Development And Implementation Of An Evidence-Based Process For Scarce Resource Allocation, Richard K. Ogden Jr., Daniel L. Millspaugh, Brian O'Neal

Posters

Background: Intravenous immune globulin (IVIG) is a plasma-derived product from pooled donors. It has six FDA approved indications. It is also considered standard of care for a few other conditions in specific populations. Additionally, there is growing non-evidence-based use. Due to a global shortage, IVIG has become increasing difficult to obtain.

. . . .

Conclusions: Development, implementation, and promotion of adherence to an evidence-based criterion allowed our scarce IVIG supply to be sustained. Further refinement of the criteria for use is ongoing, as is an evaluation of IVIG utilization by indication, pre- and post-implementation. This process can be applied …

• The use of very high dose furosemide continuous infusions at Thomas Jefferson University Hospital is a rare practice. These infusions range in dose from 40-240 mg/hour, with no limitation on the duration
• The purpose of this study is to examine the efficacy and safety of very high dose furosemide continuous infusions

Assessing The Use Of Pre-Treatment Medications In The Management Of Infusion-Related Reactions In An Outpatient Infusion Center, Alyssa Boesche, Alyssa Augst, Bill Kuhlman

Pharmacy Posters

Introduction

• Infusion-related reactions (IRRs) are well-known adverse drug reactions of many biological agents and antineoplastic medications
• While typically mild-to-moderate in intensity, IRRs can be severe, with potentially life-threatening consequences requiring urgent interventions
• Appropriate use of pre-treatment medications, such as corticosteroids, antihistamines, intravenous fluids, and antiemetics reduces the incidence and severity of IRRs

Purpose

• Evaluate the use of pre-treatment medications in patients with experienced IRRs at an outpatient infusion center
• Identify opportunities to improve treatment plans and reduce the occurrence of IRRs
