Preclinical Development: Overview01:28

Preclinical Development: Overview

Preclinical development consists of a series of tests that ensure the safety and efficacy of a new therapeutic compound before it is tested in humans. There are four main phases to this process. First, safety pharmacology tests are conducted to ensure the drug does not produce any acutely harmful effects. These tests examine parameters such as bronchoconstriction, cardiac dysrhythmias, blood pressure changes, and ataxia. Next, preliminary toxicological testing is performed to determine the...

Pharmacokinetics in Pediatric Patients: Drug Excretion

In pediatric medicine, understanding the renal function and drug elimination nuances is crucial for administering safe and effective treatments. Newborns, in particular, display markedly slower renal functions than adults, profoundly affecting how drugs are cleared from their bodies. This slower drug clearance requires clinicians to extend the dosing intervals for many medications to prevent drug accumulation and toxicity while ensuring therapeutic efficacy.One key area where these adjustments...

Biopharmaceutics and Pharmacokinetics: Overview

Understanding drugs, drug products, and their performance in pharmaceutical science is pivotal. Drugs, whether simple molecules or complex compounds, are designed to interact with the body's biological systems to diagnose, treat, or prevent diseases. Drug products include various delivery systems such as tablets, capsules, injections, and inhalers. The performance of these drug products is gauged by their ability to deliver the active ingredient to the desired site of action at the appropriate...
Pharmacokinetic–Pharmacodynamic Relationship: Problems01:24

Pharmacokinetic–Pharmacodynamic Relationship: Problems

The empirical approach to drug therapy optimization relies on correlating pharmacological response with administered dosage. Such an approach can be costly, time-consuming, and often yields poor correlation due to variables like formulation factors and drug elimination characteristics. A more precise approach correlates response with plasma drug concentration or the amount of drug in the body, rather than dosage. This is achieved through pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) modeling, which...
Drug Administration and Therapy Phases: Overview01:26

Drug Administration and Therapy Phases: Overview

Drugs, the chemical agents used in diagnosing, treating, or preventing diseases, undergo a four-phase process of development: pharmaceutic, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and therapeutic.
The pharmaceutical phase focuses on leveraging the physicochemical properties of the drug to design and manufacture an effective product. Variants include orally administered tablets or capsules, topical creams or ointments, and parenteral-delivery solutions or emulsions.
The pharmacokinetic phase...
Dosage Regimens: Designs and Approaches01:28

Dosage Regimens: Designs and Approaches

Designing a dosage regimen, which refers to the manner of drug administration, is a complex process involving the selection of drug dose, route, and frequency. This process is underpinned by pharmacokinetic parameters derived from tests and population averages. These parameters are then tailored to patient-specific variables such as diagnosis, demographics, and allergy status. Once therapy commences, therapeutic response monitoring is critical and achieved through clinical and physical...

Area of Science:

  • Pharmacy Education
  • Experiential Learning Assessment
  • Student Preparedness Evaluation

Background:

  • Assessing pharmacy student readiness for Advanced Pharmacy Practice Experiences (APPEs) is crucial for effective training.
  • Existing assessment methods may not fully capture the multifaceted skills required for APPEs.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and validate the Triple Jump Examination (TJE) as a comprehensive tool to evaluate pharmacy students' preparedness for APPEs.

Main Methods:

  • The Triple Jump Examination (TJE) integrated written closed-book, written open-book, and objective structured clinical examination (OSCE) components.
  • The TJE was administered over four academic semesters, with cumulative scores determining progression to APPEs.

Main Results:

  • A strong correlation (r = 0.60, p > 0.0001) was observed between cumulative TJE scores and first-year APPE preceptor grades, demonstrating predictive validity.
  • High reliability was confirmed through strong correlations across the four successive TJE administrations.
  • Both students and faculty reported positive acceptance and perceived usefulness of the TJE.

Conclusions:

  • The TJE is an effective instrument for assessing pharmacy students' readiness for APPEs.
  • The TJE program offers valuable guidance to students, aiding their preparation for the experiential components of pharmacy education.
