Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

To evaluate the impact of clinical pharmacist-led appropriate acid suppression therapy stewardship program in hospitalized older patients.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This prospective, nonrandomized controlled study was conducted in older patients who ordered proton pump inhibitor (PPI) at admission in an internal medicine service of tertiary training and research hospital. In the intervention group, clinical pharmacist-led services (including medication reconciliation and medication review) were conducted during hospitalization and at discharge by using the guidelines and potentially inappropriate medications (PIM) criteria \[American Geriatric Society-AGS Beers Criteria©, 2019\]. Medication Appropriateness Index (MAI), inappropriate PPI cost, and hospitalization for gastrointestinal bleeding within 1 year after discharge were calculated in both groups
