Abstract:
Tohoku Medical and Pharmaceutical University Hospital uses an information form created by doctors and pharmacists to provide postoperative information to patients who undergo nephrectomy at the Department of Urology. The form recommends that patients' physicians change prescriptions and adjust medication doses considering post-nephrectomy deterioration of renal function in patients with a single remaining kidney. Of the 7 patients who used this information form, prescription changes were made in 4 patients. An information form jointly created by a physician and pharmacist may affect prescription changes.
