Abstract:
OBJECTIVE：To provide evidence for promoting the scientific resea rch ability and talent team construction of hospital pharmacists. METHODS ：From Dec. 2019 to Apr. 2020，“Survey Form for Scientific Research Ability of Hospital Pharmacists”were issued to pharmacists in 62 medical institutions from 20 provinces across the country. The questionnaire was mainly based on five aspects ，i.e. general information of surveyed pharmacists ，the number of internal/external funds and patents approved in recent five years （2015-2019），the number of papers published in domestic/abroad/SCI journals ，the familiarity with scientific research projects ，the difficulties in carrying out scientific research. The collected data were summarized and analyzed with R 4.0.3 software. RESULTS ：A total of 300 questionnaires were sent out ，and 288 valid questionnaires were collected with effective recovery rate of 96％. Among surveyed pharmacists ，94 were male and 194 were female. The majority of them were 31-39 years old （52.78％）；56.25％，28.12％ and 15.63％ of them had bachelor ’s degree ，master’s degree and doctor ’s degree respectively，and 156（54.17％）had intermediate title. Totally 74.66％ of hospital pharmacists thought it was very necessary or necessary to carry out research projects （involving all doctors ，26 masters and 4 bachelors）. There were significant differences among pharmacists with different educational background in respects of the number of applications for internal and external funds and patents ，as well as the number of papers published in domestic/foreign/SCI journals ，and most of them were doctors （P＜ 0.05）. In recent five years ，most of hospital pharmacists had published 1-3 papers in domestic journals ，accounting for 44.80％， while 27.08％ had published papers in SCI journals. Totally 51.39％ of hospital pharmacists were not familiar or not very familiar with scientific research projects funding （most of them had bachelor ’s degree ）；52.43％ expressed that experimental conditions were the biggest difficulty in conducting scientific research. CONCLUSIONS：This survey shows that hospital pharmacists have a relatively positive attitude towards scientific researchprojects. Most of papers are published in domestic journals. 8804919。E-mail：songjc1234@126.com However， there are still many shortcomings in scientific research status. Scientific research capabilities need to be improved. Experimental conditions also limit the scientific research projects to a certain extent. Hospitals need to strengthen funding for pharmacist research projects ，strengthen academic exchanges ， so that pharmacists can understand scientific research projects more comprehensively and systematically.
