“…Our findings add to research describing high rates (10%–87%) of medication discrepancies during hospital transitions, many of which (11%–59%) were clinically relevant 2,3,9 . Medication discrepancies have been observed in 74% to over 90% of older adults in primary care settings 10–12 and up to 90% of older adults admitted to hospital 13–15 . Our work extends the study of medication discrepancies and reconciliation to virtual care.…”

“…Dentre os tipos de erros na AM encontrados nesta revisão, o principal deles diz respeito à dosagem medicamentosa, presente em 27 estudos (67,5%) (8,(10)(11)(13)(14)(16)(17)(19)(20)(23)(24)(25)(26)(27)(28)(30)(31)(32)34,36,(42)(43)(44)(45)(46)(47)(48)(49) . Corroborando com tal achado, uma pesquisa (50) que teve como um dos objetivos identificar o perfil dos erros cometidos durante o preparo, encontrou que 67,7% dos erros estavam associados a doses preparadas erroneamente.…”

“…Esta realidade também foi encontrada na presente pesquisa, em que a administração da medicação errada foi o segundo erro mais comum entre os estudos analisados e esteve presente em 62,5% (n=25) (8)(9)(10)(11)13,16,(20)(21)(23)(24)(25)(26)(28)(29)(30)(31)(36)(37)(42)(43)(45)(46)(48)(49)53) da amostra, seguido pelo medicamento administrado ao paciente errado (n=21;52,5%) (8)(9)(10)(11)16,18,22,(23)(24)(25)(26)(27)(28)(30)(31)(33)(34)(36)(37)(46)(47) .…”

“…Une hospitalisation pour cause neurologique et une insuffisance rénale sévère ou terminale étaient à l'inverse significativement associés à l'absence de DNI.4.1. Les facteurs de risqueLa polymédication est un des facteurs liés à un risque de DNI le plus fréquemment retrouvé dans la littérature(64,70,71,75,78,81,85,86,(89)(90)(91)(92).Dans notre étude, les patients avec un nombre de traitements supérieur à 5 sur l'OMA était associé à un risque plus important de DNI confirmant que la polymédication est un des facteurs de risque les plus importants et fréquents d'EM. C'est un résultat qui était attendu dans notre étude, un nombre plus important de traitements apporte un plus grand risque de retrouver une DNI.Toutefois, nous avons aussi étudié le nombre de traitements des patients à partir du BM afin d'établir de manière exhaustive le nombre de traitement de chaque patient.…”
