Deep learning classification of drug-related problems from pharmaceutical interventions issued by hospital clinical pharmacists during medication prescription review: a large-scale descriptive retrospective study in a French university hospital.

Objectives: Pharmaceutical interventions are proposals made by hospital clinical pharmacists to address sub-optimal uses of medications during prescription review. Pharmaceutical interventions include the identification of drug-related problems, their prevention and resolution. The objective of this study was to exploit a newly developed deep neural network classifier to identify drug-related problems from pharmaceutical interventions and perform a large retrospective descriptive analysis of them in a French university hospital over a 3-year period.

Deep learning application to automated classification of recommendations made by hospital pharmacists during medication prescription review.

Purpose: Recommendations to improve therapeutics are proposals made by pharmacists during the prescription review process to address suboptimal use of medicines. Recommendations are generated daily as text documents but are rarely reused beyond their primary use to alert prescribers and caregivers. If recommendation data were easier to summarize, they could be used retrospectively to improve safeguards for better prescribing.

Using machine learning or deep learning models in a hospital setting to detect inappropriate prescriptions: a systematic review.

Objectives: The emergence of artificial intelligence (AI) is catching the interest of hospital pharmacists. A massive collection of health data is now available to train AI models and hold the promise of disrupting codes and practices. The objective of this systematic review was to examine the state of the art of machine learning or deep learning models that detect inappropriate hospital medication orders.
