- W2034981842 abstract "Study Objectives: We sought to document the degree of polypharmacy, the frequency of adverse drug-related events (ADREs) leading to emergency department presentation that were recognized by emergency physicians, and the frequency of potential adverse drug interactions (PADIs) in medication regimens of elderly patients in the ED. Methods: We conducted a retrospective chart review on 300 randomly selected ED visits made by patients 65 years of age and older between January 1 and December 31, 1998. ADREs were defined according to a standardized algorithm. PADIs were identified by using the drug interaction database PharmVigilance. Results: After excluding 17 patient visits with inadequate documentation, 283 were left for review. Of these, 257 (90.8%) patients were taking 1 or more medications (prescribed or over the counter). The number of medications consumed ranged from 0 to 17 and averaged 4.2 (SD±3.1) drugs per patient. ADREs accounted for 10.6% of all ED visits in our patient group. The most frequently implicated classes of medications were nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, antibiotics, anticoagulants, diuretics, hypoglycemics, β-blockers, calcium-channel blockers, and chemotherapeutic agents. Thirty-one percent of all patients in our group had at least 1 PADI in their medication list. Among patients who presented because of an ADRE, 50% had at least 1 PADI in their medication list that was unrelated to the ADRE with which they presented. Conclusion: ADREs are an important cause of ED presentation in the elderly. PADIs are found in a significant proportion of medication lists. Emergency physicians must be vigilant in monitoring elderly patients for medication-related problems. [Hohl CM, Dankoff J, Colacone A, Afilalo M.
