Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the effects of clinical pharmacists participating in clinical pathway management for chron-ic heart failure(CHF). METHODS:A total of 107 CHF adult inpatients in Linyi People's Hospital during Jan. 2014-Oct. 2015 were divided into control group(56 cases,3 withdrawal,53 in total)and trial group(58 cases,4 withdrawal,54 in total)accord-ing to random number table. Control group received routine clinical pathway management method of CHF;trial group received clin-ical pathway management with the participation of clinical pharmacists. Clinical efficacy,the utilization of heart failure drugs,eco-nomic indexes,medication compliance after discharge,re-hospitalization rate due to heart failure were compared between 2 groups. RESULTS:Total response rate of trial group was significantly higher than control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). The utilization rate of ACEI/ARB,β-receptor blocker,target dose rate of ACEI/ARB in trial group were significantly higher than control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05);target dose rate of β-receptor blocker was higher than control group,without statistical significance(P>0.05). Hospitalization time,drug cost,total hospitalization cost and drug ratio of trial group were short-er or lower than control group,without statistical significance(P>0.05). One month after discharge,the proportion of medication compliance in trial group was significantly higher than control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05);re-hospitalization rate was lower than control group,without statistical significance(P>0.05). Three months after discharge,the proportion of medica-tion compliance in trial group was higher than control group,while re-hospitalization rate was lower than control group,with statis-tical significance(P<0.05). CONCIUSIONS:The participation of clinical pharmacists in clinical pathway management of CHF can significantly improve the utilization rate of recommended drugs by guideline,clinical efficacy and medication compliance,and reduce re-hospitalization rate.
