Febrile Illness Clinical Trial
Official title:
Communication About Medication Through the Medication List Coming Into the Hospital With the Patient, Being Changed in the Hospital and Then Returning With the Patient to the Community.
30 patients acute hospitalized to medical ward and their medication records are examined. It is to be recorded how the investigators find information about medicine use by the reception when they do not follow the patient. The record of the changes made during hospital stay is examined, whether they are justified in the discharge summaries and whether they are described in the medical list. After a month is to find out if the GP has recorded or possibly rejected changes to medication made in hospital.
Furthermore is to be recorded how the investigators find information about medicine use by
the reception when they do not follow the patient and how long it takes to find the right
medicine list. The record of the changes made during hospital stay is examined, whether they
are justified in the discharge summaries and whether they are described in the medical list.
After a month is to find out if the GP has recorded or possibly rejected changes to
medication made in hospital.
This shall be recorded in the review of 30 patient with a focus on their medication list and
follow them from admission to a month after discharge.
Medicine List in discharge summaries will be compared with medication written in journal
during hospital stay and changes described in the text summaries and medication lists should
be checked against the same journal.
Medicine list in the municipality one month after discharge shall be compared with discharge
summaries and it will be mapped on the GP register, modified and considered if they are
valid.
Hypothesis:
Medicine list is missing at admission by > 50% of patients admitted acutely into hospital.
Medicine List at admission, when available, is often incomplete. When the medication list is
not available at admission, its content is often incomplete even after the staff at
reception have tried to gather information from different sources.
Changes of regular medication is not always present in the discharge summaries. The changes
are not always justified in the discharge summaries. The GP often do not correct the
medication list in the journal to the discharge summary.
The GP does not give the patient an updated printout of the list at the first medical
consultation after admission.
