To ensure the safe use of oral anticancer drugs, oncology pharmacy consultations (OPCs) have been established in France. Their goal is to provide the patient with the means to identify, prevent and limit adverse effects and to know who to refer to in case of a serious adverse effect, perform a pharmaceutical analysis of the prescription, and participate in the improvement and evaluation of overall compliance. OPCs are conditioned by the needs, expectations, and involvement of the patients in their care. In healthcare, patients are increasingly encouraged to play an active role in the knowledge and management of their health, express their concerns and preferences, and participate in medical decisions. Thus, it is essential to elicit their preferences. The discrete-choice experiment (DCE) is the validated and recommended method of the International Society for Pharmacoeconomics and Outcomes Research for such a task.
The objective is to evaluate the impact of a pharmacist-led therapeutic education intervention on the knowledge of hospitalized heart failure patients. The knowledge score on heart failure disease and medications will be compared between two groups one month after hospitalization. The intervention group will receive a therapeutic education intervention and usual hospital care and the control group will receive only usual hospital care.
This study aims to examine the opinions and needs of pharmacists and pharmaceutical technical assistants (FTA) concerning their role as gatekeepers in suicide prevention. The primary objective is to map the experiences and needs of (public) pharmacists and FTA with regard to suicide prevention. The secondary objective is to be able to develop more targeted tools, interventions or trainings based on the results of the needs assessment in order to facilitate the role of (public) pharmacists and FTA as gatekeepers in suicide prevention.
Hypertension, diabetes, and obesity are considered major risk factors for cardiovascular diseases and premature mortality worldwide. Furthermore, they have severe consequences on quality of life among patients. With increasing challenges facing the healthcare systems, pharmacists are well positioned to take on a greater role in the management of chronic diseases. The present study aims to investigate the impact of pharmacist counselling on the clinical outcomes (weight, mortality, blood pressure, blood glucose) of hypertensive, diabetic, and obese patients.
The study was a non-randomized controlled trial of 12-months' follow-up with 182 Spanish community pharmacists. Intervention community pharmacists received the CESAR training to improve their smoking cessation services, consisting of an initial interview and follow-up visits to identify obstacles and reinforce behaviours. The control group received the usual care. Data were self-reported and collected in a computerized health registration system. Outcomes were smoking cessation and quality of life (EuroQOL-5D) collected at baseline, 6 months', and 12 months' follow-up. Cost data were collected for the study period and included direct health costs, sick leave, and intervention costs. Smoking cessation was analysed through logistic regression models. Generalized linear models were carried out for quality-adjusted life year costs. Incremental cost-effectiveness ratios (ICERs) and cost-utility ratios (RCUI) were calculated. Sensitivity analyses were performed.
The clinical pharmacists present in the hospitalisation units aim to ensure the daily review of the drug prescriptions of hospitalized patients. In order to optimize their work, the objective of this study would be to provide them with a clinical decision support tool via artificial intelligence in order to improve the patient's medication management. This study will test the Pharmaclass® software.
This pragmatic, cluster-randomized trial in adult primary care clinics in a healthcare system with a diverse membership will examine the effectiveness of an innovative, multi-faceted intervention, the Addiction Telemedicine Consultant (ATC) service using clinical pharmacists to facilitate alcohol use problems and alcohol use disorder (AUD) pharmacotherapy and specialty addiction treatment entry.
This study is a randomized controlled trial across 14 community pharmacies to test the efficacy of the Brief Intervention-Medication Therapy Management intervention (BI-MTM). The establishment of the BI-MTM model will result in a major impact for addressing the opioid epidemic, preventing opioid use disorder and overdose, and safeguarding patient health in a novel community-based service setting.
This is a clinical trial evaluating the experimental intervention of enhanced pharmacist care by pharmacists with additional prescribing authorization (APA) in Alberta, for patients newly diagnosed with Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) and Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD).
