The study provided a profile of a pharmacy-based population of 414 patients visiting the pharmacy, all of whom are at high risk of experiencing drug-related problems. Pharmacy staff needs to take this high rate of DRPs in people with angina pectoris, asthma and type 2 diabetes into account when dispensing medicines to and advising patients from the three groups, especially when explaining how to use medicines appropriately.

“…In this study, the students also constituted a very strong resource for collecting data on pharmacy practice, contributing to new knowledge (Haugbølle, Sørensen & Gundersen, 2002a;Haugbølle, Sørensen & Henriksen, 2002b). However, it is important to note that good results require the involvement of both students and pharmacies in the study.…”

Aim: The study objective is to evaluate whether a pharmacy internship linked to a practice research project produces studentlearning outcomes that are more relevant to new and extended roles of community pharmacists than traditional apprenticeship learning.Method: A study combining undergraduate pharmacy education, pharmacy practice development and practice research in a participatory action research design. Students contributed to the study during the internship by collecting data and presenting the results to the training pharmacy. A triangulation of methods assessed both internally and externally was used to evaluate student learning for project participants and non-participants alike.Conclusion: Pharmacy students are incorporated into a situated learning context during an internship. Most pharmacy students learn from the internship experience, but students who participated in the Pharmacy-University Study learned more than those who did not. This implies the creation of a more appropriate situation for learning for future pharmacy students.

“…Some studies have reported that patients did appear to be taking their medicines as prescribed, [74][75][76] whilst other studies found that some patients had stopped taking some or all their medicines. [77][78][79][80] Other studies reported a tendency towards taking medicines, but did not account for the views of patients who deviated from this tendency, by reporting that most of the patients seemed to be taking their medicines 81 or used phrases such as "good adherence was generally found". 82 The most common reasons why patients stopped taking their medicines include fear of dependency, dislike of medicine, and experience of side effects.…”

Effectiveness of public health and education programs for creating awareness of and managing cardiovascular disease

This paper reviews the effectiveness of public health and education programs for creating awareness of, preventing and managing cardiovascular disease (CVD), with a particular focus on their impact on people's behavior. Evidence-based guidance recommends that such programs, eg, cardiac rehabilitation, should include risk assessment, modification of lifestyle risk factors and, where appropriate, medication. However, despite substantial evidence of cardiac rehabilitation being beneficial, a significant proportion of eligible patients fail to receive cardiac rehabilitation and numerous barriers to attendance remain, particularly because cardiac rehabilitation service provision continues to be patchy and of variable quality. Evidence suggests that educational programs to prevent CVD may achieve favorable reductions in mortality and overall CVD risk. However, whilst people tend to have significant knowledge of the modifiable risk factors for CVD, this does not necessarily lead to action to reduce risk, because lay epidemiology appears to play a significant role in sophisticated determinations of CVD causation, amongst other factors. Some people, but not all, make and maintain some lifestyle changes, but not necessarily all of the changes recommended, because they may only change aspects of lifestyle that are perceived to have been likely causes of their CVD. In addition, many people experience difficulty in making and maintaining lifestyle changes. There appears to be considerable disquiet among patients about taking medicines prescribed for CVD, particularly concerning side effects, which in some instances may affect medicine-taking. New developments and patient approaches recognize the wider societal issues that influence the lifestyle choices people make. Initiatives to increase attendance and widen access to cardiac rehabilitation have included home-based and technological innovations as alternatives to hospital-based cardiac rehabilitation programs. Effective future approaches are likely to build on these developments, and offer even greater choice in accessing preventative services.
