Abstract
OBJECTIVES: Prioritization of patients requiring pharmaceutical intervention is critical given limited resources. Data from pharmacy software could be used to target patients. This retrospective cross-sectional study aimed to describe the method implemented in a hospital care unit to prioritize hospitalized patients and compare the characteristics of those receiving a pharmaceutical intervention and those not. This study also explored the possibility of predicting an intervention using pharmacy software data.
