What do patients with substance use disorders know about their medication? A cross-sectional interview-based study
Patients with SUDs demonstrated suboptimal medication knowledge, particularly regarding ATC group A drugs. Future strategies should prioritize patient education and enhanced physician engagement to improve understanding and adherence, ultimately fostering better therapeutic outcomes
Potentially inappropriate prescriptions of antibiotics in geriatric psychiatry—a retrospective cohort study
Antibiotic PIPs can be considered as a frequent phenomenon in geriatric psychiatry. Especially the use of fluoroquinolones and cephalosporins should be discussed critically due to their extensive side effect profiles. Due to the special characteristics of geriatric psychiatric patients, international guidelines on the use of antibiotics should consider frailty and psychotropic polypharmacy of this patient population more closely
Determinants of severe QTc prolongation in a real-world gerontopsychiatric setting
Introduction QT c prolongation carries the risk of ventricular tachyarrhythmia (Torsades de Pointes) and sudden cardiac death. Psychotropic drugs can affect ventricular repolarization and thus prolong the QT c interval. The present study sought to investigate the risk factors (pharmacological and non-pharmacological) of severe QT c prolongation in gerontopsychiatric patients. Methods Electrocardiograms of patients on a gerontopsychiatric ward wer…
