Therapeutic Drug Monitoring: Affecting Factors

69
Therapeutic Drug Monitoring (TDM) is the clinical practice of measuring specific drug levels in a patient's blood or body tissues to manage and optimize therapy. TDM is crucial for drugs with narrow therapeutic windows, like warfarin and phenytoin, where incorrect doses can lead to treatment failure or severe side effects. This monitoring ensures the dosage administered is within a safe and effective range. The factors affecting therapeutic drug monitoring include:Patient-Specific Factors:a.

Area of Science:

  • Gerontology
  • Pharmacology
  • Rehabilitation Medicine

Background:

  • Skilled nursing facilities (SNFs) are adopting Self-Medication Programs (SMPs).
  • SMPs empower patients to manage their own medications during rehabilitation.
  • This promotes independence and prepares patients for discharge.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the implementation of an SMP in a veteran population.
  • To evaluate the program's role in regaining independence post-stroke.
  • To assess outcomes related to medication adherence and knowledge.

Main Methods:

  • A 57-year-old male veteran participated in the Cincinnati VA SMP.
  • The program involved patient education on self-management of medications.
  • Medications were kept in the patient's room for self-administration.

Main Results:

  • The veteran regained independence in managing his medications.
  • The program aimed to increase medication adherence and knowledge.
  • Successful transition to self-care post-stroke was facilitated.

Conclusions:

  • Self-Medication Programs can effectively enhance patient independence in SNFs.
  • SMPs are a valuable tool for improving medication management and adherence.
  • This approach supports successful rehabilitation and discharge planning.
