Investigation and analysis on drug-related problems of new oral anticoagulants in hospitalized patients
AIM To investigate the use of new oral anticoagulants(NOACs)and clinically relevant drug-related problems(DRPs)in hospitalized patients,in order to provide a reference for promoting the rational use of NOACs.METHODS A total of 586 medical records of inpatients using NOACs at the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University from October 2021 to September 2022 were collected.Retrospective reviews were conducted according to relevant guidelines and regulations.The summary analysis of the observed DRPs was performed with reference to the criteria used in the Chinese Classification System for Drug-Related Problems(V1.0),which is adapted to the Chinese population and healthcare model.RESULTS Among the 586 cases,the majority were females(52.4％),and the average age was(69.5±12.6)years old.The most common indication for the use of NOACs was nonvalvular atrial fibrillation(272 cases,46.4％),which involved three varieties and eight criteria.DRPs occurred in 358 patients,with a total of 389 DRPs identified,including 213(54.8％)DRP1.1,72(18.5％)DRP2.1,4(1.0％)DRP3.1,65(16.7％)DRP3.2,and 35(9.0％)DRP3.3.CONCLUSION The use of NOACs in our hospital are mainly manifested as low single doses,infrequent administration,and lack of indication for medication.
