BACKGROUND. Complementary medicines (CMs) for infantile colic are widely available on the South African market, in various pharmacies and retail outlets, without the need for a prescription. Pharmacists therefore have an important role to play in educating patients about safe and appropriate use of CM products. OBJECTIVES. To investigate the perceptions and prescribing patterns of CMs for infantile colic by pharmacists and pharmacist assistants employed in the greater Johannesburg area. METHODS. We used a quantitative approach with a descriptive survey design. A total of 100 pharmacists and pharmacist assistants registered with the South African Pharmacy Council completed a pen-and-paper questionnaire. RESULTS. Many participants reported recommending both conventional and CMs for infantile colic and, overall, positive perceptions of CM were reported. Most participants agreed that they had a responsibility to counsel patients on the use of CM but felt that they needed to expand their own knowledge base. CONCLUSIONS. There appears to be a positive shift towards CM for the treatment of infantile colic; however, improved training is needed to ensure pharmacists and pharmacist assistants are better informed regarding CM products in order to give appropriate advice to patients.

In the South African public healthcare sector, 28% of diabetic patients present to primary healthcare clinics with diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs), often presenting in advanced stages of ulcer severity. In this study, we aimed to categorise factors predisposing individuals to developing a DFU and to identify the potential shortcomings in existing treatment plans in the South African healthcare system. In addition, the use of preventative measures in the management of DFUs was examined as well as the influence of past treatment practices. A total minimum sample size of 50 DFUs was required for this study. Participants who were selected for this study had their past records reviewed in order to determine the likelihood of previous DFU infections, as well as to determine the occurrence of co-morbidities. The treatment protocol implemented was recorded. Twelve-month patient records were used to identify the infection frequency and past treatment protocols. A total of 48.9% of patients reported that they did not make use of any preventative measures. The most frequent concurrent medical conditions were hypertension, dyslipidaemia, and peripheral neuropathy. Polypharmacy was prevalent, with 55% of the population prescribed five or more medications. Potential medication interactions were examined and a total of 210 interactions were documented. An analysis of past and current treatment practices revealed that 52.1% of the treatment protocols did not comply with local treatment guidelines. This study highlights the urgent need for updated DFU treatment protocols in relation to the overall management of DFUs, taking into account existing international guidelines. SIGNIFICANCE: We determined that the South African treatment guidelines and DFU classification system do not align to international standards. Furthermore, the use of preventative measures among DFU patients was poor and polypharmacy was present in the patient cohort. We emphasise the need for all members of a healthcare team, including podiatrists, clinicians, microbiologists and pharmacists, to work together in order to identify at-risk patients, prevent possible DFUs and effectively treat existing DFUs in a manner that does not contribute to antimicrobial resistance and provides the best possible outcome for the patient.

BACKGROUND: Local and international research has identified rural origin as an important reason why healthcare professionals (HCPs) work in rural areas, and in South Africa (SA) considerable effort has gone into recruiting and training rural-origin students. However, there is little information in the SA literature on where graduates supported by these initiatives work, and whether they contribute to the rural workforce long term. OBJECTIVE: To determine the number of years that rural-origin Umthombo Youth Development Foundation (UYDF)-supported graduates of different disciplines worked at rural public healthcare facilities (PHCFs). METHODS: A retrospective descriptive study reviewed work record data of 405 UYDF graduates, to calculate the number of years they worked at a rural PHCF. Data were analysed descriptively and presented in tables with totals and percentages. RESULTS: Ninety percent (363/405) of UYDF-supported graduates returned to work at a rural PHCF. High percentages of social workers (85%), optometrists (80%), speech therapists, nurses (72%) and dental therapists (70%) worked for >5 years at a rural PHCF, while only 13% of audiologists, 14% of doctors, 29% of pharmacists, and 28% of dentists and occupational therapists worked at a rural PHCF for >5 years. Ten percent (42/405) of graduates did not work at a rural PHCF at all. A total of 110/124 (89%) of doctors supported by UYDF had worked at a rural PHCF, with 32% (40/124) working at a rural PHCF for >3 years. Overall, 54% of UYDF-supported graduates (219/405) worked for >3 years at a rural PHCF, and 38.5% (157/405) worked for >5 years at rural PHCFs. The majority of UYDF graduates had contributed towards long-term staffing of rural PHCFs. Lack of professional development opportunities at rural PHCFs as well as the reduced number of funded posts at rural PHCFs reduced the effectiveness of the UYDF initiative. CONCLUSION: The UYDF Scholarship Scheme has shown that investment in rural students through a bonded scholarship can contribute to staffing rural PHCFs, as >90% of graduates worked at rural PHCFs, and for some disciplines >70% of graduates worked for >5 years at a rural PHCF. Allied HCPs worked on average for longer periods at rural PHCFs than doctors.

