MedWatch: The FDA Safety Information and Adverse Event Reporting Program

As noted earlier, there are mandatory and voluntary error reporting requirements. Executive leaders need to be aware of both types and be a part of the decisional team tasked with determining participation in voluntary errors. Ethics directs healthcare leaders to participate in all activities designed to improve patient safety. Policies need to be developed as well as staff training. It is common for all error reporting forms to be routed to leadership and risk management.

The CANDOR Toolkit Assignment

The CANDOR Toolkit Assignment

The Health and Human Services (HHS) Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality have developed CANDOR:

Communication and Optimal Resolution (CANDOR)

Communication and Optimal Resolution (CANDOR) is a process that health care institutions and practitioners can use to respond in a timely, thorough, and just way when unexpected events cause patient harm. This AHRQ toolkit, based on the CANDOR process, is intended to assist hospitals in implementing communication and optimal resolution programs.A traditional approach when unexpected harm occurs often follows a “deny-and-defend” strategy, providing limited information to patients and families, and avoiding admission of fault. In short, the CANDOR process is a more patient-centered approach that emphasizes early disclosure of adverse events and a more proactive method to achieving an amicable and fair resolution for the patient/family and involved health care providers.

Scenario:

A 60-year-old male presents to your clinic. He reports urinary frequency and incontinence since having his chemo and radiation therapy 3 years ago secondary to prostate cancer. Even though the symptoms are bothersome, he is more concerned about his low back and hip pain which began approximately one month ago which he initially attributed to lifting heavy boxes. The pain is now constant and disrupts his sleep. Labs reveal a normal urinalysis and CBC, a PSA of 7.2. A DRE reveals an enlarged, nodular prostate. The x-rays of the LS spine are positive for mild degenerative changes and what appears to be a cystic mass near the spine.

Case Study Pulmonary Paper

Pulmonary Function:
D.R. is a 27-year-old man, who presents to the nurse practitioner at the Family Care Clinic complaining of increasing SOB, wheezing, fatigue, cough, stuffy nose, watery eyes, and postnasal drainage—all of which began four days ago. Three days ago, he began monitoring his peak flow rates several times a day. His peak flow rates have ranged from 65-70% of his regular baseline with nighttime symptoms for 3 nights on the last week and often have been at the lower limit of that range in the morning. Three days ago, he also began to self-treat with frequent albuterol nebulizer therapy. He reports that usually his albuterol inhaler provides him with relief from his asthma symptoms, but this is no longer enough treatment for this asthmatic episode.

Case Study Questions

  1. According to the case study information, how would you classify the severity of D.R. asthma attack?
  2. Name the most common triggers for asthma in any given patients and specify in your answer which ones you consider applied to D.R. on the case study.
  3. Based on your knowledge and your research, please explain the factors that might be the etiology of D.R. being an asthmatic patient.

Jack is a 54-year-old patient who has difficulty coming in for primary care visits. He sees
cardiology, pulmonary clinic, and endocrine clinic for his comorbid conditions of diabetes
mellitus, postcoronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) 2 years ago, and mild chronic obstructive
pulmonary disease issues from a 30-pack year history of smoking. His last visit with you was
over a year ago. Today, your registered nurse brings you a telephone triage call requesting a refill
of his Crestor prescription, which was ordered by cardiology soon after his CABG. Per the
electronic links to the cardiology service within your facility, the medication was due to be
renewed about 2 months ago. His last lipid labs were a year ago and his last complete metabolic
panel (CMP) was done at the same time. He was recently at the pulmonary clinic and his last
recorded HgA1C was 9.0 from a visit to endocrine 4 months ago. Cardiovascular Assignment Paper
Review of records include a prescription for his hypertension (Lisinopril 20 mg daily),
metformin 1,000 mg twice a day for his diabetes, and no known medications for his pulmonary
issues. The Crestor prescription appears to have multiple dosing levels over the past few refills.
His last vital signs were blood pressure (BP) 170/110 mm Hg, pulse 88, and respirations
22. His body mass index is 30 and he indicates a pain level of four out of five. His pulse
oximetry was 92% on room air.
