10 Contents Background Research aims Study I (paper I) Study II (papers II and III) Implications 10

11 Overall research aims To examine aspects of prescribing quality among older people acutely admitted to hospital (study I, paper I) To explore associations between exposure to psychotropic drugs and the risk of hip fracture (study II, papers II and III) 11

13 Intermediate care nursing home unit Haukeland University Hospital Haraldsplass Deaconess Hospital Intermediate care nursing home unit Municipality of Bergen 13

14 Intermediate care nursing home unit Inclusion criteria >70 years, community-dwelling Acutely admitted to hospital Transfer within 72 hours Discharge (home) within 3 weeks realistic Informed consent required Exclusion criteria Surgery, intensive care, delirium, severe dementia Multidisciplinary geriatric approach 14

15 Research aims To identify inappropriate prescribing among older people ( 70) on acute hospital admission and on discharge from an intermediate-care nursing home unit (INHU) and hospital wards (HWs) To compare changes in inappropriate prescribing within and between these groups during stay 15

16 Methods Study period August June 2008 Data collection Demographics: age, gender, length of stay Medications (admission and discharge): regular + on demand Outcome measures Drug use Potentially inappropriate medicines (PIMs) NORGEP: 21 drugs + 15 combinations to avoid Drug-drug interactions (DDIs) interaksjoner.no: 4 point severity scale 16

17 Study population 400 hospital 200 interm hospital 133 Drop-outs -complete medication lists unavailable (6) -not retrospectively identifiable in hospital datasystems (10) -not meeting inclusion criteria or randomized 1 (80) -consent withdrawn (14) 17

18 Results I Demographics N=290 (INHU=157, HW=133) Mean age 85 years, 71% women Drug use Mean drugs Increased: analgesics, laxatives, hypnotics, cough medications Reductions: none HW hospital ward INHU intermediate care nursing home unit 18

19 Results II Potentially inappropriate medicines (PIMs) 23/34 (eligible) NORGEP items At least one PIM: admission 24% discharge 35% Most frequent PIM: 3 psychotropic drugs PIMs increased: 3 psychotropic drugs, NSAIDs combinations PIMs reduced: none INHU patients less likely to have diazepam initiated HW hospital ward INHU intermediate care nursing home unit 19

20 Results III Drug-drug interactions (DDIs) At least one DDI: admission 53% discharge 68% Severe DDIs ( should be avoided ) scarce on admission, remained unchanged in both settings No significant group differences Trend: DDIs precautions necessary increased more in HWs HW hospital ward INHU intermediate care nursing home unit 20

21 Summary of results study I Drug use extensive and PIMs and DDIs frequent on admission - increased regardless of setting Several psychotropic drugs Unadvisable drug combinations including NSAIDs Severe DDIs were scarce No reductions in number of drugs, PIMs or DDIs were identified in either setting Minor differences in prescribing quality identified 21

24 Aims To examine associations between antidpressant (paper II) and anxiolytic or hypnotic (paper III) drug exposure and the risk of hip fracture among older (60+) Norwegians To examine associations between exposure to hypnotic drugs and the time of hip fracture (paper III) Provided associations found, to estimate attributable risk: effect on number of hip fractures per year (papers II and III) 24

25 The Norwegian Prescription Database All ~ 2.8 million prescriptions for antidepressants All ~ 7.5 million prescriptions for anxiolytics and hypnotics The Central Population Registry All ~ persons born < 1945 The National Hip Fracture Registry All ~ hip fractures Research database

26 Methods Standardized incidence ratio (SIR) Birth year, sex, time of year of fracture Hip fracture incidence during drug exposure vs Hip fracture incidence during non-exposure SIR >1 indicates increased risk of hip fracture during exposure Engeland

27 Exposed and unexposed person time

28 Methods - assumptions Purchased drugs = consumed drugs Exposed person time = number of days corresponding to number of defined daily doses (DDD) prescribed Engeland

48 Implications for clinical practice Main findings Inappropriate prescribing common - psychotropics Clinically relevant associations psychotropics - hip fracture Improved drug treatment for older people needed Look for inappropriate prescribing Multidisciplinary medication reviews Recommended psychotropic drugs (SSRIs, SABs and z-hypnotics) not safer than traditional alternatives with regard to hip fractures Non-pharmacological treatment options Be aware of fall risk and possible effects on bone tissue Follow-up Haney 2010, Bondesson 2013, Dalleur

49 Appropriate drug therapy Evidence-based knowledge Drug use widespread Inappropriate prescribing (IP) widespread Increased risk of severe adverse events, readmissions and mortality Check-lists and medication reviews reduce IP Evidence scarce Clinical outcomes of interventions Reductions in falls and readmissions Multifaceted interventions promising (e.g. CGA) Moriarty F et al Eur J Clin Pharmacol 2015, Gallagher P et al Int J Clin Pharmacol 2008, 49 Beijer H et al Pharm World Sci 2002, Ebbesen J Arch Intern Med 2001, Petrovic M et al Drugs Ageing 2012, Saltvedt I et al JAGS 2002

53 Approval of drugs Pre-marketing studies Recommendations (drugs intended for chronic use) 1000 patients in total 100 of these 12 months (80% of drugs ) Dujinhoven R et al PLoS Med

54 Number of patients studied prior to approval Dujinhoven R et al PLoS Med

55 Approval of drugs Safety and long-term efficacy knowledge lacking Insufficient number of patients studied before marketing 50% of drugs, severe adverse effects identified after approval 10% restricted use 3% of drugs withdrawn Pharmacovigilance reporting matters! Generalizability limited Older adults frequent users, vulnerable AND under-represented Dujinhoven R et al PLoS Med 2013, Schroll J et al PLoS One
