RESUMO
An exploratory study was conducted to present the approach of Brazilian hospital pharmacists to registering, documenting, archiving and disseminating clinical practice. The data were collected using an electronic questionnaire (n=348). In fact, 97.41% of pharmacists record their clinical practice, out of which 64.01% (n=217) do in electronic form, mainly in private hospitals (p<0.000), in the central, southern and southeastern regions (p=0.040), and by professionals with 1-5 years of experience (p=0.001). The main software used is non-specific to clinical practice: an electronic spreadsheet (47.93%; n=104) and text editor (13.37%; n=29). The archiving of records is performed by 87.61% (n=297) of professionals, where 80.13% (n=238) do so in physical form; however, 77.31% (n=184) of these files are kept for less than the standard recommended time. Documentation in medical records is carried out by 55.17% (n=192) of pharmacists, increasing among those with 1-5 years of clinical practice (p=0.001), and dissemination is performed by 74.71% (n=260) of hospital pharmacists, with a lower frequency in public hospitals (p=0.012) and among professionals with fewer hours dedicated exclusively to clinical pharmacy (p=0.012). These results can undergird the revision of competency-based training programs of Brazilian clinical pharmacists to remain pharmacists as a valuable health team member

Se realizó un estudio de tipo descriptivo transversal cuyo objetivo fue evaluar el nivel de información sobre Farmacovigilancia de los alumnos cursantes de 4º y 5º año de las carreras de Medicina y Farmacia de la Universidad Central de Venezuela durante el año 2011. Se utilizó como instrumento una encuesta dividida en 3 secciones: la primera de 3 preguntas de opinión, la segunda de 8 preguntas de conocimiento general y la tercera de 2 preguntas de interés particular. La encuesta previamente validada, se aplicó a 73 estudiantes de la Facultad de Farmacia de la UCV, comprendidos entre 38 estudiantes de 4to año y 35 de 5to año, y a 212 estudiantes de la Facultad de Medicina de la UCV, comprendidos entre 101 estudiantes de 4to año y 111 de 5to año. El análisis fue descriptivo. Los resultados obtenidos mostraron que el mayor porcentaje que obtuvo un nivel de información alto (16 - 20 puntos) estuvo representado por los estudiantes de 4to año de la Facultad de Medicina con un 43,56%, el mayor porcentaje que obtuvo un nivel de información medio (11-15 puntos) estuvo representado por los estudiantes de 4º año de Farmacia con un 63,15% y el mayor porcentaje que obtuvo un nivel de información bajo (6-10 puntos) estuvo representado por los estudiantes de 5º año de Medicina con un 36,04%. Dado los resultados obtenidos se recomendó la elaboración de una propuesta de Temario de Farmacovigilancia, para incluirla como asignatura dentro de los programas de estudio del último año de las carreras de Medicina y Farmacia, con el fin de suplir los conocimientos necesarios para la práctica profesional futura.
A cross-sectional descriptive research was performed to assess the degree of information on Pharmacovigilance in the 4th and 5th year students from Pharmacy and Medicine Schools of Central University of Venezuela during the June-July 2011 period.The utilized instrument was a questionnaire divided in three sections: the first section containing 3 questions of opinion, the second one had eight general knowledge questions and the third section with two questions of particular interest. We applied a previously validated Test to 73 students from Pharmacy School of UCV, (including 38 and 35 students studying at 4th and 5th year respectively), and to 212 students from the Medicine School of UCV, (101 studiyng at the 4th year and 111 studying at the 5th year). The analysis was descriptive. The results showed that the 4th year students of the Medicine School, adquired the highest percentage of information level (16 - 20 pts), equivalent to a 43.56%. The 4th year students of Pharmacy School, with a 63,15%, the highest in percentage, obtained an average information level (11 -15 pts) and the highest percentage who earned a low level of information (6 - 10 pts) was represented by students of 5th year with 36,04 % , which resulted in recommendations for the development of a proposed agenda for pharmacovigilance, to be included as a subject in the curriculum of the last year of racing surveyed, in order to supply the knowledge necessary for future professional practice.
