Background and Objective: Patient safety is a major concern in health care. Research is an important tool to minimize preventable errors. Research performance and trends evaluation need to be identified for future guidance. Our objective was to evaluate the research performance in Arab World countries related to patient safety so that real picture is available to all stake holders for future application Methods: This was a descriptive exploratory study carried at King Abdulaziz University Jeddah, using Bibliometric analyses on Web of Science extracted data, exploring the research publications related to Patient Safety from the Arab World in last two decades (2001-2020). Digital resources were used. Data collected was further explored to see the trends. Results: Only 2% of total worldwide publications on Patient Safety were from Arab World. A positive trend, however, has emerged since 2015. Out of 5940 documents identified, only 383 had single authorship. Egypt and Saudi Arab were the major contributors. Other countries had less or even zero publications. Researchers are coordinating with others in Western countries to enhance the research productivity. Cairo University with 734 publications had most affiliations. Publications on safety culture and medication safety were frequent. Hospital Acquired Infections and error reporting had limited research. Conclusion: Researches on patient safety in the Arab World are not sufficient. Countries other than Egypt and Saudi Arabia also need to contribute more frequently. Critical problems, like Hospital Acquired Infections, should have regular research from all countries to assist those treating patients and those making health related policies. doi: https://doi.org/10.12669/pjms.39.6.7514 How to cite this: Zubairi NA, Butt NS, Malik AA, Gazzaz ZJ.

“…There are still relatively few reviews in the field of PS, be they systematic, narrative, scoping, or qualitative. This may be because the growth in research in this area is only recent and there is therefore an unmet need to bring together enough references on the same topic to ensure a robust review [40][41][42][43][44] .…”

Resumo A Assistência Farmacêutica (AF) é um campo em expansão no Brasil e nos últimos 25 anos vem se consolidando também através da publicação científica. O objetivo deste trabalho foi investigar a evolução da AF como campo na Revista Ciência & Saúde Coletiva. Uma revisão de escopo, em quatro períodos, 1996-2003, 2004-2010, 2011-2015, 2016-2019, foi realizada por duplas de pesquisadores, buscando palavras e termos de busca nos títulos. As inclusões foram totalizadas por ano de publicação, suas características descritas quanto ao tipo de artigo, idioma, local e instituição de origem do primeiro autor e classificadas por temáticas principais, secundárias e especificidades. Foram resgatados 307 artigos e incluídos 260. Os resultados refletiram aumento de publicações ao longo do tempo, participação majoritária de artigos de tema livre e originais, em português, de autores das regiões Sul e Sudeste, de universidades públicas e da Fiocruz. Os temas principais foram Utilização de Medicamentos (161 artigos), Gestão (56) e Temas Tangenciais ao Ciclo da AF (43). A partir da classificação foi elaborada uma ontologia própria da AF. O campo reúne política pública a atividades gerenciais e de cuidados em saúde à população. Espera-se que essa variada gama de interrelações venha a se expressar cada vez mais na publicação científica.

“…Two reviews of the pharmaceutical care of people with sensory impairments identified no studies of interventions that sought to improve this care [28,48]. However, opportunities to enhance both the professional support, (e.g., communication skills) and the organisational framework (e.g., engagement of sign language interpreters and implementation of tailored dispensing and packaging interventions) so as to support people with sensory impairments have been documented.…”

Medication-Related Outcomes and Health Equity: Evidence for Pharmaceutical Care

et al. 2023

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Marginalised people experience diminished access to pharmaceutical care and worse medication-related outcomes than the general population. Health equity is a global priority. This article explores the key evidence of health inequity and medication use, structures the causes and contributory factors and suggests opportunities that can be taken to advance the pharmaceutical care agenda so as to achieve health equity. The causes of, and contributors to, this inequity are multi-fold, with patient- and person-related factors being the most commonly reported. Limited evidence is available to identify risk factors related to other aspects of a personal medication use system, such as technology, tasks, tools and the internal and the external environments. Multiple opportunities exist to enhance equity in medication-related outcomes through pharmaceutical care research and practice. To optimise the effects and the sustainable implementation of these opportunities, it is important to (1) ensure the meaningful inclusion and engagement of members of marginalised groups, (2) use a person-centred approach and (3) apply a systems-based approach to address all of the necessary components of a system that interact and form a network as work processes that produce system outcomes.
