Cross-sectional study assessing health outcome priorities of older adults with multimorbidity at a primary care setting in Singapore.

Objectives: Managing older adults with multimorbidity may be challenging due to the conflicting benefits and harms of multiple treatments. Thus, it is important to identify patients' health outcome priorities to align treatment goals with their health preferences. This study aimed to use the Outcome Prioritisation Tool (OPT) to describe the health outcome priorities of older adults with multimorbidity and determine the factors associated with these priorities.

Acute amiodarone syndrome after a single intravenous amiodarone bolus.

Acute amiodarone toxicity after a single dose of intravenous amiodarone is very rarely seen. We report the case of a 64-year-old Chinese man who presented with atrial fibrillation and fluid overload due to congestive cardiac failure. He was treated with a single bolus dose of intravenous amiodarone, after which he developed elevated serum transaminases, coagulopathy, thrombocytopenia and acute renal failure.
