NCT ID: NCT06378099 Not yet recruiting - Clinical trials for Community Pharmacy Services

Evaluation of the Effect of Consensual Pharmaceutical Indication Protocols for the Treatment of Minor Ailments

InFaPro
Start date: August 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Minor ailments are non-serious, short-term health problems, not related to the patient's pathologies or to the desired or undesired effects of the medications they are taking. Pharmaceutical indication is the service provided in response to a patient's request, who comes to the pharmacy asking for a medication recommendation for a health problem; for this purpose, over-the-counter medications are used, which are pharmacological agents that can be acquired without a prescription. The practice of pharmaceutical indication turns self-medication into a safe and responsible practice, but it requires agreed-upon protocols.

NCT ID: NCT05609981 Recruiting - Polypharmacy Clinical Trials

Optimising Medication With Focus on Deprescribing in Frail Older People With Multidose Drug Dispensing Systems

Start date: November 10, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Overuse is common in frail older people with polypharmacy, especially in frail older users of multidose drug dispensing (MDD) systems. In this study, we will investigate the effect of a clinical medication review (CMR) with integration of deprescribing (toolbox) on the number of ceased and dose lowered medications (persistent after 6 months) compared to usual care in older users of MDD systems with hyperpolypharmacy. We will perform a controlled cluster-randomized trial in 38 community pharmacies. Per pharmacy, 10 older patients (>= 75) with hyperpolyfpharmacy (>10 medicines in use) with a MDD will be included. Pharmacists will receive training to perform the intervention, a 5-step CMR with a deprescribing toolbox (including deprescribing protocols): 1) patient interview; 2) pharmacotherapeutic analysis; 3) pharmacist and GP discuss actions; 4) actions are discussed with patient; 5) (two)weekly follow-up.

Effects of Communication Training to Involve Older People in Decisions to DEPRESCRIBE Cardiometabolic Medication: a Cluster-randomized Trial in Primary Care

CO-DEPRESCRIBE
Start date: January 7, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The researchers will investigate the effects of a communication training for community pharmacists and general physicians that aims to make it easier for them to stop or lower medication for cardiovascular disease and/or diabetes in older patients. The researchers expect that trained community pharmacists and general physicians will stop or lower medication for cardiovascular disease and/or diabetes in more patients compared to untrained community pharmacists and general physicians. The researchers will recruit local teams consisting of a community pharmacist and one or more general physician, and allocate each team to either group I or group II. All teams in group I are first being trained, before they conduct a study-specific clinical medication review in 10 patients per team. All teams in group II will first conduct a more general clinical medication review in 10 patients per team too, before receiving the training. Patients will only be included after meeting in- and exlcusion criteria and signing an informed consent form. During the conduct of the study, the researchers will collect patient reported data and data on the conduct of the medication reviews. Retrospectively, the researchers will also collect data on the medication use of the patients from the pharmacy information system and specific medical data related to cardiometabolic disease of the patients from the physician's information system. The researchers will also assess the total costs and benefits of the intervention, and evaluate the training for the purpose of future implementation.

Effectiveness of a Multidisciplinary Medication Review With Follow-up for Patients Treated With Coumarin Anticoagulants in Primary Care

Start date: May 22, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The interdisciplinary collaboration between doctors, nurses and pharmacists, can facilitate the control of patients under treatment with coumarin anticoagulants, increasing their safety and effectiveness. On the other hand, the clinical utility of tools such as pharmacogenetics and the SAME-TT2R2 is unexplored. Based on the foregoing, it seems necessary to study the impact of the Program of medication review with follow-up in collaboration with doctors and nurses in primary care improves the degree of control of the patients under treatment with coumarin anticoagulants. Method: a randomized, controlled study for the main objective. Population and scope of study: Patients on treatment with coumarin anticoagulants with time in therapeutic range (TTR) according to the method of Rosendaal less than 70% in follow-up from primary care in a health area of the Arrabal Health Center (Zaragoza, Spain). Each patient will be followed by a period of 6 months. After this period, patients in the control group (CG) will receive the service of medication review with follow-up for a period of time equivalent (6 months). Intervention: Program of pharmacotherapy follow-up. Variables result: Stability of the INR, drug adherence, intake of vitamin K, knowledge of the patient on the use of acenocoumarol, associated costs, avoided costs, quality of life, satisfaction of patients and professionals involved. Statistical analysis and sample size: 204 patients. Multivariate analysis will be used and cost-effectiveness..
