Pharmacist's knowledge, attitude, and practice toward proper inhaler technique.
Introduction: Recognizing and correcting inhaler technique faults are critical for pharmacists. This study assesses the inhaler usage practices, attitudes, and knowledge among pharmacists.
Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted among 200 pharmacists in 2 provinces (Karbala and Najaf) from October 1, 2022, to the end of December 2022.
Results: Two hundred Iraqi pharmacists, aged 28.1 ± 4.6 years, and randomly selected from Najaf and Karbala, participated in the study. The use of inhalers was well-known to about one-third of the participants. Most participants felt that using inhalers properly impacts how well a patient responds to treatment and that pharmacists must take courses to improve their credentials as educators. About a third of the volunteers checked how inhalers were used and explained the inhale-hold technique.
Conclusion: In conclusion, pharmacists in Iraq demonstrated a fair level of knowledge and practice regarding inhaler usage techniques, with a good attitude toward teaching patients how to use their inhalers. The training programs on how to use inhalers would be beneficial in improving their healthcare services.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Public Health Research (JPHR) is an online Open Access, peer-reviewed journal in the field of public health science. The aim of the journal is to stimulate debate and dissemination of knowledge in the public health field in order to improve efficacy, effectiveness and efficiency of public health interventions to improve health outcomes of populations. This aim can only be achieved by adopting a global and multidisciplinary approach. The Journal of Public Health Research publishes contributions from both the “traditional'' disciplines of public health, including hygiene, epidemiology, health education, environmental health, occupational health, health policy, hospital management, health economics, law and ethics as well as from the area of new health care fields including social science, communication science, eHealth and mHealth philosophy, health technology assessment, genetics research implications, population-mental health, gender and disparity issues, global and migration-related themes. In support of this approach, JPHR strongly encourages the use of real multidisciplinary approaches and analyses in the manuscripts submitted to the journal. In addition to Original research, Systematic Review, Meta-analysis, Meta-synthesis and Perspectives and Debate articles, JPHR publishes newsworthy Brief Reports, Letters and Study Protocols related to public health and public health management activities.
