Qualitätsindikatoren zur Bewertung von Medikationsanalysen in öffentlichen Apotheken
Abstract
Background Medication reviews conducted in community pharmacies are a measure to reduce drug-related problems and to increase medication safety. Since 2014, a guideline for medication reviews has been available in Germany. However, the sole existence of a guideline does not guarantee a high quality of this novel service. Quality indicators can contribute to ensure appropriate quality standards. So far, no such indicators have been available in Germany. This project therefore aims at developing suitable indicators to assess the quality of medication reviews type 2a in community pharmacies. Methods Based on a literature review, potential quality indicators were generated. Using a two-step Delphi method applying the RUMBA criteria, a set of structure, process, and outcome indicators was developed. Results The literature review identified 23 potential indicators. Nine further indicators derived from the guideline for medication reviews and expert opinion were amended. After discussion in a focus group, the 32 indicators were reduced to a preliminary set of twelve indicators used for the Delphi survey. Following two Delphi rounds, a final indicator set consisting of three structure indicators, one process indicator and two outcome indicators, was generated. Discussion The set of quality indicators is potentially suitable for measuring the quality of medication reviews in German community pharmacies. In the next step, these indicators need to be evaluated with regard to their validity and applicability in daily routine.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
