OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for rational use of glucocorticoid in the clinic. METHODS:The glucocorti-coid outpatient prescriptions collected from clinical departments of a hospital during Jan. 2013 to Jun. 2015 were analyzed statisti-cally in respects of glucocorticoid use,department distribution,DDDs,distribution of prescription diagnosis,etc. RESULTS:Of 15 000 prescriptions,there were 1 562 glucocorticoid prescriptions,with utilization rate of 10.4%;189 prescriptions were recog-nized as irrational ones,with irrational rate of 12.1%. The proportion of glucocorticoid in otorhinolaryngology department was the highest(27.66%),and irrational drug use was the highest in pediatrics department(16.12%);Dexamethasone injection was the most widely applied(44.88%);most of glucocorticoid prescriptions were used for acute bronchitis and bronchitis(267 pre-scriptions). CONCLUSIONS:The irrational glucocorticoid application has existed in the hospital,which deserved special atten-tion. Hence,prescription check and evaluation should be strengthened to promote the safety and efficacy of glucocorticoid in clini-cal application.

OBJECTIVE:To analyze the application of drugs in the treatment of pediatric bronchial pneumonia,and to provide reference for rational use of drugs in the clinic.METHODS:150 Pediatric cases of bronchial pneumonia in our hospital from Jul.2005 to Mar.2006 were randomly divided to 5 groups(n=30).Each group were given different antibacterial therpy.The hospitalization duration and medical costs were processed and analyzed using PEMS software under cured and discharge condition.RESULTS:Bactericide penicillin or cephalosporin combined with antibacterial drugs erythromycin or clindamycin would lower the antibacterial effect and aggravated economic burden of patients.Penicillin combined with cephalosporin is optimal,the cheapest and time-saving therapy for pediatric bronchial pneumonia.CONCLUSION:The application of drugs for pediatric bronchial pneumonia is reasonable basically.
