Methods Of Healthcare Delivery System

3.1K
At the different levels of the healthcare system, we see varying methods of healthcare used. These methods include managed care systems, case management, and primary healthcare.
Managed Care System:
The managed care system is designed to control the cost while maintaining the quality of care. The patient's care from admission to discharge is planned by the primary care provider or the case manager, also known as the gatekeeper. In a managed care system, the number of care providers is...

The case management model is a multidisciplinary approach that involves healthcare professionals from diverse disciplines, such as physicians, nurses, therapists, social workers, and pharmacists, working collaboratively to address the various needs of patients. Each healthcare professional brings unique expertise and perspectives, contributing to a more comprehensive understanding of the patient's condition and tailoring treatment plans accordingly.
For example, a patient with a chronic...

Drug Classes and Categories01:25

Drug Classes and Categories

1.9K
Drugs can be classified according to their chemical composition or their intended therapeutic application. For instance, anti-infective agents that possess the ability to eliminate pathogens or suppress their growth and reproduction can be grouped based on the organisms they target or their chemical structure. Furthermore, drugs can be divided into prescription, nonprescription, or controlled substances. Prescription medications, such as antibiotics, require oversight from a licensed healthcare...

Cardiovascular Drugs: Classification based on Therapeutic Indications

2.0K
Cardiovascular diseases, encompassing a range of conditions, can significantly affect the heart's operations and the overall circulatory system. These conditions impair the heart's ability to pump blood, leading to a deficit in oxygen supply to crucial organs. Anomalies in the heart's electrical system, known as arrhythmias, can cause heartbeats to accelerate or slow down. Usually, heart rates increase during physical activity and decrease while resting or sleeping. However,...

Area of Science:

  • Pharmaceutical Policy and Management
  • Health Services Research
  • Medicinal Law and Regulation

Background:

  • The medicine control governance in Brunei Darussalam is complex, guided by legislation and the Brunei Darussalam Medicines Control Authority (BDMCA).
  • The nation's medicine dispensing system, spanning public and private sectors, is crucial for healthcare but lacks in-depth research.
  • Existing research has not fully explored the distinctions, challenges, and opportunities within Brunei Darussalam's medicine dispensing landscape.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate pharmacists' perspectives on medicine dispensing systems in Brunei Darussalam.
  • To explore views on medicine accessibility, classification, and regulation within the country.
  • To understand the evolving role and expectations of pharmacists in the national healthcare environment.

Main Methods:

  • A qualitative narrative approach was employed for the study.
  • In-depth, one-on-one interviews were conducted with six pharmacists.
  • Thematic analysis, following Braun & Clarke's framework, was used to analyze collected narratives.

Main Results:

  • Five key themes emerged, including the nuances of medicine dispensing across public and private sectors.
  • Insights were gained into medicine accessibility and regulatory frameworks, both domestically and internationally.
  • Differential perspectives between governmental and private sector pharmacists were identified, alongside the evolving role of pharmacists.

Conclusions:

  • This study illuminates the under-researched medicine control governance and dispensing system in Brunei Darussalam.
  • First-hand experiences from pharmacists offer actionable insights for policy development and system optimization.
  • The findings can help refine medicine regulation and shape the future role of pharmacists in Brunei Darussalam.
