Article Synopsis
- The study was conducted to improve the detection of adverse drug reactions (ADRs) in the emergency department (ED) using trigger tools, which are effective but were previously only used for retrospective analysis.
- A total of 463 patient records were analyzed, revealing a 13.39% prevalence of ADRs, with many classified as probable and predictable, highlighting common triggers such as abrupt medication stoppage and prolonged ED stays.
- The findings suggest that using trigger tools systematically can enhance ADR identification in real-time, making the detection process more structured and efficient compared to traditional methods.
