Drug Therapy01:28

Drug Therapy

246
The advent of drug therapy has profoundly shaped modern mental health care, providing targeted treatments for a range of psychological disorders. Psychotherapeutic drugs, classified into antianxiety, antidepressant, and antipsychotic medications, address symptoms across anxiety disorders, mood disorders, and schizophrenia. While these medications have transformed patient outcomes, they require careful management due to their potential side effects and limitations.

Nurses are essential in patient care, upholding the ethical principles of their profession and effectively navigating ethical dilemmas. Neglecting ethical issues can lead to inadequate patient care, compromised therapeutic relationships, and moral distress among healthcare workers.

Drug Dosing: Geriatric Patients

228
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...

Effect of Hepatic Disease on Pharmacokinetics: Dose Adjustments Due to Hepatic Impairment01:08

Effect of Hepatic Disease on Pharmacokinetics: Dose Adjustments Due to Hepatic Impairment

257
Hepatic impairment, characterized by decreased liver function, does not uniformly mandate adjustments in drug dosage. Whether dosage modifications are necessary depends on various factors related to the drug's metabolism and elimination pathways. If a drug is primarily excreted via the kidneys and bypasses significant hepatic processing, if it undergoes minimal metabolic transformation in the liver, or if it is volatile and primarily expelled through the lungs, dose adjustments may not be...

Stereotypes, Prejudice, and Discrimination02:55

Stereotypes, Prejudice, and Discrimination

95.0K
Humans are very diverse and although we share many similarities, we also have many differences. The social groups we belong to help form our identities (Tajfel, 1974). These differences may be difficult for some people to reconcile, which may lead to prejudice toward people who are different. Prejudice is a negative attitude and feeling toward an individual based solely on one’s membership in a particular social group (Allport, 1954; Brown, 2010). Prejudice is common against people who...

Factors Affecting Protein-Drug Binding: Patient-Related Factors01:29

Factors Affecting Protein-Drug Binding: Patient-Related Factors

305
Protein-drug binding, a pivotal aspect of pharmacokinetics, is subject to considerable variability influenced by an array of patient-related factors. The intricate interplay of age, individual differences, and pathological conditions significantly impact the binding dynamics and subsequent pharmacological effects.
Age stands as a key determinant in protein-drug binding. Neonates, characterized by low albumin content, experience heightened concentrations of unbound drugs such as phenytoin and...

Area of Science:

  • Health Services Research
  • Health Disparities
  • Health Equity

Background:

  • Marginalized populations often face challenges in adhering to prescribed medication regimens.
  • Patient-provider relationship dynamics, including racial/ethnic concordance, may influence health outcomes.
  • Understanding factors that promote medication adherence is crucial for managing chronic diseases.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the impact of patient-provider racial/ethnic concordance on medication adherence.
  • To focus on chronic conditions including hypertension, heart disease, elevated cholesterol, and diabetes.
  • To analyze adherence rates within marginalized populations.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized the Andersen-Newman Behavioral Model of Health Service Use.
  • Estimated multivariate linear models using Medical Expenditure Panel Survey (MEPS) data (2007-2017).
  • Analyzed prescription-filling behavior, controlling for demographic, socioeconomic, and health factors.

Main Results:

  • A positive association was found between racial/ethnic patient-provider concordance and medication adherence.
  • Non-White patients filled prescriptions significantly less often than White patients.
  • Racial/ethnic concordance increased prescription refills for Black, Hispanic, and Asian patients across various chronic conditions.

Conclusions:

  • Patient-provider racial/ethnic concordance is linked to a higher likelihood of medication adherence.
  • This effect is particularly pronounced for patients with specific chronic diseases.
  • Findings support policy implications aimed at improving health equity through diverse healthcare interactions.
