ABSTRACT Objective:Investigate the effect of clinical pharmacist intervention on the application of antimicrobial agents in pediatric inpatients. Methods: Sixty four parts of pediatric inpatient medical records before intervention (June 2012) and 102 parts of records after intervention (December 2012) were taken.Compare antimicrobial drug use indicators. Results:①Before intervention, the selection of antimicrobial agents were restricted and special class of antibacterial drugs, the top three durg of DDDs were mezlocillin/sulbactam, cefmetazole, cefazolin. After intervention, the useage of non restricted antimicrobial agents increased significantly and no special class of antimicrobial agents were chosen;the top three durg of DDDs were mezlocillin/sulbactam, cefmetazole, cefodizime.②After intervention, the rationality of antimicrobial agents was improved:the usage rate of antibiotics dropped from 100% to 84.3%(P<0.01). Unreasonable utilization rate fell from20.3%to 6.9% (P<0.05).Two drug utilization from 23.4% down to 7.0%(P<0.01), triple usage from 3.1% down to 0% (P>0.05). Non restricted antibiotic usage rose from 0% to6.5%, while the special class of antibiotic usage down from 7.2% to 0% (P<0.01). Unreasonable exchange rate dropped from 70% to 35.7% (P<0.05).Conclusion: Clinical pharmacist intervention to promote the rational use of antimicrobial agents. |
