Abstract:
Objective:To explore the feasibility of pharmacy trusteeship in Shanghai medical institutions to provide useful informa-tion for the reform of medicine without added profit and pharmacy transition to clinical pharmacy. Methods: On-site investigation of seven hospitals and one famous drug retail company in Shanghai was performed combined with the communication with relative person-nel and non-random sampling questionnaire survey on the staff of pharmacy. Statwing software was used in the statistical analysis of the data. Results: A total of 93 valid questionnaires in the study were taken back. Although one hospital has achieved great progress in pharmacy trusteeship, most of respondents had negative attitudes and the common thought was that pharmacy trusteeship did more harm than good to the development of clinical pharmacy at present. Conclusion: As a consequence of drug zero interest policy and clinical pharmacy development, pharmacy trusteeship should be explored and attempted. The duties and responsibilities of all parts in pharma-cy trusteeship should be definite in law in order to standardize drug retail market and protect the interests of patient.
