This study aims to further explore the current role of hospitalization in prescribing error exposure and medication-related communication as patients are transferred from and back to ambulatory care.
To account for exposure measurement error and thus decrease any downward bias in the effect estimates, models were weighted by the inverse of measurement error (exposure) variance of the five laboratory replicates per sample.
While the total extent of potentially inadequate prescribing is shown to remain constant between admission and discharge, our analyses convey marked alterations in the pattern of patient-level error exposure, thereby expanding the evidence published so far.
Overall, the probability of error exposure following hospitalization rises with an increasing number of prescribed drugs per patient, while individuals treated on surgical wards are four times more likely to be discharged with a prescribing-related safety hazard than their counterparts from medical departments (OR: 4.069 [95% CI: 1.126-14.703]; p = 0.032).
Depending on the scale of measure, the following tests were used for longitudinal comparisons of patient characteristics and prescribing error exposure at admission versus discharge: McNemar's test for dichotomous variables, Marginal Homogeneity test for multinomial criteria and Wilcoxon matched-pair signed-rank test for metric parameters.
With a view to determining to what extent current hospital practice lives up to this potential, the present study explores the role of hospitalization in prescribing error exposure and medication-related communication as patients transition from and back to ambulatory care.

In this study we examine the influence of time-activity patterns and geocoding error on exposure misclassification in a study of exposure to pollution from highways.
The naive analysis ignores error in exposure measurements, by pretending the observed exposures (PFOA, PFOS, and PFHxS) are precisely measured.
Such measurement error in exposure could have unpredictable impacts on our estimate of the effect of air pollutant exposures on birth weight.
The stitch error between exposure steps in each resist is related to the resist sensitivity.
Past-year receipt of screening was used in order to minimize measurement error and exposure misclassification.
