Objective: to investigate the effect of clinical pharmacists in ICU. Methods: 108 ICU patients from January 2018 to March 2020 were divided into the control group and the observation group, with 54 cases in each group. The control group used the previous medication route, while the observation group introduced clinical pharmacists to guide clinical medication. The infection rate and adverse reaction rate of the two groups were compared. Results: the infection rate of the observation group was 3.70%, and that of the control group was 14.81%, which was significantly lower than that of the control group (P<0.05). The adverse reaction rate of the observation group was 5.56%, and that of the control group was 18.52%, which was significantly lower than that of the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion: the introduction of clinical pharmacists to guide clinical medication in ICU can effectively control the infection, and reduce various adverse reactions during drug use, so as to realize the scientific and standardized use of drugs, and improve the efficiency and safety of drug use.
