摘要

背景:抗菌药物管理(AMS)计划已在世界各地实施,目的是优化抗菌药物的使用管理,以减少抗菌药物耐药性(AMR)。本研究评估了赞比亚卢萨卡地区社区药剂师对 AMS 战略的了解和实践:这项横断面研究于 2022 年 8 月至 2022 年 9 月在卢萨卡地区的 194 名社区药剂师中进行,采用了结构化问卷。数据分析采用社会科学统计软件包(SPSS)22.0 版:在 194 名参与者中,86% 的社区药剂师对 AMS 有较好的了解。本研究发现,83.5% 的社区药剂师了解社区药房实践中使用的 AMS 策略。此外,83.5% 的社区药剂师熟悉 AMS 的目标,89.2% 的社区药剂师认为 AMS 对他们的药学实践是必要的。此外,66.7% 的受试者对 AMS 策略表现出良好的实践能力。最后,61.3% 的药剂师经常避免使用不必要的广谱抗菌药物:根据这项研究的结果,大多数社区药剂师对抗击 AMR 的 AMS 策略有较好的了解,但也有一些药剂师在实践中表现不佳。因此,社区药剂师有必要通过AMS计划获得足够的持续专业发展计划和教育活动,以应对AMR。

Community pharmacists' knowledge and practices towards antimicrobial stewardship: findings and implications.

Background: Antimicrobial stewardship (AMS) programmes have been implemented around the world to optimally manage antimicrobial use to attenuate antimicrobial resistance (AMR). This study assessed the knowledge and practices of community pharmacists towards AMS strategies in the Lusaka District, Zambia.

Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted among 194 community pharmacists in the Lusaka district using a structured questionnaire from August 2022 to September 2022. Data analysis was done using Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) version 22.0.

Results: Of the 194 participants, 86% of the community pharmacists had good knowledge of AMS. The present study found that 83.5% were aware of AMS strategies used in community pharmacy practice. Further, 83.5% of the CPs were familiar with the goals of AMS and 89.2% believed that AMS was necessary for their pharmacy practice. Furthermore, 66.7% of the participants exhibited good practice towards the AMS strategies. Finally, 61.3% frequently avoided the use of broad-spectrum antimicrobials that were not necessary.

Conclusions: According to the findings of this study, the majority of community pharmacists had good knowledge of the AMS strategies that were employed to combat AMR; nonetheless, some of them had poor practices. Therefore, there is a need for community pharmacists to have access to sufficient ongoing professional development programmes and educational activities through AMS programmes to address AMR.
