Objective To provide a reference for the development of intelligent pre-review system of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)prescriptions.Methods From the perspectives of the rules of TCM prescription review and the supply of relevant talents,the problems in the intelligent review of TCM prescriptions were analyzed based on the relevant literature and work practice,the causes were analyzed based on professional characteristics,and targeted suggestions were proposed.Results Due to the differences in the systems of TCM and western medicine,there were some problems in the prescription review by software,for example,it was difficult to formulate unified criterion for the suitability of indications and dosages.The professional supports from traditional Chinese pharmacists were urgently required in the prescription review by software,which made the problem of insufficient traditional Chinese talents becoming increasingly prominent.The shortage of traditional Chinese pharmacists and the difference of training direction in universities with the required skills for prescription review were the two main factors leading to the shortage of reviewers.Conclusion In order to improve the level of TCM prescription review and promote the intelligence of related work,it is suggested that we should establish a high-quality TCM prescription review team starting with talent cultivation;at the same time,the traditional Chinese pharmacists should play a leading role,the prescription review rules should be formulated step by step based on the work characteristics of TCM to form a rational and practical intelligent pre-review system of TCM prescriptions.
