Increasing the reporting of adverse drug reaction‐related hospitalizations using an ICD‐10‐based identification workflow: A multicentre study from Switzerland

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background Reporting adverse drug reactions (ADRs) is essential for drug safety. In Switzerland, healthcare professionals are legally required to report serious and unlabelled ADRs, yet under‐reporting remains widespread. We tested a novel method to increase reporting of ADR‐related hospitalizations.

Impact of empiric potassium supplementation on mortality, sudden cardiac arrest and stroke in furosemide initiators

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aim A prior non‐randomized study suggests that potassium supplementation may improve survival among furosemide initiators, and a randomized trial suggests that salt substitutes containing potassium might lower stroke risk. We conducted a retrospective cohort study using health‐care data to confirm or refute these associations among new users of ...

External validation of the BAN‐ADHF diuretic‐resistance score in the DAPA‐RESIST clinical trial

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Diuretic resistance in worsening heart failure (HF) is associated with poorer outcomes and, although common, can be challenging to identify. The recently developed BAN‐ADHF score can potentially identify patients with worsening HF at risk of diuretic resistance.

Role of Diuretics and Ultrafiltration in Congestive Heart Failure

open access: yesPharmaceuticals, 2013
Volume overload in heart failure (HF) results from neurohumoral activation causing renal sodium and water retention secondary to arterial underfilling. Volume overload not only causes signs and symptoms of congestion, but can impact myocardial remodeling
