Sažetak
Aim To introduce participants to the concept of clinical pharmacy in Croatia and to the skills for identifying and resolving pharmaceutical care issues. Content Charles Hepler and Linda Strand defined pharmaceutical care as the responsible provision of drug therapy to achieve appropriate therapeutic outcomes. Clinical pharmacy encompasses specific skills and knowledge needed to deliver pharmaceutical care. Furthermore, it will focus on the identification of actual and potential medication related problems in chronic disease management based on Croatian clinical case scenarios. This will be achieved via an interactive workshop employing Problem Based Learning (PBL) where a range of cardiovascular and associated disorders will be presented. The workshop will start with a short brainstorming on the concept of clinical pharmacy in different health-care settings. Participants will have an opportunity to practice skills in relation to screening for pharmaceutical care issues, prioritising and resolving medication related problems and applying their knowledge of therapeutics to achieve the desired outcomes.
