Item Antimicrobial Dosing Recommendations During Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy: Different Databases, Different Doses(Başkent Üniversitesi Eczacılık Fakültesi, 2024-03-27) Pehlivanli, Aysel; Yalcin, Tugba Yanik; Yesiler, Fatma Irem; Sahinturk, Helin; Azap, Ozlem Kurt; Zeyneloglu, Pinar; Basgut, BilgenMeticulous antimicrobial management is essential among critically ill patients with acute kidney injury, particularly if renal replacement therapy is needed. Many factors affect drug removal in patients undergoing continuous renal replacement therapy CRRT. In this study, we aimed to compare current databases that are frequently used to adjust CRRT dosages of antimicrobial drugs with the gold standard. The dosage recommendations from various databases for antimicrobial drugs eliminated by CRRT were investigated. The book 'Renal Pharmacotherapy: Dosage Adjustment of Medications Eliminated by the Kidneys' was chosen as the gold standard. There were variations in the databases. Micromedex, UpToDate, and Sanford had similar rates to the gold standard of 45%, 35%, and 30%, respectively. The Micromedex database shows the most similar results to the gold standard source. In addition, a consensus was reached as a result of the expert panel meetings established to discuss the different antimicrobial dose recommendations of the databases.Item Antimicrobial De-Escalation in Intensive Care Unit: Theory and The Reality?(Başkent Üniversitesi Eczacılık Fakültesi, 2024-02-01) Pehlivanli, Aysel; Ozgun, Cigdem; Solmaz, Firdevs Gonca Sasal; Yuksel, Didem; Basgut, Bilgen; Ozcelikay, Arif Tanju; Unal, Mustafa NecmettinItem Antimicrobial Use In Palliative Care Service: A Prevalence Study(Başkent Üniversitesi Eczacılık Fakültesi, 2024-02-01) Bicer, Asim Emre; Pehlivanli, Aysel; Basgut, Bilgen; Ozcelikay, Arif TanjuItem An Essential Problem in Antimicrobial Stewardship: Multi-Drug-Resistant Gram-Negative Bacterial Infection in the Intensive Care Unit(Başkent Üniversitesi, 2024-02-01) Pehlivanli, Aysel; Ozgun, Cigdem; Yuksel, Didem; Solmaz, Firdevs Gonca Sasal; Ozcelikay, Arif Tanju; Unal, Mustafa NecmettinItem The Impact of Clinical Pharmacist in Geriatric Drug-Related Problems: A Scoping Review(Başkent Üniversitesi, 2024-02-01) Ediz, Cigdem; Bicer, Asim Emre; Pehlivanli, Aysel; Basgut, Bilgen; Ozcelikay, Arif TanjuItem Pharmacy Practice And Policy Research In Türkiye: A Systematic Review Of Literature(JOURNAL OF PHARMACEUTICAL POLICY AND PRACTICE, 2024-12-31) Gulpinar, Gizem; Pehlivanli, Aysel; Babaar, Zaheer Ud-DinBackgroundIn recent decades, there has been an interest in clinical pharmacy practice in T & uuml;rkiye with emerging studies in this area. Despite the recent emergence of diverse pharmacy practice studies in T & uuml;rkiye, a comprehensive assessment of overall typology of studies and impact has not been conducted thus far.ObjectivesThis systematic review aims to document and assess pharmaceutical policy and practice literature published within the last 5 years in T & uuml;rkiye. The other aim is to summarise the expected impact of published studies on policy and practice research.MethodsThe systematic review was conducted according to the guidelines described in the PRISMA Statement. A comprehensive search approach, incorporating Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) queries and free-text terms was employed to locate pertinent literature related to pharmacy practice and policy in T & uuml;rkiye. The search covered the period from January 1, 2019, to January 1, 2024, and involved electronic databases including PubMed, Medline Ovid, Scopus, ScienceDirect, Springer Link, PlosOne, and BMC.ResultsIn the final grouping, 73 articles met the inclusion criteria and were selected for this review. Among the quantitative studies, majority studies were cross-sectional survey studies. Through the rigorous thematic content analysis seven research domains were developed from the selected literature: drug utilisation and rational drug use, the emerging role of pharmacist, access to medicines and generic medicines, community pharmacy practice, pharmacovigilance/adverse drug reactions, and pharmacoeconomic studies.ConclusionsThe pharmacist role is evolving; however, several challenges remain in fully realising the potential of pharmacists. These include regulatory barriers, limited public awareness of pharmacists' expanded roles, workforce capacity issues, and the need for ongoing professional development and training. Research studies are needed in the areas of generic prescribing, medicine adherence, intervention studies in community and hospital pharmacy practice, and on pharmacoeconomics and pharmacovigilance.
