Prescription, Nonprescription and Orphan Drugs

658
Prescription drugs require a prescription from a medical practitioner and can only be obtained from a pharmacy. They have many applications, including treating pain, anxiety, and hypertension.
The misuse and addiction to prescription drugs is a growing problem that can affect people of all age groups, specifically teenagers. This can happen when prescription medications are used in ways not intended by the prescriber, such as taking someone else's prescription or using medication for...

Preclinical Development: Overview01:28

Preclinical Development: Overview

4.0K
Preclinical development consists of a series of tests that ensure the safety and efficacy of a new therapeutic compound before it is tested in humans. There are four main phases to this process. First, safety pharmacology tests are conducted to ensure the drug does not produce any acutely harmful effects. These tests examine parameters such as bronchoconstriction, cardiac dysrhythmias, blood pressure changes, and ataxia. Next, preliminary toxicological testing is performed to determine the...

Additional Routes of Drug Administration

2.7K
Choosing the appropriate route of drug administration is significantly influenced by two key factors: the therapeutic objectives and the inherent properties of the drug being used.
Administering drugs via inhalation allows for the direct delivery of gaseous, volatile substances or droplets to different parts of the respiratory tract. One of the advantages of the inhalation route is the rapid absorption of drugs into the circulatory system, which is possible because of the large surface area of...

Nursing Process for Patient and Caregiver Teaching II: Planning and Implementation

Planning for learning involves the development of a teaching plan. Teaching plans are similar to nursing care plans—both follow the steps of the nursing process. Planning in the teaching process involves setting goals and outcomes. Here, goals identify what a patient needs to achieve to understand a healthcare topic better, whereas the outcomes are the action to be performed by the patient to achieve the goal within a timeframe. For example, if the goal is to educate the patient about...

Drug Delivery: Parenteral Route

322
The parenteral route is a critical method of drug administration. It delivers compounds directly into the systemic circulation and bypasses the gastrointestinal tract. This approach is particularly advantageous for drugs that exhibit poor absorption or instability when administered orally.
There are three primary parenteral routes: intravenous (IV), intramuscular (IM), and subcutaneous (SC). The IV route introduces the drug directly into the bloodstream, ensuring immediate action. The IM route...

Area of Science:

  • Healthcare Education
  • Pharmacy Practice
  • Clinical Supervision

Background:

  • The National Health Service (NHS) faces a shortage of Designated Prescribing Practitioners (DPPs) crucial for supervising trainee non-medical prescribers (NMPs).
  • Allied healthcare professionals (HCPs) require specific competencies to fulfill the DPP role effectively.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the impact of a novel five-session educational course on the knowledge and confidence of HCPs regarding DPP competencies.
  • To assess the willingness of participants to undertake the DPP role following the training.

Main Methods:

  • A pre- and post-training questionnaire survey was administered to participants (n=80) from diverse HCP backgrounds.
  • The survey utilized Likert scales (1-10) to measure knowledge and confidence in the Royal Pharmaceutical Society (RPS) competency framework.
  • Participant demographics and prior DPP experience were also collected.

Main Results:

  • Significant increases in average knowledge scores (from 5.09 to 9.17, p<0.0001) and confidence levels (from 5.49 to 9.20, p<0.0001) were observed.
  • 64% of participants expressed strong likelihood of becoming DPPs post-course, with 90% indicating no need for further training.
  • Knowledge and confidence gains were notable across pharmacists, nurses, and paramedics.

Conclusions:

  • The developed educational course effectively enhances HCPs' knowledge and confidence in DPP competencies.
  • Implementing this program can contribute to increasing the NMP workforce, supporting NHS objectives for long-term plans and recovery.
  • The course demonstrates a beneficial approach to preparing HCPs for supervisory prescribing roles.
