“…The results showed that students did not receive adequate education or opportunities to engage in MR during clinical practice; thus, it is necessary to promote the integration of academic and practical work in this area. 20 Standardizing interprofessional MR processes and enhancing nurses' involvement will help to streamline this task and improve patient safety. Ruggiero et al developed an innovative time-out method for MR at discharge to ensure safe transition of care and improve patient outcomes.…”

Medication reconciliation (MR) is the process of comparing a patient’s medication orders to all of the medications that the patient has been taking in order to identify and resolve medication discrepancies. It is an effective means of risk management to avoid medication errors (eg, omissions, duplication, dosage errors, or drug interactions). Some guidelines explicitly state that MR is a pharmacist-led transition of care; however, there is a shortage of qualified pharmacists to meet the increasing clinical needs, and clinical nurses’ roles have not been clearly described. This paper aimed to enable nurses to gain confidence in contributing to MR at discharge and to make the industry aware of the potential risks if nurses do not actively intervene in this area. A narrative approach was used to introduce experiences in identifying discrepancies and medication errors through MR at discharge in a geriatric ward of an academic medical center hospital in China. The nurses’ main roles in MR involve chasing, checking, and education. Clinical nurses, an untapped hospital resource, can actively engage in MR at discharge if they receive effective training and motivation. Multidisciplinary collaboration at discharge allowed many discrepancies to be reconciled before harming older patients. It is worth conducting further research in MR when discharging older adults, such as the cost-effectiveness of nurses’ efforts, the value of electronic tools and the impact of MR-targeted education and training for nursing students and nursing staff.

“…Nos estudos que abordam a simulação, a quantidade de cenários para a simulação variou de 2 a 4, o tempo médio de simulação foi de 15 minutos e o feedback de 10 minutos (Hayes et al, 2015;Sanko e McKay, 2017;Nascimento e Magro, 2018;Marvanova e Henkel, 2018;Krivanek et al, 2019). Quanto maior o número de cenários maior a pluralidade de aprendizados.…”

A falta de segurança do paciente no uso de medicamentos constitui um problema de saúde mundial aumentando a preocupação em torno de políticas que visam a melhoria da qualidade e segurança assistencial. O objetivo deste trabalho é conhecer as metodologias utilizadas para o ensino na graduação em saúde sobre a segurança no uso dos medicamentos. A metodologia utilizada foi uma revisão integrativa de artigos publicados entre janeiro/2014 e junho/2019 que apresentam metodologias de ensino para a graduação em saúde sobre a segurança no uso de medicamentos. Foram selecionados 35 artigos. Os temas sobre administração de medicamentos (n=11) e cálculo de dose de medicamentos (n=6) foram os mais abordados, especificamente para os graduandos de enfermagem. O tema “prescrição de medicamentos” (n=4) foi abordada pelos acadêmicos de medicina. A segurança da medicação foi abordada em quatro estudos. As principais metodologias identificadas foram: simulação, aprendizagem baseada em problemas e multimídias. Conclui-se que a metodologia a ser aplicada no ensino do uso seguro de medicamentos depende do contexto do discente e dos serviços de saúde, bem como dos objetivos de aprendizado. O raciocínio clínico e o pensamento crítico referente ao uso seguro de medicamentos devem ser praticados durante o ensino da graduação dos cursos de saúde.
