OBJECTIVE:To explore an emergency drug supply mechanism for women and children’s special hospital during earthquake disaster. METHODS: The practice of drug supply in our hospital after "5?12" Wenchuan earthquake was analyzed. RESULTS: The daily and post-earthquake medicine supply of the hospital was guaranteed,including the drugs which supply to the medical treatment rescues team in the disaster area;and the principle and approach of emergency drug supply in women and children's special hospital during earthquake disaster has been established. CONCLUSIONS: The emer-gency drug supply in women and children’s special hospital should cover drugs used for wounded women and children in addition to those special drugs used for earthquake injuries. All the links including drug plan,drug purchase,quantity monitoring and drugs needed for rescue should be considered in detail to form a fast and smooth hospital emergency drug supply mechanism.

OBJECTIVE:To strengthen management of hospital drug storehouse.METHODS:According to Joint Commission International (JCI) accreditation,management of drug storehouse was guided through perfecting working system,workflow,qualification confirmation of employees,reasonable management of drug stock and information management,etc.Related investigation and discussion were carried out.RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS:Management of hospital drug storehouse combining with JCI accreditation and quality assurance system of drug storehouse management can improve workflow and management of drug storehouse,guaranteeing efficiency and quality of drug supply.

OBJECTIVE: To provide references for the practice of the zero inventory management mode in hospital drug supply storeroom.METHODS: The zero inventory management mode in hospital drug supply storeroom was summarized based on experiences of hospital drug supply storeroom management in our hospital.RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS: After introduction of zero inventory management principle in hospital drug supply storeroom,the drug turnover frequency in our hospital reached 8～9 times every quarter,which has greatly lowered drug storage costs,activated the working capital,and brought down the proportion of drug fund to as low as about 15% of total hospital working capital.Therefore,establishing a reasonable managing mode suitable to hospital condition and applying zero inventory principle in the management of hospital drug supply storeroom are of importance for lowering hospital running cots and enhancing working efficiency.

OBJECTIVE:To construct a high-efficiency, high-performance, low-cost flow of drug purchasing. METHODS: The defects involved in the current drug purchasing flowsheet prevalent in many hospitals were analyzed and the optimized flowsheet was put into practice by combining the actuality of our hospital. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS: The traditional drug purchasing modality can not meet the requirement of current hospitals in that it involves large work load and high probability of error, and it is tedious and time-consuming. The establishment of drug catalog database and the online drug purchase by means of instant communication software can help simplify drug purchase flow, lessen work load, enhance work efficiency, and effectuate a high-efficiency, high-performance, low-cost flow of drug purchasing.

Objective To investigate the research status and the research hotspots on male nurses at home and abroad in last decade,so as to provide references for further research in male nurses.Methods Literature between 2013 and 2024 on male nurses were retrieved from the Web of Science(WOS)and CNKI.CiteSpace 6.2.6 R7 software was used to analyse the volume of publication,keyword co-occurrence,keyword clustering and emergence.Results A total of 736 articles were included in the study.From 2013 to 2023,the number of published papers of male nurses in CNKI and WOS showed an increasing trend.The research was primarily affiliated with 263 institutions across 62 countries.The country with the highest volume of publication is China,followed by the United States,although there was a need to enhance collaboration with other nations.The institution with the most publications is the Hong Kong Polytechnic University.A comprehensive analysis of keyword co-occurrence,clustering,and emerging trends revealed that the research hotspots in the field of male nursing in CNKI mainly includes the advantages of male nurses,psychological capital,humanistic care,development,needs,professional identification.Whereas WOS focuses on the topics such as gender bias against male nurses,mental health,workplace violence,ambivalent sexism,motivational barriers,individual differences,societal prejudice and knowledge and attitucle.Both domestic and international research on male nurses primarily consist of cross-sectional surveys and qualitative studies,with fewer intervention studies.Currently,the researches regarding male nursing focus on the qualitative study of mental health of male nurses.Conclusion Focusing on the mental health and professional status of male nurses,domestic scholars need to increase the formulation and implementation of interventions in this field in order to address the practical issues faced by male nurses,therefore to promote the comprehensive development of the nursing profession,enhance the overall quality and service quality of the nursing team,and provide patients with higher quality in nursing services.
