[The demand for the main cardiovascular preparations in the city of Frunze]
Insights
This study analyzed cardiovascular drug use in 361 patients, identifying needs and recommending improvements for better therapy outcomes. It focused on drug intensity, regularity, and effectiveness for heart conditions.
Area of Science:
- Cardiology
- Pharmacology
- Public Health
Context:
- Study conducted in a hospital and Kirghiz Scientific Research Institute of Cardiology.
- Utilized a scheme developed by the USSR Cardiology Research Center.
- Focused on patients with ischemic heart disease, essential hypertension, and combined conditions.
Purpose:
- To analyze the structure of consumption and need for cardiovascular drugs.
- To evaluate drug use in relation to optimal therapeutic results.
- To assess drug provision for cardiological patients and recommend improvements.
Summary:
- Investigated 1125 drug treatment courses in 361 patients with major cardiac pathologies.
- Prescriptions were analyzed for intensity, regularity, and optimal effect.
- Assessed drug availability and satisfaction of need for specific cardiovascular agents.
Impact:
- Identified gaps in drug provision, particularly for prolonged nitrates, calcium antagonists, and cardiac glycosides.
- Provided recommendations for improving cardiovascular drug supply and patient care.
- Contributed to understanding drug utilization patterns in cardiovascular therapy.
Abstract:
The structure of consumption and need in cardiovascular drugs were studied in a hospital and in the Kirghiz Scientific Research Institute of Cardiology according to a scheme developed in the USSR Cardiology Research Center. Use of cardiovascular drugs was studied with respect to optimal results of therapy in 361 patients with main cardiac pathology (ischemic heart disease, essential hypertension and their combination) who had received 1125 courses of drug treatment. The prescriptions were analysed according to their intensity, regularity and optimal effect. The authors assessed provision of cardiological patients of Frunze with drugs and gave recommendations on its improvement, in particular, satisfaction of need in some active drugs (prolonged nitrates, calcium antagonists, cardiac glycosides).
