SELF MEDICATION PRACTICES FOR ORAL HEALTH PROBLEMS AMONG DENTAL PATIENTS IN B...iosrphr_editor
Introduction: Self‑ medication is commonly practiced all over the world. Self-medication is defined as the use
of medication by a patient on his own initiative or on the advice of a pharmacist or a lay person instead of
consulting a medical practitioner. The present study was aimed to estimate the prevalence of self-medication for
oral health problems among dental patients in Bengaluru city; to identify triggering factors that could influence
self-medication practices; to identify sources of medications used; to identify sources of information about
medications used; and to identify reasons for self-medication.Study Design: A Cross sectional Study.Methods:A
survey was conducted among 175 subjects among dental patients in Bengaluru city. Data were collected
through a specially designed proforma using a closed‑ ended, self‑ administered questionnaire containing 15
questions, in five sections.
Results: The prevalence of

Article ‘Reducing Behavioral Inpatient Readmissions for People with Substance Use Disorders: Do Follow-up Services Matter’ is written by Reif, S., Acevedo, A., Garnick, D. W., & Fullerton, C. A. (2017) and they have evaluated the effectiveness of the follow-up which extended for the period of fourteen days among the people who had a problem of substance abuse and this follow-up took place after the discharge from the hospital. It has been found out that readmission is common among the patients having the problem of substance abuse which is major because of the lack of any kind of subsequent communication between the patients and doctors after their discharge.
Background of Study
The research question in the article aims at evaluating the effectiveness of the services provided in the follow-up sessions. The article ‘Inpatient Addiction Consultation for Hospitalized Patients Increases Post-Discharge Abstinence and Reduces Addiction Severity’ is written by Wakeman, S. E., Metlay, J. P., Chang, Y., Herman, G. E., & Rigotti, N. A. (2017) in which they assessed the impact of the hospital-based intervention among people who had a problem of drug use and alcohol use during their hospital visits. People suffering from substance abuse a mostly taken care of in the general medical setting. The hospital-based intervention for such patients also included the addiction consultation in the inpatient setting and research has shown that such interventions can improve the outcomes. The interventions which include the consultation and follow-up settings are usually performed by the nurses who significantly increase the value of their profession and they are given more responsibility that becomes beneficial for them. My research question is as follows:
“In mental health patients with substance use disorders (P), does treatment, (I) as compared to non-treatment, (C), reduce readmissions, (O) within 90 days?”
The effectiveness of the intervention treatment in the patients with substance abuse will be evaluated in my research study and the hypothesis states that such intervention can reduce the chances of readmission back to the hospitals among the patients with the problem of drug and alcohol abuse. Addiction is the worst thing and once people get addicted, it becomes harder for them to leave their dependence and stay clean even when they are given the medical and hospital interventions. It has been found out that lack of medical co ...
SLC CME- Evidence based medicine 07/27/2007cddirks
Saint Luke's Care, a quality improvement organization within Saint Luke's Health System, presents a CME presentation by Dr. Brent Beasley on Evidence Based Medical Care.
Primary medical care settings are ideal for treating chronic illnesses but are underutilized venues for addressing this particular chronic disease. Addiction treatment specialists are too few and many patients find this path to be unacceptable. The question becomes: how to get primary care medical providers to integrate the treatment of patients with opioid use disorders into their practices?
Different ways to accomplish this were the topic of the Louis Kolodner Memorial Lecture at MedChi for the second year in a row. Last year, Dr. Michael Fingerhood described the model that he has developed at Johns Hopkins Medicine. This year, Dr. Richard Schottenfeld, now the Chief of Psychiatry at Howard University, presented research studies done by Yale University and other centers. These studies demonstrated four successful interventions:
Methadone given to already stabilized opioid addiction patients in a primary care setting instead of a specialized opioid treatment program (OTP)
Buprenorphine along with medical counseling given in a primary care setting
An initial dose of buprenorphine given in a hospital emergency department along with a next-day follow up appointment for ongoing treatment
Injectable naltrexone, although more difficult to initiate for patients than was buprenorphine, was effective for those patients who were able to start it
Two barriers that needed to be reduced to achieve these successes were the disinclination of providers to use these medications and general pessimism about the prognosis of opioid use disorders. My hope is that as more successes are demonstrated, these barriers will slowly be lowered. For those interested in more details about these studies, I invite you to access the lecture slides, available here.

This presentation, created by Syed Faiz ul Hassan, explores the profound influence of media on public perception and behavior. It delves into the evolution of media from oral traditions to modern digital and social media platforms. Key topics include the role of media in information propagation, socialization, crisis awareness, globalization, and education. The presentation also examines media influence through agenda setting, propaganda, and manipulative techniques used by advertisers and marketers. Furthermore, it highlights the impact of surveillance enabled by media technologies on personal behavior and preferences. Through this comprehensive overview, the presentation aims to shed light on how media shapes collective consciousness and public opinion.

2. Problem and Objectives
Background
• How can personal health records (PHRs) assist adults with long term conditions
improve their medication adherence? What do we know so far?
• How can we:
1. …optimise the PHR technology to fit patient personalities and improve
medication adherence?
2. …use wearable technologies with PHRs to assist medication adherence?
3. …make PHRs more usable for adults with long term conditions?

adherence: “the
extent to which a
person’s behaviour
towards their
treatment, agrees with
suggestions from a
clinician”
Polypharmacy: “the
prescribing of multiple

of medication to one
individual”
“50% of PHR providers
do not have any
medication adherence
functionality
embedded in their
systems”

Future Work
a) b)
• Cochrane GRADE system and the CASP
checklists will be combined for quality
assessment and risk of bias analysis.
• The databases searches include keywords
such as PHR, polypharmacy, adults,
chronic condition and medication
adherence.
• Narrative synthesis of known ways that
the PHR are used to assist chronically ill
patients with medication adherence.
This literature review will provide a reference background in evaluation of the
electronic PHR, to support medicines optimisation and improving shared
understanding for patients and practitioners.
