We collected sociodemographic data, medication reconciliation data, and descriptive data during a comprehensive geriatric assessment. Each patient's medication history after discharge was determined in collaboration with their usual community pharmacist. **Results:** A total of 125 patients (females 70%, mean age 87.1 years) were included. Data for the admission and discharge medication reconciliations were available for 44 patients (35%). On admission, 121 of the 125 patients (97%) were taking cardiovascular medication. Of the 336 treatments withdrawn, 61 (18.2%) had been re-prescribed at 6 months post-discharge-including half within the first month. The most frequent STOPP criterion was lack of indication (32%), and the overall PIP resumption rate was 22%. According to the anatomical therapeutic chemical (ATC) classification, the main organ system affected by PIPs was the cardiovascular system (47%, with a resumption rate of 17%). **Conclusion:** Our results highlighted a low PIP resumption rate at 6 months and showed that a collaborative medication review is associated with persistent medium-term medication changes. ===== Références de l'article ===== {{pmid>listgroup:33474671}} ---- {{page>:veille:pm:discussion:33474671&nofooter&nolink&noindent}} [[:veille:pm:discussion:33474671?do=edit|Éditer la discussion]] ---- ===== Références ===== ~~REFNOTES~~ {{page>:start_news:start_newsletter&noident&nofooter&noeditbtn}}
