Abstract

OBJECTIVES

In France, dispensation is defined by the validation of a prescription associated with a pharmaceutical analysis, preparation of medication and provision of information necessary for proper use. There are very few data available in the literature that describe prescription analysis modality in radiopharmacy. The aim was to secure a place for paediatric prescription analysis in radiopharmacy by designing a flow chart validated by experts.

METHODS

Experts from different disciplines and health setups (ie, public, private) were selected to represent the various paediatric patient care processes. A review of the literature on pharmaceutical analysis and paediatric prescription in radiopharmacy was conducted. A Delphi approach comprising two rounds (Google Form survey) was used to validate the flow chart. Answers were graded according to a nine-point Likert scale for agreement. Open-ended questions allowed experts to comment on the propositions. A consensus between experts was reached if more than 70% of the experts agreed on an item and fewer than 30% disagreed.

RESULTS

Sixty-five experts were solicited: two oncopaediatricians, three nuclear medicine physicians, 46 radiopharmacists, three residents in radiopharmacy, one hospital pharmacist, five medical physicists, one pharmacy technician, two X-ray technicians and two patients who are pharmacists. The first round survey included a draft of the flow chart: 31 experts answered (48%). All professional disciplines were represented except pharmacy technician. The second round survey was sent with a new flow chart that had been improved by the experts' comments. After 3 weeks, 18 answers were obtained (28%). After the first round, consensus was obtained for each item. Experts gave a total of 97 comments. The second flow chart had three steps: regulatory aspects, patient data, and radiopharmaceutical data, and it was accompanied by descriptive text explaining the field of application.

CONCLUSION

The resulting flow chart will secure the pharmaceutical analysis step for this special patient population.

Abstract

BACKGROUND

The "Law on Doctors of the People's Republic of China," which was officially implemented on March 1, 2022, emphasizes the requirements for rational drug use and the necessity for appropriate management of off-label drug use. The safety and ethical considerations related to off-label drug use are different in children than in adults. There is so far no management guideline for pediatric off-label use of drugs in China, and the applicability of foreign guidelines is limited. Establishing a localized evidence-based management guideline for pediatric off-label use of drugs to support the national legislation and clinical practice is of critical importance.

METHODS

We established a guideline working group, including experts from a broad range of disciplines and developed recommendations following the guidance of the World Health Organization Handbook and the Chinese Medical Association. The following themes were identified by questionnaires and expert interviews to be of great concern in the management of off-label drug use in children: general principles and characteristics of management of pediatric off-label drug use; establishment of expert committees; evidence evaluation; risk-benefit assessment; informed consent; monitoring and assessment of the risk; and monitoring and patient education. Two rounds of Delphi surveys were organized to determine the final recommendations of this guideline. We graded the recommendations based on the body of evidence, referring to the evaluation tool of the Evidence-based management (EBMgt) and the Oxford Center for Evidence-Based Medicine: Level of Evidence (March 2009).

RESULTS

We developed the first guideline for the management of pediatric off-label use of drugs in China.

CONCLUSIONS

The guideline is to offer guidance for pediatricians, pharmacists, medical managers, policymakers, and primary care physicians on how to manage off-label drug use in pediatrics and to provide recommendations for Chinese healthcare policy in the future.
