Why is Active ADE Surveillance
Important?
• ADEs may cause 100,000 deaths
• Undercounting of ADEs with current
reporting systems
• Limited data collected in outpatient setting
Objectives of NEISS-CADES
Quantify and describe injuries from the use
of drugs that are treated in EDs:
•
•
•
•
Burden of ADE problem nationally
Magnitude of known drug reactions
Mechanism (overdose, allergy…)
Signal detection / Special
investigations
What is an Adverse Drug “Event”?
“Events” are outcomes:
•
Allergic Reactions
•
Side-Effects
•
Medication Poisonings
-
Overdose causing injury
-
Exposure leading to
intervention
What is a “Drug”?
“Drugs” include:
•
Prescription medications
•
Over-the-counter medications
•
Topical medications
•
Vaccinations & Vitamins
•
Supplements & Herbals
What is NOT an ADE?
ADEs do NOT include:
x Illegal (street) drugs
x Self-harm
x Abuse
x Reactions to drugs given during
the current ED visit
ADEs: Summary Definition
Someone comes to the ED because:
•
Allergic Reaction to a drug
•
Side-Effect of a drug
•
Taking a drug in the Wrong Way
•
Taking the Wrong Drug
 No evidence of self-harm or drug abuse
Identifying and Reporting Adverse Drug Events
START
STOP
1. Look in Diagnosis Section of chart:
Do not fill out
ADE Screen
Do diagnoses include key words?
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Allergic reaction
Adverse effect
Side-effect (s/e)
Secondary to (2° to, due to, related to)
Ingestion (poisoning)
Toxicity (overdose, supra-therapeutic level)
Medication error
NO
2. Is a Drug involved?
YES
Drugs include: prescription meds,
over-the-counter meds, vaccines,
vitamins, & dietary supplements.
4. Fill out ADE Screen:
Or suspicious symptoms?
•
•
•
•
Angioedema (face/lip/throat swelling)
Anaphylaxis (severe allergy)
Rash (urticaria, dermatitis)
Bleeding (GI Bleed, hematemesis, epistaxis,
hypocoaguability, high INR/PT)
YES
• Record ED chart DIAGNOSIS
word for word
3. Is there evidence of:
•
•
•
Suicide attempt?
Intentional overdose?
Abuse / Recreational use?
• Hypoglycemia (low blood sugar)
YES
NO
STOP
Do not fill out
ADE Screen
NO
• Record drug name(s)
• If available, record dose, route,
frequency, and duration
• Record reason for visit, testing,
and treatments
• Record any other information
(e.g., discharge instructions or
medication error information)

Limitations
Case Identification
• Only ADEs treated in EDs
• Only includes clinician-diagnosed and
documented events
• Sensitivity of coder case identification
needs improvement
Causality Assessment
• Limited to abstracted ED data
Implications for Other Systems
NHAMCS: Poisoning or ADE?
Case
Event
ICD code
A
92 yo with general ill feeling – gets a
little drowsy, DX= digoxin toxicity
E-code = poisoning
N-code = poisoning
B
86 yo with weakness and labored
breathing, DX= digoxin toxicity
E-code = Adverse
Drug Effect
N-code = poisoning
How does a patient have an adverse effect of a
drug “properly administered” if the patient also
has a diagnosis of “poisoning”?
