Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To provide basis for the further implementation of the national essential medicine system in township hospitals. METHODS:By issuing questionnaires,an investigation was made on the basic information of township hospitals imple-menting“Health Ⅺ project”in Heilongjiang Province before and after the implementation of the national essential medicine system. Prescriptions of 4 days in 2008 and 2012 were extracted,statistically compared and analyzed by using random system cluster sam-pling medication rationality was evaluated. RESULTS:40 questionnaires and 3 173 prescriptions were recycled during the investiga-tion in 2009,and 40 questionnaires and 4 197 prescriptions were recycled in 2013. Compared with the township hospitals in project areas in 2008,the proportion of practice(assistant)physicians per township hospitals and the average number of beds were respec-tively increased by 1.5%and 4.6 in 2012. The average kind of prescription drugs was decreased from 2.9 kinds to 1.7 kinds,the us-age rate of infusion was decreased from 46.5%to 30.6%,antibiotics was decreased from 61.5%to 40.0%,two or more kinds anti-biotics was decreased from 18.9% to 4.8%,hormone was decreased from 11.9% to 4.2% and the rate of combined use of antibiot-ic and hormone was decreased from 9.2% to 2.8%;the drug expenditure of each outpatient service and hospitalization was respec-tively decreased 19.1% and 16.4%. There were significant differences(P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:After the implementation of na-tional essential medicine system,the medication rationality of township hospitals in project areas has made great improvement,es-pecially on the aspects of prescription drug number,the combined usage rate of antibiotic and hormone,the usage of hormone and the drug expense burden,which reaches the policy targets;although the infusion rate and the usage of antibiotic show great im-provements,there are still some gaps between the current situation and the policy targets;the obvious decrease of the average drug expenditure of each service doesn’t make a relative decrease of the average expenditure of each medical service,which has a little increase.
