ABSTRACT

Introducción: La persistencia de la morbimortalidad relacionada con la farmacoterapia del paciente ingresado hace necesario identificar evidencia científica sobre la implantación y evaluación del seguimiento farmacoterapéutico (SFT) a nivel hospitalario. Objetivo Realizar una revisión sistemática de la literatura para localizar, seleccionar y analizar estudios sobre la implantación y evaluación del SFT en pacientes hospitalizados. Material y métodos Se realizó una búsqueda de artículos relacionados con la farmacia clínica (FC) y el SFT publicados entre 1990 y 2006, mediante una estrategia de búsqueda restringida combinando todos los descriptores. Las bases de datos consultadas fueron Medline, Embase-Drug & Pharmacology y Cochrane Library. Se seleccionaron artículos originales y revisiones que describían un programa de SFT y de FC, que contaban con la participación del farmacéutico, que se hubieran efectuado en pacientes hospitalizados y que estuvieran disponibles en inglés o español. Resultados Se localizaron 66 publicaciones, incluyendo 49 (74,2%) y excluyendo 17 (25,8%). Se seleccionaron 15 (22,7%) sobre la integración entre la FC y el SFT en el ámbito hospitalario, 18 (27,3%) respecto a la implantación del SFT y 16 (24,2%) relacionadas con la evaluación de programas de SFT. Conclusiones En los estudios descritos, los farmacéuticos han logrado incorporar el SFT a las actividades asistenciales de los servicios de farmacia. Aunar esfuerzos para unificar los criterios de la FC y el SFT debe ser un plan para un futuro común en esta profesión. Del SFT, los pacientes atendidos deben obtener resultados en salud concretos y las instituciones hospitalarias deben reconocer sus efectos beneficiosos respecto a unos costes razonables (AU)

ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION: The persistent morbidity and mortality related to pharmaceutical treatment for hospitalised patients mean that it is necessary to identify scientific criteria for implementing and evaluating Pharmaceutical Care (phC) on the hospital setting. OBJECTIVE: The purpose of the study is to perform a systematic literature review in order to locate, select and analyse studies on implementing and evaluating phC in hospitalised patients. MATERIAL AND METHODS: We searched for articles having to do with clinical pharmacy (CP) and phC published between 1990 and 2006, using a restricted search technique combining all descriptors. The databases we searched were Medline, Embase-Drug & Pharmacology and Cochrane Library. We selected original articles and reviews in English or Spanish describing a phC and clinical pharmacy programme having a participating pharmacist and used in hospitalised patients. RESULTS: We located 66 publications, of which 49 (74.2%) were included and 17 (25.8%) were excluded. We selected 15 (22.7%) on integrating CP and phC in the hospital environment, 18 (27.3%) on implementing phC and 16 (24.2%) relating to evaluating phC programmes. CONCLUSIONS: In the listed studies, pharmacists have managed to incorporate phC programmes in pharmacy divisions' treatment activities. Joining efforts in order to unify CP and phC criteria should be a plan for a common future in this profession. Patients under care should obtain concrete health benefits from phC use, and hospitals should recognise that they create beneficial effects at a reasonable cost.

ABSTRACT

En estas páginas se examina la situación actual del seguimiento farmacoterapéutico (SFT) en la atención hospitalaria, desde la farmacia clínica y el SFT como práctica asistencial hasta la evidencia hallada sobre la implantación de éste en los servicios hospitalarios. La mayoría de los pacientes ingresados sufren problemas de saluda tribuibles a la farmacoterapia administrada, y el tipo de problemas que presentan varía de forma notable entre grupos de pacientes de distintas unidades de hospitalización. Conocer estas diferencias es clínicamente valioso, porque permite dirigir esfuerzos para su prevención según el servicio donde esté ingresado cada paciente. Históricamente, la farmacia clínica ha definido y desarrollado procesos para ofrecer la mejor calidad asistencial en relación con la farmacoterapia. Sin embargo, sin la perspectiva integradora del SFT puede quedar limitada sólo a los procesos. Precisamente es la visión del paciente como eje de actuación y la integración de conocimientos y habilidades que proporciona el SFT lo que crea un sistema global de atención sin fisuras. Para brindar esta atención, el SFT aplica métodos que desarrollan una secuencia racional que evalúa y monitoriza la farmacoterapia cumpliendo sus objetivos terapéuticos. Últimamente los programas de SFT han experimentado un gran auge, pero deben demostrar su eficiencia para que éste pueda ser considerado un método sanitario viable. El reto es avanzar en la implantación del SFT, y aplicar metodologías idóneas, que cumplan con las condiciones éticas pertinentes, para evaluar su efectividad y su eficiencia. Los pacientes que reciben SFT deben obtener de éste resultados en salud concretos, y las instituciones hospitalarias deben reconocer sus efectos beneficiosos a partir de unos costes razonables (AU)


