Abstract

Objective. To study the parameters of ABC/VEN analysis, to identify the most expensive drugs and determine ways of cost rationalization.
Materials and methods. ABC/VEN analysis was carried out on the basis of an intensive care and resuscitation unit of a maternity hospital. The material for the study was the list of drug dispensation by the departments of the hospital over the first quarter of 2022.
Results. The total costs in the intensive care and resuscitation unit were 104 596 52 rubles. For class A drugs, the costs amounted to 85 357 99 rubles, class B – 15 529 88 rubles, and class C – 3 708 65 rubles.
Conclusion. The use of ABC- and VEN- analyses has made it possible to reveal that funds for drug provision in the unit as a whole are spent quite expediently.
