简要总结
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the impact of pharmaceutical consultations in older patients having a comprehensive geriatric assessment at geriatric day-clinic. The main question it aims to answer is: What is the impact on patient adherence Participants will benefit from medication history taking, medication review, therapeutic education, shared decision-making and follow-up phone call. Researchers will compare with a control group, benefiting from medication history taking and usual care from the geriatric day-clinic.
详细描述
Research question: What is the impact of a clinical pharmacy activity (including a medication history, a medication review, therapeutic education, a shared decision step and a follow-up call) on medication adherence in elderly patients followed up for geriatric assessment at the geriatric day hospital? Design: Intervention study, randomized, controlled, open-label, with evaluation at 2 months. The study will run from January 1, 2023 to September 1, 2024 (20 months), at the CUSL geriatric day hospital.
Participants: patients admitted to the geriatric day hospital for a geriatric assessment will be eligible for the project. A geriatric assessment comprises 2 consultations at the geriatric day hospital: a "assessment" consultation, where the patient meets the members of the multidisciplinary team, and a "results" consultation, where the geriatrician provides the patient with care recommendations.
The general practitioners, pharmacists and nursing home referral nurse (if applicable) of the participants in the intervention group will be invited to take part in a satisfaction survey.
Intervention: The intervention includes several clinical pharmacy activities
- Medication history (during assessment consultation)
- Medication review and consultation with the geriatrician
- Therapeutic education (during results consultation)
- Shared decision-making (during results consultation)
- One-week follow-up call Control: usual care. Outcomes: primary: comparison at 1.5 months (telephone FUP) after outcome consultation of ASK-20 total Adherence Survey score (measures medication adherence and identifies barriers to adherence).

结局指标
主要结局
presence of barriers to adherence as measured by ASK-20 score (the sum of raw ASK-20 item scores)
时间窗: 6weeks
ASK-20 (questionnaire) consists of 20 clinically actionable items representing multiple factors that affect medication adherence. Each of the 20 items score from 1 to 5. A score of 20 means low barriers to adherence; A score of 100 means maximum barriers to adherence. Comparizon of ASK-20 score from baseline to 6weeks in both arms.
