Abstract:

Abstract To demonstrate a process of calculating the maximum potential morphine milligram equivalent daily dose (MEDD) based on the prescription Sig for use in quality improvement initiatives. To calculate an opioid prescription’s maximum potential Sig-MEDD, we developed SQL code to determine a prescription’s maximum units/day using discrete field data and text-parsing in the prescription instructions. We validated the derived units/day calculation using 3000 Sigs, then compared the Sig-MEDD calculation against the Epic-MEDD calculator. Of the 101 782 outpatient opioid prescriptions ordered ov

Abstract:

199 Background: While team-based safety checks ensure safe prescribing of parenteral chemotherapy, oral chemotherapy is usually prescribed by a single clinician. With the growing use of oral chemotherapy, processes are needed to protect these vulnerable patients from prescription errors. Methods: A team of nurses, clinicians, pharmacists and administrators developed a new process and checklist for nursing verification of oral chemotherapy prescriptions at Dana-Farber’s pediatric neuro-oncology program. Prescriptions are verified against the treatment plan by two pediatric oncology nurses. The

Abstract:

BackgroundWhilst the prescribing of both in-patient and discharge medicines is electronic, there was no automatic notification to clinical pharmacists when a discharge prescription was ready to be screened. The notification required a member of medical or nursing staff to bleep their pharmacist informing them of a prescription's availability. This manual process led to a delay in pharmacist screening which impacted on discharge. Prescriptions designated for pre-packed or patient's own medicine use were not seen at all by a clinical pharmacist. The initial intention was to develop a text messag

BackgroundInpatient parenteral nutrition (PN) is historically administered by nurses against a fluid prescription with flow rates for aqueous and lipid phases. The prescription used to order PN from the aseptic unit is held with clinical pharmacists and not kept on the ward.

On the other hand, such gauge dependence does not appear in the result of the pole mass renormalization prescription.

Abstract:

Purpose: The purpose of this research is to evaluate a collaborative workflow aimed at decreasing prescription abandonment. Setting: A federally qualified health center and a 340B contracted grocery store-based community pharmacy. Practice Workflow: An ambulatory care clinic with an established partnership with a community pharmacy chain identified a need to decrease prescription abandonment rates. A process was developed whereby an ambulatory care pharmacy technician received a report from the pharmacy of prescriptions filled for at least 7 days since the initial fill date and at

Abstract:

Background : Although challenging, writing prescriptions is an essential practical competency of medical graduates. This process is transformative as it reflects medical students’ ways of thinking and practising. A conceptual framework, similar to "way of thinking and practising", known as ‘threshold concepts’ can help students to establish meaningful connections between the transformative and conceptually difficult ideas underlying prescription writing. This enables them to think, practice and demonstrate the competence required for rational drug prescription conducive to effective pharmacoth

The European Association of Preventive Cardiology Exercise Prescription in Everyday Practice and Rehabilitative Training (EXPERT) tool has been developed for digital training and decision support in cardiovascular disease patients in clinical practice. Exercise prescription recommendation systems for sub-healthy people are essential to enhance this dominant group’s physical ability as well. This study aims to construct a guided exercise prescription system for sub-healthy groups using exercise community data to train an AI model.

AimThe current discharge process on the paediatric wards involves transcribing medications from one electronic system to another, this has led to errors and compromises patient safety. Discharges are also sometimes delayed due to patients waiting for their medications. The newly implemented discharge service involves pharmacists working closely with the medical team to identify patients for discharge as early as possible and to accurately transcribe medications onto the electronic patient record (EPR).MethodThe pharmacist would attend the consultant-led morning handover or would liaise with th

Abstract:

This Note argues that it is harmful and unnecessary to require women to obtain prescriptions for access to hormonal birth control. Requiring a prescription is necessarily a barrier to access which hurts women and hamstrings the ability to dictate their own reproductive plans. It is also an irrational regulation in light of the relative safety of hormonal birth control pills, particularly progestin-only formulations, compared to other drugs readily available on the shelves. Leading medical organizations, including the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecologists, advocate for over-the-count

Abstract:

Recently, an Institute of Medicine panel concluded that years of negligence, mismanagement, inadequate resources, infighting among staff members, and lack of a systemic drug approval and postmarketing surveillance process have diluted the effectiveness of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in protecting public health. The panel was commissioned by the FDA to assess the U.S. drug safety system, and they recommended 25 sweeping changes, most of which would require congressional authorization. The recommendations focus on the life cycle of a drug product, rather than just the approval process

Abstract:

Studies of scoring rules for sore throat have failed to show that they lower antibiotic prescription rates. The authors studied the effect of an explicit decision-support tool, incorporating a modified score, on antibiotic-prescription decisions. Four hundred and fifty family physicians received an information package, a score card, and a recording form to use during one sore-throat encounter. The physicians randomly received either a control form or an intervention form that required them to interact with the score during the clinical recording process. There was a trend towards a reduction i

Purpose The paper aims to address the issue of generalizability by examining process formality across the global regions of North America, Europe and Asia.

However, the therapeutic efficacy needs to be evaluated objectively, and the precise mechanism remains unclear. In the present study, a double-center, prospective cohort study was carried out to assess the clinical efficacy of the FZQX prescription in preventing the recurrence and metastasis of postoperative early-stage lung adenocarcinoma.

While this has improved the patient experience, it presents significant challenges to safety of prescription, administration and side effect monitoring. While there are guidelines for documentation, there is not a best practices system for managing OC. This project identified areas of latent errors and implemented a standardized process for OC management. Methods: After review of the literature, we developed a process map for OC prescriptions at our institution. We then compared processes at three o