This paper presents the current situation of pharmaceutical care in progressive patient care within the clinical pharmacy, from the pharmaceutical care practice to the evidence found on this implementation in hospital services.The most of the patients have health problems due to administered drugs and these types of problems vary notably among patient’s group from different hospitalization units. The knowledge of these differences is clinically valuable, because it allows to focus in their prevention according to the hospital units in which the patient is located. Historically, clinical pharmacy has defined and developed processes to provide the best welfare quality related to the drug-therapy. Nevertheless, without the pharmaceutical care integrated perspective it can remain limited just to the processes. Precisely, the patient's vision as the centre of the action and the integration of knowledge and skills provided by pharmaceutical care create a complete global care system. In order to offer this comprehensive health care, the pharmaceutical care applies methods that develop a rational sequence to evaluate the drug-therapy and achieve therapeutic goals. Pharmaceutical care programs have reached its peak and development recently, but they must demonstrate its efficiency to be considered an affordable health technology. The challenge is to advance in pharmaceutical care implementation and to apply suitable methodologies within ethical pertinent conditions to evaluate effectiveness and efficiency. Pharmaceutical care should obtain specific results in health for patients attended and hospitals must recognize the beneficial effects with regard to few reasonable costs (AU)

ABSTRACT

El modelo asistencial tradicional está centrado en la deducción racional de la mejor opción que el profesional obtiene a partir de un análisis sobre aquella información, que él considera relevante según su criterio. Sin embargo, toda práctica asistencial correcta ha de basarse en sus protagonistas: los pacientes. Conocer y entender sus emociones, sus sentimientos, sus valores, sus expectativas y sus prioridades de vida, es el paso previo e imprescindible para escoger, no sólo la mejor opción, sino la más ligada a su estilo de vida y necesidades. El seguimiento farmacoterapéutico es una práctica asistencial centrada en el paciente, quien, si quiere, puede participar activamente en la toma de decisiones y ser capaz de responsabilizarse de su farmacoterapia, actuando como un agente más del sistema sanitario. En el seguimiento farmacoterapéutico el farmacéutico acredita las necesidades del paciente con la medicación; por tanto, se recomienda el modelo de relación de decisión compartida, que ha demostrado mejores resultados en términos clínicos y humanísticos (AU)


The traditional care model is centered around the rational deduction of the best option, which the professional obtains from the analysis of the information that he considers to be relevant, according to his criteria. Nevertheless, every correct health care practice has to be based on its real focal point: the patients. Knowing and understanding their emotions, their feelings, their values, their expectations and their life priorities is the initial and indispensable step to choosing, not only the best option, but the option most suitable to his way of life and needs. Pharmaceutical care is a health care practice that is centered around the patient in which, if he wants, he can take an active part in decision making and assume responsibility for his drug therapy, acting like another agent of the health system. In pharmaceutical care, the pharmacist establishes the needs of the patient with the medication. Therefore, a shared decision-making model is recommended, as it has been shown to achieve better results in terms of both clinical and humanistic outcomes (AU)

ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION: Patients admitted to surgery departments receive multiple drugs before, during and after surgical procedures. Anti-infectious therapy, anesthetics, anti-embolic agents, and analgesics stand out amongst others. Our objective was to implement pharmacotherapeutic follow-up as a means to detect, prevent, and solve medication-related problems (MRPs) in inpatients, and to establish consensus strategies to solve avoidable MRPs. MATERIAL AND METHODS: An observational prospective study of 22 patients hospitalized in a Surgery Department, Hospital Infanta Margarita, Cabra (Córdoba) was conducted. Dader methodology was adapted for drug therapy follow-up in the hospital setting. RESULTS: In all, 108 MRPs were detected; 22.04% were associated with medication needs (MRP1:13.6% and MRP2: 8.5%), 40.68% with ineffectiveness (MRP3: 22.0% and MRP4: 18.6%), and 37.28% with lack of safety (MRP5: 10.2% and MRP6: 27.1%). Out of 108 MRPs found, 64 (59.3%) were avoidable; 97 pharmaceutical interventions were carried out (89.8% of cases), acting in 63 (58%) MRPs detected in cooperation with physicians, while 46 MRPs were solved (42%). We found 1 MRP in each 2.6 patients -- admission days, and 1 MRP per 4.5 patients -- admission days occurred after pharmaceutical intervention during the study period. CONCLUSIONS: The use of pharmacotherapeutic follow-up in patients admitted to this department has improved the quality of health care.
