Drug-Drug Interactions in the Hospital


Listen Later

Focusing on Drug-Drug Interactions (DDIs) in the Hospital and their impact on patient safety. The research encompasses multiple studies, including an evaluation of drug interaction screening programs to assess their effectiveness and suitability in a clinical setting, identifying Pharmavista as a program with high sensitivity. Furthermore, the text examines the prevalence of potential DDIs (pDDIs) during hospital admission, stay, and discharge, noting that while the quantity of drugs increases, the rate of major/moderate pDDIs per drug pair decreases, suggesting some clinical management. Finally, a case-control study explores risk factors for gastrointestinal bleeding, highlighting the elevated risk associated with high International Normalized Ratio (INR) values and the co-prescription of Nonsteroidal Anti-inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs) with glucocorticoids.
