Abstract:
Objective:To investigate and analyze the allocation and use of the common pediatric medical equipment and drugs in community health service centers, so as to provide decision-making reference for further strengthening the capacity-building of community children′s health services.Methods:Using multi-stage stratified random sampling method, 30 community health service centers in 14 cities were selected to investigate the basic situation of the sample centers, and the allocation and use of 21 kinds of commonly used pediatric medical equipment and 23 kinds of commonly used children′s drugs from April to August 2020.Results:The overall allocation rate of 21 commonly used pediatric medical equipment in the sample centers was 61.9%, and the overall utilization rate was 62.6%. The overall allocation rate of 23 commonly used drugs for children in the sample centers was 46.67%, and the overall utilization rate was 31.1%. There was a statistically significant difference in the utilization rate of equipment among different levels of urban community health service centers ( P<0.05); There were statistically significant differences in the allocation rate of commonly used children′s drugs among community health service centers under different regions, cities at different levels, types of jurisdictions, and institutional types ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The overall allocation and utilization rate of commonly used pediatirc medical equipment and drugs in urban community health service centers in China were relatively low, especially the drug utilization rate. The author suggested that the government should further strengthen the construction of grassroots pediatric diagnosis and treatment service capabilities, and reasonably equip commonly used pediatric medical equipment and drugs at the grassroots level.
