The coordination of Department of Health, Executive Yuan, Taiwan, R. O. C. impetus National Reporting System of Adverse Drug Reactions (ADR) in Taiwan. Dajia Lee s General Hospital (DLGH) organized the ADR Work Team in 1999, subordinated to the Pharmacy & Therapeutics Committee (PTC), the members including doctor, pharmacist, nursing staff and the hospital management. We subscribed the ADR reporting program in order to help the pharmacovigilance and truly grasp effectiveness of reporting processing for a period of time. To report an ADR at DLGH, complete an ADR form (available on each nursing unit) and sent it to the pharmacy. An ADR can also be filed by e-mail or calling the Drug Information Center, if you have information about the patient, the reaction, the outcome, the suspected drug, and other relevant history. The panel members meet regularly, reorganize the reporting document, and perform to trace the report. The pharmacy first aimed at the suspicious reports to collect entirely and carried on the first examination. The suspected cases were further proposed to the ADR Work Team Committee to reexamine. Report significant or unexpected ADR s promptly to the Center of National Reporting System of ADR. For guarantee the drug safety and preventing the similar ADR occurs once again, we replenish the type of reaction and the medicine to this patient s medical record, and promptly inform the doctor in charge according to the monitoring program of DLGH. Additionally, the recent statistic results of ADR will be listed and as the conventional meeting report of the PTC in each time. One hundred and fifteen adverse drug reactions were voluntarily reported at DLGH from January 1999 to December 2003. A total 108 suspected cases were identified in this study. The initial reporters are most by the pharmacist, next for doctor and nursing staff. Aspirin (10 cases), acemetacin (7 cases), and diclofenac (6 cases) were the first three suspected drugs associated with drug-induced adverse reactions. The drugs most commonly involved were nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs, 31.4%), followed by antimicrobial agents (14.8%), and central nervous system (CNS) depressants (9.2%). Skin reactions are the most common type of reaction. There is no significant difference between female and male. However, 25.9% of ADR reports were found in patients older than 70 years of age. |
