概述和批评的研究措施不适当的精神活性药物的使用在治疗体弱的老年人提出。这些措施是比较的基础上的六个关键标准,复杂的确定不适当的精神药物使用作为一个研究变量。这六种仪器/标准也检查了他们的优点和缺点作为研究工具。基于这篇综述和相关文献,我们建议未来对精神活性药物不当使用的研究包括专家临床医生的评估,目标症状和功能状态的测量,尽可能的生理指标,以及根据跨学科共识标准的药物和剂量分类。
An overview and critique of research measures of inappropriate psychoactive drug use in the treatment of frail older adults is presented. These measures are compared on the basis of six key criteria for the complex determination of inappropriate psychoactive drug use as a research variable. These six instruments/standards are examined also for their advantages and disadvantages as research tools. Based on this review and related literature, recommendations are made that future studies of inappropriate psychoactive drug use include expert clinician assessment, measures of target symptoms and functional status, physiological indicators wherever possible, and drug and dosage classifications according to interdisciplinary consensus‐based criteria.
