ABSTRACT
Introduction. Pharmacovigilance development is still limited in
Mexico. It is mandatory for hospital setting since 2005 and its relevancy
has been exhibited.
Objective. Describe pharmacovigilance
methods for application of its results in continuous improvement
of healthcare and for patient safety.
Material and methods.
Pharmacovigilance basic tool is spontaneous reporting of adverse
drug reactions (ADRs), although diverse descriptive, analytical and
special models are available. It will be shown the potential usefulness
of a case series collected from January to December 2010.
Results. We received 171 reports including 229 ADRs, 61.13% of
female gender, mean age 46.9 ± 19.6 years. Notifications were
informed by physicians in 15.7% of our cases, and by pharmacists in
80%. Common source medical specialties were: Oncology, Internal
Medicine and Gastroenterology. Pharmacological related groups,
according ATC were: anti-infective agents 19.6%, antineoplastics
13.3%, corticosteroids 11.17%, opioids 7.4%, contrast media 6.9%.
Affected organs and systems were: skin 29.7%, gastrointestinal
15.28%, central nervous system 13.1%, cardiovascular 7.9%, endocrine
7.4%. Causality assessments were probable 75.1%, defined
4% and possible 20.9%. There were 47.16% moderate ADRs, 33.18%
severe and 19.21% mild reactions. All moderate and severe ADRs
needed some intervention for relieving. We detected 16/229 (7%)
ADRs related to medication errors, 10 were generated outside the
hospital. All were solved without harm.
Conclusions. Pharmacovigilance
in hospital setting has a valuable and immediate application
through simple case series with high impact in patient safety
and prevention of medication risks.
