Sinai Hospital, ICES (Institute for Clincial Evaluative Sciences) | Publication | 2016-07-24 | | Antipsychotic use and hospitalization among older assisted living residents: Does risk vary by frailty status? There is emerging interest regarding whether an assessment of frailty may help to better differentiate both the potential risks as well as benefits of medications in older adults. We showed that two different approaches to defining frailty (the frailty index and physical phenotype) showed similar findings in modifying the risk of hospitalization associated with prevalent antipsychotic use among older Assisted Living residents. Not only was risk elevated among frail antipsychotic users, hospitalization risk was significantly lower for users of antipsychotics among non-frail residents.SIG2014-M1 University of Calgary, University of Massachusetts, Canadian Institute for Health Information (CIHI), ICES (Institute for Clincial Evaluative Sciences), Mt.

Statin prescribing was substantial within nursing homes, even among frail residents. After controlling for resident characteristics, the prescribing of statins was not randomly distributed across physicians. Further studies are required to evaluate the risks and benefits of statin use, and discontinuation, among nursing home residents to inform clinical practice in this setting.SIG2014-M1 University of Waterloo, Mt.

In Canada, nursing homes care for a particularly frail population of older adults. When our study findings are jointly considered with rising trends in the use of low-dose trazodone in Ontario nursing homes, our findings suggest that increased vigilance related to off-label substitution of trazodone for other psychotropic drug therapies is recommended.SIG2014-M1 ICES (Institute for Clincial Evaluative Sciences), Mt.
