“…These results are also well supported by the studies of Wang et al and Rodriguez et al [ 42 , 53 ]. Review findings reported pharmacists regularly monitored the records of patients admitted to ICUs, reviewed their prescriptions and lab reports, managed their medication errors and did interventions to balance their electrolytes and these findings were supported by the literature [ 54 , 55 , 56 , 57 , 58 , 59 ].…”

Pharmacists are essential members of the healthcare team. The emergence of the novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has led pharmacists to undertake additional clinical roles. We aim to conduct a systematic review on the interventions and impact of pharmacist-delivered services in managing COVID-19 patients. We searched PubMed, Embase, Scopus, CINAHL plus, International Pharmaceutical Abstracts, and Web of Science from 1 December 2019 (the first case of COVID-19 emerged) to 13 January 2022 to retrieve the articles. Cochrane handbook and PRISMA guidelines were followed respectively to perform and report the review. The pharmacist-led interventions were reported following the Descriptive Elements of Pharmacist Intervention Characterization Tool (DEPICT) version 2. The protocol of systematic review was registered on PROSPERO (CRD42021277128). Studies quality was assessed with the modified NOS scale. In total, 7 observational studies were identified from 10,838 studies. Identification of dosage errors (n = 6 studies), regimen modifications (n = 5), removal of obsolete/duplicate medications (n = 5), identification and management of adverse drug reactions (n = 4), drug interactions prevention (n = 2), and physicians acceptance rate (n = 3) of therapy-related services delivered in-person or via tele-pharmacy were among the pharmacist-delivered services. Common interventions delivered by pharmacists also included optimizing the use of antibacterial, antivirals, and anticoagulants in COVID-19 infected patients. The acceptance of pharmacist-delivered services by physicians was high (88.5–95.5%). Included studies have described pharmacists’ beneficial role in managing patients with COVID-19 including detection, resolution, and prevention of medication-related problems, with physicians demonstrating high trust in pharmacists’ advice. Future research should assess the feasibility and scalability of such roles in real-world settings.

Objectives: To declare the pediatrics and neonates' standardized concentration of miscellaneous mediations intravenous infusion as new initiatives in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Methods: It is a new initiative project drove by national standardized concentration of miscellaneous mediations intravenous infusion services. The projects formulated from the international business model, pharmacy project guidelines and project management institution guidelines of a new project. The initiative project is written through project management professionals and contained of several parts, including the initial phase, the planning phase, the execution phase, the monitoring and controlling phase. Results: The pediatrics and neonates' standardized concentration of miscellaneous mediations intravenous infusion services with a defined vision, mission and goals. The services had multiple benefits including clinical and economic on patients, the continuous of the project assured by risk management model description and the monitoring and controlling of the services as declared as explored in the review. The transition to operation project though closing project stage demonstrated in the analysis. Conclusion: The pediatrics and neonates' standardized concentration of miscellaneous mediations intravenous infusion services is a new initiative as part of the intravenous admixture program. The pediatrics and neonates' standardized concentration of miscellaneous mediations intravenous infusion might improve patient outcome and avoid added unnecessary cost; it is highly recommended to implement in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
