Brief Summary

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

The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether an intervention called Pediatric Medication Therapy Management (pMTM) improves the identification and management of medication-related problems among children with medical complexity and polypharmacy.

Detailed Description

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

Patients and their parents who meet the study eligibility requirements will be invited to participate in the study. After being informed about the study and potential risks, all patients and their parents giving written informed consent (and assent, when appropriate) will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to usual care or to the Pediatric Medication Therapy Management (pMTM) intervention.
