OBJECTIVE To investigate the current status of pharmaceutical care in medical institutions in China， and provide experience and suggestions for better development of pharmaceutical care. METHODS Questionnaire survey was used to investigate the development of pharmaceutical care in medical institutions in 31 provinces （autonomous regions and municipalities directly） in March 2023， and descriptive analysis and binary logistic regression analysis on the influencing factors of pharmaceutical care were conducted. RESULTS A total of 1 368 questionnaires were sent out， and 1 304 valid questionnaires were collected with the effective recovery rate of 95.32%. Pharmaceutical care was carried out in 671 medical institutions （51.46%）， and the rates of pharmaceutical care in tertiary， secondary， primary and other medical institutions were 74.79%， 27.97% and 7.35%， respectively. The average number of patients receiving pharmaceutical care was 2 638.96 per year， and there were 8.33 pharmacists in each medical institution to carry out pharmaceutical care， among which 93.68% were clinical pharmacists. The main departments covered by pharmaceutical care services included respiratory and critical care medicine， cardiology， intensive care unit， endocrinology， oncology， gastroenterology， obstetrics and gynecology and other departments. There were only 48 medical institutions （7.15%） with additional compensation for pharmaceutical care services. The main experiences of developing pharmaceutical care were to pay attention to talent cultivation and discipline construction， but the main difficulties were serious shortage of staff and qualified talents， low compensation level and low enthusiasm. Grade of medical institutions， the number of pharmacists engaged in clinical pharmacy， the number of qualified clinical pharmacists and the degree of information in the pharmacy department were the main influencing factors for carrying out pharmaceutical care （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS In recent years， pharmaceutical care in Chinese medical institutions has made certain progress， while that of primary medical institutions， secondary medical institutions and other medical institutions should be improved. In the future， it is still necessary to further enhance the implementation of pharmaceutical care， promote personnel training， and attach importance to demonstrating the value of pharmaceutical care， thereby promoting the sustainable and high- quality development of pharmaceutical care.

OBJECTIVE To summarize the implementation experiences of the China Hospital Association’s Clinical Pharmacist Instructor Training Program Reform， and to evaluate the effectiveness of the reform， thus continuously enhancing the quality and standards of clinical pharmacist instructor training. METHODS The study drew on project evaluation methodologies to summarize the main characteristics of the comprehensive system and new model for clinical pharmacist instructor training established through the reform by literature review. The “learning assessment” and “reaction assessment” were conducted by using Kirkpatrick’s four-level model of evaluation in order to evaluate the effectiveness of the clinical pharmacist instructor training reform through statistically processing and analyzing the performance data and teaching evaluation data of the instructor participants. Based on problem and trend analysis， the future development directions were anticipated for the reform of clinical pharmacist instructor training. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS The latest round of clinical pharmacist instructor training reform initiated by the Chinese Hospital Association had initially established a four-pronged training system encompassing “recruitment， training， assessment， and management”. It had also forged a training 。 model “oriented towards enhancing clinical teaching competency， with practical learning and skill-based assessment conducted on clinical teaching sites as its core”. Following a period of over three years of gradual reform， the new training system and model became increasingly mature. In both 2023 and 2024， the participants achieved relatively high average total scores in their initial completion assessments [with scores of （84.05± 5.83） and （85.82±4.35） points， respectively]. They also reported a strong sense of gain from the training reform [with self- perceived gain scores of （4.80±0.44） and （4.85±0.39） points， respectively]. The operation and implementation effects of the reform were generally satisfactory. In the future， clinical pharmacist instructor training reforms should continue to address the issues remaining from the current phase， while aligning with global trends in pharmacy education and industry development. Additionally， sustained exploration and practice will be carried out around the core objective of “enhancing clinical teaching competence”.

Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) technology is an important life support method for critically ill patients. A large number of studies have found that ECMO can change the pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters of critically ill patients, thereby affecting the drug effect in vivo. However, there is still a lack of recommendations for the adjustment of commonly used drugs during ECMO support in China, and the selection or dosage adjustment of drugs during ECMO support is not clear. Therefore, a multidisciplinary group of domestic experts in clinical pharmacy and critical care medicine was established by Critical Care Medicine Committee of China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care, and Hospital Pharmacy Committee of China Pharmaceutical Association, to develop the Expert consensus on drug adjustment during extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support (2025). Eight clinical issues of drug adjustment during ECMO support were discussed in this consensus: (1) Why does the patient's demand for drug dosage change during ECMO support? (2) What factors are related to the degree of drug loss during ECMO support? (3) Considering the features of drugs, which types of drugs may need to be adjusted during ECMO support? (4) How to adjust the dosage when using antibacterial drugs during ECMO support? (5) How to adjust antifungal drugs during ECMO support? (6) Does ECMO support change patients' dosage requirements for antiviral drugs? (7) How to adjust sedative and analgesic drugs during ECMO support? (8) Does ECMO support affect the dosage requirement of vasoactive agents? Eighteen consensus are elaborated based on the latest clinical evidence, aiming to provide recommendations for drug adjustment in critically ill patients receiving ECMO support to ensure the safety and effectiveness of medication.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the basic situation of developing pharmacy outpatient departments in Chinese tertiary medical institutions and analyze the influencing factors. METHODS The research targeted the pharmacy outpatient department managers of hospitals and conducted a survey through Sojump in March 2023. Various independent variables were selected from the hospital’s own characteristics， the management of the pharmacy outpatient departments， and the construction of the pharmacist team for Logistic and linear regression analysis， with the aim of separately analyzing the factors influencing the establishment of pharmacy outpatient departments and the factors affecting the total number of patients served by these departments throughout the year 2022. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS A total of 1 304 medical institutions of different levels nationwide participated in this survey， with 714 tertiary hospitals. Among the tertiary hospitals， 377 （52.80%） had established pharmacy outpatient departments， including 321 grade-A tertiary hospitals， 48 grade-B tertiary hospitals and 8 other tertiary hospitals. The 377 tertiary hospitals collectively operated 1 739 pharmacy outpatient departments， covering 19 specialized fields， with the highest proportion found in the cardiovascular field （including anticoagulation） at 16.45%. Tertiary hospitals in North China， Central China， East China and South China regions had more pharmacy outpatient departments. The establishment of pharmacy outpatient departments was found to be influenced by tertiary grade-B status （P＝0.010） and the annual outpatient volume of the hospital （P＝0.008）， although the impact was relatively small. The factors influencing the number of patients served by pharmacy outpatient departments were the annual outpatient volume of the hospital （P＝0.042） and the number of pharmacists engaged in clinical pharmacy work （P＝0.004）. The proportion of tertiary hospitals in China that have established pharmacy outpatient departments is insufficient. It is necessary to further accelerate the construction of pharmacy outpatient departments and appropriately expand the talent pool of hospital pharmacy teams based on the needs of pharmacy outpatient departments and patients， in order to meet the requirements of medical practice and patient care.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the current situation of pharmaceutical clinic service in medical institutions in China and provide experience and suggestions for promoting the development of pharmaceutical clinics. METHODS Questionnaire survey was used to investigate the development of pharmaceutical clinics in medical institutions of 31 provinces （autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the central government） in March to April 2023， and the descriptive analysis was conducted. The regression analysis was carried out for the influential factors of pharmaceutical clinic service. RESULTS A total of 1 368 questionnaires were distributed in this survey and 1 304 valid questionnaires were collected with the effective response rate of 95.32%. A total of 463 medical institutions carried out pharmaceutical clinic service， the rate of which was 35.51% （463/1 304）； the rates of pharmaceutical clinics in tertiary， secondary， primary and other medical institutions were 52.80%， 17.18% and 5.88%， respectively. The frequency of opening pharmaceutical clinics was 3.17 days per week on average， with an average of 5.99 visiting pharmacists in each medical institution. Among the visiting pharmacists， clinical pharmacists accounted for the vast majority （88.68%， 2 459/2 773）. There were various categories of pharmaceutical clinics， including joint clinics and pharmacist-independent clinics； among pharmacist-independent clinics， pharmaceutical specialty/specialty disease clinics were the main ones， accounting for 89.72% of the total number of pharmaceutical clinics. The value of pharmacists in pharmaceutical clinics was manifested in various forms， among which the proportion of medical institutions charging pharmaceutical clinics was 10.80%. The main experiences in developing pharmaceutical clinics were to attach importance to discipline construction and personnel training. The main difficulties in developing pharmaceutical clinics were low compensation levels and a shortage of talent.The number of clinical pharmacists， the number of visiting pharmacists in pharmaceutical clinics and additional compensation were positively correlated with the amount of pharmaceutical clinic services（P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS In recent years， pharmaceutical clinics have made significant progress； in the future， it is still necessary to further strengthen discipline construction and talent cultivation， pay attention to the value embodiment of pharmacists， to promote the healthy development of pharmaceutical clinics.

