Several studies have demonstrated that adherence to specific immunization recommendations are low in patients receiving antiretroviral (ARV) therapy; however, limited data exists to describe trends in overall immunization status for this population. The primary objective of this study is to identify patients who have received ARV therapy and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommended immunizations at community pharmacies specializing in Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) patien care. The secondary objectives are to determine if the above-identified patients received immunizations at a different healthcare facility, and to determine trends in patient characteristics including age, gender, insurance coverage, and how often therapy has changed.Methods: A retrospective cohort study is being conducted within four grocery store chain pharmacies in Chicago, IL as advanced HIV patient care services were initiated at the selected study sites in 2013. Patients 18 years and older currently on ARV therapy components recommended by the United States Department of Health and Human Services 2017 HIV guidelines were included. Eligible patients were identified using dispensing reports for National Drug Codes of specified ARVs filled at each study location. Baseline characteristics and the CDC recommended immunization histories were recorded. Recommended immunizations include hepatitis B, influenza, pneumococcal, human papilloma virus, and tetanus, diphtheria and pertussis. ARV dispensing reports and immunization history were collected from January 2013 to October 2017, in order to reflect the conception of HIV patient care services at the study locations. Additional immunization history information were also collected from the Illinois Comprehensive Automated Immunization Registry Exchange (I-CARE). Descriptive statistics will be used to describe study results.Results/Conclusions: Data collection and analysis are in progress. Results and conclusion will be presented at the Great Lakes Pharmacy Residency Conference.

However, dose adjustments of DOACs may be necessary based on certain clinical criteria which may lead to inappropriate prescribing and the potential for increased rates of adverse events. Methods: A single-center, retrospective observational cohort study was conducted to evaluate the adverse event rates of inappropriately dosed dabigatran, rivaroxaban, and apixaban in adult patients with a diagnosis of VTE or NVAF. The primary objective was the composite rate of bleeding and thrombosis between patients who were prescribed an inappropriately dosed DOAC compared to patients who were appropriately dosed. Secondary objectives include rates of thrombosis, rates of bleeding, prescribing services, reasons for inappropriate dosing, and rates of inappropriate dose adjustment for each DOAC.Results: Among the 158 patients included, the rate of inappropriately dosed DOACs was 10.8%. The most common indication for DOAC prescribing was NVAF (55.7%). Rivaroxaban was the most frequently prescribed DOAC (53.8%). Inappropriately dosed DOACs occurred most frequently with apixaban (52.9%).The primary endpoint found no significant difference in composite rates of bleeding and thrombosis in the inappropriately prescribed group (11.8%) compared to the appropriately prescribed group (21.3%) (p=0.19). The overall rate of adverse events was 20%, with minor bleeding being the most commonly reported adverse event.Conclusions: Initial findings show low rates of inappropriately prescribed DOACs. No differences in the composite rate of bleeding or thrombosis were seen in patients who received an inappropriately dosed DOAC for treatment of VTE or stroke prevention in NVAF compared to those who were appropriately dosed.

The use of “triggers” such as abnormal lab results, antidote administration, and ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ to identify adverse event is an effective method to identify and track medication errors. However, there is currently no standardized methodology to detect and report adverse drug events utilizing trigger tools. Errors commonly occur durin medication ordering/prescribing. The computerized provider order entry (CPOE)-based function of medication order voiding is a way for clinicians to remove medication orders from a patient’s active medication list, including those that were placed in error. Therefore, a voided order may serve as a proxy for medication order entry errors. Analysis of prescribing errors identified in voided orders can provide useful insight into the source of these errors as a step towards reducing them. The primary purpose of this study is to determine if voided medication orders can serve as a useful method for detecting prescribing errors. Methods: This is a single-center, retrospective chart review of a random sample of inpatient medication orders that were voided between January 1, 2016 and December 31, 2016 at Northwestern Memorial Hospital. Data will be obtained from Cerner’s PharmNet and will include voided order ID, position of person placing the order and voiding it, date/time order was voided, and new orders placed within 10 minutes of the voided order. Orders will be analyzed to determine the proportion of voided orders that are potentially medication errors. Medication errors will be categorized as one of the following: wrong route, wrong dose, wrong schedule, wrong strength, wrong indication, wrong drug, duplicate order, or not clinically appropriate. The primary endpoint will be to assess the incidence of medication order entry errors among voided medication orders. Identify potential trigger tools which can be used to recognize adverse drug events. Define the CPOE-based function of medication order voiding. Which of the following would NOT serve as a trigger tool that an advers drug event may have occurred? A Medication order abruptly discontinued B: Administration of glucagon C: Potassium level of 6 D: Nausea after chemotherapy session Which of the following statements is true about the CPOE-based function of medication order voiding? A Function of voiding is standardized across all institutions B Orders can be voided before or after medication administration C Discontinuing an order is the same as voiding it ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, PharmD, MBA*; ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, PharmD Candidate; ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇ ▇▇▇▇, PharmD; ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, PharmD, MBA, BCPS; ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, PharmD, MHA University of Kentucky HealthCare,800 ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇,▇▇▇▇,▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇,▇▇,▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇ Purpose: Immunizations are critical in reducing the risks of vaccine- preventable diseases.
