Schut Student No. 11412682 – SRP Tutor: Prof. dr. Ameen Abu-Hanna SRP Address: Amsterdam University Medical Center - Location AMC Department Medical Informatics Meibergdreef 9, 1105 AZ Amsterdam Practice teaching period: November 2018 - June 2019 A thesis submitted in fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Medical Informatics iii Abstract Background: Falls are the leading cause of injury in elderly patients. Risk factors for falls in- cluding among others history of falls, old age, and female gender. Research studies have also linked certain medications with an increased risk of fall in what is called fall-risk-increasing drugs (FRIDs), such as psychotropics and cardiovascular drugs. However, there is a lack of consistency in the definitions of FRIDs between the studies and many studies did not use any systematic classification for medications. Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of grouping medications at different levels of granularity of a medication classification system on the performance of fall risk prediction models. Methods: This is a retrospective analysis of the MIMIC-III cohort database. We created seven prediction models including demographic, comorbidity and medication variables. Medica- tions were grouped using the anatomical therapeutic chemical classification system (ATC) starting from the most specific scope of medications and moving up to the more generic groups: one model used individual medications (ATC level 5), four models used medication grouping at levels one, two, three and four of the ATC and one model did not include med- ications.

Bushinsky1 1Division of Nephrology, Department of Medicine, University of Rochester School of Medicine and Dentistry, Rochester, New York; 2Litholink Corporation, Laboratory Corporation of America Holdings, Chicago, Illinois; 3Department of Biostatistics and Computational Biology, University of Rochester School of Medicine, Rochester, New York; and 4Lunenfeld-Tanenbaum Research Institute, Mount Sinai Hospital, Toronto, Ontario, Canada ABSTRACT Background The pathophysiology of genetic hypercalciuric stone-forming rats parallels that of human idiopathic hypercalciuria. In this model, all animals form calcium phosphate stones. We previously found that chlorthalidone, but not potassium citrate, decreased stone formation in these rats. Methods To test whether chlorthalidone and potassium citrate combined would reduce calcium phos- phate stone formation more than either medication alone, four groups of rats were fed a fixed amount of a normal calcium and phosphorus diet, supplemented with potassium chloride (as control), potassium citrate, chlorthalidone (with potassium chloride to equalize potassium intake), or potassium citrate plus chlorthalidone. We measured urine every 6 weeks and assessed stone formation and bone quality at 18 weeks. Results Potassium citrate reduced urine calcium compared with controls, chlorthalidone reduced it fur- ther, and potassium citrate plus chlorthalidone reduced it even more. Chlorthalidone increased urine citrate and potassium citrate increased it even more; the combination did not increase it further.

Bowel preparation (cleansing) is needed to perform a high-quality colonoscopy. Any stool remaining in the colon can hide important findings and result in the need to repeat the procedure. It is critical that you follow the instructions as directed. It is important that you follow the prep instructions as below, and not those located on the prep kit packaging. Prior to and during the procedure you will receive sedation (unless you request otherwise) through and IV. The sedation interferes with forming memories, so most patients do not even remember the procedure. Your physician will discuss any findings of your procedure with you in the recovery room. If biopsies are taken or polyps removed, you will receive a letter or MyChart message in 2-3 weeks detailing the final results and recommendations. If your results require a change in your current treatment plan, you may receive a phone call from the office. We make every effort to keep your appointment at the scheduled time, however unexpected delays may occur and your wait time prolonged. Please note that you may be asked to come in earlier than your scheduled time to accommodate changes that occur in the schedule.

  • Magnesium Citrate Preparation
    Division of Gastroenterology COLONOSCOPY PREPARATION INSTRUCTIONS Magnesium Citrate Preparation WHAT IS A COLONOSCOPY? • Your physician has recommended that you have a colonoscopy. This test is a visual examination of the lining of the large intestine. During the test, a colonoscope, which is a long, flexible instrument that has a light and a camera at the tip, will be passed through the rectum and around the colon. Your doctor will view the colonoscopy on a television screen and look for any abnormalities that may be present. • Colonoscopy usually is performed to evaluate and treat colon cancer, polyps, gastrointestinal bleeding and diarrhea. If necessary, biopsies (tiny tissue samples) may be taken painlessly during the examination and sent for laboratory analysis. Polyps (abnormal growths of tissue) also may be removed and bleeding areas may be identified and treated. PREPARING FOR A COLONOSCOPY Food and Drink • In order for your doctor to perform an adequate and safe examination, the colon must be clear. You will be given a laxative solution to drink prior to the examination. Follow the instructions carefully. • You should be on a modified diet the entire day before your colonoscopy. You may continue to have clear fluids the day of your procedure, up to three (3) hours prior to your examination. A clear fluid diet includes jello, coffee (please do not add milk), tea (please do not add milk), soft drinks, ices, clear soups, sports drinks such as Gatorade or Powerade and apple or white grape juice. Please avoid red or purple drinks, jello or popsicles for the 24 hours prior to the examination.

  • Liquid Cal/Mag/D
    PRODUCT DATA DOUGLAS LABORATORIES® 03/2013 1 Liquid Cal/Mag/D DESCRIPTION Liquid Cal/Mag/D by Douglas Laboratories provides the essential nutrients for bone health, which include calcium and magnesium in a 2:1 ratio and vitamin D3 in a great-tasting raspberry-flavored liquid, sweetened naturally with organic stevia and xylitol. FUNCTIONS The adult human body holds about 99% of all calcium and about 60% of magnesium in the skeleton. The remaining 1% of total body calcium and 40% of total body magnesium are found in the soft tissues and play important roles in such vital functions as nerve conduction, muscle contraction, energy metabolism, blood clotting, membrane permeability, and hormonal signaling. Blood calcium levels are carefully maintained within very narrow limits by the interplay of several hormones, including 1,25-dihydroxy-cholecalciferol, which control calcium absorption and excretion, as well as bone metabolism. The intracellular levels of magnesium are also very tightly regulated, since their alterations can have profound effects on cardiac and skeletal muscle physiology. Bone is constantly turning over, a continuous process of formation and resorption. In children and adolescents, the rate of formation of bone mineral predominates over the rate of resorption. In later life, resorption predominates over formation. Therefore, in normal aging, there is a gradual loss of bone. It is generally accepted that obtaining enough dietary calcium, magnesium, and vitamin D throughout life can significantly support optimal bone health. Vitamin D is a key regulatory hormone for calcium and bone metabolism. Adequate vitamin D status is essential for ensuring normal calcium absorption and maintenance of healthy calcium plasma levels.
