ObjectivesTo construct a follow-up evaluation indicator system on the implementation of the WHO resolution of " Access to essential medicines” by systematic review, and to provide a methodological support for tracking the implementation of the resolution, with a view to providing evidence of decision-making to promote the accessibility of essential medicines and further promote and improve the national essential medicine policy. It also provides a methodological reference for investigating the implementation of other public health sector resolutions.MethodsPubMed, EMbase, The Cochrane Library, Web of Science, CBM, WanFang Data and CNKI databases and relevant international or national official websites of pharmaceutical administration department or academic organization were searched to collect studies on accessibility of WHO essential drugs from inception to February, 2016. Two researchers independently screened literature, extracted data, and qualitative analysis was used to sort out and screen the evaluation indicators for the implementation of the WHO resolution of "Access to essential medicines".ResultsA total of 60 relevant literatures, three guides and 19 progress reports of the World Health Assembly from official websites were included. Through the screening of indicators, we could get two parts: the indicators of measures to implement the resolution and the indicators of the results of the implementation of the resolution.ConclusionsThis study analyzes the implementation of the resolution of the health system in the progress report of the World Health Assembly 2013–2015, divides the implementation of the resolution into two parts: the implementation of the resolution and the results of the implementation of the resolution. An indicator system for establishing measures and evaluation the resolution has been found. Expert consultations will be further developed to establish the final indicators for the implementation of the "Access to essential medicines".
ObjectivesTo provide methodology support for the tracking assessment of specific resolution execution through evidence-based construction of tracking assessment index system for resolution execution of WHO essential medicine accessibility resolution, so as to further promote and improve the establishment of national essential medicine policies, and offer a methodology reference to survey and assess the resolution executions in other public health fields.MethodsA multi-disciplinary team was set up to preliminarily construct the index system by means of earlier system assessment index through index screening based on Delphi method. The weight of each index was determined by analytic hierarchy process.ResultsAfter two rounds of expert consultation, the index system available for resolution execution measures and results of WHO essential medicine accessibility were established, including 9 indexes of resolution execution measures. Meanwhile, the execution results of index contained 4 first class indexes, 13 second class indexes and 36 third class indexes. Each of the indexes obtained its own weight according to degree of importance.ConclusionsIn this study, the assessment index for resolution execution of essential medicine accessibility is established, however, the empirical research is still required to further verify the scientificity as well as feasibility of this index system.
Objective To analyze the death constitution of inpatients in The Tibet Autonomous Region People's Hospital from 2014 to 2015 and to provide baseline data for further rational drug use. Methods The medical records of death inpatients between 2014 and 2015 were collected. We classified all diseases according to the international classification of diseases coding (ICD-10) and analyzed the general situation, main death discharge diagnosis and single death diseases. Distribution of inpatients frequency, constituent ratio, cumulative frequency of death diseases were calculated by EXCEL 2007 software. Results (1) A total of 40 147 patients were discharged and 339 (8.44‰) inpatients died between 2014 and 2015. The sex ratio of male to female was 2.08 to 1 for death inpatients. (2) Death constitution of four diseases' categories were over 10%, including circulatory system diseases, exogenous injury or poisoning system diseases, respiratory system diseases, and digestive system diseases. (3) Death constitution of 3 diseases' categories were between 5% to 10%, including tumor, abnormal signs and symptoms, urogenital system diseases. (4) The main death cause single diseases were cerebral hemorrhage diseases, myocardial infarction, respiratory failure, damage, pneumonia, cancer, neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy. Conclusion The main death inpatients of the Tibet Autonomous Region People's Hospital are of the age 25 to 59, and the main death cause diseases are circulatory system diseases.
