In the computerized prescription order entry system, it has been pointed out that a physician's input mischoice for medicine is one of the causes of medication errors. We therefore investigated the input mischoices by physicians at the time of writing prescriptions. Subsequently, the number of input characters in a prescription order was changed to three characters from two characters. Furthermore, 105 items of high-alert medications, which are likely to result in injury if errors occur, were established. A warning screen display system that requests reconfirmation of the effect, name, usage, and dosage of those medicines was also built. It was found that 70% of input mistakes were caused by choosing the medicine displayed immediately above or below the desired drug. By changing the number of input characters of a prescription order to three characters from two characters, the rate of specification of a trademark improved sharply from 36% to 85%. Consequently, the rate of choice of a drug with another trademark decreased significantly from 0.028% to 0.0047%. In 5% of cases when the warning screen was displayed for a high-alert medicine, the prescription was stopped, and 25% were changed to other medicines. The above results show that the system that requires the input of three or more characters for the physician order entry and displays a warning screen for high-alert medicines is useful in preventing mischoices at the time of prescription input.<br>

We studied the effect of advising outpatients on the rational use of ophthalmic solutions and compliance by a questionnaire (n=158), in order to establish the optimal consultation method. A total of 41.8% of the patients answered the questionnaire. In compairing the actual use of ophthalmic solutions before and after consultation, the rates of rational use increased for all items except for “applications per day”, which decreased slightly from 93.4% before the consultation to 90.2% after that. In particular, “eyelid closure” and “nasolacrimal occlusion” after instillation, and “the 5 min interval of instillation in the case of plural medication”, considerably increased from 34.8% before the consultation to 60.6% after that, from 9.5% to 50.8% and from 45.9% to 73.8%, respectively. The compliance remarkably improved in glaucoma patients after consultation regarding “the 5min interval of instillation” .Based on these results, our consultation method for the rational use on ophthalmic solutions was thus evaluated. However, since some patients who still did not appreciate the need for the rational use of such medication still presented, further improvements in the consultation method requires for the rational use.

We conducted a survey to evaluate a system adopted by the Pharmacy Department of Tokyo University Hospital to address the problem of drug compliance under this system, patients are provided with a "Drug History Handbook", or drug notebook. This survey attempted to determine the extent to which a "Drug History Handbook" helped patients understand the drug they were taking, and the extent to which it was utilized during visits to other institutions. Based on the results of the survey we evaluated the efficacy of "Drug History Handbook" as a means to enable patients themselves to perform comprehensive drug information management. Out of 288 patients respondmg to the survey 149 (52%) had a "Drug History Hand-book"149out of 286 respondents or 40% had been diagnosed at other institutions. The respondents who said they had shown their "Drug History Handbook" to phamacists or physicians at other pharmacies, hospitals, or medical institutions were numbered 7 1 out of 149 (48%), including duplicate responses. At community pharmacies conducted at the same time, responses were obtained from 48 pharmacies. Of the 48 responding pharmacies, 21 (44%) said that patients had presented either "Drug History Handbook"or "prescription cards" From these results, it is clear that the patients thus realized the importance of keeping a complete record of the drugs they had taken, and that presenting information about drug history can be a very valuable aid in both prescribing and preparing appropriate medications. From thus survey, it was found that the use of a "Drug History Handbook" can help prevent the dispersal of information about purchase of over the counter drugs as well as prescription drugs. As a means of patient education, it can also be extremely effective for avoiding the duplicated administration of medications and drug-drug interactions.
