| Resumen: | BackgroundATDOM is the Catalan home healthcare program at primary care level. Patients in the home care program are usually frail, elderly people with multiple comorbidities. They are often polymedicated, leading to a high risk of drug-related problems (DRPs). Our hypothesis is that the pharmacist-led individualized review of the pharmacotherapeutic plans of ATDOM patients will be effective in improving the quality of treatments by reducing DRPs in terms of indication, adequacy, effectiveness, and safety.MethodsAim: To compare the effectiveness of a standardized pharmaceutical intervention for the review and optimization of pharmacological treatments in ATDOM patients with usual management practice.Design: Pragmatic randomized clinical trial with a comparable control group, with prospective follow-up regarding the intervention on the adequacy of the pharmacological treatment of patients in the ATDOM program.Setting: Primary care teams in the Camp de Tarragona Primary Care Area, Tarragona, Spain.Participants: Four hundred and thirty-two ATDOM patients will be recruited, those who are over 65 years old and who are currently undergoing pharmacological treatment.Measures: Effectiveness of a six-month long intervention in reducing DRPs per patient and polypharmacy. Additionally, in the intervention group we will evaluate the implementation of the proposals for change or improvement made by the responsible physician.Analysis: The outcomes will be analyzed on an intent-to-treat basis and the analysis units will be the individual patients. Logistic regression and linear regression models will be used to evaluate the effects of the intervention on dichotomous and continuous variables versus the control arm.Ethics: The protocol was approved by the Research Ethics Committee of the Jordi Gol Primary Care Research Institute (IDIAPJGol), Barcelona, (19/141-P).MethodsAim: To compare the effectiveness of a standardized pharmaceutical intervention for the review and optimization of pharmacological treatments in ATDOM patients with usual management practice.Design: Pragmatic randomized clinical trial with a comparable control group, with prospective follow-up regarding the intervention on the adequacy of the pharmacological treatment of patients in the ATDOM program.Setting: Primary care teams in the Camp de Tarragona Primary Care Area, Tarragona, Spain.Participants: Four hundred and thirty-two ATDOM patients will be recruited, those who are over 65 years old and who are currently undergoing pharmacological treatment.Measures: Effectiveness of a six-month long intervention in reducing DRPs per patient and polypharmacy.

It could be extended to all ATDOM patients or outpatients in general. Interdisciplinary teamwork could be strengthened as a result, which would improve the healthcare continuum.Trial registrationRetrospectively registered.
