Abstract: Methods of determining whether specific drugs or patients carry an increased risk of causing or developing, respectively, long QT syndrome or Torsades de Pointes and methods of treating such patients.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention relate to a system and method for population-based medication risk stratification and for generating a personalized medication risk score. The system and method may pertain to a software that relates pharmacological characteristics of medications and patient's drug regimen data into algorithms that (1) enable identification and/or prognosis of high-risk patients for adverse drug events within a population distribution, and (2) allow computation of a personalized medication risk score which provides personalized, evidence-based information for safer drug use to mitigate medication risks.

Abstract: A medication risk mitigation method utilizing three interventions: a prospective intervention performed by a prescriber, a concurrent intervention performed by a pharmacist and a retroactive intervention performed by a pharmacist. At each intervention, the system of the instant invention utilizes a computer program to compare each prescribed medication to a series of intrinsic and extrinsic data sources in order to identify potential contraindications and, if necessary, modify a prescription. The system also permits secure messaging between prescribers and pharmacists, each with access to the computer program, so as to facilitate communication and reduce medication risks. The system of this invention also permits modeling for hypothetical medication modifications based on the same intrinsic and extrinsic data sources.
