Purposes:
A new methodology to evaluate the medication-use system based on a risk cartography tool, has been developed. This work has been promoted by the Observatoire du médicament et des dispositifs médicaux stériles et de l'innovation thérapeutique (OMEDIT) from Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur (PACA)-Corse regions.
Methods:
This new methodology has been developed with Excel (Microsoft(®)) and has led to the mediEVAL tool. It consists in two categories of Excel files: evaluating Excel files (1 for each job of the medication-use system) and synthesis Excel files which allow to compile a group of evaluating files for a defined area (department, hospital…).
Results And Conclusion:
mediEVAL is a new tool to evaluate quality and risk management of the entire medication-use system which has to be used by private or public hospitals of PACA and Corsica areas in their appropriate medication-use contract. Then, the OMEDIT can get data to provide an inventory of fixtures of the PACA-Corse area medication-use system situation.

Pharmacovigilance
This process, termed pharmacovigilance, aims to detect, evaluate, and minimize harmful effects related to medication use. The data collection for pharmacovigilance depends on spontaneous reporting systems, where healthcare professionals or patients voluntarily report suspected ADRs.
