The incorrect or insufficient prophylaxis of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is common in practice. A clinical pharmacist-led guidance team (CPGT) was established and included in general surgery teams.
This study aimed to evaluate the effects of the CPGT on the improvement of PONV and prophylaxis administration.
A prospective before-after study was conducted on 156 female patients undergoing abdominal surgery at a Chinese tertiary teaching hospital from December 2016 to December 2017. A total of 82 patients were enrolled in the preintervention period, and 74 patients were included in the post-intervention period. The CPGT established the evidence-based criteria for prophylactic anti-emetic administration and conducted interventions, including a review of medical records, provision of feedback, educational outreach, and dedicated support. Primary outcomes included the incidence of PONV within 24 hours of surgery, administered number of prophylactic anti-emetics, and accuracy of the timing for prophylactic anti-emetics. Outcomes were analysed by logistic regression or multivariable linear regression.
After intervention, patients reported significantly less PONV (33.78% vs 56.10%; odds ratio [OR]: 0.29; numbers needed to treat [NNT]: 3.47), vomiting (29.73% vs 45.12%; OR: 0.42; NNT: 5.16) and nausea (31.08% vs 56.10%; OR: 0.24; NNT: 3.19) within 24 hours of surgery. The accuracy of the timing for prophylactic anti-emetics significantly increased (OR: 3.66; P: .003). Anaesthesiologists administered increased numbers of prophylactic anti-emetics (OR: 5.82; P < .001). The improvement of PONV did not decrease during the four-month period after intervention (P: .639).
The CPGT is a valuable service model to continuously improve PONV and optimize prophylaxis administration.
术后恶心和呕吐(PONV)的预防措施不正确或不充分在实践中很常见。成立了一个由临床药师领导的指导小组(CPGT),并将其纳入普通外科团队。
本研究旨在评估 CPGT 对改善 PONV 和预防措施管理的效果。
对 2016 年 12 月至 2017 年 12 月在中国一家三级教学医院接受腹部手术的 156 名女性患者进行了前瞻性前后对照研究。共有 82 名患者纳入干预前,74 名患者纳入干预后。CPGT 为预防止吐药的应用制定了循证标准,并进行了干预,包括病历审查、提供反馈、教育外展和专门支持。主要结果包括术后 24 小时内 PONV 的发生率、预防性止吐药的使用次数以及预防性止吐药的时间准确性。通过逻辑回归或多变量线性回归分析结果。
干预后,患者报告的 PONV(33.78% vs 56.10%;比值比 [OR]:0.29;需要治疗的人数 [NNT]:3.47)、呕吐(29.73% vs 45.12%;OR:0.42;NNT:5.16)和恶心(31.08% vs 56.10%;OR:0.24;NNT:3.19)在术后 24 小时内明显减少。预防用止吐药时间的准确性显著提高(OR:3.66;P:.003)。麻醉师开具了更多数量的预防性止吐药(OR:5.82;P<.001)。干预后四个月内,PONV 的改善并没有减少(P:.639)。
CPGT 是一种有价值的服务模式,可以持续改善 PONV 并优化预防措施的管理。
