摘要

Background Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and gastro-protective agents should be co-prescribed following a standard clinical practice guideline; however, adherence to this guideline in routine practice is unknown. This study applied an association rule model (ARM) to estimate rational NSAIDs and gastro-protective agents use in an outpatient prescriptions dataset. Methods A database of hospital outpatients from October 1st, 2013 to September 30th, 2015 was searched for any of following drugs: oral antacids (A02A), peptic ulcer and gastro-oesophageal reflux disease drugs (GORD, A02B), and anti-inflammatory and anti-rheumatic products, non-steroids or NSAIDs (M01A). Data including patient demographics, diagnoses, and drug utilization were also retrieved. An association rule model was used to analyze co-prescription of the same drug class (i.e., prescriptions within A02A-A02B, M01A) and between drug classes (A02A-A02B & M01A) using the Apriori algorithm in R. The lift value, was calculated by a ratio of confidence to expected confidence, which gave information about the association between drugs in the prescription. Results We identified a total of 404,273 patients with 2,575,331 outpatient visits in 2 fiscal years. Mean age was 48?years and 34% were male. Among A02A, A02B and M01A drug classes, 12 rules of associations were discovered with support and confidence thresholds of 1% and 50%. The highest lift was between Omeprazole and Ranitidine (340 visits); about one-third of these visits (118) were prescriptions to non-GORD patients, contrary to guidelines. Another finding was the concomitant use of COX-2 inhibitors (Etoricoxib or Celecoxib) and PPIs. 35.6% of these were for patients aged less than 60?years with no GI complication and no Aspirin, inconsistent with guidelines. Conclusions Around one-third of occasions where these medications were co-prescribed were inconsistent with guidelines. With the rapid growth of health datasets, data mining methods may help assess quality of care and concordance with guidelines and best evidence.
