Ongoing Research Activities
Diabetes Care Improvement Project
Concerted effort to provide enhanced diabetes care by offering comprehensive services to ~ 1200 patients suffering from type 1 and type 2 Diabetes. This includes the development of triaged care, nutrition services, clinical pharmacist based encounters, and home based glucometer testing.
Pharmacist Managed Anticoagulation Provision
Several grant applications and proposals have been submitted to establish an anticoagulation clinic in a resource constrained setting. This monitoring does not currently exist in this setting and prevents the provision of effective outpatient anticoagulation for many patients at an increased risk thromboembolic complications.
HIV Adherence Improvement Initiative
This project is designed to integrate simple pharmacy based strategies for improving adherence to antiretroviral medications. This includes the provision of pillboxes, performing pill counts at every visit and eventually generating patient information sheets which integrate patient specific information to help patients monitor their own care.
