Robyn Tamblyn,Réjean Laprise,James A. Hanley,M. Abrahamowicz,Susan C. Scott,Nancy E. Mayo,Jerry Hurley,Roland Grad,Eric Latimer,Robert Perreault,Peter J. McLeod,Allen Huang,Pierre Larochelle,Louise Mallet +13 more
TL;DR: Increased cost-sharing for prescription drugs in elderly persons and welfare recipients was followed by reductions in use of essential drugs and a higher rate of serious adverse events and ED visits associated with these reductions.
Journal Article
The medical office of the 21st century (MOXXI): effectiveness of computerized decision-making support in reducing inappropriate prescribing in primary care
Robyn Tamblyn,Allen Huang,Robert Perreault,André Jacques,Denis Roy,James A. Hanley,Peter J. McLeod,Réjean Laprise +7 more
TL;DR: Computer-based access to complete drug profiles and alerts about potential prescribing problems reduces the rate of initiation of potentially inappropriate prescriptions but has a more selective effect on the discontinuation of such prescriptions.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Development and Evaluation of an Integrated Electronic Prescribing and Drug Management System for Primary Care
Robyn Tamblyn,Allen Huang,Yuko Kawasumi,Gillian Bartlett,Roland Grad,André Jacques,Martin Dawes,Michal Abrahamowicz,Robert Perreault,Laurel Taylor,Nancy Winslade,Lise Poissant,Alain Pinsonneault +12 more
TL;DR: Primary care physicians believed an integrated electronic prescribing and drug management system would improve continuity of care, and they were more likely to use the system for patients with more complex, fragmented care.
Journal ArticleDOI
A randomized trial of the effectiveness of on-demand versus computer-triggered drug decision support in primary care.
Robyn Tamblyn,Allen Huang,Laurel Taylor,Yuko Kawasumi,Gillian Bartlett,Roland Grad,André Jacques,Martin Dawes,Michal Abrahamowicz,Robert Perreault,Nancy Winslade,Lise Poissant,Alain Pinsonneault +12 more
TL;DR: Customization of computer-triggered alert systems is more useful in detecting and resolving prescribing problems than on-demand review, but neither approach was effective in reducing prescribing problems.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effectiveness of web-based asthma self-management system, my asthma portal (MAP): A pilot randomized controlled trial
Sara Ahmed,Pierre Ernst,Susan J. Bartlett,Marie-France Valois,Tasneem Zaihra,Guy Paré,Roland Grad,Owis Eilayyan,Robert Perreault,Robyn Tamblyn +9 more
TL;DR: This study supported the use of MAP to enhance asthma quality of life but not asthma control as measured by an administrative database, and implemented tailored protocols for monitoring symptoms and health behaviors as individuals’ knowledge and self-management skills improve may result in long-term gains in asthma control.
