- Abstract: OBJECTIVE: To investigate the clinical application of rivaroxaban and analyze the rationality, effectiveness, safety and drug interactions of its clinical application, so as to provide a basis for regulating its clinical application. METHODS: A summary of guidelines or consensus of clinical application experts at home and abroad was made to form a rationality evaluation standard for rivaroxaban. A retrospective survey was conducted on the use of rivaroxaban in all inpatient departments in a hospital in the first quarter of 2018, and the utilization rate of each department was calculated. Through the inclusion criteria, the cases that meet the requirements are analyzed for rationality, efficacy, adverse reactions and drug interactions. RESULTS: In the first quarter of 2018, there were 20 wards and 1 117 cases use of rivaroxaban. The highest utilization rate was the osteological surgery ward, which was mainly used for the prevention of postoperative thrombosis in orthopedics. In the clinical application of rivaroxaban, the prophylaxis or treatment of thromboembolism is mainly performed according to the instructions. The case of irrational rate was 27.14% all 1 028 cases of patients, with insufficient dose, lack of treatment, long course of treatment as the main reason for unreasonable, need to take active intervention measures. The clinical treatment and safety of rivaroxaban were better, with an ineffective rate of 1.17% (12/1 028) and an adverse reaction rate of 9.63% (99/1 028), of which 74.58% (88/118) belonged to hemorrhagic adverse reactions. CONCLUSION: Rivaroxaban is widely used for clinical anticoagulant therapy or prevention, and has good curative effects, but there are irrational usage, especially in terms of dose. During using, it is necessary to pay close attention to hemorrhagic-related adverse reactions. Clinical pharmacists should pay active attention to the update of the clinical application guidelines for drugs and actively communicate with doctors to jointly promote the rational use of rivaroxaban.