OBJECTIVE To provide standardized guidance for the clinical application and management of biosimilars， and promote their widespread and rational use in clinical treatment. METHODS The design， planning， and drafting process as well as the full report of Evidence-based Guideline for the Management of Clinical Application of Biosimilars in China （2024 Edition） followed the WHO Handbook for Guideline Development （2nd edition）， which fully considered the best current evidence from evidence-based medicine， multidisciplinary expert experience， and patient preferences and values. Grading of Recommendations Assessment， Development， and Evaluation （GRADE） approach was adopted to evaluate the quality of evidence and determine the strength of recommendations. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS Evidence-based Guideline for the Management of Clinical Application of Biosimilars in China （2024 Edition） presented 10 recommendations including 7 strong recommendations and 3 weak recommendations. The recommendations covered the entire process of clinical application and management of biosimilars. Medical institutions and relevant health regulatory departments can refer to this guideline for the scientific management of the extrapolation of unapproved indications of biosimilars. Healthcare providers can refer to this guideline for pre-treatment assessments， patient education， pre-treatment regimen before administration， and dosage regimen adjustments. Multidisciplinary medical teams can refer to this guideline to provide pharmacovigilance and patient management throughout the treatment process.

OBJECTIVE To provide a reference for the implementation and high-quality development of hospital medication reconciliation. METHODS A semi-structured questionnaire was designed to investigate the implementation of drug reconciliation services in medical institutions before and after the release of 5 standards such as Standard for Medication Reconciliation Services in Medical Institutions（“standards” for short，in 2021 and 2022）. Descriptive statistical analysis was conducted on the survey results. RESULTS After the promulgation of the standards， the medication reconciliation service rate of all types of medical institutions increased from 15.10% （434/2 874） in 2021 to 27.84%（363/1 304） in 2022. In 2022， in the 363 medical institutions providing drug reconciliation services， the median number of pharmacists involved in drug reconciliation was 6. The participation rate of pharmacists in standardized training for drug reconciliation services was 75.00%， among which the participation rate of third-class hospitals was higher， reaching 85.71%. The main stages covered by medication reconciliation services included patient admission， transfer between departments， and discharge. The main problems found in the service included repeated medication （252， 69.42%）， inappropriate usage and dosage （228， 62.81%）， drug interactions and adverse reactions （218， E-mail：cputianxin@163.com 60.06%）. Only 69 institutions （19.01%） had a separate electronic information recording system， while 48 institutions 58516003。E-mail：zhenjiancun@vip.163.com （13.22%） had established comprehensive quality management and evaluation improvement systems. In terms of value embodiment， 141 institutions （38.84%） did not provide any form of compensation to relevant pharmacists. “Closely linked to enhancing patient satisfaction and improving services” was the most significant experience influencing medication reconciliation work（192， 52.89%）， while “the shortage of talent which meet the relevant requirements” stands as the primary challenge faced by medical institutions at all levels（238， 65.56%）. CONCLUSIONS The release of the standards has effectively improved the development rate of medication reconciliation in national medical institutions. However， there is still room for improvement in various aspects， including the allocation of personnel for medication reconciliation services， service content， information management， and the construction of quality control and evaluation systems.

