PASSWORD pharmacovigilance. Yes, because when it comes to clinical risk management, drugs cannot be neglected, in fact it is often the incorrect administration that triggers the error. This is why pharmaceutical companies and white coats join hands at the II Forum Risk Management in Healthcare. In fact, the pharmaceutical one is a delicate market. «It is a sector that requires strict controls – explains the vice president of Farmindustria Emile Stefanelli – And despite the tug-of-war put in place by pharmacists committed to countering the arrival of class C drugs with a prescription required in supermarkets and parapharmacies, the drug system in Italy is of high quality».
"It is important that competition does not affect the quality that currently exists and is guaranteed in our country - continues Stefanelli - For this reason we must strengthen the relationship between pharmaceutical companies and doctors in order to report any adverse events". And among the dangers that undermine the safety of medicines in circulation, the vice president of Farmindustria recalls the internet and do-it-yourself administration as well as medicines, not always of excellent quality, produced in developing countries. Also noteworthy is the Ceis data which highlights how the purchase of insurance policies and services affects the budgets of healthcare companies by 9.8%. An unfortunately growing trend, when channeling this expense by investing in safety would mean saving money and at the same time avoiding damage to citizens. “A good 9 out of 10 complaints are resolved in favor of the doctors – he recalled Enrico Rossi, coordinator of the councilors for health – The 2008 objective? Establish an Office for Conciliations in Tuscany, because we believe there is an excessive use of criminal complaints following medical errors". And Rossi from the Arezzo Forum also launches the Campaign against hospital infections.
