Filter by:CAR-T cells and cellular therapies may lead to various adverse reactions. This study investigates reports of different toxicities for cellular therapies in the World Health Organization's (WHO) global database of individual safety case reports (VigiBase).
Adverse drug reactions are an important public health consern that affects physician prescriptions and practice. The responsibilities of healthcare professionals in monitoring, prevention, treatment and reporting of drug hypersensitivity reactions and drug allergies are essential for patient safety. Providing drug safety must be one of the main goals to be achieved for every member of our society. In our study, we planned to evaluate the knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors of healthcare workers in our country about drug hypersensitivity reactions in pediatric patients and to determine the risk factors that may affect them.
Patients meeting eligibility criteria will be randomized into two groups, one receiving pharmacogenetic testing and the other not receiving pharmacogenetic testing. In this open-label trial, a pharmacist will make medication therapy recommendations using YouScript® Personalized Prescribing System for patients who receive genetic testing and standard drug information resources per usual for patients who do not undergo pharmacogenetic testing.
This registry aims to monitor the safety of Compound Kuh-seng Injection and to identify the potential risk factors for the adverse drug reactions. Compound Kuh-seng Injection is a kind of natural compound injection extracted from herbs Kuh-seng (Radix Sophorae Flavescentis) and Rhizoma Heterosmilacis Japonicae.
This multicenter observational study aims to investigate the benefits of providing pharmacogenetic testing with the YouScript Personalized Prescribing System which includes a clinical decision support tool and individualized pharmacist recommendations to elderly polypharmacy patients who are most at risk of adverse drug events. The YouScript system is unique in identifying drug-gene, and drug-drug-gene interactions that are missed by existing systems, and represent over 35% of significant interaction warnings. Data analysis will assess the impact of recommendations for medication changes on clinical decision making, patient outcomes, and healthcare resource utilization to determine which medications, specialties, or patient segments derive the greatest benefit from this intervention. Data gathered from patients enrolled in this study will be compared to patients matched on key characteristics from Inovalon's MORE2 healthcare database.
Adverse drug events are unintended and harmful events related to medication use and a leading cause of emergency department visits, unplanned hospital admissions and deaths. In the emergency department, physicians frequently misdiagnose adverse drug events leading to treatment delays. Our objective is to evaluate the effect of pharmacist-led medication review in high-risk emergency department patients on prolonged hospital stay. This prospective multi-centre, quasi-randomized study is nested within an existing quality improvement program. Triage nurses flag incoming emergency department patients at high-risk for adverse drug events by applying a clinical decision rule consisting of four variables (co-morbid conditions, antibiotic use within 7 days, medication changes within 28 days, and age). Consecutive eligible high-risk patients are enrolled into the medication review study, and systematically allocated to pharmacist-led medication review or usual care. In the intervention group, medication review pharmacists collect best-possible medication histories, review the patient's medications for appropriateness and adverse drug events, and communicate the results of medication review to patients, caregivers and physicians. In the usual care group, physicians refer patients to onsite pharmacists for medication management questions on an as needed basis. Health outcomes are assessed using anonymized data linkage to administrative health databases. The primary outcome is the percent of days spent in hospital during the first 30 days after the index emergency department visit
Primary Objective: To quantify the benefits of the SENATOR decision support software on the reduction of ADR rates in older hospitalized patients. Secondary Objectives: To evaluate the effect of SENATOR with regard to use of appropriate nonâpharmacological therapies in subjects with one core geriatric syndrome. Tertiary Objectives: to examine the association of SENATOR use with subject survival, morbidity and health related quality of life. Health Economic Objective: To examine the potential health economic consequences of using SENATOR. There are two study phases: Phase I: Prospective multinational, multicentre observational study to estimate the baseline adjudicated medical and surgical ADR rates by clinical subspeciality in 6 international sites. Phase II: Prospective multinational, multicentre, block randomized, two parallel arm, open label, controlled trial, with blinded outcome ascertainment, of the efficacy of SENATOR software in reducing ADRs in older hospitalized subjects.

The next four decades will see a marked expansion of the elderly population in Ireland, in particular people aged over 80 yrs. Persons aged over 80 are the highest consumers of prescription medicines in Ireland and have the highest prevalence rates of major polypharmacy. Polypharmacy is intimately linked with serious adverse drug events (ADEs) and consequent major morbidity and mortality. Epidemiological data from the Unites States indicate that ADEs is the fifth most common cause of death nationally. Experts suggest that effective evidence based interventions can be applied to this major public health problem. A recently described approach to hospitalised older patients' medication optimisation is that of Spinewine and colleagues at Louvain University, Belgium. In this model, a pharmacist with expertise in geriatric pharmacotherapy routinely reviews the prescriptions of older patients from admission to discharge. The pharmacist provides a detailed pharmaceutical care plan for older patients and their carers where appropriate as well as feedback information to prescribers in the event of detecting instances of probable medication inappropriateness. Whenever an opportunity for medication optimisation is identified, the pharmacist discusses the opportunity with the prescriber who can accept or reject the intervention. At discharge from hospital, the pharmacist also provides written and verbal information on treatment changes to the patient / caregiver and GP. The intervention therefore represents a comprehensive pharmaceutical care approach that is based upon careful review and subsequent consensus on individualised pharmacotherapy. In an RCT comparison of this approach with standard care, older patients in the intervention arm of the study had significant improvements in medication appropriateness (medication appropriateness index (MAI), Beers' criteria, and Assessing Care of Vulnerable Elders (ACOVE) criteria.). Expert pharmacist review of older peoples' medication in hospital is a proven intervention in term of reducing inappropriateness of medication.
This was a retrospective cohort study of pregnant women who had received the AdimFlu-S (A/H1N1) influenza vaccine during gestation period. Eligibility into the study was confirmed by chart review. If subject meets the eligibility criteria during the study period, data from the medical chart were extracted retrospectively from the date of vaccination and the infant (s) health status were followed until 8 weeks after the delivery.The unexposed cohort included pregnant women who did not receive any influenza vaccine during pregnancy. Within each participated study center, women who were gestation after April 2009 were randomly selected according to maternal age matching. The pregnancy outcome, including the status of delivery, abortion and gestational age, were extracted retrospectively by chart review.
