Abstract: Objective To explore the general rule of medication usage in retired military personnel in the sanatorium. Methods The SQL statement was used to extract the electronic prescription data of all outpatients of 2015-retired military personnel of a third-A-grade hospital in Shanghai for data cleaning and classification.SPSS 19.0 was used to describe the samples and Kruskal-Wallis nonparametric test.The multiple linear regression analysis of factors related to the amount of prescription was performed. Results In 2015,a total of 383 retired military personnel visited the outpatient clinic of this third-A-grade hospitals,with an average age of 83.99±4.22 years old,with an average of 34.48±22.69 clinic visit times per person,and with 835 type of drugs (including different specifications of the same variety).The expenditure on pharmaceutical consumption was 6.66 million yuan.The per capita consumption was 17394.29±14706.94 yuan; Among them,the consumption of chemical drugs and biological preparations was 47.7 million (accounting for 71.83%).The consumption of proprietary Chinese medicines was 1.876 million (accounting for 28.17%).There is a linear correlation between per capita drug consumption and the retired military personnel's persition leval (X2),branch (X3),and the number of visits (X4).The standardized regression equation is Y=0.458X4+0.422X2+0.252X3. Conclusion The outpatient drug consumption and disease spectrum of retired military personnel is basically consistent.The outpatient drug consumption of retired cadres is not limited to health funding guarantee standard,but,the difference of the retired military personnel's drug consumption between the directly affiliated branch and Joint Logistics Support Force is statistically significant.The average annual outpatient drug consumption of retired military personnel is related to many factors.The problem of long-term over-medication of retired military personnel needs attention.
