N = 619, 'Yes' = 46; 'No' = 573 bThe odds ratio was adjusted for number of medications, length of hospital stay, age (years), use of CNS medicines, use of endocrine medicines, use of other medicines, use of antihistamine and anti-allergic and presence of infectious disease In countries with better resources, medication safety programs are well integrated with the health care system [ 7, 9, 10].
Variables in the model for no recognition of ADEs occurring during the hospital stay included age, sex, number of hospital medications, length of stay on an Internal Medicine ward, the presence of cognitive impairment on admission (yes/no), and the Charlson Comorbidity Index score [ 35].
In addition to age and sex, the following variables that were significant in bivariate analysis were tested in the multivariate regression: number of comorbid conditions; number of medications; length of stay; ADL score (1 4); IADL score (1 4); communication; mood; and cognitive problems.
The EDW includes information on surgeries, laboratory tests, in-hospital medications, hospital length-of-stay, in-hospital mortality, and International Classification of Diseases 10th Revision (ICD-10) diagnostic codes.
We explored the effect of the unit on medication management, length of stay and patient experience.
The following variables were also evaluated: patient age (years), gender, smoking status, use of medication, comorbidities, length of hospital stay, and need for ventilatory support.
This may be due to differences in sample characteristics (inpatients versus outpatients, variation in cohort ancestry), the antidepressant treatment received (medication taken, length of time receiving drug), or analysis approach (treatment outcome definitions used).
Secondary end points will be average pain at rest over the second 12-hour post-operative period, maximal pain at rest over the first and second 12-hour periods, amount of rescue medication used, length of inpatient stay and incidence of post-operative adhesive capsulitis.
The covariates were number of medications ordered, length of hospital stay, age, medication class and presence of infectious disease.
Duration of mechanical ventilation was the primary outcome; secondary outcomes were total doses and duration of medications, PICU length of stay, incidence of ventilator-associated pneumonia, and occurrence of withdrawal symptoms.
