– an academic spin off company www.medbase.fi • According to Lazarou et al., JAMA 1998 (metaanalysis) - 39 prospective studies with in-patients in USA: Serious drug injuries found: – 6.7% - 2 216 000 patients p.a. – Fatality rate 0.32% - 106 000 patients p.a. – Is amongst top 5 in cause of deaths list in USA. As common as accidents, diabetes or pulmonary diseases. – Direct cost for hospitals and healthcare system 1.56 – 4 billion USD • 1500 new publications every year – we read them! • Medbase is founded by highly trained medical doctors specialised in drug therapy • Medbase products improve drug safety in the main problem areas of: • • • • • Drug interactions & adverse drug reactions Drug use in pregnancy and lactation Renal failure Hepatic impairment Natural products • Recommendations save time and reduce the need for consultation • Recommendations on dosage modification or alternative drugs • Holistic clinically oriented recommendation on patient monitoring • Quarterly updates guarantee always up-to-date information • Easily integrated SQL databases to portals, EPRs, pharmacy IT-systems, mobile & PDA solutions • New language versions easy and inexpensive to produce • Easy integration to local drug registries – Generic drug name, fully ATC- and RxNorm- code compliant • Designed for point of care Interaction Database • SFINX contains information on more than 17.000 drug interactions (5/2014) - one of the most comprehensive drug interaction databases in the market • SFINX gives a warning on the potential clinical problem with a specific drug interaction taking into account the formulation of the drug • SFINX provides medical expert recommendations on circumventing or controlling the clinical problem, e.g. by suggesting an alternative choice of drug • The database covers the explanation of interaction mechanisms and a summary of the documentation the interaction is based on, as well as key references Pharmacological Assessment On-line Purpose • A tool to analyse 9 clinically important adverse drug effects from patient’s medication: – – – – – – – – – Anticholinergic effect QT-prolongation Sedation Orthostatic hypotension Renal toxicity Seizure risk Risk for bleeding Constipation Serotonergic overstimulation • More than 1400 drugs analysed/characterised • Scoring based on SOP specifically designed for each adverse effect • Scoring: • • • • 0 - No effect 1 - Mild 2 - Moderate 3 - Severe • Over 12000 scores • A specific algorithm designed to relate the score to the level of severity (A-D) for each adverse effect: • Standard phrases (easy to translate) for each adverse effect, e.g. anticholinergic effect: Consequence There is a high risk for anticholinergic effects such as dry mouth, constipation, urinary impairment or retention, risk of falling, cognitive impairment and confusion. Recommendation The risk is additive. Consider reducing the number of anticholinergic drugs. • Decision support for drug use in pregnancy and lactation – Concise understanding on the of the safety of clinically used drugs during different stages of pregnancy and during lactation, including information on: – Clinical, ultrasound, laboratory etc. monitoring – Dosage modification, recommendation on folic acid substitution – Vitamins, micronutrients, illicit drugs – Covers extensively the documentation from the medical literature, manufacturer given information and different national surveillance registers – Same structure as SFINX has (similar easy integration) – Enables quick comparison of different drug within one drug group to ease the right choice of medication http://www.terveysportti.fi/terveysportti/gravbase.home • The most comprehensive database in the world for drug dosing in renal failure • Information on the safety and detailed dosage recommendations of drugs in renal failure • Dosage recommendations based on glomerular filtration rate (GFR) • Evaluation of nephrotoxicity • A fully referenced, ATC & RxNorm-compliant decision support database for portals and integration Prevalence of renal failure • In the U.S. 35.000.000 people are estimated to suffer from chronic renal failure • 13% of the population • Measured GFR<60 ml/min or demonstrated renal injury • A recent meta-analysis estimated that in the Western population 23%-36% of people >64years of age has GFR<60 ml/min Karolinska Institute: reasons for hospitalisation due to ADR (n=115; 96% of ADRs type A) 12% Odar-Cederlöf I et al. Läkartidnigen 2008;105:890-3. Blix HS et al. Nephrol Dial Transplant 2006;21:3164-71. • Prospective study in general hospitals • 201 patients (GFR<60 ml/min; 25% of the whole population) used an average of 10 drugs • Approximately 40% of drugs were harmful to the kidneys or required modification of the dose; 5% fully contraindicated • Almost all patients were co-administered a minimum of two harmful drugs • Typical risk drug toxicity in 62% of exposed patients • 26% of risk drug exposures caused toxicity – – – – – Beta-lactam antibiotics, ciprofloxacin, aminoglycosides antithrombotic agents and anticoagulants anti-inflammatory drugs, codeine, tramadol ACE-inhibitors/sartans, spironolactone/potassium Allopurinol, metformin, sulphonylureas Classification Degree of renal failure, based on glomerular filtration rate (GFR), is divided into four categories, according to the classification by the European Medicines Agency (EMEA): 1. 2. 3. 4. GFR 80-50 ml/min (mild renal failure) GFR 50-30 ml/min (moderate renal failure) GFR 30-10 ml/min (severe renal failure) GFR <10 ml/min (end-stage renal failure; dialysis patient) The safety and need for dosage recommendations is classified into four different categories (A to D), clarified by a colour coding system: No need for dosage modification The information is not available or the recommendation is estimated based on the B pharmacokinetic characteristics of the substance Modification of the dose or dosage interval is needed C The use should be avoided D For categories B and C, a detailled numerical information on the magnitude of dosage modification is provided whenever available. A http://www.terveysportti.fi/terveysportti/renbase.home Drug treatment in hepatic impairment • The disease state that affects drug treatment is cirrhosis – Prevalence about 0.3% of the population • One of the key disease states that requires documentaion for new drugs • In dosing of about 1400 drugs is characterised in hepatic impairment Hepatic impairment and AEs Eur J Clin Pharmacol. 2013;69:1565-73. • Retrospective chart study in 400 patients with cirrhosis at hospital admission (Child-Pugh: A 18%; B 39%; C 43%) • Altogether 1653 prescriptions (0-15 / patient) – Every fifth (336) prescription with an error (184 patients) • 36 contraindicated; 300 too high dose (no adjustment) – 69 adverse events related to non-adjustment of the dose in relation to the hepatic function • 68% preventable – Flaws in prescribing led to 94 extra in-hospital days – Problems drugs: • NSAIDs (g-i bleeding), hypnotics and other benzodiazepines, • PPIs (peritonitis) Classification Degree of hepatic impairment, based on Child-Pugh classification, is divided into three categories, according to the classification by EMA and FDA: A B C Child-Pugh 5-6 (mild hepatic impairment) Child-Pugh 7-9 (moderate hepatic impairment) Child-Pugh >10 (severe hepatic impairment) The safety and need for dosage recommendations is classified into four different categories (A to D), clarified by a colour coding system: No need for dosage modification The information is not available or the recommendation is estimated based on the B pharmacokinetic characteristics of the substance Modification of the dose or dosage interval is needed C The use should be avoided D For categories B and C, a detailled numerical information on the magnitude of dosage modification is provided whenever available.
