Feasibility of laboratory monitoring in community pharmacies by Point-Of-Care testing creatinine and potassium in ambulatory elderly at risk for impaired renal function.
The main aim is to develop an intervention to change knowledge, communication and attitudes regarding renal replacement therapy (RRT). The second main aim is to investigate whether this intervention has an impact on the proportion of patients…
To investigate if a dosage advice for darbepoetin and iron generated by a pharmacist leads to an increase of haemodialysis patients whose haemoglobin values lie within the target range, compared to dosage of darbepoetin by the nephrologist alone.
1.1 What are the self-perceived symptoms and care needs of patients with moderate to very severe COPD, CHF or CRF and to what extent do they differ from each other?1.2 Do these self-perceived symptoms and care needs relate to patients* daily…
