[Evaluation of the organisational and clinical impacts of supply chain problems in a university hospital].

Drug supply problems are a real public health concern. Despite the implementation of legal measures, this problem is still relevant, with potential clinical, organizational and financial consequences in hospitals. The objective is to evaluate the organizational and clinical impact of supply problems in a hospital.

COVID-19 mass vaccination - an illustration of the impact of syringe choice on the effectiveness of mass vaccination campaigns.

In order to optimise the operational implementation of mass vaccination policies, it is critical to consider not only the supply of vaccines as well as each element of the vaccination process. This study, which was conducted in a vaccination center clearly shows how the choice of a syringe reference used during the COVID-19 vaccination campaign influences the number of vaccine doses available. The results appear to be closely related to the type of vaccine used (COMIRNATY® and SPIKEVAX®).

"When did you decide to receive the Covid-19 vaccine?" Survey in a high-volume vaccination center.

Highly efficient and safe Covid-19 vaccines are available in Europe in amounts that theoretically allow for a high immune coverage. However, a notable proportion of the population is reluctant toward immunization. We aimed to determine, among people who chose to be vaccinated, when they made the decision and whether they would have preferred an earlier vaccination.

[Diffusion of pharmacist interventions within the framework of clinical pharmacy activity in the clinical ward].

Background: Computerised physician order entry (CPOE) and the integration of a pharmacist in clinical wards have been shown to prevent medication errors.

Objectives: The objectives were to describe interventions performed by a clinical pharmacist integrated into clinical wards with CPOE, to assess the acceptance of interventions by prescribers, and to describe factors associated with acceptance.

Methods: A 3-week prospective study was conducted in five wards of a 2000-bed French teaching hospital.
