Optimization of Drug Prescribing in an Elderly Population of Geriatric Consultations (OPTIM)

2. srpna 2018 aktualizováno: Hospices Civils de Lyon

Optimization of Drug Prescribing in an Elderly Population of Geriatric Consultations and Living at Home

Aging is often associated with multiple chronic conditions conducting increased consumption of drugs. Drug therapy is necessary for the treatment of many diseases. However, misuse of drugs, particularly linked to the potentially inappropriate prescribing and polypharmacy, increases the iatrogenic risks and can lead to adverse events such as falls, cognitive decline, increased use to the health system: hospital admissions, emergency room visits, and institutionalization. These problems are common since about 20% of emergency room use in elderly patients due to an adverse event related to drugs. Nearly 28% of adverse events related to drug prescriptions could be avoided.

Interventions to optimize drug therapy showed a reduction in the number of potentially inappropriate medications, but their impact on health, has rarely been evaluated. If an association with death has been established, the link with the loss of functional autonomy, which leads to reduced quality of life and significant cost of care, has not been investigated. The evolution towards functional disabilities, frequent with aging has many causes, among which some could be prevented. The optimization of drug prescriptions could thereby delay or prevent the loss of functional autonomy by reducing the risk of adverse events, such as falls or cognitive decline and improving the management of chronic diseases. Our hypothesis is that an optimization program of the drug prescribing may slow progression to functional dependence. To assess the effect of the optimization program of drug prescribing on the level of functional autonomy, a multicenter Randomized Controlled Trial will be conducted in geriatric and memory consultations.

Expected results The implementation of the "OPTIM" program should enable optimization of drug prescribing in elderly patients and therefore slow or prevent progression to addiction. It should also help to develop and strengthen collaboration and communication between the team of geriatric consultation, the clinician pharmacist and referring physicians in town (private practice). In addition, pharmaceutical notice sent to referring physicians should help raise awareness of the prescription of drugs in these patients.

Zbraně a zásahy

Skupina účastníků / Arm
Intervence / Léčba
Experimentální: Optimization of drug prescribing
The group with optimization program will have: (i) a medical history of the drug prescribing; (ii) analysis and pharmaceutical recommendations and (iii) preparation of a management plan. Notices will be sent only to referring physicians in this experimental group.
The patients included in this group will have the intervention. The optimization of drug prescribing consists to a history of the drugs prescribing leading to pharmaceutical recommendations by the pharmacist-clinician, accepted by the specialist physicians in charge of the patient at the hospital and sent to the referring physicians of patients, who can accept or not the recommendations.
Žádný zásah: No intervention
This group will receive the current management of patients in geriatric or memory consultation, during which the intervention of a clinician pharmacist is not provided. There will be a history of the drugs prescribing leading to pharmaceutical recommendations by the pharmacist-clinician, accepted by the specialist physicians in charge of the patient at the hospital, but the recommendations will not be transmitted to the referring physicians of patients.

The evolution of the level of functional autonomy of the patients assessed using the scale IADL of Lawton
Časové okno: At inclusion

The primary outcome will be calculated using the 4 successive evaluations of IADL scale.

The IADL scale assesses the level of functional autonomy of a patient through the assessment of instrumental activities of daily living: ability to use the telephone, transportation, shopping, managing medications, manage a budget, prepare meals, maintain the house and do the laundry. The rating scale provides a score from 0 to 8. A higher score indicates a higher level of dependency, while a lower score reflects a lower level of dependence. The IADL scale consists of 8 questions.

Časové okno: At inclusion

The primary outcome will be calculated using the 4 successive evaluations of DAD-6 scale.

The scale DAD-6 assesses the patient's activities in his daily life. It includes six questions assessing the degree of autonomy for the following activities: Food, use the telephone or the computer, moving outside, finance and correspondence, medications, leisure and home maintenance. The score ranges from 0 to 18 points, the higher the score, the more the patient is autonomous.
