对29名参加深度教育项目的农村癌症患者进行镇痛药和辅助药物的费用评估。在所有时间段内，所有药物的平均每日费用为5.16美元。所有药物的平均每日费用、最高和中位数费用分别为5.36美元、74.38美元和3.58美元。平均每日费用没有随时间变化。平均疼痛强度不随时间变化，与处方模式或每日费用无关。虽然专业教育被证明可以改变处方实践，但还需要进一步研究，使用可靠的结局指标（而不是自我报告的疼痛强度）来评估给药模式和有效性模式。[文章副本可从霍沃斯文件传递服务收费：1-800-342-9678。电子邮件地址：getinfo@haworthpressinc.com]
Cost of analgesic and adjuvant medications used by rural patients with cancer cared for by 29 nurses participating in an in-depth education program were evaluated before and after the program. Across all time periods, the median daily cost was $5.16 across all medications. Average daily cost and maximum and median cost of all medications were $5.36, $74.38 and $3.58, respectively. Average daily cost did not change over time. Average pain intensity did not change over time and was not related to prescribing patterns or daily costs. While professional education was demonstrated to produce change in prescribing practices, further research is needed to evaluate patterns of medication administration and effectiveness patterns using reliable outcome measures other than self report of pain intensity.[Article copies available for a fee from The Haworth Document Delivery Service: 1-800-342-9678.
