RESUMO
Objective:To establish a calculation model of drug preparation difficulty coefficient for outpatient pharmacy intrave -nous admixture center ( OUIVA) in a children's hospital, and construct the performance model .Methods: All the prescriptions in a week in OUIVA of Shanghai children's medical center were randomly selected .According to the actual difficulty level in the process of outpatient and emergency drug preparation , a basic drug difficulty coefficient and difficulty coefficient addition method was constructed . The difficulty index of every prescription was calculated .All the prescriptions in a week were randomly selected , and according to the difficulty coefficient analysis method , the daily difficulty coefficient of the prescriptions was calculated in order to build a performance model for OUIVA in the hospital .Results:The difficulty coefficient of medicine mainly included four basic difficulty coefficients and nine difficulty addition coefficients .According to the statistics , the average difficulty coefficient of daily prescriptions was (3.83 ± 2.86 )with the highest difficulty coefficient of 35, and the prescription data showed that there was significant difference between outpa -tient and emergency prescriptions and daytime blood tumor prescriptions .Conclusion:A performance model based on the difficulty co-efficient for OUIVA in children ' s hospital is a more scientific reflection to the daily work .
RESUMO
Objective:To analyze the dosage distribution and the frequency of each dosage of high-risk tablets in the hospitalized patients in a children's hospital,and study whether the existing specifications of high-risk tablets meet the pediatrics clinical needs. Methods:All the prescriptions including high risk tablets were analyzed from 2014 to 2016 in Shanghai children's medical center. The frequency of every dosage of every drug was analyzed,and the current specifications were judged according to the frequency. New specifications were proposed when the existing specifications did not match the clinical needs. The new frequency of the proposed speci-fications was re-accounted for all the three-year prescriptions in order to evaluate whether the proposed new specifications met the clini-cal needs. Results:Among the five kinds of high-risk oral tablets,methotrexate tablets and vitamin A acid tablets were in accordance with the actual clinical requirements. Mercaptopurine tablets should add two specifications including 12.5 mg and 17 mg,and warfarin sodium tablets should add one specification(1.25 mg). Hydroxyurea tablets(250 mg) and warfarin sodium tablets(1 mg) were rec-ommended used in the children's hospital. Conclusion:The existing specifications of high-risk oral tablets can't fully meet the clini-cal needs,therefore,specifications still needs to be adjusted.
RESUMO
Objective:To analyze the safety of generics and lactation of commonly used drugs in outpatient and emergency department of a children's hospital in Shanghai to formulate the related high-risk medicines list. Methods:According to the drug directory for outpatient and emergency department in the sample hospital,the medication assistant software was used to check the safety level of the related drugs used during pregnancy and lactation. Drugs with pregnancy safety grade D or X,and the lactation safety grade L4 or L5 involved in the high-risk pregnancy or breast-feeding drug list. Results:Of the 151 kinds of infusion medicines commonly used in outpatient and emergency department in the sample hospital, a total of 118 kinds were with a specified level of pregnancy safety,which accounted for 78.15%,and a total of 86 kinds were with a clear indication of the safety level of lactation,which accounted for 56.95% of the total number of medicines. A total of 25 kinds of drugs labeled pregnancy safety grade D or X, which accounted for 16.56%, and 21 species were with lactation safety L4 or L5, which accounted for 13.90% of the total number of drugs. The drugs with high pregnancy or lactation risk in the outpatient and emergency department of the sample children's hospital were anti-tumor drugs,anti-infective drugs,some cardiovascular drugs and central nervous system drugs. Conclusion:There are still many deficiencies in the information about the safety of pregnancy or breast-feeding in the existing medicines used in the sample hospital,which need to be improved.
RESUMO
Objective: To study the correlation between the empty bottle volume, negative pressure and gas production of the freeze-dried powder in the out-patient pharmacy intravenous admixture center of a children' s hospital in order to provide reference for the drug production. Methods:20 ml Syringes were used to measure the volume of empty bottles, negative pressure and produced gas. The relationship between the theoretical drug dissolution volume and the actual dissolution volume was compared, and the precautions for the drug production were put forward. Results:Among the tested 30 drugs, 6 ones were with the actual dissolution volume half of the theoretical dissolution volume, 8 ones were with negative pressure in the bottles, and 3 ones were with produced gas after dissol-ving. It was appropriate that the empty bottle volume be 4 ml larger than the theoretical dissolution volume, and it was appropriate that the negative pressure volume of drugs was slightly larger than the theoretical dissolution volume. Negative pressure should be still kept in the bottles after the gas production. Conclusion:The design of part of freeze-dried powder injection needle shows defects resulting in drug mixing difficulties to a certain extent.
