Drug Dosing: Geriatric Patients01:15

Drug Dosing: Geriatric Patients

281
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...

The development of extended-release formulations has facilitated the transition from intravenous to oral medication, offering a more convenient and patient-friendly approach to drug administration. This transition, however, requires careful management to ensure that therapeutic drug levels are maintained, preserving efficacy and avoiding adverse effects. Understanding pharmacokinetic principles and dosage calculations is critical during this process.Pharmacokinetics of the...

Drug Administration and Therapy Phases: Overview

1.5K
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.

Dosage Regimens: Designs and Approaches

347
Designing a dosage regimen, which refers to the manner of drug administration, is a complex process involving the selection of drug dose, route, and frequency. This process is underpinned by pharmacokinetic parameters derived from tests and population averages. These parameters are then tailored to patient-specific variables such as diagnosis, demographics, and allergy status. Once therapy commences, therapeutic response monitoring is critical and achieved through clinical and physical...

Determination of Multiple Dosing Parameters: Loading and Maintenance Doses

268
A loading dose is an essential pharmacological strategy to rapidly achieve the target plasma drug concentration necessary for an immediate therapeutic effect. This approach is especially critical for drugs characterized by slow absorption or extended half-lives, where delaying therapeutic plasma levels could compromise treatment outcomes. By administering a loading dose, clinicians ensure a prompt onset of drug action, even for agents with complex pharmacokinetic profiles.Achieving steady-state...

Area of Science:

  • Pharmacy Education
  • Leadership Development
  • Healthcare Management

Background:

  • Leadership transitions in pharmacy residency programs can affect program continuity and quality.
  • A lack of established best practices exists for transferring the Residency Program Director (RPD) role.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe and evaluate a longitudinal process for transitioning the RPD role in an ASHP-accredited program.
  • To establish best practices for RPD leadership succession.

Main Methods:

  • A systematic review of documents and materials from a 12-month RPD transition.
  • Consensus-based categorization of transition elements by the study team.
  • Evaluation of program metrics (applicant numbers, evaluation timeliness) pre-, during-, and post-transition.

Main Results:

  • A detailed transition timeline and task list were developed.
  • Program quality indicators remained stable or improved.
  • Applicant numbers were maintained, and on-time evaluations increased, though initial development plans saw a slight decrease.

Conclusions:

  • A structured RPD transition plan facilitates program quality maintenance and smooth succession.
  • Leveraging RPD-specific skills and fostering openness to adjustments are crucial for successful transitions.
