Practice Effect of Quality Management for Dismounted Drugs
Objective To improve the quality management level of dismounted drugs,and to reduce the medication risks of dismounted drugs.Methods The quality management of dismounted drugs was implemented by dividing the management levels of dismounted drugs,establishing dynamic adjustment and warning mechanisms for dismounted quantities,standardizing storage and classification labeling,establishing a management system for expiration dates,and formulating quality supervision rules.The monthly average proportion of drug varieties with near expiry date,the proportion of drug varieties with monthly average adjusted dismounted quantity,and the moisture absorption and deterioration of the dismantled drugs before(from January to October 2021)and after the implementation of quality management(from January to October 2022)were compared.Results After the implementation of quality management,the monthly average proportion of drug varieties with near expiry date was(1.32±0.85)%,which was significantly lower than(2.47±0.83)%before the implementation(P=0.007);the proportion of drug varieties with monthly average adjusted dismounted quantity was(6.24±2.26)%,which was significantly higher than(2.52±1.98)%before the implementation(P=0.001);there were three kinds of dismounted drugs showed moisture absorption and deterioration,which was significantly lower than seven kinds of dismounted drugs before the implementation(P<0.05).Conclusion Strengthening the quality management of dismounted drugs can effectively reduce the occurrence of drugs with near expiry date,decrease the amount of moisture absorption and deterioration of dismantled drugs,and improve the timeliness and sustainability of dismounted drugs management.
