An Infectious Disease Specialist, Dr Mandar Kubal Speaks to Pharma on How it ...Anup Soans
Key Point from the Q &A with Dr. Mandar Kubal, Mumbai
Telemedicine has become a very useful tool for clinicians to manage their patients.
Given the ever changing contours of Covid19 treatment, doctors have to check daily for online resources.
It would be wonderful if pharma can provide every specialty the latest developments in treating Covid19 with pre existing conditions instead of sending their unvaccinated field force to give brand reminders.
Pharma should seek frontline worker status for Medical Reps and Field Managers as they are critical to maintain the drug supply chain.
Treat the Field Force as an asset and protect them, instead of pushing them onto the field without vaccination.
And many more insights from a clinician at the frontlines of treating Covid19 patients.

Digital Health - Hypertension Case StudySatnam Bains
For Digital Health to be effective, we need more than technology. We need the right service re-design from a clinical perspective, and support for patients to improve their health literacy, and achievable goals to facilitate long term behaviour change. Only then can we enter into the realm and much sought after nirvana of preventative health. This presentation was created by the CEO of Health Fabric and a set of clinicians to share their knowledge around a case study around hypertension management.

How to Reduce Readmissions by Changing Patient EducationChuck Jones
The challenge is no longer finding the perfect medication but rather convincing the patient to take their medication as prescribed. It's no longer providing discharge instructions but educating the patient so they understand the need to follow through on behavior change to avoid repeating habits that brought them to the hospital in the first place.

Expo is the most significant annual health and social care event in the calendar, uniting more NHS and care leaders, commissioners, clinicians, voluntary sector partners, innovators and media than any other health and care event.
Expo 15 returned to Manchester and was hosted once again by NHS England. Around 5000 people a day from health and care, the voluntary sector, local government, and industry joined together at Manchester Central Convention Centre for two packed days of speakers, workshops, exhibitions and professional development.
This year, Expo was more relevant and engaging than ever before, happening within the first 100 days of the new Government, and almost 12 months after the publication of the NHS Five Year Forward View. It was also a great opportunity to check on and learn from the progress of Greater Manchester as the area prepares to take over a £6 billion devolved health and social care budget, pledging to integrate hospital, community, primary and social care and vastly improve health and well-being.

0x01 - Newton's Third Law: Static vs. Dynamic AbusersOWASP Beja
f you offer a service on the web, odds are that someone will abuse it. Be it an API, a SaaS, a PaaS, or even a static website, someone somewhere will try to figure out a way to use it to their own needs. In this talk we'll compare measures that are effective against static attackers and how to battle a dynamic attacker who adapts to your counter-measures.

