OBJECTIVE

2

To know about the working mode and human resource status of pharmacy intravenous admixture services （PIVAS） in national medical institutions.

METHODS

2

Through questionnaire survey， the national PIVAS was invited to fill out questionnaire and statistical analysis was performed on the effective sample data related to PIVAS working mode and human resources in the questionnaire.

RESULTS

2

In this study， 761 PIVAS from 722 medical institutions of 29 provinces were involved in the questionnaire survey， with 471 valid questionnaires for working mode and 441 valid questionnaires for human resources survey. In terms of working mode， among 471 PIVAS， 292 PIVAS （62.0%） were in pharmacist-alone mode， and 176 PIVAS （37.4%） were in pharmacist-nurse cooperative mode； there was no significant difference in the types of medical orders received by PIVAS between these two working modes except for the other medical orders （

＞0.05）. In terms of human resource setting， among 441 PIVAS， the average number of total staff of single PIVAS was 24（16，33）， including 11（6，19） pharmacists， 7（2，13） nursing staff， and 3（1，5） workers； there was a statistically significant difference in the number of personnel among three groups （

CONCLUSIONS

2

Medical institutions’ PIVAS in China had not fully implemented the pharmacist-alone work model， and some medical institutions had chosen a pharmacist-nurse cooperative mode. It is suggested that relevant departments formulate corresponding qualification requirements and training standards for nursing personnel as soon as possible based on sufficient research on PIVAS’s demand for nursing professionals.
