Développement du conditionnement unitaire des médicaments dans un établissement de santé (exemple du CHU de Rennes)
No full textDans le contexte actuel de sécurisation du circuit du médicament et du développement de la dispensation individuelle nominative au sein des établissements de santé, le conditionnement unitaire apparaît comme un prérequis incontournable. Beaucoup de spécialités n'existant pas en conditionnement unitaire, nombre d'établissements développent une activité de reconditionnement des médicaments. Ainsi, en 2010, le CHU de Rennes a fait l'acquisition d'un automate de conditionnement. Ce travail a consisté à établir un état des lieux de la pratique du reconditionnement des médicaments à l'hôpital. Il précise les définitions et les aspects réglementaires du reconditionnement, expliquant l'origine du projet au CHU de Rennes. Puis une revue de la littérature expose les recommandations existantes concernant la détermination d'une nouvelle date de péremption des unités reconditionnées, avant de décrire l'expérience du CHU de Rennes dans ce domaine, de l'aspect théorique à la pratique quotidienne.In the current context of quality of drug-use-process and individual dispensation at hospital, the unit-dose container appears to be inescapable. A lot of drugs do not exist in unit-dose, so hospitals develop repackaging operations. In 2010, university hospital of Rennes acquired an automated packaging. This work was to make an inventory of drug repackaged practice. It clarifies definitions and regulatory aspects of drug repackaging. A review of the literature presents recommandations about determination of expiration date and describes practical experience of university hospital of Rennes from the theorical to the practical.RENNES1-BU Santé (352382103) / SudocSudocFranceF
Remdesivir for Patients Hospitalized with COVID-19 Severe Pneumonia: A National Cohort Study (Remdeco-19)
No full textInternational audienceBackground. Given the rapidly evolving pandemic of COVID-19 in 2020, authorities focused on the repurposing of available drugs to develop timely and cost-effective therapeutic strategies. Evidence suggested the potential utility of remdesivir in the framework of an early access program. REMDECO-19 is a multicenter national cohort study assessing the ability of remdesivir to improve the outcome of patients hospitalized with COVID-19. Methods. We conducted a retrospective real-life study that included all patients from the early access program of remdesivir in France. The primary endpoint was the clinical course evolution of critically ill and hospitalized COVID-19 patients treated with remdesivir. Secondary endpoints were the SOFA score evolution within 29 days following the admission and mortality at 29 and 90 days. Results. Eighty-five patients were enrolled in 22 sites from January to April 2020. The median WHO and SOFA scores were respectively reduced by two and six points between days 1 and 29. Improvement in the WHO-CPS and the SOFA score were observed in 83.5% and 79.3% of patients, respectively, from day 10. However, there was no effect of remdesivir on the 90-day survival based on the control cohort for hospitalized COVID-19 patients with invasive ventilation. Conclusions. SOFA score appeared to be an attractive approach to assess remdesivir efficacy and stratify its utilization or not in critically ill patients with COVID-19. This study brings a new clinical benchmark for therapeutic decision making and supports the use of remdesivir for some hospitalized COVID-19 patients
