Abstract

Background: Master’s students are required to perform community service (CS), so a strategy is needed to merge CS into a course and make it a learning method that can be sustainably evaluated. Objective: This study aimed to analyse patients’ problems in using, storing, and disposing of drugs through home medication review (HMR) by master’s students of pharmacy. Subjective self-assessment assesses students’ performance in fulfilling the relevant competencies. Method: This cross-sectional study, conducted for four months, involved 225 patients living near the students’ residences. Semi-structured interviews collected data on subject characteristics and how the patients/family members managed drugs at home. Result: Nine master’s students practised HMR to achieve the learning outcomes of the pharmaceutical care course. The most commonly identified drug-related problems (DRPs) were inappropriate timing or dosing interval (41.2%) and medication nonadherence (25%). Some patients (31.6%) stored drugs without adherence to the provisions, and 70.2% disposed of drugs directly in the trash can. Meanwhile, 88.9% of students strongly agreed that HMR could improve their ability to gather patient data and information. Conclusion: HMR is an excellent patient-oriented practice for master’s students to strengthen and refine their awareness of community needs regarding drug use and management by patients at home.

药学硕士研究生在家庭用药检查实践中遇到的药物相关问题分析

背景：硕士生需要进行社区服务（CS），因此需要一种策略将社区服务纳入课程，并使其成为一种可持续评估的学习方法：本研究旨在通过药剂学硕士研究生的家庭用药回顾（HMR），分析患者在使用、储存和处置药物时遇到的问题。主观自我评价可评估学生在履行相关能力方面的表现：这项横断面研究为期四个月，涉及居住在学生住所附近的 225 名患者。半结构式访谈收集了关于研究对象特征以及患者/家属如何在家中管理药物的数据：结果：九名硕士生通过实践 HMR 达到了药物护理课程的学习目标。最常见的药物相关问题（DRP）是用药时间或用药间隔不当（41.2%）和不按时服药（25%）。部分患者（31.6%）不按规定储存药物，70.2%的患者直接将药物丢入垃圾桶。同时，88.9% 的学生非常同意 HMR 可以提高他们收集患者数据和信息的能力：结论：HMR 是一种以患者为导向的优秀实践活动，有助于硕士生加强和完善对社区在家庭患者用药和管理方面需求的认识。
