Drug Toxicity: Risk factors01:24

Drug Toxicity: Risk factors

Adverse Drug Reactions (ADRs) are potential complications that arise during pharmacotherapy, influenced by multiple risk factors. Age plays a significant role; both neonates and the elderly are at heightened risk due to their respective immature and diminished metabolic and elimination processes. Gender also impacts ADRs, with females experiencing a 1.5 to 1.7-fold greater risk than males, which may be linked to pharmacokinetic, pharmacodynamic, and hormonal differences. Notably, neonates, the...

Pharmaceutical Poisoning: Potential Scenarios

Pharmaceutical poisoning can occur through various channels, impacting an estimated 2 million hospitalized patients in the U.S. annually with serious adverse drug responses. These scenarios encompass both therapeutic uses, such as drug toxicity, where even standard dosages can lead to severe central nervous system depression, and non-therapeutic exposures, including accidental ingestion by children, and environmental and occupational exposures.Unintentional poisonings often involve exploratory...

Current Trends in Nursing II01:30

Current Trends in Nursing II

Trends in nursing are multifactorial and associated with changes in society, within the nursing profession, and in other professions. Notably, telehealth and remote nursing contribute to successful healthcare delivery for numerous patients and help reduce stress for nurses due to nursing shortages. Nurses can reach patients, monitor their conditions, and interact with them using computers, audio, visual accessories, and telephones—for example, remote patient monitoring systems. Likewise,...

Drug Dosing: Geriatric Patients01:15

Drug Dosing: Geriatric Patients

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...

Area of Science:

  • Nursing
  • Patient Safety
  • Health Systems Engineering

Background:

  • Medication errors by nurses pose significant patient safety risks.
  • Systematic approaches are needed to identify contributing factors and develop prevention strategies.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To systematically analyze risk factors for medication errors among nurses using the SEIPS model.
  • To quantify major risk factors through meta-analysis.
  • To provide evidence-based recommendations for prevention.

Main Methods:

  • Searched OVID-MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, and Korean databases.
  • Screened 16 studies using the Quality Assessment and Validity Tool for Correlation Studies.
  • Categorized risk factors by SEIPS components and conducted meta-analysis.

Main Results:

  • Identified 34 significant risk factors across 4 SEIPS components; none in the tool/technology component.
  • Lack of training (AOR=3.75), interruptions (AOR=3.06), and unavailable guidelines (AOR=1.98) showed strongest associations with errors.
  • Pooled adjusted odds ratios (AORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated.

Conclusions:

  • Preventing medication errors requires system-wide interventions addressing multiple interacting risk factors.
  • Prioritizing continuous education, minimizing interruptions, and ensuring accessible guidelines are critical.
  • Future research should focus on developing and evaluating interventions targeting these primary risk factors.
