UNIVERSITY OF AMSTERDAM MASTERS THESIS Impact of Medication Grouping on Fall Risk Prediction in Elders: A Retrospective Analysis of MIMIC-III Critical Care Database Student: SRP Mentor: Noman Dormosh Dr. Martijn C. 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. -

The Effect of Bromepheniramine on Cough Sensitivity in Normal Volunteers
THE EFFECT OF BROMPHENIRAMINE ON COUGH SENSITIVITY IN HEALTHY VOLUNTEERS Haytham M. El-Khushman MD* ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate the anti-tussive effect of brompheniramine maleate a non-selective, sedative antihistamine using capsaicin challenge. Methods: Twelve subjects, five females and seven females, mean age 32 years with a range of (23-39) years, were studied on two occasions. On the two visits a baseline capsaicin dose-response was performed to determine C5 (the lowest concentration causing 5 coughs). After 30 minutes two C5 doses of capsaicin were given and the total cough over one minute was counted. On the first visit Brompheniramine 8mg or a matched placebo was given orally, and 120, 240 minutes after administration, two C5 doses of capsaicin were given and the total coughs over one minute period were counted. This was repeated exactly in the second visit except subjects received either a placebo or active treatment; either which they had not received on their first visit. Subjects were also asked to quantify their drowsiness using a 100 mm visual analogue scale. Results: Baseline mean cough number (confidence interval) was similar on the two study occasions 9.9 (8.2-11.7) before Brompheniramine and 9.2 (7.3-11.1) before placebo. Cough number did not differ on the two study days at 120 and 240 min after Brompheniramine treatment: 7.7 (5.5-9.8), 7.4 (5.1-9.6) compared to 8.7 (6.4-11.0), 8.3 (6.8- 9.8) after placebo. Mean visual analogue scale (confidence interval) after Brompheniramine was 31 (14-48) and 40 (21-60) compared to 7 (2-12) and 7 (2-12) after Placebo at 120 and 240 min respectively (p<0.008). -
Medicare Part D Excluded Drug List

The FDA is unable to provide regulatory status determinations through their regular processes if a drug product is not properly listed. Therefore, Part D sponsors should begin the drug coverage determination process by confirming that a prescription drug product national drug code (NDC) is properly listed with the FDA.

If healthcare professionals fail to detect coughs induced by an ACEI, patients are at risk of getting antitussives inappropriately instead of discontinuing ACEI. The purpose of this study was to examine how the initiation of ACEI affects the likelihood of antitussive uses compared with the initiation of Angiotensin Receptor Blocker (ARB) and to determine the effect of the antitussive use on the duration and adherence of therapy in a Korean population.
