Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To improve the research capacity and research enthusiasm of dispensing pharmacists in pharmacy intravenous admixture services (PIVAS), facilitate their career development, and further promote the sustainable development of hospital pharmacy disciplines. METHODS A full-chain pharmacy practice research path covering topic orientation, topic evaluation, and implementation was explored and constructed for PIVAS. Multiple approaches including framework condensation for topic selection, department empowerment and improved incentive mechanisms were adopted to systematically boost the research competence and enthusiasm of PIVAS dispensing pharmacists. Four dimensions of indicators, including PIVAS research output, operational level, career development of staff and external influence, were compared between the pre-implementation period (2020- 2022) and post-implementation period (2023-2025) to evaluate the implementation effect of the path. RESULTS After the application of the PIVAS pharmacy practice research path, the number of published papers and comprehensive quality score of papers increased by 150.00% and 161.90% respectively compared with those before implementation. The number of approved research projects and comprehensive quality score of projects rose by 166.67% and 225.00%, and the number of authorized patents increased by 100.00%. The monthly number of external errors decreased from (0.42±0.18) pieces/month pre-implementation to (0.28±0.23) pieces/month post-implementation (P>0.05). Dispensing efficiency was elevated from (121.83±2.48) bags/(hour· person) to (139.00±3.46) bags/(hour·person) (P<0.05). The research participation rate of PIVAS dispensing pharmacists grew from 15.00% to 50.00%, and the overall satisfaction rate of staff increased from 55.00% to 85.00% (P<0.05). Within the 3 years after path implementation, our hospital PIVAS received a total of 22 trainees from external medical institutions, and the number of external institutional visits increased by 374.07% versus the pre-implementation stage. CONCLUSIONS The constructed pharmacy practice research path for PIVAS can significantly improve PIVAS research output, operational efficiency and external influence, and effectively promote the career growth of dispensing pharmacists working in PIVAS.
