Facilitators, Barriers, and Potential Impacts of Implementation of e-Pharmacy in India and its Potential Impact on Cost, Quality, and Access to Medicines: Scoping Review

Facilitators, Barriers, and Potential Impacts of Implementation of e-Pharmacy in India and its Potential Impact on Cost, Quality, and Access to Medicines: Scoping Review

The present scoping review was undertaken to (1) understand the facilitators and barriers to the use of e-pharmacy in India and (2) estimate the potential for e-pharmacy in India for improving access to medication, improving the quality of services and medicines, and decreasing costs of medications. The review was carried out in accordance with the PRISMA-Sc R (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews) guidelines [13].

Perception of Medication Safety–Related Behaviors Among Different Age Groups: Web-Based Cross-Sectional Study

Perception of Medication Safety–Related Behaviors Among Different Age Groups: Web-Based Cross-Sectional Study

For example, 1 study targeted behaviors associated with an office visit for patient engagement, including writing out a list of medications or bringing medications to visit [14]. In our survey, we defined the “importance” of a behavior as the extent to which all patients and families should adopt it for medication safety. “Reasonableness” was judged based on the assumption that following a treatment regimen makes sense if it leads to better health outcomes [15].

Effectiveness of eHealth Interventions in Improving Medication Adherence Among Patients With Cardiovascular Disease: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Usual care: Defined as the standard treatment and nursing provided by health care professionals, typically including the prescription of cardiovascular medications and lifestyle advice. This does not include the information reminders offered by e Health technologies. All initial search results were independently reviewed by 2 investigators.

Patterns of Prescription Medication Use Before Diagnosis of Early Age-Onset Colorectal Cancer: Population-Based Descriptive Study

Patterns of Prescription Medication Use Before Diagnosis of Early Age-Onset Colorectal Cancer: Population-Based Descriptive Study

We then compared patterns of prescription medications among EAO-CRC cases and controls, reporting counts, proportions, and odds ratios (ORs) and corresponding 95% CI, where relevant. We also compared patterns of prescription medications among EAO-CRC and AAO-CRC cases, reporting counts, proportions, ORs and corresponding 95% CIs, where relevant. We completed all these analyses using SAS statistical software (version 9.4; SAS Institute).

Using a Semiautomated Procedure (CleanADHdata.R Script) to Clean Electronic Adherence Monitoring Data: Tutorial

Using a Semiautomated Procedure (CleanADHdata.R Script) to Clean Electronic Adherence Monitoring Data: Tutorial

Patient adherence to medication may be suboptimal, as it is estimated that only 50% to 70% of patients take their medications regularly as prescribed [1]. Medication nonadherence leads to poor clinical outcomes [1-3], additional hospitalizations [4], and increased health care costs [1]. Medication adherence is defined as the extent to which a patient takes the medication as prescribed by the provider, ideally based on a shared decision-making process.

User Experience of Persons Using Ingestible Sensor–Enabled Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis to Prevent HIV Infection: Cross-Sectional Survey Study

Providers continue to depend principally on self-reported adherence, which is subject to recall bias [11-13] and patient’s efforts to avoid potential negative interactions with their physicians when disclosing nonadherence [14,15], or pharmacy refills, which indicate what a patient has on hand but provide no information on if and when medications are taken [16].
