Investigation on the current status of pharmaceutical care in medical institutions in China
To investigate the current status of pharmaceutical care in medical institutions in China, and provide experience and suggestions for better development of pharmaceutical care.
METHODS
2
Questionnaire survey was used to investigate the development of pharmaceutical care in medical institutions in 31 provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities directly) in March 2023, and descriptive analysis and binary logistic regression analysis on the influencing factors of pharmaceutical care were conducted.
RESULTS
2
A total of 1 368 questionnaires were sent out, and 1 304 valid questionnaires were collected with the effective recovery rate of 95.32%. Pharmaceutical care was carried out in 671 medical institutions (51.46%), and the rates of pharmaceutical care in tertiary, secondary, primary and other medical institutions were 74.79%, 27.97% and 7.35%, respectively. The average number of patients receiving pharmaceutical care was 2 638.96 per year, and there were 8.33 pharmacists in each medical institution to carry out pharmaceutical care, among which 93.68% were clinical pharmacists. The main departments covered by pharmaceutical care services included respiratory and critical care medicine, cardiology, intensive care unit, endocrinology, oncology, gastroenterology, obstetrics and gynecology and other departments. There were only 48 medical institutions (7.15%) with additional compensation for pharmaceutical care services. The main experiences of developing pharmaceutical care were to pay attention to talent cultivation and discipline construction, but the main difficulties were serious shortage of staff and qualified talents, low compensation level and low enthusiasm. Grade of medical institutions, the number of pharmacists engaged in clinical pharmacy, the number of qualified clinical pharmacists and the degree of information in the pharmacy department were the main influencing factors for carrying out pharmaceutical care (

CONCLUSIONS
2
In recent years, pharmaceutical care in Chinese medical institutions has made certain progress, while that of primary medical institutions, secondary medical institutions and other medical institutions should be improved. In the future, it is still necessary to further enhance the implementation of pharmaceutical care, promote personnel training, and attach importance to demonstrating the value of pharmaceutical care, thereby promoting the sustainable and high-quality development of pharmaceutical care.
