Abstract

Objective To explore how tertiary hospitals can actually ensure rational use of essential medicines,so as to help public hospitals with active execution of the national guidelines on essential drugs. Methods By reviewing relevant domestic data in a tertiary hospital,a data platform was established for analysis of essential drug utilization in a hospital between 2010 and 2014. The SPSS19. 0 analysis system was used in the analysis. Results The demand for essential medicines by the tertiary sample hospital for clinical treatment between 2010 and 2014 was stable. There was no significant change in essential medicines. The Compound Annual Grawth Rate of essential drug sale amount was 14. 61%. The percentage of essential drug varieties increased to 65. 38% in 2014. However,there was still a gap with the 2012 variety matching degree of National List of Essential Medicines in terms of drug variety selection. Conclusion This tertiary hospital has been paying more attention to the implementation and promotion of essential drug policies and systems in medical institutions,but the percentage of essential medicines was below 25%on average. It is necessary to keep improving the drug use information management system,optimize treatment via pharmacoeconomics evaluation methods,use approved prescriptions,follow doctors’ advice,get corresponding specifications,improve the efficiency of drug use,and to guarantee the safety of drug use.
