Abstract:
Objective:To evaluate the clinical application of vancomycin in a cancer hospital in order to promote the rational use of vancomycin. Methods:The records of 66 patients treated with vancomycin in 2015 were reviewed and analyzed in the respects of in-dications of medication, pathogenic examination, usage and dosage, course of treatment, drug combination, drug monitoring and drug utilization index(DUI). Results:Among the 66 cases, most drug use was rational, which accounted for 69. 70% with DUI of 0. 82. There were still several types of irrational drug use including no medication indications, irrational usage and dosage, too long or too short course of treatment, irrational combination and prophylactic use time. Conclusion:The application of vancomycin is basically ra-tional, while irrational phenomenon still exists. The management and supervision should be further strengthened in order to promote clinical rational drug use and ensure medication safety of patients.
