The Community Pharmacy Enhanced Services Network (CPESN) has been established throughout the U.S. to incorporate high-performing pharmacies to provide enhanced services for high-risk patients including those with diabetes. Methods: The primary objective of this study is to assess the readiness of community pharmacists within CPESN to deliver minimum enhanced services (MES) and diabetes self-management education and support (DSMES) among diabetes patients. A cross-sectional survey was distributed via email to all pharmacies within CPESN New York. Descriptive statistics were utilized to assess survey responses. Results: A total of 84 participants responded to the survey. Top DSMES services offered included: education on blood glucose monitoring (95%), education on lifestyle changes (88%), and monitoring medication adherence to diabetes-related medications (88%). The most time spent per week on DSMES services was for monitoring medication adherence to diabetes-related medications (5.9 +/- 7.0 hours). Top facilitators included technology to execute workflow (55%), adequate workflow design (54%), and proper training for pharmacy personnel (53%). Common barriers in executing services are lack of collaboration with other health professionals (54%) and proper training of pharmacy personnel (49%). Conclusion: CPESN-NY pharmacies demonstrate the opportunity to adapt clinical services including DSMES, which will enhance their performance measures in APMs. Facilitators and barriers have been identified thus next steps in the would be to address how to overcome these barriers.","PeriodicalId":16818,"journal":{"name":"Journal of pharmacy practice","volume":" ","pages":"8971900251350509"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2025-06-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144258267","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate warfarin management by NPPs compared to usual medical care (UMC) in ambulatory patients. Methods: We conducted a systematic search of PubMed (MEDLINE), Ovid Embase, Ovid International Pharmaceutical Abstracts, Scopus, CINAHL (EBSCO), and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL) from inception to January 2024. Studies were included if they were randomized controlled trials or quasi-experimental designs comparing warfarin management across professions. Two independent reviewers performed title and abstract screening, full-text review, data extraction, and risk of bias assessment. Results were pooled using random effects models. Results: Of 19 122 citations identified, 6 met the inclusion criteria. NPPs included pharmacists (4), nurse practitioners (1), and multidisciplinary teams (1). Meta-analysis showed no significant difference in time spent in therapeutic range (TTR) (mean difference [MD] 1.64%; 95% confidence interval [CI]-1.86 to 5.16, I2 = 0%)) for NPPs vs UMC.

Determine awareness of and describe eco-initiatives that the department of pharmacy can implement to aim to reduce the carbon footprint in hospital pharmacy in an effort to 'go green'. Methods: In a quality improvement initiative, pharmacy employees (i.e. pharmacists and pharmacy technicians) completed a cross-sectional survey designed to gauge willingness to 'go green' at work, to identify actionable areas of waste, and to assess commuting practices. Results: A total of 15 respondents completed the survey conducted March 14th -April 7th, 2022. Most respondents (73%) were willing to engage in more sustainable practices at work. The main barriers to implementing green practices at work were 'too time consuming' (20%), 'adds too much complexity' (20%), and 'cost' (16%). For commuting, 60% indicated the primary mode of transportation as 'personal vehicle', where 'subsidized transit' and was listed as the greatest incentive that could encourage a greener commute. The three largest areas of waste cited were 'single use plastic' (36%), 'limited of awareness of green practices' (15%), and 'lights left on in empty rooms' (12%). Conclusions: Pharmacy staff shared willingness to engage in more sustainable 'go green' practices but raised challenges to do so. With the knowledge that Canada has the second most climate intensive health system, there is a need for future research to describe how hospital pharmacies can contribute strategically to 'go green', advancing with implementing low carbon sustainable pharmacy practices.","PeriodicalId":16818,"journal":{"name":"Journal of pharmacy practice","volume":" ","pages":"322-327"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2025-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142502631","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The optimal intensity of anticoagulation to balance the risk of bleeding and prevention of thrombotic complications in this patient population is not well described. Objective: To compare bleeding events in patients on ECMO anticoagulated with standard vs low intensity heparin protocols. Methods: This single-center, retrospective cohort study included adult patients on VA- or VV-ECMO and anticoagulated with low or standard intensity heparin protocols. The primary outcome was the incidence of major bleeding; secondary outcomes included the incidence of minor bleeding, thrombotic complications, heparin-induced thrombocytopenia, in-hospital mortality, time in therapeutic range, anti-Xa correlation with aPTT, intensive care unit and hospital lengths of stay, oxygenator exchanges, and rate of protocol switching. Results: A total of 27 patients (14 low intensity, 13 standard intensity) were included. There were six major bleeding events in the low intensity group and four in the standard intensity group (P = 0.69); there were four minor bleeding events in the low intensity group and five in the standard intensity group (P = 0.69). Seven patients in the standard intensity group switched protocols; zero patients in the low intensity group switched protocols (P = 0.002). There were no differences in any other outcomes.

Patient was switched from warfarin to apixaban after 3 months of labile international normalized ratio (INR) levels. The patient's INR was monitored at a pharmacist-led anticoagulation clinic. As the patient's INR remained subtherapeutic while on warfarin, a shared decision was made to switch the patient to apixaban 2.5 mg twice daily due to consistently painful enoxaparin injections, inconsistent vitamin K intake, frequent clinic visits and unstable renal function. Patient tolerated the anticoagulant switch well and reported satisfaction with decreased clinic visits and variable vitamin K diet. At 12 months post-switch, the patient's complete blood count remains stable, no reported signs and symptoms of bleeding, and no new CVA or venous thromboembolism (VTE) events identified. Based on an improvement in renal function, the dose was increased to 5 mg twice daily.","PeriodicalId":16818,"journal":{"name":"Journal of pharmacy practice","volume":" ","pages":"347-350"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2025-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142348905","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As health systems expand due to mergers and acquisitions, ID pharmacy teams strive to deliver consistent care across the enterprise. This report describes the fusion of multiple AMS practice models during the integration of health systems to optimize and standardize care delivery.SummaryThe merger of two large, community hospital systems necessitated the recalibration of services of both legacy antimicrobial stewardship programs (ASPs). While there was agreement that ID pharmacists perform daily prospective audit and feedback of antimicrobials and respond to diagnostics and cultures, the prioritization of practices across the enterprise that retained allowances for individual hospital nuance was paramount. The result was a practice model dedicated to consistent patient care regardless of geographic location, socioeconomic status, or reliance on a single ID pharmacist's availability. Additionally, the team coordinates the system ASP, in collaboration with medical staff. This includes implementation of stewardship initiatives, formulary management and guideline and document control. Lastly, ID pharmacists serve as a resource for prescribers and pharmacy staff and leadership.ConclusionThe development of a standardized ID pharmacy practice model delivered through a hybrid of remote and in-person coverage addressed disparities in clinical services, education and ASP management. Complexities such as care gaps during leave are reconciled with this process while maintaining the minimum expectations of every ID pharmacist. This was especially crucial to establish consistent patient care across state lines with the rise of virtual services and inability to develop on-site rapport.","PeriodicalId":16818,"journal":{"name":"Journal of pharmacy practice","volume":" ","pages":"340-346"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2025-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142817897","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
