[Identification of psychosocially stressed families by practice pediatricians : Results on the effectiveness of the PATH (Pediatric Attention To Help) intervention].

Association between continuity of care and inappropriate prescribing in outpatient care in Germany: a cross-sectional analysis conducted as part of the LoChro trial.

Objectives: Potentially inappropriate medications (PIMs) and potential prescribing omissions (PPOs) are common in multimorbid patients.

Design: Cross-sectional study using patient-confirmed outpatient medication plans to describe PIMs and PPOs using the 'Screening Tool of Older Person's Prescription/Screening Tool to Alert to Right Treatment' version 2.
