Increasing the number of pharmacist-led medication order reviews using the available workforce: a retrospective study.

Background: Due to staffing constraints, several hospitals have defined targeting strategies for pharmacist-led medication order review, leaving non-targeted patients exposed to potential harmful drug-related problems (DRPs). Using targeting criteria to stratify medication order review level (level 1 (L1): orders, basic patient characteristics; level 2 (L2) or comprehensive medication order review: orders, patient characteristics, medical records, laboratory results) could make it possible to save time and increase the overall number of medication order reviews. This study aims to define targeting criteria to stratify medication order review level and estimate the time saved for the performance of additional medication order reviews.

[Thesaurus of pharmacist interventions associated with inappropriate proton pump inhibitors prescriptions].

Objectives: Proton pump inhibitors (PPI) are the most effective drugs in the treatment of acid-related gastrointestinal disorders. Yet, many studies reported potential adverse drug reactions associated with long-term use. In order to reduce the rates of inappropriate PPI prescriptions and to improve patient safety, a tool aimed at guiding pharmacists to analyze PPI prescriptions was designed.
