Aspects of law enforcement practice of pharmacy organizations of maternity hospitals

Abstract

The effective measure for addressing the state demographic policy and public health tasks in preserving the health of mothers and newborns could be the enhancement of medical care delivery and the advancement of pharmaceutical activities in maternity hospitals. Throughout our study, we conducted a review of the available current and historical regulatory acts and documents regarding the organization of pharmaceutical activities in Russian maternity hospitals during the period 2013-2023. The subject of our investigation focused on therapeutic and preventive medical facilities by type of medical activity, including maternity hospitals. During the research, we presented and analyzed data on the medical activities of maternity hospitals, which inevitably determine the optimal range of finished and manufactured medicinal products under specific conditions, taking into account the age and health status of patients (mothers and children), which, in our view, should lead to the continuous improvement of pharmaceutical activities. We have concluded that solely based on calculated data and the current approach applied to enhancing efficient and adequate pharmaceutical activities, the present measures are insufficient. We propose for our readers to consider the presented topic and the findings of our research from different perspectives and encourage your participation in the discussion.
