IV Infusion to Oral Dosing: Conversion Methods

120
The development of extended-release formulations has facilitated the transition from intravenous to oral medication, offering a more convenient and patient-friendly approach to drug administration. This transition, however, requires careful management to ensure that therapeutic drug levels are maintained, preserving efficacy and avoiding adverse effects. Understanding pharmacokinetic principles and dosage calculations is critical during this process.Pharmacokinetics of the...

Nursing Implementation01:15

Nursing Implementation

6.5K
Implementation is the execution of the nursing care plan developed during the planning phase.
The five steps to implementing effective nursing care include reassessing the patient, reviewing and revising the existing nursing care plan, organizing the resources and care delivery, anticipating and preventing complications, and implementing nursing interventions.

Planning Nursing Care I

6.3K
The planning phase of the nursing process helps nurses set priorities, outline patient-centered goals and expected outcomes, and tailor nursing interventions to align with the aligned care plan. Through the planning phase, the nurse applies critical thinking skills to align and develop interventions according to the patient's needs. It provides continuity of care allowing patients to receive the maximum benefit from treatment. It serves as a pilot plan for allocating individual staff to a...

Drug Dosing: Geriatric Patients

339
Elderly individuals encompass a diverse population with varying degrees of age-related physiological changes. Defining the elderly presents challenges, as the geriatric population is often arbitrarily categorized as individuals older than 65. However, many individuals in this group lead active and healthy lives, with an increasing number surpassing 85 years and falling into the older elderly category. Physiological changes associated with aging impact performance capacity and homeostatic...

Patient-centered Care01:13

Patient-centered Care

3.2K
Patient-centered care involves delivering care beyond inpatient hospitalization. Reflective practice can enhance a patient-centered approach. Reflective practice is a process of reasoning that considers all aspects of the present situation, including practicalities, learning from personal practice, and consideration of patient needs. Patients appreciate care decisions made while considering their input. Involving the patient in their care provides the patient with a sense of contribution rather...

    Summary

    A pharmacy-driven transitions of care program showed numerically lower 30-day readmission rates. Patients receiving all pharmacist interventions had no readmissions, suggesting potential benefits for reducing hospital readmissions.

    Area of Science:

    • Pharmacy Practice
    • Health Services Research
    • Patient Safety

    Background:

    • Transitions of care (TOC) programs aim to reduce hospital readmissions.
    • Pharmacy-driven interventions are crucial for medication management during care transitions.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate a multifaceted, pharmacy-driven, unit-based TOC program's impact on 30-day all-cause readmission rates.
    • To assess readmission rates in specific patient subgroups.

    Main Methods:

    • Prospective study of adult patients discharged from a pilot unit.
    • Pharmacist interventions included medication review, bedside delivery, counseling, and provider communication.
    • 30-day follow-up for readmission assessment.

    Main Results:

    • Readmission rate was 12.8% in the pilot group vs. 18.8% in the historical control group (p=0.26).
    • No patients receiving all pharmacist interventions were readmitted.
    • Medication discrepancies were resolved prior to discharge.

    Conclusions:

    • The pharmacy-driven TOC program resulted in numerically lower, but not statistically significant, readmission rates.
    • Further resources and investigation are needed to confirm the sustained impact of TOC pharmacists.
