To teach drug utilization review (DUR) skills to pharmacy students and assess their abilities and confidence before and after training.
Profile reviews and online and live drug-utilization-review activities of increasing difficulty were incorporated into the first (P1), second (P2), and third (P3) years of the Pharmacy Skills Training Laboratory sequence in a doctor of pharmacy (PharmD) curriculum.
An online survey instrument was administered to gauge how comfortable students were with specific DUR skills before and after the activities. Students' confidence in performing specific DUR skills improved after completing the activities.
Profile reviews, as well as online and live medication reviews, gave students numerous opportunities to practice drug utilization review skills throughout the first 3 years of the pharmacy curriculum. Students' confidence in performing specific drug utilization review skills improved after the activities. Students' ability to perform the skills also improved as measured with the developed checklist in section V and VI of the Pharmacy Skills Laboratory sequence.
向药学专业学生传授药物利用评价(DUR)技能,并评估他们在培训前后的能力和信心。
将资料分析以及难度逐渐增加的在线和现场药物利用评价活动纳入药学博士(PharmD)课程的药学技能培训实验室系列课程的第一年(P1)、第二年(P2)和第三年(P3)。
采用在线调查问卷来衡量学生在活动前后对特定DUR技能的掌握程度。完成活动后,学生执行特定DUR技能的信心有所提高。
资料分析以及在线和现场用药评价,为学生在药学课程的前3年提供了大量练习药物利用评价技能的机会。活动后,学生执行特定药物利用评价技能的信心有所提高。根据药学技能实验室系列课程第五节和第六节中制定的检查表衡量,学生执行这些技能的能力也有所提高。
