Effects of a refined evidence-based toolkit and mentored implementation on medication reconciliation at 18 hospitals: results of the MARQUIS2 study

Abstract: BackgroundThe first Multicenter Medication Reconciliation Quality Improvement (QI) Study (MARQUIS1) demonstrated that mentored implementation of a medication reconciliation best practices toolkit decreased total unintentional medication discrepancies in five hospitals, but results varied by site. The objective of this study was to determine the effects of a refined toolkit on a larger group of hospitals.MethodsWe conducted a pragmatic quality improvement study (MARQUIS2) at 18 North American hospitals or hospi… Show more

“…In this issue of BMJ Quality & Safety, Schnipper et al report the effects of a refined evidence-based toolkit and mentored implementation of a complex medication reconciliation intervention, 'MARQUIS2', at 18 North American hospitals. 1 This pragmatic quality improvement study used interrupted time series analysis to quantify the effects of implementation on medication discrepancy rates relative to baseline trends. The MARQUIS2 toolkit was developed by refining the earlier MARQUIS1 toolkit, shown to be associated with a reduction in medication discrepancies but with inconsistent improvement among the five study sites.…”

“…Patient ergonomics, a field exploring the science and engineering of patient work, might therefore provide insights into opportunities to modify and nurture patient activation and opportunities for patient involvement in medication reconciliation. 18 The MARQUIS2 patient-level interventions, such as health coaching and patient counselling, 1 were all delivered during the patient's acute hospital stay. The timing of intervention delivery warrants consideration, because a qualitative study of the hospital discharge process suggests that patients are suboptimally involved in discharge preparation and healthcare providers attempt to engage them at times when they are not receptive to this involvement, for example, on the day of discharge when patients may be pre-occupied with making preparations for returning home.…”
