Medication-related visits to the emergency department are an important but poorly understood phenomenon. We sought evaluate frequency, severity and preventability of drug-related department.
Patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) have significantly lower health-related quality of life (HRQoL) compared to the general population and patients other heart diseases. The research emphasis on influence AF symptoms HRQoL overshadows role individual characteristics. To address this gap, study's purpose was test an incremental predictive model for AF-related following adapted conceptual that incorporates both
Pharmacists' access to user-friendly electronic drug information databases that can quickly provide accurate, up-to-date has become increasingly important. Unfortunately, decisions about purchasing subscriptions such services are not always made objectively. Previously published studies have compared databases, but there no recent analyses from the perspective of Canadian hospital pharmacists.To determine overall preferences among most commonly used online based on an appraisal quality,...
Patients are harmed and resources wasted because of underuse, overuse, misuse medications treatments. To improve health services, governments other key organizations use quality indicators. These indicators through 2 main mechanisms. First, the process developing allows standards, targets, priorities to be set. Second, used retrospectively measure report various aspects care, providing a framework that increases accountability, benchmarking, identifies areas for improvement. Despite...
Purpose. A scalable, multiuser, personal digital assistant (PDA)-based documentation tool for pharmacist collection of data on drug-related problems (DRPs) is described. Summary. PDA-based documenting DRPs and interventions was developed with database software. Data fields were based the pharmaceutical care model. PDA synchronization stations configured to transmit encrypted from three hospital sites a central server. Pharmacists in multisite health organization trained use tool. analyzed...
