Optimizing Imaging Procedures through Medication Management

This study investigates the impact of pharmacist-radiologist collaboration on optimizing imaging procedures through medication management in a tertiary hospital setting. A quasi-experimental design with 200 patients was employed, divided into an intervention group (pharmacist involvement) and a control group (standard care). The results demonstrated a significant reduction in adverse reactions (5% vs. 15%), improved imaging quality scores (mean 4.5 vs. 3.8), and higher patient compliance with preparation instructions (90% vs. 75%) in the intervention group. These findings underscore the value of pharmacist involvement in enhancing patient safety, imaging quality, and adherence to preparation protocols, ultimately contributing to more efficient healthcare delivery.

Abstract

This study investigates the impact of pharmacist-radiologist collaboration on optimizing imaging procedures through medication management in a tertiary hospital setting. A quasi-experimental design with 200 patients was employed, divided into an intervention group (pharmacist involvement) and a control group (standard care). The results demonstrated a significant reduction in adverse reactions (5% vs. 15%), improved imaging quality scores (mean 4.5 vs. 3.8), and higher patient compliance with preparation instructions (90% vs. 75%) in the intervention group. These findings underscore the value of pharmacist involvement in enhancing patient safety, imaging quality, and adherence to preparation protocols, ultimately contributing to more efficient healthcare delivery.
