Pharmacovigilance01:19

Pharmacovigilance

963
Post-marketing surveillance is a critical component of pharmaceutical regulation, often uncovering unanticipated adverse drug reactions (ADRs) once a drug is widely used over an extended period.
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.
In some cases, there...

Assessment of the Gastrointestinal System I: Subjective Data01:17

Assessment of the Gastrointestinal System I: Subjective Data

256
Assessing the gastrointestinal (GI) system is a complex process that begins with collecting subjective data. This data, collected through patient interviews, provides crucial insights into the patient's health history, perception patterns, and lifestyle habits, all contributing significantly to GI health.
Health History
The initial step in assessing the GI system is obtaining a comprehensive health history. This includes inquiring about the patient's history or presence of problems...

Drug Regulation01:25

Drug Regulation

1.7K
Drug regulation encompasses the management of drug usage by evaluating its safety and efficacy through assessments conducted by regulatory authorities. Regrettably, the history of drug regulation is marred by several catastrophic events. One such incident is the Elixir Sulfanilamide tragedy, in which the toxic compound diethyl glycol was included in a sweet-tasting medication, leading to numerous fatalities. This event prompted the enactment of the Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act in 1938. Under...

Drug Dosage Regimen: Overview01:15

Drug Dosage Regimen: Overview

3.7K
A drug dosage regimen describes the specific instructions and schedule for administering a drug to a patient. It considers factors such as drug dosage, frequency, route of administration, and duration of treatment. Designing an appropriate dosage regimen for a patient aims to achieve a target drug concentration at the site of action.
Typically, the starting dose and dosing interval are guided by the manufacturer's recommendations based on clinical trials conducted during and after drug...

Drug Administration and Therapy Phases: Overview01:26

Drug Administration and Therapy Phases: Overview

658
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...

Factors Affecting Drug Response: Overview01:21

Factors Affecting Drug Response: Overview

2.1K
When it comes to infants and young children, they are typically administered smaller doses of medication in comparison to adults. This is primarily because their organ functions still need to fully develop, meaning their bodies are not as efficient at metabolizing or eliminating drugs. Additionally, their blood-brain barrier is more permeable than in adults. As a result, high concentrations of drugs can easily penetrate the central nervous system (CNS), potentially leading to neurological...

Area of Science:

  • Health Informatics
  • Patient Safety
  • Digital Health

Background:

  • Medication use is prevalent in healthcare, leading to common medication-related problems.
  • Adverse drug events (ADEs) are unintended, harmful effects of medications.
  • Underreporting of ADEs hinders medication safety evaluation, often due to a lack of accessible reporting tools for consumers.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a user-friendly digital tool enabling consumers to report medication-related adverse effects.
  • To enhance the reporting of adverse drug events by providing an accessible platform for consumers.

Main Methods:

  • A 3-part approach: content development via systematic literature search, iterative system development, and usability testing.
  • Utilized participatory design principles, involving stakeholders throughout the process.
  • Developed a web application, tested with consumers using a modified mHealth app usability questionnaire (MAUQ).

Main Results:

  • The system's content was refined based on literature searches and consumer feedback.
  • Usability testing with 26 consumers showed high user satisfaction, with 79% scoring 6 or 7 on the MAUQ.
  • The system achieved high average scores for ease of use (6.3) and interface/satisfaction (6.3), with a notable score for usefulness (5.2).

Conclusions:

  • A user-friendly, web-based system for reporting medication adverse effects was successfully developed using an iterative, participatory design.
  • Future work will focus on enhancing system usefulness, scalability, and real-world performance testing.
