ObjectiveTo investigate the management methods of drug repercussion and its intervention measures in the Burn and Plastic Surgery Department by analyzing the reasons for drug repercussion. MethodBased on the drug repercussion data provided by the computer information center, we analyzed the common reasons and the status quo of drug repercussion. Active intervention measures were carried out, and real-time supervision and feedback of drug repercussion management were also performed. We compared such repercussion indexes before intervention (between May and September 2013) and after intervention (between October 2013 and February 2014):number of drug repercussion patients, times of drug repercussion, amount of money involved in drug repercussion, ratio of drug repercussion and dispensing and comprehensive ranking of the drug repercussion in the whole hospital. ResultsAfter intervention, the ranking of the causes of drug repercussion changed obviously. Changing orders casually dropped to the 3rd of the rank, and changing the department based on necessity rose from the 4th to the 2nd. All the indexes (including the times, number, and amount of money of drug of repercussion, and the ratio of repercussion and dispensing and compreheasive rank) reduced significantly (P<0.05). ConclusionsActualizing active intervention measures redounds to reducing drug repercussion, standardizing clinical use of drugs, insuring safety, and advancing the satisfaction of patients and quality of medical nursing.
