Results of a study economic and patient satisfaction outcomes implementing "layered learning model" (LLM) in community hospital are presented. An LLM consisting clinical pharmacist, two postgraduate year 1 pharmacy residents, students participating rounds providing education was implemented at small hospital. The primary endpoint the difference mean total drug cost per discharge cases managed by physicians who rounded with representatives (the intervention group) no pharmacist present...
Tramadol is metabolized by cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2D6 to form an active metabolite that exhibits its analgesic effect. Medications inhibit this enzyme are used often in practice, yet the clinical impact of interaction on effects tramadol has be fully described. The objective was determine whether a clinically relevant decrease pain control observed patients taking scheduled concomitantly with strong CYP2D6 inhibitor.Retrospective cohort study.Large health care system.One hundred fifty-two...
Accreditation standards set forth by the American Society of Health‐System Pharmacists note that postgraduate year one programs should have a formal process in place to screen candidates based upon predetermined criteria ensure applicants appropriate qualifications complete residency training. This standard encourages consistent and an objective approach evaluate each applicant. As result, many rely heavily on accessible metrics, such as grade point average (GPA), quickly compare candidates....
To evaluate the net clinical benefit of tranexamic acid use in patients undergoing total knee or hip replacement.This is a retrospective study replacement. The primary outcome was use. Secondary outcomes included length stay, incidence venous thromboembolism, change hemoglobin, and number units blood transfused.Four hundred six were screened for inclusion 327 met criteria; 174 received versus 153 who usual care.

This institutional review board-approved retrospective cohort study evaluated the impact of intravenous versus subcutaneous phytonadione on length stay in hospitalized patients requiring urgent warfarin reversal. All were 18 years or older, therapy with an international normalized ratio (INR) between 3.1 and 10.0, had restarted at discharge. Patients who received intramuscular oral phytonadione, by more than 1 route, fresh frozen plasma, any other blood products containing clotting factors,...
Background: Loop diuretic therapy effectively treats edema related to heart failure, chronic kidney disease, and liver impairment; however, evidence supporting other indications is lacking. For such as hypertension or dependent treatment of adverse events associated with medications, the benefits likely do not outweigh risks, putting patients at an unacceptably high risk poor outcomes. Study Question: What proportion loop prescribing that occurs in absence a diagnosis impairment,...
