Promoting Rational Medication Management in the Stroke Center under DRGs Payment
Based on the data from cases admitted to the stroke center and included in the BR23 dis-ease group from June 2022 to December 2023,through collaborative interventions from various hospital de-partments,the FOCUS-PDCA tool was employed to optimize rational drug use and DRGs-related indicators.Clinical pharmacists mainly carried out rational drug use management through activities such as drug use advocacy,participation in clinical pathways management,prescription review,case evaluations,pharmaceuti-cal services and reviewing drug plans for DRGs with excessive expenditures.The results showed that com-pared to the pre-intervention period,the post-intervention period achieved decreases in the number of drug categories,drug expenditure ratio,proportion of expenditure on monitored drug categories,hospitalization day,DRGs overpayment rate,and overpayment inpatient expense(P<0.05);while the proportion of national essential drug expenditure increased(P<0.05).