OBJECTIVE To interpret Teacher Training Syllabus for Clinical Pharmacist Training Program （2023 edition） （hereinafter referred as to the “new syllabus”）， and to provide reference and guidance for promoting the implementation of the new syllabus and realizing the quality-improving goal of the reform of the clinical pharmacist teacher training program initiated by China Hospital Association. METHODS From the perspective of the management and based on the position of the designer， the new syllabus was interpreted from four aspects： the background of its compilation and release， the process of its compilation and its characteristics， the key improvements of the program and the points for attention about its subsequent implementation. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS The development and release of the new syllabus provide a “construction blueprint” for the reform of the clinical pharmacist teacher training program of the China Hospital Association. The whole process of compiling the new syllabus is characterized by four basic features： theory-led， goal-oriented， research-based， and synergistic. Compared with the previous syllabus， in addition to the adjustment of the text structure，the new syllabus presents more complete and clearer competence requirements for clinical teaching competence in terms of training objectives； in terms of training content， it further structures the group of task items， pays attention to the 育。E-mail：zhenjiancun@163.com sequential planning and time arrangement of items， and puts forward both quantitative and qualitative refinement requirements for each specific training task；in terms of training methods， it emphasizes the interaction of lecturing， demonstrating and guiding， and the progression of observation， operation and reflection， with the intention of guiding teacher trainees to “learn how to teach by teaching”. In the subsequent implementation of the new syllabus， it is necessary for the teacher training bases to attach great importance to the guarantee of training conditions and process quality management， and to organize the teacher training team to do a good job in the two training programs of “clinical pharmacist training” and “clinical pharmacist teacher training”. Based on further improving the connection between the two training programs， the teacher training team should continue to explore the scientific model of clinical pharmacist teacher training oriented by clinical teaching competence.

OBJECTIVE：To interpret the new version of the Implementation Plan for Enrollment and Assessment of Clinical Pharmacist Teacher Training Project of Chinese Hospital Association （Trial）（hereinafter referred to as the “New Plan ”）officially announced by the Chinese Hospital Association in Sept. 2021，in order to provide guidance and reference for smoothly promoting the implementation of the New Plan and realizing the original intention of the reform. METHODS ：The New Plan was interpreted from four aspects ，including the background of the formulation of the New Plan ，the main features presented ，the innovations and the issues that need to be paid attention to in the next implementation. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS ：The formulation and release of the New Plan marks the beginning of a new round of reform of the clinical pharmacist teacher training program of the Chinese Hospital Association. It is mainly based on the actual problems encountered in the operation of the current clinical pharmacist teacher training system ，the importance of clinical pharmacistteacher training itself ，and the opportunities and challenges that the development of the times has brought to our country ’s 163.com clinical pharmacy business. Research foundation ， problem orientation and professional demonstration present important characteristics. Compared with the old plan ，the New Plan adds a substantive selection mechanism for majors ，which intends to achieve the necessary “strictness”in the enrollment process ；it reconstructs the overall training goal of the benchmarking project and the three-in-one assessment system ，which intends to achieve a reasonable “lax”of assessment link ；it removes restrictions on off-site training ，advocates wide-ranging professional docking，and improves the flexibility of the training system and process management. The implementation of the New Plan is a complex work involving multiple parties and is affected by many factors. It requires multiple teams to perform their duties and promote together. The teacher training base and expert team must understand the spirit of reform and achieve the stable implementation of the New Plan ；at the same time ，the communication between the project working group and the teaching base and experts should be strengthened ，and finally realize the original intention of the reform of cultivating more high-quality clinical pharmacy teachers.
