Objective To investigate constitution and costs of inpatients with respiratory disease in the Karamay Central Hospital in 2014 and provide baseline data for further evidence-based study. Methods The information of drug use and expenditure of respiratory diseases were collected from the Hospital Information System (HIS). We analyzed the data by Microsoft Excel 2007 software, including the frequency, proportion and cumulative proportion. Results ① A total of 3 306 inpatients with respiratory disease were included, the top three diseases were bronchopneumonia, pneumonia and pulmonary infection, respectively. ② The Han-other people ratio in inpatients with respiratory diseases higher than average ratio in this city, the top three were bronchial asthma (non-severe) (40.21%), bronchopneumonia (38.14%) and acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) (36.27%), respectively. ③ The top three hospital stay and costs per capita were pulmonary infection, COPD and bronchial asthma (non-severe), respectively. Conclusion Bronchopneumonia, pulmonary infection, bronchial asthma and COPD are selected as the priority for evidence-based study.

Objective To investigate drug usage and costs of inpatients with asthma in Karamay Central Hospital in 2014 and to provide baseline for evidence-based pharmacy study of single disease in respiratory system. Methods The information of drug use and expenditure of asthma inpatients were collected from the hospital information system (HIS). We analyzed the data including frequency, proportion and cumulative proportion by Excel 2007 software. Results A total of 150 asthma inpatients were included, the average age was 56.25±18.83 years old. Three kinds of the most commonly used drugs were corticosteroids, antibiotics and antiasthmatic drugs.

The frequency of systemic corticosteroids is too high, and the frequency of antimicrobial use is irrational, which needs further specification.
Objective To investigate drug usage and costs of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) inpatients in Karamay Central Hospital in 2014 and to provide evidence and reference for evidence-based pharmacy study on COPD. Methods The information of drug use and expenditure of COPD inpatients were collected from the hospital information system (HIS). We analyzed the data including frequency, proportion and cumulative proportion by Excel 2007 software. Results A total of 194 inpatients with COPD/AECOPD were included in Karamay Central Hospital in 2014, the average age was 74.28±7.81 years old.

The top three used drugs were budesonide suspension, montelukast tablets and methylprednisolone injection. In total expenditure, the cost of piperacillin-tazobactam, imipenem/cilastatin and moxifloxacin injection ranked top three. Conclusion The top 3 used drugs are budesonide suspension, montelukast tablets and methylprednisolone injection for COPD inpatients in Karamay Central Hospital in 2014, while the top 3 total expenditure drugs are piperacillin-tazobactam, imipenem/cilastatin and moxifloxacin injection.
Objective To investigate drug usage and costs of children inpatients with bronchopneumonia in Karamay Central Hospital in 2014 and to provide baseline for evidence-based pharmacy study of single disease in respiratory system. Methods The information of drug use and expenditure of children inpatients with bronchopneumonia were collected from the hospital information system (HIS). We analyzed the data including frequency, proportion and cumulative proportion by Excel 2007 software. Results A total of 890 children inpatients were included, the average age was 1.00±2.17 years old. Among the antibiotics of single therapy, the frequency of amoxicillin and clavulanate potassium for injection was highest.
