To fully understand the discussion regarding drotrecogin alfa, Paul and I review the mechanism of action and its proposed action in the treatment of sepsis. Then we review earlier studies and the controversy behind the FDA approval process. Finally, we go into detail on what Clinical Pharmacists were tasked with doing at the time based on treatment protocols or hospital restrictions. Then we dive into the Trial of the Week, discussing the study design and results. What was the mood in ICUs and Pharmacy Departments after this publication? How much did our sepsis care improve from PROWESS to PROWESS-SHOCK? What lessons did we learn with the Xigris FDA approval process? Is there a patient population that could still benefit from drotrecogin alfa treatment? Plus, trial fun facts, issues with calculating APACHE II scores, and so much more.

Trials of the Week: Landmark Nimodipine Studies Special Guest: Salia Farrokh, PharmD, BCCCP, FNCS @salia_farrokh   Salia Farrokh joins to highlight two landmark studies with nimodipine, “Cerebral Arterial Spasm – A Controlled Trial of Nimodipine in Patients with Subarachnoid Hemorrhage” published in NEJM in 1983 and “Effect of Oral Nimodipine on Cerebral Infarction and Outcome after Subarachnoid Hemorrhage: British Aneurysm Nimodipine Trial” published in 1989 in BMJ. We review aSAH treatments in the 1970's and 1980's and what evidence existed for nimodipine use before highlighting our two trials of the week. How does the study methodology compare from then to now? Where did our nimodipine dosing regimen come from? Is the term cerebral artery vasospasm out of date? Is it still appropriate to use evidence from the 1980's in the 2020's? Is there more to research with respect to nimodipine? What to do with missed nimodipine doses? We do a deep dive into all things nimodipine for aSAH, discussing the above and much more.   Reference list:  https://pharmacytodose.files.wordpress.com/2024/04/nimodipine-trial-of-the-week-references.pdf   PharmacyToDose.Com @PharmacyToDose PharmacyToDose@Gmail.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Trial of the Week: REDUCE Special Guest: Matt Duprey, PharmD, PhD, BCCCP   Matt Duprey joins to discuss the March Trial of the Week, published in 2018 in JAMA: “The Effect of Haloperidol on Survival Among Critically Ill Adults with a High Risk of Delirium: the REDUCE Randomized Clinical Trial.”   We review the history of antipsychotic pharmacotherapy treatment and prophylaxis in delirium, reviewing guideline recommendations from that time. Then we dive into the Trial of the Week: REDUCE trial and discuss its findings as well as study design. Would results be the same with another medication? Why is delirium research so challenging? Prevalent v. incident delirium? What's the best outcome to measure? What questions still need answered? These questions and so much more are answered in today's episode.   Reference list:  https://pharmacytodose.files.wordpress.com/2024/03/reduce-references.pdf   PharmacyToDose.Com @PharmacyToDose PharmacyToDose@Gmail.com Learn more about your ad choices.
