Analysis on the Use of Antibacterial Drugs Under the Centralized Drug Procurement Policy——Taking a Tertiary Hospital in Zhejiang Province as an Example
Objective:The paper analyzes the use of antibacterial drugs in a tertiary hospital of Zhejiang Province under the centralized drug procurement policy,in order to provide a reference for the rational clinical use of antibacterial drugs and the orderly promotion of centralized procurement.Methods:We extract data on the use of antibacterial drugs before and after the implementation of the centralized drug procurement policy from the hospital information system,analyze indicators such as defined daily doses,defined daily dose cost,cost savings,and generic drug substitution rate,and explore the impact of the policy on the clinical use of antibacterial drugs.Results:After the implementation of the centralized drug procurement policy,defined daily doses of various types of antibacterial drugs have increased or decreased to varying degrees,and defined daily dose cost has shown an overall downward trend.The average potential cost savings are 590600 yuan one year,and the utilization rate of selected drugs reaches 85.31%.The substitution rate of generic drugs has increased from 33.21%to 83.18%.Conclusion:The centralized procurement of antibacterial drugs has optimized the medication structure,and reduced the economic burden on patients.From the perspective of clinical pharmacists,it is recommended to further strengthen the monitoring and management of antibacterial drugs,and steadily promote the normalization of policies.
