1 The Practice of Medicine Clinical Psychopharmacology and Malpractice: What Clinically Relevant Lessons Can Be Learned? Sheldon H. Preskorn, MD Professor of Psychiatry, Kansas University School of Medicine President and CEO World-wide Psychiatric Drug Development Consultants, Inc. Wichita, Kansas Professor of Psychiatry, Laureate Institute for Brain Research Tulsa, Oklahoma A physician is by no means physician to living beings in general, not even physician to the human race, but rather, physician to a human individual, and still more physician to an individual in certain morbid conditions peculiar to himself and forming what is called his idiosyncrasy Claude Bernard, An Introduction to the Study of Experimental Medicine, 1865 With a show of hands, please indicate which you are: a) Psychiatrist b) Resident psychiatry c) Another type of physician d) APRN or PA e) RN, MSW, or other mental health care professional f) None of the above My relevant background with respect to this presentation includes: Psychiatrist Clinical pharmacologist Preclinical pharmacologist Neuropathology General medical internship Expert witness principally on causation Tommy 6-year-old, weighed 55 lbs What are the 4 Ds of a malpractice lawsuit? Diagnosed with ADHD Originally treated with amphetamine and methylphenidate, but inadequate improvement Next treated with imipramine beginning with 50 mg/day and gradually titrated over 3 months to 200 mg/day based on clinical assessment of response ADHD = attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder. Preskorn SH. J Psychiatr Pract. 2011;17(2):
2 Tommy (continued) Tommy (continued) One day at school, he collapsed His teachers initiated CPR and called an ambulance His heartbeat was re-established, but he had fixed dilated pupils and no spontaneous respirations In the ED, he was maintained on a ventilator and found to have Ventricular tachycardia and fibrillation One measurable QTc that was 580 msec long A plasma drug concentration drawn revealed a total concentration of 1000 ng/ml He experienced a recurrent bout of ventricular fibrillation and cardiac arrest and was pronounced dead An autopsy revealed no anatomical cause for sudden death Preskorn SH. J Psychiatr Pract. 2011;17(2): ED = emergency department. Preskorn SH. J Psychiatr Pract. 2011;17(2): Package Insert Learning Objective #2: Examine the relevance of the package insert in malpractice suits 1. Who writes it? 2. Why do they write it? 3. Upon what is it based? 4. Why will it generally be a document brought up in a malpractice lawsuit involving the alleged misuse of a medication? McMahon D, et al. J Psychiatr Pract. 2014;20(4): Package Insert Where does the PI time-wise fit in the drug development process? What are class warnings? Warnings that are included in the PI for a drug not because the adverse events were observed with the drug necessarily but because they were observed with other members of the class.
3 Can a drug avoid class warnings? Does failure to follow the PI necessarily mean that the practitioner was derelict? What about the case of Tommy? What about the case of Tommy? The PI for imipramine warned against exceeding 2.5 mg/kg in a child. He was on 8 mg/kg. The imipramine PI recommended to measure an ECG before starting the drug and after each dose increase. That was not done. Tommy (continued) Beyond the malpractice lawsuit, did this prescriber face any other consequence? Learning Objective #3: Discuss clinical pharmacology principles, which have been pivotal to the outcomes of malpractice cases, to improve your care of patients

Clin Pharmacol Ther. 1996;59(2): year-old Male with Tourette Syndrome and Bronchitis (continued) Why did he die? Which prescriber if any was culpable? Michael 18-year-old high school senior, valedictorian, and highly regarded long-distance runner His beloved grandmother was dying because of an aggressive cancer He is seen by 3 different PCPs in an 11-day period of time Flockhart DA, et al. Clin Pharmacol Ther. 1996;59(2):189. PCP = primary care physician.

Hint: Look at the data and think physiologically Which prescriber if any is culpable? 66-year-old Male with MDD Presents with Dizziness 66-year-old male successfully treated for psychotic major depression with paroxetine, 40 mg/day, and iloperidone, 24 mg/day administered once a day, and now on maintenance therapy He develops bronchitis and his internist treats him with clarithromycin, 250 mg twice daily for 14 days. He comes for his routine psychiatric follow-up at the end of the first week of antibiotic therapy. He is doing well except for a couple of incidences of intermittent dizziness and an episode of near syncope His comorbid medical conditions include type 2 diabetes mellitus well controlled with metformin, moderate obesity, and status post quadruple coronary bypass surgery 4 years ago MDD = major depressive disorder.
8 66-year-old Male with MDD Presents with Dizziness (continued) How do you conceptualize this case? What is your differential diagnosis of his new chief complaint? What do you do? A 75-year-old Male with Partially Responsive MDD Psychiatrist prescribes 2 mg/day of aripiprazole Pharmacy fills prescription for 20 mg/day One month later, patient has akathisia on his return visit Psychiatrist tells him to cut tablets in half (10 mg/day) Preskorn SH. J Psychiatr Pract. 2013;19(5): Preskorn S, et al. J Psychiatr Pract. 2015;21(5): A 75-year-old Male with Partially Responsive MDD (continued) 2 months later, the patient runs out of first prescription and asks for a refill Psychiatrist writes for 2 mg/day Patient notices the difference in tablet appearance and brings it to the attention of the psychiatrist Psychiatrist notifies pharmacy and the error is confirmed A 75-year-old Male with Partially Responsive MDD (continued) Patient continues on 2 mg/day of aripiprazole for next 3 months and is doing well He then develops an orofacial dyskinesia Lawsuit is filed against the pharmacy What was the outcome? Take-Home Messages Remember 1. The 4 Ds of a malpractice lawsuit 2. Clinical pharmacology principles 3. The role of the package insert 4. Not to jump to conclusions Document to explain what you did and why You can sometimes make a physiological measurement of the adverse effect of a drug before an adverse event occurs. I believe these take-homes are good medicine, not just defensive
