Abstract

Objective To investigate the current major status of curriculum about pharmacoepidemiology for clinical pharmacy and the need of clinical pharmacist for knowledge of pharmacoepidemiology, and to provide some reference for adding or reform the curriculum setting.Methods Reading literatures and browsing related websites were used to collect data, and network technology was used to survey in the members from Clinical Pharmacist Branch of Jiangsu Pharmacists Association.Results A total of 35 colleges and universities provided undergraduate programs of clinical pharmacy in 2016, and only 7 universities offered the course of pharmacoepidemiology. 178 clinical pharmacists finished the survey. 61.2% (109/178) and 9.6% (17/178) clinical pharmacists understood and were familiar with pharmacoepidemiology, and 53.9% (96/178) and 42.1% (75/178) considered it very necessary and necessary to offer pharmacoepidemiology course, respectively. 64.6% (115/178) clinical pharmacists thought that teaching objects were undergraduates and postgraduates of clinical pharmacy. 88.2% (157/178) and 89.3% (159/178) thought that teaching contents were pharmacoepidemiology methods and statistical analysis, respectively.Conclusions There is a gap between curriculum setting of pharmacoepidemiology and the need for pharmacopathological knowledge of clinical pharmacists. It is advisable to incorporate pharmacoepidemiology into the teaching system of clinical pharmacy undergraduate.
