Abstract:

 

Abstract:

Therapeutic Drug Monitoring aims to individualise therapeutic regimen. Computer technology has facilitated this process radically. Whereas in the 60th and 70th years of the last century linear regression of the logs of peaks and trough levels was useful at that time, nowadays Bayesian techniques has improved the process of analysing plasma samples and calculation of drug doses. But there are very few computer programmes available, and sometimes they are not really user friendly. In this workshop the participants are invited to bring their own laptop and during the workshop the computer programme MW/PHARM will be demonstrated and will be used by each participant to work with.

Teaching goals:

  • to know how to perform Therapeutic Drug Monitoring (TDM)
  • to have an overview of the programme MW/PHARM and simple use of it in practice
  • to learn the theoretical aspects of TDM

Learning objectives:

At the end of the workshop, the participants will be able to have a theoretical background of the aims of Therapeutic Drug Monitoring and will be able to perform a simple dose calculation using MW/PHARM.

Deadline extended to July 15th

Problems caused by shortages are serious, threaten patient care and require urgent action.

Help us provide an overview of the scale of the problem, as well as insights into the impact on overall patient care.

Our aim is to investigate the causes of medicine and medical device shortages in the hospital setting,  while also gathering effective solutions and best practices implemented at local, regional, and national levels.
