Improving vaccination of pregnant women against seasonal influenza through use of a Mandatory Field in the obstetric electronic medical record.
Journal of Public Health, 2019Co-Authors: Roberto Orefice, Julie A. QuinlivanAbstract:BACKGROUND: The aim of the present study was to determine whether using a Mandatory data Field in an electronic health record would increase compliance with the recommendation to vaccinate pregnant women against influenza. METHODS: Two cohorts of women who delivered at the Centenary Hospital for Women and Children between 1-31 July 2015 and 1-31 July 2017 were compared for compliance with the national public health recommendation to vaccinate all pregnant women against influenza. The single change between audit periods was programming the electronic health record to include a Mandatory Field preventing clinicians from closing patient files unless they selected an answer to the question asking whether influenza vaccination had been performed. Data were audited and compliance rates were compared. RESULTS: A total of 275 and 299 women delivered in the two audit periods. There were no significant differences in maternal or neonatal characteristics between the two cohorts except for maternal age, which was younger in the second period (33.3 versus 31.5 years; P = 0.001). Vaccination rates doubled between audit periods (35.0% versus 79.8%, P

Annual grasses in crop rotations with grass seed production – a survey with special focus on Vulpia spp. in red fescue production
Acta Agriculturae Scandinavica Section B-soil and Plant Science, 2013Co-Authors: Peter Kryger Jensen, Kristian KristensenAbstract:This paper presents a survey of grass weeds in grass seed crops in Denmark. The survey is based on an analysis of data from a database containing monitoring of grass weeds in the period from 2004 to 2009 on an acreage of approximately 400,000 ha. The survey is based on weed monitoring carried out during a Mandatory Field inspection of grass seed crops. All Fields grown with grasses for seed production are monitored shortly before harvest at a time when the weeds present are a result of a combination of the cropping history of the Field, competition from the crop and the weed control carried out in the Field. The survey showed that Poa annua, Elytrigia repens and Poa trivialis were the three most frequent grass weeds in grass seed crops. Furthermore, Bromus hordeaceus, Bromus sterilis, P. trivialis and Vulpia spp. showed an increasing frequency in the study period. The perennial weed, E. repens, and Dactylis glomerata were the only important grass weeds with a declining frequency during the six years. Vulp...

Factors contributing to the identification and prevention of incorrect drug prescribing errors in outpatient setting
Journal of The Saudi Pharmaceutical Society, 2013Co-Authors: Salma Alkhani, Amani Moharram, Hisham AljadheyAbstract:Abstract Purpose Medication errors in prescribing are common and could lead to high morbidity and mortality. The objective of the current study was to explore factors that help pharmacists identify and thus prevent harm from incorrect drug prescribing errors in an ambulatory care setting. Methods At the King Faisal Specialist Hospital and Research Center, a tertiary care referral hospital in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, medication error reports from the pharmacy are initiated by the pharmacist and reviewed by the quality control department and medication safety officer. This was a retrospective study in the hospital ambulatory care pharmacies including incorrect drug error reports from January 2011 until September 2012. Reports were reviewed by two pharmacists to ensure the accuracy of data classification. Factors contributing to the identification of incorrect drug prescribing errors were identified. Results During the study period, a total of 2073 prescribing errors were included in the hospital Safety Reporting System. Incorrect drug prescribing errors identified by pharmacists comprised 203 reports (10%). Factors contributing to the identification of incorrect drug prescribing errors were: matching the drug with the indication for prescribing included in the prescription (34%), reviewing the patient’s medication history (27%), patient counseling and review of medication history (9%), patient counseling during dispensing (8%), others (15%), and not specified by the reporter (7%). Conclusions Pharmacists reviewing and matching the indication for prescribing the prescribed drug and reviewing patient medication history before dispensing were the major factors (60%) found that allowed pharmacists to detect and thus prevent incorrect drug prescribing errors. Therefore, including the indication in the prescription as a Mandatory Field is important for patient safety.
