Unity diversity and the standardization of clinical pharmacy service

The original idea of ACCP came from Asian pharmacists who were looking for a practical conference at which they could exchange and share ideas on the concept of clinical pharmacy. In 1996, representatives from China, Korea, Japan, and USA met in Seoul, Korea to plan for the first conference. As a result, the first East Asia Conference on Developing Clinical Pharmacy Practice and Clinical Pharmacy Education (EACDCPPE) was held in America in 1997. Only 36 representatives attended and pioneers planned it as bi-annual meeting.
\nIn 1999, the second EACDCPPE was successively held in Shanghai. This conference enabled more representatives in Asian countries to realize the differences between Asian and Western countries in the development of clinical pharmacy. When the third conference was held in Japan in 2003, the title of the conference was changed to Asian Conference on Clinical Pharmacy (ACCP). This opened the conference to more Asian countries; also the subject of clinical pharmacy was more strengthened. With a series of
\nother Asian countries such as Philippines, Indonesia, Singapore, and so on attending ACCP, as well as
\nwith the rapid development of clinical pharmacy in Asia, every country was enthusiastic about attending
\nand holding this conference. At the 5th conference in Malaysia in 2005, the decision was made among
\nthe representatives of the member countries to hold the conference annually instead of biannually for
\nefficiency and convenience in regard to communicating and sharing about clinical pharmacy.
\nDuring the past 20 years, ACCP has been a major event in the clinical pharmacy scope in Asia and has
\nbeen conducted in various countries especially in Asia. Clinical pharmacists have attended this prestigious
\nmeeting to share their experience in the fields of practice, research, and education on clinical pharmacy.
\nClinical pharmacist experts from USA, Canada, Australia, and UK have continuously come to transfer
\ntheir knowledge and shared advance clinical pharmacy practice experiences. This conference supports
\nrapid knowledge and experience transfer and enhances the emergence of clinical pharmacy practice in
\nAsia.
\nIndonesia hosted the 8th ACCP in Surabaya in 2008, and again this year Indonesia has successfully
\nhosted the 17th ACCP in Yogyakarta from 28th to 30th July 2017. This year’s conference was also a
\ncelebration of 20 years of ACCP with the theme “ Unity in Diversity and the Standardisation of Clinical
\nPharmacy Services/’ At ACCP 2017, there were 6 preconfcrcncc workshops, poster sessions consisted of
\n199 posters, 21 oral presentation sessions consisted of a total of 142 oral presentations, and there were
\nsymposiums with 47 speakers, 2 plenary sessions with 4 speakers and 4 keynote speeches regarding various current issues in clinical pharmacy. About 1 ,133 participants attended the conference from 16 different countries.
\nThis ACCP 2017 proceeding provides an opportunity for readers to engage with selected papers presented at the 17th ACCP 2017. This book is also a valuable contribution to gaining a better understanding about the development of clinical pharmacy particularly in Asian countries and the future global
