Objective To investigate drug usage and costs of pneumonia inpatients 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 pneumonia 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 309 inpatients were included, among the 78.96% were more than 60 years old. Among the antibiotics single therapy, the frequency of cefoperazone and sulbactam was the highest. Among the antibiotics combination therapy, the frequency of β-lactam antibiotics was the highest. Conclusion Pneumonia inpatients in Karamay Central Hospital are mainly older patients. The β-lactam antibiotics is used most in clinical practice.
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. Budesonide suspension for inhalation, moxifloxacin needle, doxofylline needle accounted for 32.84%, 31.11% and 45.31% in these three categories of drugs, respectively. Conclusion The mainly drugs for treatment of asthma inpatients in Karamay Central Hospital in 2014 are 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 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.

Objective To evaluate the implementation effects and problems about quota payment of specific diseases for hyperplasia prostate and ureteral calculi in Chengdu. Methods Payments, man-time of operation, and the lengths of hospitalization of hyperplasia prostate and ureteral calculi as quota payment of specific diseases in Chengdu from 2013 to 2015 were analyzed by using SPSS 16.0 software. Results Based on the standards of medical expense limitation in Chengdu unchanged, tertiary and secondary hospitals remained surplus with quota standards of single diseases unchanged. The average lengths of hospitalization of hyperplasia prostate and ureteral calculi in tertiary and secondary hospitals were significantly decreased (P<0.05). Conclusion The application of quota payment policy for single disease in Chengdu city of Sichuan province has been proved to work on controlling the medical expense of treating hyperplasia prostate and ureteral calculi. Our results indicate the continuous implementation of quota payment policy. However, the exploration of proper payment standardization, enhance of hospital supervision and establishment of efficient system are still needed to define.
