theory and evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of anti-infective drugs dynamically based on the guidance of TDM， so as to develop individualized anti-infection therapeutic regimen for osteosarcoma patient with PJI， improve the effect of clinical treatment and guarantee the safety of drug use.
RESUMO
Tacrolimus exhibits varied individual pharmacokinetic and a narrow therapeutic window, resulting in difficulties in personalized medication.In order to improve the safety of tacrolimus in clinical application and its efficiency and rationality in clinical practice, many countries and regions in the world have issued a number of guidelines for tacrolimus application.However, these guidelines generally aim at particular disease and race, and have certain limitation.In this article, the guidelines were explicated and analyzed in detail.Moreover, an individual tacrolimus medication recommendation for Chinese population was summarized based on the latest research of tacrolimus pharmacogenomics and therapeutic drug monitoring so as to provide assistance for the rational use of tacrolimus.
RESUMO
Objective Clinical parenteral nutrition( PN) support still lacks in standards on some degree .This paper was to analyze the clinical application of PN support in our hospital in order to provide the basis for clinical rational drug use . Methods Random weighting method was applied to collect 5% hospitalized patients′information from each patient unit each month from April 2012 to March 2013 in Nanjing Gerneral Hospital of Nanjing Military Region .NRS-2002 nutrition risk screening was applied to eval-uate whether the patient needed PN support .Statistical analysis were carried out on patients supported with parenteral nutrition from department distribution, PN detailed components and distribution intervals of aII in one admixture non-protein calorie and nitrogen ra-tio. Results According to the survey, 393 patients had received PN support, including 217 cases′NRS score <3 and 176 cases′NRS score ≥3.General surgery department ranked the first in the cases of usingall in oneadmixture support.Among 133 cases receiving all in one admixture support, the course of 37 cases(27.82%) <7 d.The aII in one admixture non-protein calorie and ni-trogen ratio(100~150∶1) only took up 28.57%. Conclusion Although PN has got wide application in clinical departments, the rationality of prescription should be strengthened .Pharmacists should help doctors set up appropriate prescription from the aspect of pharmacy.
