OBJECTIVE
To analyze the cost avoidance resulting from clinical interventions made by pharmacy students completing an advanced pharmacy practice experience (APPE) at a psychiatric hospital.
METHODS
A retrospective database review of documented clinical interventions by pharmacy students was conducted to classify interventions by type and significance. Interventions were assigned a cost avoidance value determined by an evaluation of the literature.
RESULTS
Three hundred-twenty interventions were documented by 15 pharmacy students during the 1-year study period. The majority of interventions were related to psychiatric medication classes and most (n = 197; 61.6%) were classified as being of moderate significance. The most common interventions included patient education (13.1%), order clarification (11.6%), therapeutic dosing adjustments (10.9%), and laboratory order monitoring (8.8%). The estimated cost avoidance from all interventions made by pharmacy students was approximately $23,000.
CONCLUSIONS
Pharmacy students completing APPEs at a psychiatric hospital contributed to a variety of significant clinical interventions and provided considerable cost avoidance value to the institution.
目的
分析在精神病医院完成进阶实习（APPE）的药学学生的临床干预所避免的成本。
方法
对药学学生的临床干预进行回顾性数据库审查，以根据类型和重要性对干预进行分类。通过评估文献，为干预分配避免成本的价值。
结果
在为期 1 年的研究期间，15 名药学学生共记录了 320 次干预措施。大多数干预措施与精神药物类有关，其中大多数（n = 197；61.6%）被归类为中度重要性。最常见的干预措施包括患者教育（13.1%）、医嘱澄清（11.6%）、治疗剂量调整（10.9%）和实验室医嘱监测（8.8%）。药学学生所做的所有干预措施估计避免的费用约为 23000 美元。
结论
在精神病医院完成 APPE 的药学学生做出了各种重要的临床干预措施，为机构节省了大量成本。
