First seen Nov 21, 2025 · Last updated May 17, 2026 · Updated 25 times
Summary
This study tested whether having a clinical pharmacist work with doctors in two hospital units (infectious disease and internal medicine) could improve the quality of care and lower costs. The researchers tracked medication errors, how well prescriptions matched best practices, and overall spending. 500 adult patients took part, and the goal was to see if this approach, already common in some countries, works well in a French hospital.
