Medication review by an experienced hospital pharmacist within the ED. Rate of admission, rate of readmission, length of stay and admission to an aged care facility at 4 months post presentation, and rate of general practitioner acceptance of pharmacist recommendations. Results: The odds of admission decreased for those receiving the intervention (odds ratio [OR] = 0.68, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.53, 0.87; P = 0.002). There was no evidence that the intervention affected hospital length of stay for admitted patients (0.09 days change, 95% CI -0.08, 0.25; P = 0.31), the rate of re-presentation (0.08% change, 95% CI -0.12, 0.28; P = 0.44) or admission to an aged care facility. The odds of admission to an aged care facility increased with the Identification of Seniors at Risk score. General practitioners adopted 49% of pharmacists' recommendations. Conclusions: The presence of an experienced pharmacist in the ED reduced hospital admissions. Further study is required to determine longer term impacts of General Medical Practitioner acceptance of pharmacists' recommendations.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:24:48 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:38268 Mon 29 Jan 2024 18:50:38 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:44911 Mon 24 Oct 2022 16:17:33 AEDT ]]>
