A study of medication-related problems in stroke patients: A need for pharmaceutical care.
Journal of Research in Pharmacy Practice 2016 July
OBJECTIVE: The study was aimed to assess the incidence and characteristics of drug-related problems (DRPs).
METHODS: A prospective, observational study was conducted among 133 patients with stroke disease who were aged 18 years or older and admitted to the general medicine ward. During the 6 months study period, the incidence of DRPs was identified using the Pharmaceutical Care Network Europe Foundation classification system, version 6.2.
FINDINGS: A total of 133 patients were screened for DRPs. Among them, 120 patients have at least one DRP. A total of 254 DRPs were identified (on average, 2.015 DRPs per each patient case).
CONCLUSION: Increasing the evidence of the incidence of medication-related problems in tertiary care hospitals indicates the need for the establishment of a clinical pharmacist in hospital settings.
