China Pharmacy 2016;27(20):2864-2866
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the methods and breakthrough point of clinical pharmacist participating in the consulta-tion for Acinetobacter baumannii infection cases,in order to improve the level of clinical rational drug use. METHODS:The con-sultation records of 39 A. baumannii infection cases in neurology department of our hospital during 2013-2014 were analyzed retro-spectively. The patients’general condition,site of infection,bacterial culture and drug sensitivity test were analyzed statistically as well as drug regimen before and after consultation,disease condition,lab indexes and nutritional status. RESULTS:A. baumannii were found in sputum culture of all patients,among which there were 11 cases of multiple resistant bacteria(28.2%),13 cases of pan resistant bacteria (33.3%),8 cases of drug resistant A. baumannii (20.5%) and 7 cases of non-multiple resistant bacteria (17.9%). The most widely used drug was minocycline (average dose of 0.2 g/d),followed by cefoperazone-sulbactam (average dose of 9 g/d),ceftazidime (average dose of 6 g/d), etimicin (average dose of 0.27 g/d),amikacin (average dose of 0.4 g/d). The antibacterial daily doses were higher than before. 3 patients were recommended to use fosfomycin. Before consultation,2 pa-tients didn’t received antibiotics (5.1%),and there were 13 cases of single drug (33.4%),22 cases of two-drug combination (56.4%)and 2 cases of three-drug combination(5.1%). After consultation,none of patients didn’t received antibiotics(0),and there were 7 cases of single drug (17.9%),26 cases of two-drug combination (66.7%) and 6 cases of three-drug combination (15.4%). After the consultation,body temperature,symptom and infection indexes of patients got better. Clinical pharmacists ad-justed nutrition program of 12 patients (30.8%) and expecterant program of 9 patients (23.1%). Compared with before consulta-tion,oubumin level of 11 patients (28.2%) and prealbumin level of 20 patients (51.3%) were all increased. CONCLUSIONS:Clinical pharmacist should formulate reasonable therapeutic regimen and reduce irrational drug use according to infection and physi-cal condition. They should provide anti-infective regimen,at the same time,pay attention to the adjustment of expectorant regimen and nutrition support program.

China Pharmacy 1991;0(02):-
OBJECTIVE:To guide the rational use of anti-epileptic drugs(AEDs)in clinical practice.METHODS:In a retrospective review,there were733patients in Xuanwu hospital who suffered from poor curative effect or intoxication of AEDs from March2000to March2001.The results of blood concentration of anti-epileptic drugs(AEDs Css)were ana?lyzed.RESULTS:The Css of37.6%of the patients were within the normal Css range,and6.4%were higher and55.9%were lower than the normal.In combined use of AEDs and other drugs,79.1%of the patients had higher or lower Css than nor?mal.In addition,chemosynthetic components were detected in90%of the patients who took Chinese medicine.Among them,86%of the patients had abnormal Css.CONCLUSION:Css monitoring should be done when AEDs were administrated.It is advisable to use only one or two kinds of AEDs,and to pay attention of the chemosynthetic components in Chinese medicine.
8.Analysis of Antibiotic Drug Use in Elderly Patients with Cerebral Infarction Complicated with Pulmonary Infection Consulted by Clinical Pharmacist
China Pharmacist 2017;20(7):1246-1249
Objective: To investigate the rational use of antibiotics in the elderly patients with cerebral infarction complicated with pulmonary infection.Methods: A retrospective investigation was used to analyze the drug resistance of 86 cases of elderly patients with cerebral infarction complicated with pulmonary infection.The data were collected from the consultation records of clinical pharmacists in Xuanwu hospital from February 2013 to November 2015.Results: The pathogenic bacteria mainly distributed to Acinetobacter baumannii and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and the drug resistance rate was 48.89%.After the consultation, the rate of combination therapy increased from 20.23% to 61.63%.After using sensitive antibiotics, such as cefperazone-sulbactam,piperacillin-sulbactar and amikacin, the infectious indices recovered significantly (P<0.05).The case proportion with BUN/SrCr>20 in 27 cases complicated with impaired renal function was 62.9%, and although the patients didn''t use antibiotics with reduced doses, the indices of infection and renal function improved in a certain degree (P<0.05).The case proportion with ALB and PAB decreasing was 53.49%, and after the consultation, all the infectious indices decreased and protein levels increased (P<0.05).Conclusion: More attention should be paid to the elderly patients with cerebral infarction complicated with pulmonary infection, and sensitive antibiotics with single or combination drug therapy should be used according to the distribution of resistant bacteria.For the renal failure patients, the kind of renal failure should be clear, and then the appropriate dosage of antibiotics should be adjusted.For the patients with malnutrition, adequate protein intake contributes to the recovery of infection.The clinical symptoms and laboratory indices should be integrated to effectively develop rational treatment for the elderly patients with cerebral infarction complicated with pulmonary infection.
