Abstract:
Objective To apply intervention of integrated pharmaceutical care (IPC) for asthma-COPD overlap syn-drome patients,so as to reduce the side effects of drugs,enhance medication compliance,promote reasonable drug application,cut down the medical expenses in ACOS patients. Methods A total of 60 ACOS patients were randomly divided into IPC group (group A) (n=34) and contrast group(group B) (n=26).The patients in group A were given IPC measurements such as noso-comial guidance,classroom teaching,regular follow-up,life coaching and psychological advice.While the patients in group B were not given any intervention measures. Results In group A,patients' awareness rate of action and side-effects of drugs were ob-viously increased;Knowledges of inhalation preparation were greatly improved;the ratio of ADRs was significantly reduced;The FEV1 and the value added of FEV1 was dramatically improved.Furthermore,the differences showed statistical significance as com-pared with group B(P<0.05).Total medical costs and anti-bacterial drug costs per year were significantly lower in group A than group B. Conclusion IPC is beneficial to enhance drug compliance,promote reasonable drug application and bring down the medical expenses in ACOS patients.
