RESUMO

Purpose: To evaluate the appropriateness of medication prescribing and to analyze interventions carried out in polymedicated elderly patients in nursing homes (NHs). Methods: Prospective study of potentially inappropriate medication prescribing in polymedicated older adults living in NHs, implemented via a collaborative project between NHs and the geriatric and pharmacy departments of a university hospital. The pharmacist reviewed patients’ active medical prescriptions and prepared an individualized report with proposals aimed at therapeutic optimization that was sent for evaluation to the geriatrician in charge of the NH. The drug-related problems (DRPs) were classified according to the Third Consensus of Granada and the potentially inappropriate prescriptions (PIPs) were identified by explicit criteria (STOPP/START, BEERS, LESS-CHRON), implicit criteria (MAI) and CheckTheMeds® software. It was measured the degree of acceptance of the interventions carried out, and the economic impact was calculated from the direct costs of the discontinued drugs. Results: Of the 210 patients reviewed by the pharmacy department, 105 patients from 10 NHs were analyzed. A total of 510 prescriptions with possible DRPs were identified (38.5% of all prescribed drugs). According to STOPP/START/BEERS or LESS-CHRON criteria, 41.2% were PIPs. The main DRPs identified were: unfavorable risk-benefit ratio, inappropriate dose/regimen, inappropriate treatment duration, probability of adverse events, medication not indicated, and duplicate therapy. Interventions were proposed for 81.5% of the DRPs detected, of which 73.3% were accepted. This resulted in a 23.1% reduction in the number of drugs prescribed per patient and an economic saving of €16,218 per 6-month period. (AU)


Objetivos: Adecuar la farmacoterapia y analizar las intervenciones realizadas en pacientes ancianos institucionalizados en centros sociosanitarios (CSS) con polifarmacia. Métodos: Estudio prospectivo de un programa de adecuación farmacoterapéutica en pacientes ancianos polimedicados de CSS mediante la puesta en marcha de un proyecto de coordinación de geriatría, farmacia hospitalaria y CSS desde el área de atención especializada. El farmacéutico realizó una revisión farmacoterapéutica de las prescripciones activas de los pacientes, elaborándose un informe individualizado con propuestas dirigidas a la optimización terapéutica. Los problemas relacionados con la medicación (PRM) encontrados se clasificaron según el Tercer Consenso de Granada, y las prescripciones potencialmente inapropiadas (PPI) se identificaron mediante criterios explícitos (STOPP/START, BEERS, criterios de deprescripción LESS-CHRON), criterios implícitos (MAI) y el programa informático CheckTheMeds®. Se midió el grado de aceptación de las intervenciones realizadas, y la repercusión económica se calculó a partir de los costes directos de los fármacos desprescritos.Resultados: De los 210 pacientes revisados por el servicio de farmacia se analizaron 105 pacientes evaluados por geriatría pertenecientes a 10 CSS. Se detectaron 510 prescripciones con posibles PRM (38,5% del total de fármacos prescritos). El 41,2% se correspondían a PPI según criterios STOPP/START/BEERS o LESS-CHRON. Los principales PRM identificados fueron: fármacos de beneficio/riesgo desfavorable, dosis o pauta no adecuada, duración no adecuada, mayor probabilidad de efectos adversos, medicamento no indicado y duplicidad. Se intervino en el 81,5% de los PRM detectados, con un grado de aceptación del 73,3% y una reducción del 23,1% en el número de medicamentos prescritos por paciente, con un ahorro económico de 16.218€/6 meses.

This resulted in a 23.1% reduction in the number of drugs prescribed per patient and an economic saving of €16,218 per 6-month period. CONCLUSION: The appropriateness of medication prescribing in polymedicated older adults living in NHs by the pharmacist has made it possible to reduce DRPs and PIPs and to save costs thanks to the high degree of acceptance by geriatricians.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: Deprescribing is considered one of the main strategies available for  preparing an individualized therapeutic plan in patients with multiple pathologies or complex chronic conditions. However, despite the practice has been in place for some years, there is a need for studies that support the achievement of satisfactory health outcomes, as well as tools that help implement deprescribing in routine clinical practice. The  bjective of this project is to analyze the impact of reducing polypharmacy,  through the LESS-CHRON deprescribing tool, on a population  of elderly polymedicated patients with multiple conditions. METHOD: This will be a quasi-experimental, pre-and-post intervention multicenter cohort study. The variables to be analyzed will be  divided into two large groups: those related to pharmacology and those related to health outcomes. They will be collected at baseline, at 3 and at 6-12  months. A first screening phase will be carried out to recruit candidate patients  and obtain information about the identified deprescribing  opportunities. The second phase will constitute the intervention phase, where  the LESS-CHRON tool will be applied and the actual deprescribing of the drugs  will be carried out. DISCUSSION: LESS-CHRON has been proclaimed as a suitable deprescribing tool in clinical practice. Validation of LESS-CHRON will seek to show the results that can be achieved following the deprescribing of drugs,  in addition to demonstrating that the tool can reliably be used by clinicians in  their routine practice. On the other hand, the results of this project may  provide information leading to improving or adapting the tool itself, giving rise  to a second generation of more efficient version.


OBJETIVO: La desprescripción se considera una de las principales estrategias disponibles para el abordaje del plan terapéutico individualizado en  pacientes pluripatológicos o crónicos complejos. Sin embargo, a pesar de ser una práctica ya instaurada desde hace algunos años, se reclama la necesidad de estudios que avalen la obtención de buenos resultados en salud, además de herramientas que ayuden a su desarrollo en la práctica clínica habitual. El objetivo de este proyecto es analizar el impacto en  la disminución de la farmacoterapia mediante la desprescripción de fármacos, aplicando la herramienta LESS-CHRON, en una población de  pacientes de edad avanzada, polimedicada y con múltiples patologías.Método: Estudio cuasiexperimental, pre-post, multicéntrico. Las variables a analizar se dividirán en dos grandes grupos: referidas a la esfera  farmacológica y referidas a resultados en salud. Se recogerán en el momento  basal, a los 3 y a los 6-12 meses. Se realizará una primera fase de screening  para localizar a los pacientes candidatos, que permitirá obtener la información relativa a las oportunidades de desprescripción identificadas. La  segunda constituirá la fase de intervención, en la que se aplicará la  herramienta LESS-CHRON y se llevará a cabo la desprescripción real de los  fármacos.Discusión: LESS­CHRON se ha proclamado como una herramienta adecuada para llevar a cabo la desprescripción de fármacos en la práctica clínica. La validación de la herramienta LESS-CHRON tratará de poner  de manifiesto los resultados que se logran tras efectuar la desprescripción,  además de demostrar su fiabilidad como herramienta, de modo que los clínicos puedan usarla como parte de su actividad asistencial con total  confianza. Por otro lado, los resultados de este proyecto podrán arrojar  información para la mejora o adaptación de la propia herramienta, dando lugar  a una segunda generación o futuras versiones mejoradas y más  eficientes.
