摘要
建立一个成功的肿瘤药学系统包括能力培训、具有成本效益的采购、化疗的适当储存、准备和管理以及适当的废物处理。巴基斯坦等中低收入国家在肿瘤药学领域面临着一些挑战,如缺乏培训计划、资源和财政支持,以及在安全处理细胞毒性药物方面的不一致。印度河医院与健康网络(Indus Hospital and Health Network,IHHN)是巴基斯坦肿瘤药学实践的先驱之一,它拥有一个完善的肿瘤药学团队,并按照美国药典 797 和 800 安全指南进行化疗准备。赛诺菲 Espoir 基金会向 IHHN 儿童血液学和肿瘤学部门提供了 "我的孩子很重要 "赠款,用于通过教学、培训和能力建设全面改善儿童癌症护理。与全国五个公共部门的儿童肿瘤科建立了合作伙伴关系。为改善肿瘤药学实践采取了多项举措,包括教学和培训课程、亲自评估访问以及指导和联络工作。尽管普遍存在挑战,但每个中心都取得了可喜的进步。不过,巴基斯坦需要制定一项儿童癌症国家计划,并建立地区组织,对肿瘤药剂师进行培训和监督。医院内药房业务的集中化对于保持化疗药物的供应、储存、制备和管理标准至关重要。
Enhancement of paediatric oncology pharmacy practices in a low-middle-income country through teaching and training using the My Child Matters Grant.
The development of a successful oncology pharmacy system includes competency training, cost-efficient procurement, proper storage, preparation and administration of chemotherapy, and appropriate waste disposal. Low-middle-income countries such as Pakistan face several challenges within the realm of oncology pharmacy such as the unavailability of training programmes, resources and financial support, and inconsistencies in the safe handling of cytotoxic drugs. The Indus Hospital and Health Network (IHHN) is among the pioneers of oncology pharmacy practices in Pakistan, with a well-established Oncology Pharmacy Team and chemotherapy preparation in accordance with the United States Pharmacopeia 797 and 800 safety guidelines. The My Child Matters Grant was awarded by the Sanofi Espoir Foundation to the Department of Paediatric Hematology and Oncology at IHHN for holistic improvement in childhood cancer care through teaching, training and capacity building. Partnerships were formed with five public-sector paediatric oncology units nationwide. Initiatives were taken to improve oncology pharmacy practices including teaching and training courses, in-person assessment visits, and mentorship and liaison efforts. Despite prevailing challenges, promising improvements were noted at each centre. However, Pakistan needs to establish a national plan for childhood cancer with the creation of regional organisations for the training and monitoring of oncology pharmacists. Centralisation of pharmacy operations within hospitals is essential to maintain the availability, storage, preparation and administration standards of chemotherapy.
