1 A Comparison of the Efficiency and Effectiveness of Blank Versus Pre-populated Admission Medication Reconciliation Order (MRO) Forms Rajwant Minhas, B.Sc. (Pharm.) LMPS Resident Project Preceptors Anita Lo, FH Medication Reconciliation Facilitator Laura Drozdiak, FH Medication Reconciliation Facilitator Mark Collins, Director of Pharmacy

Background Medication Reconciliation: A formal process in which accurate and complete medication information is transferred at interfaces of care 1 –Reduces medication discrepancies by ~ 75% 2 In FH a blank Medication Reconciliation Order (MRO) form is used at admission No published studies have compared blank MRO form with one that is pre-populated with a patient’s PharmaNet record 1. Getting started kit: Medication Reconciliation Prevention of Adverse Drug Events. Safer healthcare now! 2007 May. 2. Hughes RG, editor. Patient safety and quality: an evidence-based handbook for nurses 2008 Apr.

3 Objectives Purpose: To determine if pre-populated MRO form is more effective and more efficient than the blank MRO form Primary Outcome: Effectiveness: Compare number of medication discrepancies per patient Secondary Outcomes: Effectiveness: Percent of charts with a complete MRO form within 24 hours of admission Efficiency/Satisfaction: Healthcare workers’ satisfaction

Methodology Longitudinal study, convenient sample at a 160 bed acute care hospital Pre Process Measure: % of charts with MRO form % of MRO forms complete 20 patients audited every 2 weeks Go Live Date: Oct 17, 2011 Post Pre-implementation compared to post-implementation when special cause variation was identified Outcome Measure: # of undocumented intentional discrepancies # of unintentional discrepancies 20 patients audited pre and post- implementation Per patient

5 Methodology Inclusion Criteria: Patients admitted for > 24 hours Patients admitted to medicine Exclusion Criteria: Unable to communicate in English Unconscious patients without any family members or drug vials to verify medication history No PharmaNet record Health care professionals surveyed to determine satisfaction rate Statistical Analysis: Mann-Whitney U tests, Chi Square tests, Statistic Process Control (SPC)

Results: % MROs Completed Go Live Date: Oct 17 UCL = Upper Control Limit LCL = Lower Control Limit

Results: Average Number of Undocumented Intentional and Unintentional Discrepancies Pre and Post Implementation Per Patient P value: <0.013P value: 0.529

Results Process MeasurePrePostP-value % of charts with MRO form 15/20 = 75%16/20 = 80%0.075 % of MRO forms complete 4/20 = 20%15/20 = 75%0.001

Results: Overall Satisfaction Rate for Blank vs. Pre- populated Form Response Rate = 15%

Limitations Restricted to a single site Longitudinal study design

Conclusion A pre-populated MRO form is more effective and efficient than a blank form as demonstrated by: –Higher completion rates –Fewer medication errors –Greater user satisfaction
