During patient care rounds with the medical team, pharmacy students have made positive contributions for the benefit of the patient. However, very little has been documented regarding the impact these future healthcare professionals are making while on clinical rotations. The objective of this study was to assess the impact that clinical interventions made by 6th year pharmacy students had on overall patient outcome. Using a special program for a personal digital assistant (PDA), the students daily recorded the pharmacotherapeutic interventions they made. The interventions ranged from dosage adjustments to providing drug information. Data was collected over a 12-week period from various hospitals and clinics in the Jacksonville, Florida area. In total, there were 89 pharmaceutical interventions performed and recorded by the students. Fifty interventions involved drug modification and fifty-four interventions were in regards to drug information and consulting. Of the drug information and consulting interventions, 15 were drug modification. This study shows the impact pharmacy students make in identifying, recommending, and documenting clinical pharmacotherapeutic interventions. Similar to pharmacists, pharmacy students can also have a positive contribution towards patient care.
在与医疗团队进行患者护理查房期间，药学专业学生为患者的利益做出了积极贡献。然而，关于这些未来的医疗保健专业人员在临床轮转期间所产生的影响，记录却非常少。本研究的目的是评估六年级药学专业学生所进行的临床干预对患者总体结局的影响。学生们使用一款针对个人数字助理（PDA）的特殊程序，每天记录他们所进行的药物治疗干预。这些干预措施包括剂量调整以及提供药物信息。数据是在12周的时间内从佛罗里达州杰克逊维尔地区的多家医院和诊所收集的。学生们总共进行并记录了89次药物干预。其中50次干预涉及药物调整，54次干预是关于药物信息和咨询。在药物信息和咨询干预中，有15次是药物调整。这项研究显示了药学专业学生在识别、推荐和记录临床药物治疗干预方面所产生的影响。与药剂师类似，药学专业学生也能对患者护理做出积极贡献。
