ABSTRACT

Objective:To observe the effect of clinical pharmacists on the pain education in the patients with fracture. Methods:A total of 122 fracture patients with ASAⅠ/Ⅱaged 18-80 years were randomly divided into the intervention group (n=61) and the control group(n=61). The control group received the conventional orthopedic treatment..Flurbiprofen was injected for the postopera-tive analgesia,and if the pain VAS score was above 6,pethidine solution was given at the dose of 50 mg immediately. Based on the conventional treatment,the patients in the intervention group were educated by clinical pharmacist one day before the surgery,and then strengthened education was given after the surgery.The pain VAS score,and sleeping quality at 6h,24h,48h and 72h and satisfaction of pain management were compared between the groups.Results:The VAS score of the intervention group was significantly lower than that of the control group at 6 h,24 h,48 h and 72 h after the operation (P<0.05). The scores of sleeping quality in the intervention group at 6 h and 24 h after the operation were higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). The scores of patients' satisfaction were significantly higher in the intervention group than those of the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion: The clinical pharmacist's pain education can improve the degree of pain control and sleeping quality,increase the patients' satisfaction with pain control to a cer-tain extent.
