To address this, a provider training on motivational interviewing and pain management is incorporated into the care process. Providers then use motivational interviewing skills in patient care. Pharmacists and pharmacy interns also engage patients every few weeks to discuss and motivate patients in achieving pain management goals using a unique technology platform by InXite.
Project: Use of protein-based molecules including monoclonal antibodies aimed at promoting a balanced approach to blood vessel survival in patients with vascular impairments
创新者:罗科·罗特罗博士.D.
描述: Current therapies target unique vascular growth factor ligands through trapping or sequestering away from their native receptors, such as Eylea (Regeneron Pharmaceuticals), that binds vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and reduce capillary leak in various eye disorders like age-related macular degeneration. The goal of these kinds of therapy is to reduce leaky vessels and promote stabilization and vessel intactness.
Project: Clinical pharmacist 服务 in ambulatory care setting: Patients' and providers' satisfaction and impact on patient clinical outcomes
创新者胡安妮塔·德莱姆，药剂师.D.
