OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for promoting the priority use of essential medicines. METHODS:The use amount ratio of essential medicines in 2 third-level grade-A hospitals in Beijing from 2011 to 2013 was statistically investigated. And the literatures related to policies of essential medicines and application were retrieved for in-depth analysis. RESULTS:The use amount ratios of essential medicines in the outpatient and emergency departments in Beijing Hospital of Ministry of Health from 2011 to 2013 were respectively 24.04%,23.10% and 22.76%;and the use amount ratios of essential medicines of inpatients were respectively 16.56%,14.52% and 12.04%. The use amount ratios of essential medicines in the outpatient and emergency depart-ments in Beijing Friendship Hospital(a pilot hospitals of cancelling drug addition medical reform)in the 3 years were respectively 21.59%,19.85% and 22.93%;the use amount ratios of essential medicines of inpatients were respectively 17.70%,17.62% and 15.89%. The use amount ratios of essential medicines did not meet 25%-30% of the requirements. CONCLUSIONS:Cancelling the drug addition and adjusting the types and quantity of essential medicine list had no obvious effects on the use amount ratios of gen-eral third-level grade-A hospitals. It is suggested to promote the priority use of essential medicines by systems of medical insurance total amount prepayment,single disease payment or diagnosis related groups-based prepayment and the free policy of essential medi-cines,rather than administrative order.

Objective:To understand the implementation status of case-based payment among healthcare provid-ers and their cognition on the matter. Methods:Semi-structured interview was conducted on 30 purposely selected staff from 9 hospitals in Chengdu. Results:After one-year implementation of case-based payment, hospitals at different level carried out the policy vigorously:executed corresponding expense control measures and management. Neverthe-less, the proportion of cases that were paid with case-based payment was low, moreover the inclusion criteria for case was of disunity and the formulation of the expense standard was ambiguous to some extent. Conclusion:Certain achievements were accompanied with problems, so it is essential to refine reimbursement standards, improve case-based payment, make clear the inclusion criteria for case and extend the covering range of case-based payment in Chengdu. In addition, the medical insurance agency should strengthen the supervision of healthcare providers,and guide them to set up effective incentive mechanism.

Objective To investigate the circadian and seasonal distribution of cardiovascular events (CVE) and the relationship between average monthly temperature and the incidence of CVE. Methods A total of 5837 emergency patients with CVE were enrolled from 1997 to 2007. The exact admission time of each patient was registered. The average monthly temperature data from a regional weather station for this time period was supplied by the meteorological office of the city. The relationship between the average monthly temperature and the incidence of CVE was explored and the corresponding curves were plotted. Results The occurrence of CVE has obvious seasonal variation, and its a higher tendency of episodes was found in spring and winter periods. High incidence of acute myocardial infarction, angina pectoris, acute left-sided heart failure, hypertensive crisis, and sudden death occurred in spring and winter as wee as the time for a change of season, that is, January, February, March, April, October, November, and December. There was a significant negative correlation between the incidence and the average monthly temperature (P<0.005-0.001). Circadian rhythm of CVE was present, with a peak in the early morning and forenoon. Conclusion There are circadian and circannian rhythms of the incidence of CVE. Cold weather condition is a risk factor for the occurrence of CVE, which usually peaks in the early morning and forenoon.

Objective To conduct comparative study on the analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects as well as the acute toxicity of yunaconitine and 8-deacetyl-yunaconitine isolated from the processed products of Aconiti Knsnezoffii Radix.Methods The methods of hot plate test and writhing test were used to evaluate the analgesic effect. Anti-inflammation action was observed by the models of auricle swelling caused by dimethylbenzene. LD50 was determined by the method of Bliss.Results Yunaconitine and 8-deacetyl-yunaconitine have analgesia effect on the pain caused by hot-plate, but there were no statistically significant difference. The pain caused by acetic acid had obvious analgesic action. High and low dose of yunaconitine could significantly reduce the number of mice body torsion and extend the incubation period of pain in mice. The effect of 8-deacetyl-yunaconitine was remarkable only in the high dose. Compared with solvent group, there were little differences in inhibiting effect of auricle swelling caused by dimethylbenzene, and anti-inflammatory action was not exact. The poisonousness of yunaconitine was nearly 20 times of 8-deacetyl-yunaconitine.Conclusion Yunaconitine and 8-deacetyl-yunaconitine may be the analgesic medicine for peripheral analgesic effect. The poisonousness of 8-deacetyl-yunaconitine is less than yunaconitine, the effect is remarkable to the pain caused by acetic acid, and the security is high.
