Research Questions (Qualitative)/Hypothesis (Quantitative)

 

Hypothesis: Medication reconciliation is a multi-professional process for the prevention of medication discrepancies. No research questions/hypothesis Null Null
Purposes/Aim of Study To evaluate the available electronic medication reconciliation (eMedRec) tools and their effect on unintended discrepancies that occur in hospital institutions 1.      Identify system-related medication errors or workflow blocks that were the target of eMM system updates

2.       Describe and classify the system enhancements made to target these risks

To map the extent, range, and nature of research on the effectiveness, level of use, and perceptions about electronic medication administration records (eMARs) in long-term care facilities (LTCFs) Summarize lessons learned from primary care professionals involved in a pioneering pilot project in Switzerland for the system wide implementation of shared electronic medication plans.
Design (Type of Quantitative, or Type of Qualitative)

 

Meta-analysis Retrospective study Scoping review of quantitative and qualitative literature. Formative action research study.
Setting/Sample

 

Meta-analysis, 13 articles included Systematic analysis Literature review Longitudinal study
Methods: Intervention/Instruments

 

Methodological quality was assessed using the nine standard criteria of Cochrane Effective Practice and Organization of Care Review Group (EPOC) 147 individual changes, were made to the eMM system over the 4-year period Systematically searched MEDLINE, CINAHL, Scopus, ProQuest, and the Cochrane Library. Group interviews
Analysis

 

Relative risk and significance difference Descriptive analysis (use of percentages) Level of significance analysis Descriptive analysis
Key Findings

 

Electronic Medical Reconciliation reduces the incidence of medication with unintended discrepancies and improves medication safety. Electronic Medication Management (eMM) reduces medication errors and optimize workflows Evidence linking electronic Medication Administration Records (eMAR) in reducing errors is weak. Participants considered medication plan management, digitalized or not, a core element of good clinical practice
Recommendations

 

Hospitals adopt electronic medication to reduce ADEs Hospital organizations can adopt eMM to enhance patient safety and operational efficiency More research need to be conducted to determine the effectiveness of electronic medication in reducing ADEs Digitalization is a key element of transforming hospital records
Explanation of How the Article Supports EBP/Capstone Project

 

It identifies the best approach that can reduce ADES between educational programs and electronic medication. Shows that electronic Medication Management is the best bet for reducing ADEs The article informs the need for conducting more robust research on the efficacy of electronic medication in reducing ADEs. More research should be done to assess the efficacy of electronic records.

Research Questions (Qualitative)/Hypothesis (Quantitative)

 

What are intensive care nurses’ experiences with the new electronic medication administration record?

 

No research question and hypothesis Null Can a consumer-targeted, pharmacist-led educational intervention reduce prescriptions for inappropriate medication among community-dwelling older adults?
Purposes/Aim of Study To explore the experiences of Registered Nurses who administered medications to patients using the electronic medication administration record. To assess the impact of various strategies to improve ADR reporting published in the last decade and compare this with the strategies identified in a previous systematic review To explore and compare patient and clinician attitudes towards an integrated e-prescribing and dispensing system o compare the effectiveness of a consumer-targeted, pharmacist-led educational intervention vs usual care on discontinuation of inappropriate medication among community-dwelling older adults.
Design (Type of Quantitative, or Type of Qualitative)

 

Qualitative descriptive exploratory approach Systematic review A cross-sectional survey A cluster randomized clinical trial
Setting/Sample

 

Five participants 10,021 articles selected, 13 articles included Australian metropolitan teaching hospital Quebec, Canada
Methods: Intervention/Instruments

 

Focus group, observation MEDLINE and EMBASE databases  Literature Evaluation Table Survey andomization occurred at the pharmacy level, with 34 pharmacies randomized to the intervention group (248 patients) and 35 to the control group (241 patients)
Analysis

 

Thematic analysis Descriptive analysis Descriptive analysis- percentages Descriptive and inferential statistics
Key Findings

 

eMAR reduced time nurse spent with patients Electronic method was found to be a better approach when reporting adverse drug reactions compared to educational method The majority of patients and clinicians reported a positive impact of e-prescribing on safety and efficiency A pharmacist-led educational intervention compared with usual care resulted in greater discontinuation of prescriptions for inappropriate medication after 6 months
Recommendations

 

More research needed on the effects of using eMAR to patients and healthcare providers. More research needed to find the robustness of each method Hospitals should implement e-prescribing More research needed to establish the effectiveness of educational programs in reducing ADEs
Explanation of How the Article Supports EBP/Capstone

 

Electronic medication has the potential to increase patient safety The article directly compares the effectiveness of educational programs and electronic records which are included in the PICOT question. The study adds to the evidence that electronic medication is the best approach to reduce ADEs The study contributes to the topic because educational program for nurses was found to be effective in dealing with ADEs.