Resumo A prescrição farmacêutica avança no mundo, com diferentes países regulando a prática. No Brasil, essa regulação ocorreu em 2013, porém são escassas as informações sobre sua inserção no cotidiano do exercício farmacêutico. Este estudo objetivou analisar a prescrição farmacêutica no município de Vitória-ES, Brasil, e os fatores que influenciam na adesão da prática. Trata-se de um estudo qualitativo com 20 farmacêuticos e 10 gestores de farmácias comunitárias públicas e privadas, realizado a partir de entrevistas, com posterior análise de conteúdo temática para apreender percepções e opiniões. Os farmacêuticos desta pesquisa não prescreviam. Farmacêuticos e gestores identificaram facilitadores para a implementação da atividade, com destaque para os fatores: infraestrutura; fácil acesso ao farmacêutico; e boa receptividade à prescrição. Como barreiras, os fatores foram: número insuficiente de recursos humanos; falta de estímulo institucional à prescrição; e fatores individuais. Além da observação da não execução da prescrição farmacêutica, este estudo trouxe uma oportunidade para identificar elementos que podem estar contribuindo para que o exercício dessa atividade não seja realizado nas farmácias comunitárias.

Abstract Pharmacist prescribing advances in the world with different countries regulating this activity. In Brazil, this regulation took place in 2013, but there is little information about its insertion in the routine of pharmacist practice. This study aimed to analyze the pharmacist prescribing in the city of Vitória, Espírito Santo state, Brazil, and the factors that influence adherence to the practice. This is a qualitative study based on interviews with 20 pharmacists and 10 managers of public and private community drugstores with subsequent content analysis to apprehend perceptions and opinions. The pharmacists in this research did not prescribe. Pharmacists and managers identified facilitators for the implementation of the activity, highlighting the following factors: infrastructure; easy access to the pharmacist; and good receptivity to the prescription. As barriers, the factors were insufficient number of human resources; lack of institutional stimulus to prescribing; and individual factors. In addition to the observation of non-execution of pharmacist prescribing, this study provided an opportunity to identify elements that may contribute to the non-existence of this activity in community drugstores. Adapting routines or hiring staff were the main necessary changes. At the same time, actions aimed at qualifying training through permanent education are also necessary.

Abstract There are a limited number of studies examining the effects of the pandemic on the daily lives of Turkish community pharmacists, and no research investigating the impact on the lives of Turkish hospital pharmacists has been found. This study aimed to examine the effects of the pandemic on the personal and professional lives of Turkish community pharmacists and hospital pharmacists. In this qualitative study design, a comprehensive set of interviews was conducted with a total of 13 community pharmacists and 7 hospital pharmacists, employing a semi-structured interview guide. Through thematic content analysis of the interviews, four main themes, 1) long-term impacts, 2) dealing strategies, 3) professional life impacts, 4) personal life impacts, have emerged for both community pharmacists and hospital pharmacists. In addition to the psychological impacts and supply chain issues commonly mentioned in the literature, the study revealed ongoing effects such as the inability to sell available products and economic difficulties. Also, the increased demand for over-the-counter products during the pandemic highlights the need for the government to develop policies to address this issue. found design 1 semistructured semi structured guide themes longterm long term 2 strategies 3 4 literature difficulties Also overthecounter over counter issue

ABSTRACT Objective: To determine the perception and concerns physicians and pharmacists have about generic drugs on three annual drug price lists in Trinidad. Method: Windows® Excel 2007 and Minitab® version 17 examined the price lists and a self-administered questionnaire was used to perform a non-randomized, cross-sectional study with a convenient sampling of physicians and pharmacists after obtaining written consent. Results: Physicians (78.6%) and pharmacists (87.1%) agreed and strongly agreed respectively that there are medical conditions for which brand name drugs are preferred including cardiovascular conditions and diabetes; which were comprised in the five major medication categories on the national drug price lists. Overall, physicians and pharmacists showed a ‘Good’ to ‘Excellent’ perception of generic drugs but had some safety and efficacy concerns. Lack of reporting of adverse drug reactions and quality issues by health professionals was also observed. Conclusion: Education and communication among patients, physicians and pharmacists can improve the perception of generic drugs; hence, increase confidence in prescribing, dispensing and patient management.

