BACKGROUND
The purpose of this paper is to assess the implementation of antimicrobial stewardship (AMS) activities in community pharmacies in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
METHODS
A descriptive cross-sectional study in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi, UAE, was conducted using a validated questionnaire. The questionnaire consisted of four AMS outpatient core elements, namely, commitment, action, tracking and reporting, and education and expertise, with each element containing different associated items. Pharmacy teams' responses were categorized into three levels: low, satisfactory, or high.
RESULTS
Fifty-five pharmacy teams participated. Respondents confirmed implementation of at least one item of each AMS outpatient core element: commitment (94.5%), action (94.5%), tracking and reporting (67.3%), and education and expertise (81.8%). In supporting AMS implementation, surveyed teams scored high (81.8%) for action, satisfactory (65.5%) for education and expertise, low (43.6%) for tracking and reporting, and satisfactory (76.4%) for commitment. Attending antimicrobial stewardship programs was found to be a statistically significant predictor of implementation of antimicrobial stewardship activities ( = 0.048).
CONCLUSIONS
The majority of community pharmacies met the core elements of outpatient antimicrobial stewardship to some degree. There is a significant association between participation in antimicrobial stewardship programs and implementation of antimicrobial stewardship activities by pharmacists in practice.
背景
本文旨在评估阿拉伯联合酋长国（阿联酋）社区药房抗菌药物管理（AMS）活动的实施情况。
方法
在阿联酋阿布扎比酋长国进行了一项描述性横断面研究，采用经过验证的问卷。该问卷由AMS门诊四个核心要素组成，即承诺、行动、跟踪与报告以及教育与专业知识，每个要素包含不同的相关项目。药房团队的回答分为三个级别：低、满意或高。
结果
55个药房团队参与。受访者确认实施了每个AMS门诊核心要素的至少一项：承诺（94.5%）、行动（94.5%）、跟踪与报告（67.3%）以及教育与专业知识（81.8%）。在支持AMS实施方面，接受调查的团队在行动方面得分高（81.8%），在教育与专业知识方面满意（65.5%），在跟踪与报告方面低（43.6%），在承诺方面满意（76.4%）。参加抗菌药物管理计划被发现是抗菌药物管理活动实施的统计学显著预测因素（ = 0.048）。
结论
大多数社区药房在一定程度上符合门诊抗菌药物管理的核心要素。药剂师参与抗菌药物管理计划与实践中抗菌药物管理活动的实施之间存在显著关联。
