Abstract

Background

The practice of dispensing drugs in primary healthcare centers has shifted to community pharmacies in Saudi Arabia. These changes increase demand and mandate improving their services; one such is establishing pharmacy drive-thru services. To explore the effects of drive-thru services on the pharmacy profession, this study aimed to measure community pharmacists' acceptance, perception, and satisfaction regarding drive-thru services.

Methods

This cross-sectional study design was conducted in Saudi Arabia between January 2023 and May 2023-comparing the perception, acceptance, and satisfaction of pharmacists who work in a community pharmacy that provides a drive-thru service versus no drive-thru service. Community pharmacists were invited to complete an online questionnaire consisting of four sections developed from previous studies with some modifications. Descriptive statistical analysis and an independent t-test were utilized to test the difference between the two groups (providing drive-thru service vs. non) in their responses.

Results

This study included 380 community pharmacists, of whom 33 % provided drive-thru services and 67 % did not. Pharmacists' perceptions of drive-thru services differed significantly. Those with drive-thru services perceived lower convenience for delivering drug information and patient counseling, and they were concerned about the potential impact on their health effects (M = 3.15, SD = 1.34) compared to those without (M = 3.58, SD = 1.10), t (3 7 8) = -3.32, p < 0.01). However, they recognized the convenience of serving sick patients, the elderly, disabled individuals, and mothers with children in cars (M = 3.71, SD = 1.17), which was higher than those without (M = 4.04, SD = 1.21), t (3 7 8) = -2.70, p < 0.01). Regarding the current pharmacy layout suitability, pharmacists with drive-thru services found it more suitable (M = 3.13, SD = 1.14) than those without (M = 2.49, SD = 1.14), t (3 7 8) = 5.1, p < 0.01). However, the two groups had no significant difference in overall satisfaction.

Conclusion

Pharmacists working in pharmacies offering drive-thru services recognized certain benefits but also expressed concerns about health effects and decreased convenience for counseling. These findings provide valuable insights for policymakers and pharmacy management, highlighting the nuanced views of pharmacists in adopting drive-thru services.

Abstract

Background

Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death and disability worldwide. It is a general term used to describe a group of disorders that affect the heart or blood vessels. This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence and predictors of polypharmacy in patients with heart failure.

Methods

We conducted a cross-sectional study in a tertiary hospital in Saudi Arabia. Data was extracted from an electronic database between January 2019, and December 2022. The study included all adult patients with heart failure who visited outpatient clinics; individuals with cancer were excluded. The outcome variable in our study was "polypharmacy" which was defined as the use of eight or more medications. Descriptive analysis was performed using frequencies and percentages for categorical variables. In addition, Multivariate logistic regression was used to assess the covariates associated with polypharmacy.

Results

A total of 331 patients with heart failure were included in this study. The prevalence of polypharmacy among our HF population was 39.88 %. Most participants were male (60.73 %), and 60 years or older (68 %). The most frequently used medications were beta-blockers (67.98 %) and diuretics (58.31 %), whereas the least frequently used medications were hydralazine and histamine H2 blockers (5.74, and 3.02 %, respectively). Polypharmacy was likely to be a non-significantly higher in individuals aged between 60 and 69 years (adjusted odds ratio (AOR) = 1.52; 95 % confidence interval (CI) 0.78-2.98) and suffering from hypertension (AOR = 1.48; 95 % CI 0.83-2.64). However, patients with heart failure and diabetes mellitus had a significant six-fold higher of polypharmacy than those without diabetes mellitus (AOR = 6.55; 95 % CI 3.71-11.56).

Conclusion

Patients with heart failure often use multiple medications. Patients with heart failure together with diabetes have a higher risk of polypharmacy. Therefore, healthcare professionals should manage polypharmacy to improve the outcomes in patients with heart failure.

Abstract

INTRODUCTION

Medication Therapy Management (MTM) is identified as a group of services provided to the patient in order to optimize the medication use in order to mitigate adverse drug reactions (ADRs), drug-drug interaction (DDI), and polypharmacy. Elderly populations above 60 years old are at high risk for Medication-related Problems (MRPs) due to several factors. Therefore, MTM programs showed good contributions globally regarding enhancing medication use in the elderly population. Thus, evident information regarding its implementation in Saudi Arabia is lacking in the literature.

OBJECTIVE

Our objective is to assess community pharmacists' knowledge, attitude, and barriers to providing MTM services to the older adult population in Saudi Arabia.

METHODOLOGY

A cross-sectional study has been conducted among community pharmacists across the Kingdom. It was survey-based research that was designed and conducted through (QuestionPro). The survey was distributed for the community pharmacists from Feb-May 2023 via (QuestionPro). Descriptive analysis was performed using SAS OnDemand to analyze the categorical variables and test it with the outcome of interest.

RESULTS

Out of the 528 participants who have viewed our questionnaire, 319 participants have completed the survey in 5 min average time. Most of our participants were male, holding a bachelor's degree, and had an average working load of more than 40 h a week, respectively (84.95%, 92.48%, and 76.18%). In addition, the participants were from different regions of the Kingdom, which enhanced the generalizability of our findings. Moreover, 65.52% have reported a higher level of knowledge, while 34.48% have reported a moderate to low level of knowledge regarding MTM service. Most of those with a higher level of knowledge maintain a positive attitude regarding MTM service, its implementation, and dealing with older adult patients in the community pharmacy. In addition, lacking the time, training, and presence of a private consultation room were the top barriers to provide MTM services in the community pharmacy in Saudi Arabia.

CONCLUSION

Educational sessions regarding MTM services among the older adult population are highly recommended for community pharmacists before its implementation.
