  1. NEISS-Cooperative Adverse Drug Event Surveillance (NEISS-CADES) Dan Budnitz, MD, MPH CDC Injury Center August 11, 2004 TM

  2. Overview • Early Results • Updates • To simplify case identification • To speed reporting • Example Cases • Discussion

  3. Early results are generating much interest!

  4. To Date • Pilot Study submitted to Annals of Emergency Medicine • Food and Drug Administration (FDA) interest and support • Over 8,000 ADE cases reported = about ½ million estimated cases *

  5. Preliminary Findings

  6. Site Visits • About 50% of cases not reported * • <50% cases of hypoglycemia from diabetes drugs (insulin) ** • <50% cases of bleeding from blood thinners (coumadin / warfarin) **

  7. Site Visit Feedback • About 50% of cases not reported * • <50% cases of hypoglycemia from diabetes drugs (insulin) ** • <50% cases of bleeding from blood thinners (coumadin / warfarin) ** • Simplify case identification • Streamline case reporting

  8. Updates:To simplify case finding

  9. A. Definition is on the computer:

  10. Adverse Drug Events Include • Side Effects • Allergic Reactions • Medication Errors • Accidental Ingestions (children) • Unintended Overdoses / High Levels of Medications (adults)

  11. Do NOT Report • Alcohol intoxication • Using illegal drugs • Drug abuse / “recreational” use • Suicidal / Intentional Overdoses • Drugs given during this ED visit

  12. “Drugs” Include • Prescription Medications • OTC Medications • Medicated Creams / Ointments • Vaccinations / Immunizations • Vitamins • Herbals / Nutritional Supplements

  13. Recall the “Three Tips” from the handbook?Now simplified

  14. ADEs can look like Illnesses • Medical conditions • (hypoglycemia, GI bleed, dermatitis) • Symptoms “linked to” drugs • (nausea, abdominal pain, dizziness) • Asymptomatic “errors” • (child ingesting pills, high drug levels in adults) • Poisonings / Toxicity / Overdoses

  15. Examples • Lower GI bleed and high PT/INR. Hyperprothrombinemia due to coumadin. • Rash on the back after taking amoxicillin • Abdominal pain, n&v 2° to antibiotics • Infant got into meds in Grandma’s purse. Four pills missing. Ingestion.

  16. The Three Tips • Start with the Diagnosis/Assessment section • Look for the Key Words that link a drug to an injury • Look for Certain Symptoms which may be linked to drugs

  17. #1 – Review the Diagnoses Diagnosis / Assessment Every Diagnosis Discharge Instructions Chief Complaint Other Sections Logbook

  18. #2 - Look For Key Words • Allergic reaction • Adverse reaction • Side-effect (s/e) • Secondary to (2° to, due to, related to) • Ingestion (poisoning) • Toxicity (overdose, supra-therapeutic level)

  19. #3 - Look for Suspicious Symptoms • Angioedema (face/lip/throat swelling) • Anaphylaxis (severe allergy) • Rash (urticaria, dermatitis) • Bleeding • (GI Bleed, hematemesis, epistaxis hypocoaguability, high INR/PT) • Hypoglycemia (low blood sugar)

  20. Updates:To ease reporting

  21. Fewer “Unneeded” 2nd Screens • New “Illegal Drug” Code (#1939) • Cocaine / Crack • Heroin • Marijuana • PCP • Hallucinogens • ADE second screen will NOT appear

  22. Fewer Fields on 2nd Screen • FEWER Required Fields • Dosage, Route, and Duration - optional • Fill these fields out only if the information is available • Reason, Diagnosis, Drug Name, Testing, and Treatments are still required • NO more “Allergy” Questions

  23. ADE Identification & Reporting on 1 page

  24. Identifying and Reporting Adverse Drug Events START STOP! Do not fill out ADE Screen • 1.Look in Diagnosis Section of chart: • Do diagnoses include key words? • Allergic reaction • Adverse reaction • Side-effect (s/e) • Secondary to (2° to, due to, related to) • Ingestion (poisoning) • Toxicity (overdose, supra-therapeutic level) • Or suspicious symptoms? • Angioedema (face/lip/throat swelling) • Anaphylaxis (severe allergy) • Rash (urticaria, dermatitis) • Bleeding (GI Bleed, hematemesis, epistaxis • hypocoaguability, high INR/PT) • Hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) NO 2. Is a Drug involved? Drugs include: prescription meds, over-the-counter meds, vaccines, vitamins, & dietary supplements. YES • 4.Fill out ADE Screen: • Record ED chart DIAGNOSIS • word for word • Record drug name(s) • If available, record dose, route, • frequency, and duration • Record reason for visit, testing, • and treatments • Record any other information • (e.g., discharge instructions or • medication error information) YES • 3.Is there evidence of: • Self-harm / Suicide? • Intentional overdose? • Abuse / Recreational use? NO NO YES STOP! Do not fill out ADE Screen FINISH
