The phrase "atc number" is correct and usable in written English, particularly in medical and pharmaceutical contexts.
You can use it when referring to the Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical classification system, which is used to categorize drugs and medications.
Example: "Please provide the ATC number for the medication you are prescribing."
Alternatives: "ATC code" or "Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical code".
Five drug classes (and ATC numbers) were recorded, including agents acting on the rennin-angiotensin system (C09), called Group A hereafter; beta blocking agents (C07), called Group B hereafter; calcium channel blockers (C08), called Group C hereafter; diuretics (C03), called Group D hereafter; and antihypertensives (C02), called Group O hereafter.
The drugs involved in a QAP are registered according to their generic name, trade name and ATC-number according to the Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical (ATC) classification developed by the World Health Organization [ 11].
The following drug-classes (and ATC-numbers) were included: alpha blocking agents (C02C A), thiazides (C03A, C03B og C03E), beta blocking agents (C07), calcium channel blockers (C08), ACE-inhibitors (C09A), ACE-inhibitors combined with a diuretic (C09B), angiotensin II antagonists (C09C), and angiotensin II antagonists combined with a diuretic (C09D).
The factors associated with errors were administration route, drug ATC and number of patients under the nurse's care.
In ATC, the number of chromosomal arms affected in imbalances in five or more cases was lower than in the PDTC group.
Univariable logistic regression analysis indicated that the occurrence of errors was significantly associated with administration route, drug ATC and number of patients under the nurse's care (Table 3).
Data obtained included: the PRN number, ATC code, number of packages, and date of dispensing.
In multivariate analysis, the occurrence of errors was associated with drug administration route, drug classification (ATC) and the number of patient under the nurse's care.
> Prescribing according to ATC The mean number of drugs within the DU90% segment for the seven groups of drugs ranged from of 3.1 for the HMG CoA reductase inhibitors to 9.6 for the antibacterials for systemic use.
Preprocessing calculates refill times between each person's purchases of one ATC code, the number of hospital days between purchases, temporal averages of daily doses as DDD per day, referred as DDDAVG, and variation of the daily dose (i.e., the coefficient of variation for DDDAVG, referred as DDDAVGcv).
Viabilities were >100% indicating that residual ATC increased the numbers of live cells.
