Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the appropriate use of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) for stress ulcer prophylaxis in critically ill patients at 108 Military Central Hospital. Subject and method: A cross-sectional, retrospective description study was conducted based on electronic medical records of patients prescribed PPIs at the Department of Respiratory Infectious Diseases and Resuscitation, the Cardiovascular Resuscitation Department and the Intensive Care Center from 01/01/2021 to 30/04/2021. Result and conclusion: The proportion of patients with rational initial prescription of PPIs for stress ulcer prophylaxis was 60.0%. The proportion of patients with rational prescription of PPIs when evaluating throughout the intensive care period was 84.7%. PPIs dosing regimen was appropriate in 95.1% of patients. Cooperation between clinical pharmacists and physicians needs to be enhanced in order to optimize the clinical practice of stress ulcer prophylaxis in critically ill patients.
