Quality assurance criteria for a pharmacist-conducted oral anticoagulant teaching program were studied. The teaching program involved the presentation of descriptive diagrams accompanied by a reinforcing explanation given by a pharmacist. Topics discussed included clotting, warfarin therapy, diet and drug interactions. An audit, consisting of a pretest and posttest, was developed to measure patient knowledge as a measurement of the program's effectiveness. Forty ambulatory patients participated in the study over a three-month period. Before instruction, only five patients were adequately knowledgeable about all of the information components. After instruction, this number increased to 20 patients, and all 40 patients had a better knowledge of each topic. The audit revealed that the program's standards were not completely appropriate and that other methods of program delivery must be evaluated and implemented.
对药剂师实施的口服抗凝剂教学计划的质量保证标准进行了研究。该教学计划包括展示描述性图表,并由药剂师进行强化解释。讨论的主题包括凝血、华法林治疗、饮食和药物相互作用。开发了一项由预测试和后测试组成的审核,以测量患者知识,作为该计划有效性的衡量标准。在三个月的时间里,40名门诊患者参与了该研究。在教学之前,只有5名患者对所有信息成分有足够的了解。教学之后,这一数字增加到了20名患者,并且所有40名患者对每个主题都有了更好的了解。审核显示,该计划的标准并不完全合适,必须评估和实施其他的教学方法。