OTC Medicines – Switches (what works &
what doesn’t)
Long term conditions – Challenges (Future
Model of care?)
3. Commonwealth & CPA
Commonwealth:
¼ of the worlds land area.
53 Countries
33% of the worlds population (2.3billion) 50% under age 25
60% of global HIV/AIDS cases
40% of infant deaths & 90% maternal deaths
Shared values
Different faiths, races, languages & cultures
CPA
“Empowering pharmacists to improve health and wellbeing
throughout the Commonwealth”
4. Recent Universal Goals
Millennium Development Goals 2000-2015 - 8 goals
(3 health related: Maternal health, reducing child
mortality & Combating HIV/AIDS, malaria, TB etc.
Non-Communicable Diseases – CVD, Respiratory,
Diabetes, Cancer
Universal Health Coverage Beveridge v Bismark
Model (Taxation v Insurance)
5. NCD’s - WHO Vision
VISION:
A world free of the avoidable burden of non-communicable
diseases.
GOAL:
To reduce the preventable and avoidable burden of morbidity,
mortality and disability due to non-communicable diseases by
means of multi-sectoral collaboration and cooperation at
national, regional and global levels, so that populations reach
the highest attainable standards of health and productivity
at every age and those diseases are no longer a barrier to well-
being or socioeconomic development.
6. Managing Risk of NCD’s (LTC’s)
Modifiable Behavioural Risk Factors
Tobacco
Physical inactivity
Unhealthy diet
Harmful use of alcohol
Access to medicines
Prescription Only
Pharmacy Only
GSL
Does switching categories improve access?
i. What works
ii. What doesn’t
7. Factors to consider (Personal view)
Promote:
Efficacious and affordable medicines,
Quality assured products
Education to both prescribers & consumers
What seems to work for OTC purchase:
Medicines for acute/self limiting conditions
Affordable
Short term use
What doesn’t seem to work:
Medicines for Long term conditions
Require monitoring
Require access to further information
Price sensitive
8. Success v Failure
Examples of successful
switches:
Loperamide
Ibuprofen
Clotrimazole
Ranitidine
Omeprazol
Hydrocortisone Cr
Levonorgestrel
Ulpristal acetate
Nicotine Replacement therapy
Minoxidil
Examples of less successful
Simvastatin
Pantoprazole (?)
Esomeprazol (?)
Tamsulosin
? Why
Long term condition?
Monitoring?
Information?
Price?
9. What is the prescription for a
switch?
Unmet public health need
Service development
Supporting practice change
Meaningful involvement
Investment in necessary infrastructure
Advertising
Economical model
10. Challenges – New model of care required?
Aging Population
Increasing pop with LTC’s
Multiple morbidities
Frail elderly
Increased expectation
Pressure and cost on Health systems
Primary care, Secondary care, Tertiary care
Questions
Is Community Pharmacy an underused resource?
Has Community Pharmacy the potential to fill the gap and reduce pressure
on Health Systems?
Have Community Pharmacists the skills necessary to manage LTC’s?
11. Proving a concept. Managing Long
Term Conditions in the Pharmacy
Crown Report: Review of prescribing, supply and administration of medicines. March
1999
Recommended: New groups of professionals would be able to apply for authority to
prescribe in specific clinical areas.
Two new categories of prescribers:
1. Independent Prescribers: Professionals who are responsible for the initial assessment of
the patient and for devising a broad management plan, with the authority to prescribe
the medicines required as part of that plan
2. Dependent Prescribers (Supplementary prescribers): Professionals authorised to
prescribe certain medicines for patients whose condition has been diagnosed or assessed
by an independent prescriber, within an agreed clinical management plan
Conditions
a. Clinician should have access to complete medical record.
b. Initial prescribing and supply of medicines should remain separate functions.
12. Review of patients with Hypertension and
Asthma in the Community Pharmacy
Aim of Pilot:
To establish and prove the concept that patients with
long term conditions can be effectively and safely
managed by a pharmacist independent prescriber
from a community pharmacy setting with complete
read and write access to a patients medical record.
14. Structure of Clinics
Chronic disease review clinics held in the community Pharmacy
(with remote access to GP Server/Desktop computer)
One clinic held each Saturday morning during months January
to March 2015
Three Pharmacists (2 Community Pharmacists and 1 Practice
Pharmacist)
Three GP Practices involved
Two clinical areas – Hypertension and Asthma
15. Service Outline
Service built on a history of working with GP Practice and seeking to improve
access for patients due review of a chronic condition
Appointments in the community pharmacy offered the same service as that
provided in the Pharmacist Independent Pharmacist led clinic at GP surgery:
Blood pressure assessment or Asthma assessment
Interpretation of lab results
Assessment of e.g. CV Risk, Inhaler Technique, Oxygen Saturation and
Peak Flow,
Lifestyle and Dietary advice
Full medication review to support medicines optimisation
Issue prescriptions when appropriate
Community pharmacy has a private consultation room to ensure all
consultations are private
Full remote access to the GP clinical system available from a practice
laptop. All interventions annotated on the IT system.

19. Patient Survey
Patient Survey (Carried out between Jan –Mar 2015 Total 66
In general how satisfied were you with the care you received
at the Blood Pressure Clinic in the Community Pharmacy ?
97% Very
satisfied
Did you have confidence and trust in the clinician you saw? 100% Yes
Did you receive the same level of care as you would expect to
receive from a consultation within the GP practice?
99% Yes

times suit you better due to finding it difficult to attend the
GP practice?
94% Yes
Would you be happy to continue to attend the community
pharmacy for future appointments?
97% Yes
On a scale of 1-10 how would you rate your overall experience
of attending the review clinic in the pharmacy?
91% 10/10
20. GP/Patient Feedback
GP Comment:
“The development of the Remote Access Clinics has made a huge
difference to our patients, as this offered another more accessible
option for them to attend for their review appointment.
This is especially helpful to those patients who work during the week
and are unable to attend the surgery during normal opening times.“
Patients Comments:
“Very helpful and pleasant; Great Service; Very helpful and friendly;
Quick and convenient; Excellent; I find this service invaluable and very
helpful; Consultations are very personalised”
23. Finally
“Pharmacists need to get out of the dispensary and put their
knowledge of medicines into practice…We have to base our
practice on direct patient care.“
