About App
The RedFastER group of the Spanish Society of Hospital Pharmacy (SEFH) has created the UrgRedFasterFH app to help pharmacists specialists working in the emergency services of hospitals.
The EVADUR study (Emergencias 2010; 22: 415-428) showed that 12% of patients visited in the emergency room suffer some type of incident or adverse effect and that the second most frequent cause is medication (37.5%) . The RedFastER group detected that 79% of patients in the emergency room present discrepancies between the medication they actually take before going to the hospital's emergency room and the one registered in the medical records. In addition, the abrupt interruption of any of the medications can cause a withdrawal syndrome, an exacerbation of the underlying pathology, worsening the patient's condition and / or complicating the acute condition that caused him to go to the emergency room or even generate a new health problem. . But also the maintenance of any of the drugs, in certain circumstances (kidney failure, liver failure, bleeding, respiratory depression, poisoning, etc.) can pose a risk to the patient, so they should be temporarily interrupted until stabilized.
