Potentially inappropriate prescribing and its associations with health-related and system-related outcomes in hospitalised older adults: A systematic review and meta-analysis

Alemayehu B. Mekonnen et al.

Summary: The synthesis of studies on potentially inappropriate prescribing (PIP) in hospital settings from 1991 to 2021 showed that PIP is significantly associated with adverse drug event-related hospital admissions, functional decline, and adverse drug reactions and events in older adults. The impact of PIP on other outcomes like falls, emergency department visits, and health-related quality of life remains inconclusive.
