OBJECTIVE: Prescription appropriateness and quality of prescribing is a serious concern in geriatric care. This study aims on the development and validation of a clinical tool to assess the quality and appropriateness of geriatric prescriptions.
MATERIAL AND METHODS: Study population comprised of hospitalized older adults. The tool development followed item selection, defining the need for each item, drafting, Delphi analysis, pre-testing and validation. The tool was tested for Feasibility, Validity and Reliability during validation.
RESULTS: The tool comprised of assessing Prescribing information, Quality indicators, Drug use indicators, Cost indictors, Morbidity indicators. The Prescription Quality Assessment Tool (PQATG) was found to be feasible after pre-testing. Content validity ratio=0.6, with sum of CVI was 16.082. Construct validity test produced significant correlation and intra-class correlation coefficient indicated moderate reliability.
CONCLUSION: The prescription quality assessment tool for geriatrics is feasible, reliable, valid and novel tool for evaluating the quality of geriatric prescriptions.
