Abstract

Background: Application of the ABC-VEN method in evaluating drug planning can increase efficiency and ensure optimal medicine availability and stable access to medications. Objective: To analyze ABC-VEN combinations to examine the profile of medicine use in the internal medicine department. Methods: This was an observational study with retrospective prescription data from outpatients in the Internal Medicine Department from January to March 2020. Collected data included the type, number of medicines, and medicine prices. Patients undergoing chemotherapy and retroviral therapy for HIV were excluded from the study. Subsequently, an ABC-VEN analysis was performed. Results: Of 4,242 prescription samples, 188 types of medicines were used. Based on the drug use evaluation with ABC analysis, category A contained 23 items (12.17%), category B contained 35 items (18.52%), and category C contained 130 items (69.31%). The ABC analysis for investment value found that category A contained eight items (4.23%), category B contained 22 items (11.64%), and 158 items (84.13%). Based on the VEN analysis, Group V had six medicine items, Group E had 152 medicine items, and Group N had 30 medicine items. The ABC-VEN investigation showed that there were eight, 151, and 29 items of medicines in Categories I, I, and III, respectively. Conclusion: Although there are medicines that are highly used, their investment value is quite low. The use of the ABC-VEN method to evaluate medicine use is crucial for organizing and controlling the medicine supply.

Abstract

Background: Post-ACS patients often face an increased likelihood of mortality, rehospitalization, and diminished quality of life as a consequence of poor medication adherence. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the level of adherence to medication in post-ACS patients and its relationship with quality of life and rehospitalization rates. Methods: A cross-sectional, observational, single-center, prospective study conducted at Universitas Airlangga Teaching Hospital, Surabaya. Compliance with medication was evaluated using the Adherence Refill Medication Scale-7 (ARMS-7) questionnaire, while quality of life was measured using the Short Form-36 (SF-36) Quality of Life questionnaire. Rehospitalization rates were obtained through direct interviews and medical record observations within 45 days of hospital discharge. Results: In total, 39 patients participated in this study, with overall adherence rates of 35.89% for all prescribed medications, 53.85% for antiplatelets, 38.46% for statins, 55.56% for beta-blockers, and 58.06% for ACEIs/ARBs. Among the quality-of-life dimensions, social functioning had the highest score (93.01 ± 15.89), whereas physical role functioning had the lowest score (40.39 ± 35.18). Within 45 days of hospital discharge, 26% of the patients experienced rehospitalization. Statistical analysis indicated a positive correlation between adherence to all prescribed medications and physical role functioning in relation to QoL (p = 0.038). In addition, overall medication adherence was negatively correlated with the risk of rehospitalization (p = 0.019). Conclusion: Total medication adherence was associated with improved physical function and rehospitalization events. Providing education can lead to better therapeutic outcomes, improved quality of life, and reduced rehospitalization in patients.