Abstract Patient Blood Management (PBM) is a multidimensional approach that seeks to optimize the use of blood and its components in patients. This matter emerged as a response to the need to reduce unnecessary exposure to blood transfusions and their potential risks. In the past, blood transfusion was often overused resulting in complications and high costs. The advent of Patient Blood Management has caused a paradigm shift, highlighting anemia prevention, bleeding control and maximizing the production of blood cells by the organism itself. Patient Blood Management guidelines include the early identification of anemia, strategies to minimize blood loss during surgery, intraoperative blood conservation techniques, preoperative hemoglobin optimization and evidence-based approaches to the rational use of blood transfusions. Aiming to improve clinical outcomes, decrease transfusion-related complications and reduce associated costs, this multidisciplinary approach counts on doctors, nurses, pharmacists and other healthcare professionals. Based on research and clinical evidence, Patient Blood Management continues to evolve thereby promoting safer, more effective patient-centered practices. Its implementation has proven beneficial in various medical contexts thereby contributing to improvements in the quality of care provided to patients. Our goal with this Consensus is to present readers with a broad and diverse view of Patient Blood Management so that they have the building blocks to implement this new technique.

El objetivo de este estudio fue reflexionar sobre el desafío de la formación de la identidad profesional del farmacéutico clínico en un contexto de currículum no integrado y en un ambiente tradicional y especializado. Se desarrolló una investigación cualitativa orientada por las presuposiciones de la perspectiva etnográfica en la educación, utilizándose múltiples métodos de colecta de datos entre abril y julio de 2019. El escenario de la enseñanza experiencial fue una Farmacia Universitaria de la región sur de Brasil. Por medio de una descripción densa y con el uso de la reflexividad teórica e intertextual se presenta una narrativa que utiliza la voz de los participantes como ancla para dar visibilidad al proceso vivido. La ausencia de un estándar para el proceso de cuidado en la profesión farmacéutica, el currículum tradicional y la desarticulación entre teoría y práctica se constituyen en desafíos para que los estudiantes de Farmacia legitimen la práctica profesional farmacéutica centrada en el usuario.

The aim of this study was to reflect on the challenge of forming the professional identity of clinical pharmacists in the context of non-integrated curriculums and a traditional specialized environment. We conducted a qualitative study between April and July 2019 guided by the ethnographic approach to education, employing multiple data collection methods. The experiential learning setting was a university pharmacy in the south of Brazil. By means of a thick description and through the use of theoretical and intertextual reflexivity, we present a narrative using the voice of the participants as an anchor to provided visibility to the experienced process. The absence of a standard for the care process in the pharmacy profession, the traditional curriculum, and the lack of connection between theory and practice are challenges facing pharmacy students in legitimizing patient-centered professional practice.

Abstract To characterize the main pharmaceutical interventions performed by reviewing the pharmacotherapy of hospital patients with COVID-19. This is a study carried out in a hospital center in the northern region of Santa Catarina, in which data were collected on pharmaceutical interventions resulting from the review of the pharmacotherapy of hospital patients with COVID-19, between April 2020 and June 2021. During the study period, a total of 16,675 medical presciptions were validated by pharmacists in theselected hospitalization sectors. These validations resulted in 1,108 pharmaceutical interventions, with the largest number related to drug dose adjustment (25.9%). Among the drugs, the class with the highest number of interventions was antimicrobials, especially Azithromycin with 23.5% of interventions performed, followed by Teicoplanin 23.9% and Meropenem 18.6%. Pharmaceutical interventions due to kidney function were also highlighted, as the disease is not restricted to damage to the respiratory system, but also presents complications in other organs, such as the kidneys. Through the review of pharmacotherapy and the pharmaceutical interventions resulting from this activity, clinical pharmacists played a key role in optimizing pharmacotherapy, in addition to promoting the safe use of medications.

Abstract This descriptive study analyzed the perceptions of Brazilian hospital pharmacists towards their clinical attributions related to “interventions in the prescription” and “monitoring the use of medication” in view of the current Basel Declaration of the International Federation of Pharmacists (Federação Internacional de Farmacêuticos - FIP). Brazilian hospitals of high and medium complexity were identified and a pre-tested questionnaire based on the 65 recommendations of the Basel Statments was sent via e-mail, directed to the pharmacists of the 2,054 hospitals. The results were categorized into: a) they meet the statement, b) they do not meet, or c) they did not respond. Pharmacists from 111 hospitals returned the survey. For the recommendations of the theme “influences on prescribing”, the highest percentage of compliance was related to the effective performance of pharmacists in the Pharmacy and Therapeutics Committee (PTC), which occurred in 54.1% of the hospitals. While for the “monitoring the use of medication” was refered to the existence of an easily accessible system for notifying technical complaints, in 47.7 % of the hospitals. The results emphasize that these activities need to be reviewed and aligned, to offer better quality and more safety to the patient in relation to the use of medication. interventions prescription monitoring medication Federação FIP.
