Objective To explore the appropriate intervention measures to reduce the influence of drug repercussion by pediatric hospital inpatients on nursing work. Method Between March 1st and 28th, 2014, statistical analysis on the characteristics of pediatric drug-return by drug repercussion questionnaires was carried out. Results Each drug repercussion took much time of the nurses (median of 5.00 minutes per time). The frequency of drug repercussion in the internal medicine department was more than that in the surgical department; the most drug repercussions were found in the respiratory medicine department, reaching 26.84%. The main category of drug repercussion was aerosolized medication (39.32%). The drug repercussion mainly resulted from lack of patients' education and doctor-related administration, which had a proportion of 31.44% and 27.19%, respectively. Conclusions The wards which have more drug repercussions should be under the supervision according to the analysis of drug repercussion. Meanwhile, improving patients' education and training of medical staff can reduce the pediatric hospital inpatients' drug repercussion and also may reduce the bad effects on nursing work.
