Spanish term

FARMACIA PRIVADA Y FARMACIA ASISTENCIAL

Spanish to English Medical Chemistry; Chem Sci/Eng CHEMISTRY AND PHARMACY
Estoy traduciendo un certificado de notas y es una asignatura de la carrera de Química y Farmacia. Les entrego las definiciones:

"Farmacia Privada" es todo lo realtivo a Farmacia de calle. Los deberes y tareas del farmacéutico en una farmacia. Legilacion laboral y de los medicamentos a la venta.

"Farmacia Asistencial" es lo relativo a la farmacia del hospital (la que no vemos); la administración de medicamentos a pacientes internos en hospital, la distribución a hospitales mas pequeños o a policlínicos. El suministro de todo tipo de drogas a los pabellones quirúrgicos del mismo hospital.

Creo que "Farmacia Asistencial" se podría traducir como "Hospital Pharmacy", pero no estoy segura si esto incluye ambos términos.

Gracias

Hospital pharmacy

Main article: Hospital pharmacy

Pharmacies within hospitals differ considerably from community pharmacies. Some pharmacists in hospital pharmacies may have more complex clinical medication management issues whereas pharmacists in community pharmacies often have more complex business and customer relations issues.

Because of the complexity of medications including specific indications, effectiveness of treatment regimens, safety of medications (i.e., drug interactions) and patient compliance issues (in the hospital and at home) many pharmacists practicing in hospitals gain more education and training after pharmacy school through a pharmacy practice residency and sometimes followed by another residency in a specific area. Those pharmacists are often referred to as clinical pharmacists and they often specialize in various disciplines of pharmacy. For example, there are pharmacists who specialize in hematology/oncology, HIV/AIDS, infectious disease, critical care, emergency medicine, toxicology, nuclear pharmacy, pain management, psychiatry, anti-coagulation clinics, herbal medicine, neurology/epilepsy management, pediatrics, neonatal pharmacists and more.

Hospital pharmacies can often be found within the premises of the hospital. Hospital pharmacies usually stock a larger range of medications, including more specialized medications, than would be feasible in the community setting. Most hospital medications are unit-dose, or a single dose of medicine. Hospital pharmacists and trained pharmacy technicians compound sterile products for patients including total parenteral nutrition (TPN), and other medications given intravenously. This is a complex process that requires adequate training of personnel, quality assurance of products, and adequate facilities. Several hospital pharmacies have decided to outsource high risk preparations and some other compounding functions to companies who specialize in compounding. The high cost of medications and drug-related technology, combined with the potential impact of medications and pharmacy services on patient-care outcomes and patient safety, make it imperative that hospital pharmacies perform at the highest level possible.
