Abstract

We sent a questionnaire and a booklet designed to be handed to patients by pharmacists after oral explanation on morphine to 577 pharmacy departments of hospitals with over 100 beds in Japan. The purpose was to explore opinion about the content and utilization of the booklet. We analyzed the answers of questionnaires completed by 365 institutions by March, 1994. The recovery rate was 63.3%.<br>The answers were as follows; (1) 88.8% supported the usefulness of this booklet for patients. (2) 54.7% answered that institutions should pay money for the booklet and distribute to patients for free. In contrast, only 8.2% answered that patients themselves should pay money for it. (3) 62.7% answered that pharrnacists were the most appropriate medical staffs to hand out the booklet, and 37.5% answered that physicians were the best. (4) 66.6% answered that both patients and family were suitable subjects to receive the booklet. In contrast, 10.9% answered that only the family were appropriate. (5) 55.0% answered that the best time to deliver the booklet was when morphine was prescribed for the first time. On the other hand, 36.7% answered that the best time was when physicians judged it to be so.<br>Thus, the results of the investigation suggest that the usefulness of the booklet is supported by 88.8% of institutions. However, there are various opinions among the institutions about the booklet's utilization, such as recipients or the time of supply.
