Condition: Transitional Care · Sponsor: Dr. Muhammad Abdul Hadi
When patients leave the emergency department, mistakes with their medications are common and can lead to complications or hospital readmissions. Pharmacists are trained to help prevent these problems, but pharmacist-led transition of care services are not routinely provided in emergency departments. This study is a small pilot randomized controlled trial designed to see whether a pharmacist-led transition of care program can be carried out successfully in the emergency department at Al-Wakra Hospital. The study will help determine if a larger trial is feasible in the future. Patients who are being discharged home from the emergency department and meet the study criteria will be invited to participate. Those who agree will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: Usual care, or Usual care plus the pharmacist-led transition of care program The pharmacist-led program includes reviewing the discharge prescription, checking and updating the medication list, providing medication education, arranging follow-up with a pharmacist-run clinic, communicating with outpatient pharmacists, and following up with the patient after discharge. The pilot trial will help determine how many patients are eligible, how many agree to participate, how well the intervention can be delivered in the emergency department, and whether patients and staff find it acceptable. The results will be used to plan a larger study that will test whether this program can reduce healthcare use after discharge.
