| Abstract: | A poster presentation regarding patient outcomes on biomarkers after community pharmacist intervention. Introduction: Chronic diseases present a number of challenges on healthcare systems worldwide. In Malta, community pharmacists are in an optimal position to follow up patients with chronic conditions since patients register with a pharmacy of their choice. Pharmacists can participate more actively in chronic disease care through patient monitoring and medication management. Aim: To evaluate the impact of a pharmacist-led chronic disease management service within a community pharmacy setting. The objectives were to identify the occurrence of drug-related problems (DRPs) in patients with chronic conditions and assess the pharmacist intervention on patient health outcomes. |
