About this Research Topic
Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) and medication adherence are critical aspects of healthcare, particularly within pediatric and obstetric fields. Pediatric patients and pregnant women are often more vulnerable to ADRs, raising the stakes for vigilant medication management and accurate medical interventions. Forensic pathology plays an essential role in understanding medical malpractice by examining the consequences of medication errors, adherence issues, and the pathological outcomes of adverse reactions.
A comprehensive Research Topic focusing on these themes is vital to advancing clinical practice and safeguarding patient health. By aggregating current research, healthcare professionals can gain deeper insights into the prevalence, causes, and management of ADRs, the factors influencing medication adherence, and the forensic markers indicative of medical malpractice. This collection aims to highlight the interplay between clinical practice and forensic pathology, enhancing preventative strategies and therapeutic interventions.
We welcome articles which center around the following thematics:
• Prevalence and Influencing Factors of Medication Adherence in Pediatric Patients with Specific Conditions
o Factors affecting adherence in children
o The role of caregiver education and financial burdens
o Strategies to improve adherence and clinical outcomes
• Adverse Drug Reactions in Pediatric and Obstetric Populations
o Case reports and statistical analyses of ADRs
o Comparative studies on drug administration routes and their side effects
o Management protocols and preventive measures for severe ADRs
• Forensic Analysis and Medical Malpractice
o Case studies examining the forensic implications of medication errors
o The role of forensic markers in identifying malpractice in pediatric and obstetric cases
o Analysis of clinical outcomes and legal frameworks surrounding ADRs and adherence issues
The research topic addressing adverse drug reactions, medication adherence, and forensic markers in pediatric and obstetric fields is crucial for improving patient safety and clinical outcomes. By understanding and mitigating the risks associated with medication usage in these sensitive populations, healthcare providers can ensure better therapeutic efficacy and legal protection. This collection seeks to inform and shape future research, clinical practices, and policies to foster a safer and more effective healthcare system.
