Brief Summary:
This randomized controlled pragmatic study is aimed to set-up, assess and implement an integrated e-learning program of medical education in an hospital setting, focused on teaching and implementing CGA added to geriatric pharmacological notions (GPNs) to improve the quality of drug prescribing in elderly patients
Detailed Description:
The integrated e-learning program (intervention group) is focused on teaching and implementing knowledge on CGA and GPNs to help clinicians to improve the quality of drug prescribing in the elderly.The GPNs is focused on pharmaco-epidemiological issues of drug prescribing, pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic changes during aging, topics in evaluating and managing polypharmacy, criteria to review the appropriateness of drug therapies and the clinical relevance of PDDI in the elderly. The control group receives only GPNs.
