Filter by:An interventional study that aims to design, establish and implement an electronic application for management of the usage of anesthetics, antimicrobials, and analgesics in a pediatric surgery department, and assess the impact of the implementation of an electronic medication management application on the appropriateness of medication use in a pediatric surgery department
The primary objective of this project is to determine the estimated cost avoidance (ECA) resulting from medication therapy management (MTM) interventions in a patient-centered medical home (PCMH). The secondary objective of this study is to quantify the number and types of MTM interventions recommended by pharmacists and accepted by physicians within a PCMH.
Our objective is to design and test the efficacy of a health-literacy-informed discharge medication counseling intervention in the inpatient setting to reduce medication dosing errors and improve adherence in hospitalized children discharged on a new liquid medication.
This study sought to improve medication management by caregivers of community dwelling patients with dementia or simple memory loss. This was done by testing a tailored intervention delivered both in-home and by telephone by either a social worker or nurse. The intervention was designed to decrease medication deficiencies and improve medication adherence by developing problem solving skills.
The Study is a single-arm prospective trial of patients receiving at least one medication with a known association between genetics and drug metabolism. All patients will undergo genetic testing as determined by their treating physician. The specific genes tested will, in general, be based upon the drugs the patients are taking or those that the patient's treating physician is considering as potential substitutes for current medications.
Interactive telephony technologies offer a potentially highly effective, patient-centered communication modality by guiding parents at home through interactive discussions that can gather information and actively reinforce recommendations and treatments. Interactive telephony systems are particularly well suited for use in vulnerable populations since access to the telephone is nearly universal, and the system does not rely on reading printed text. The investigators propose to develop and evaluate an integrated patient-centered health information system, the Personal Health Partner (PHP). The PHP will use fully automated, interactive, conversations to gather personal health data and counsel parents before scheduled visits, exchange that data with the child's primary care clinician via the electronic health record (EHR), and offer personalized follow-up assessment and counseling after visits. The information technology-based approach to be evaluated in this project will link parents and children outside the clinical setting with their primary care center and will offer comprehensive assessments AND counseling to reinforce and support parental behavior change.
