Publication Type: Abstract Abstract: Objectives: The purpose of this study was to determine if enrollment in a hospital pharmacy elective increased the confidence level of students to locate and assimilate information from medical records during their initial Acute Care Advanced Pharmacy Practice Experience. Methods: A two credit hour elective, Hospital Pharmacy, was offered to third year pharmacy students in the Fall of 2006. Students received didactic instruction regarding medical charts and were given problem-based exercises utilizing a sample medical record. In the Spring of 2008, a survey was conducted of fourth year pharmacy students during an Advanced Pharmacy Practice Experiential meeting. The 11-item survey consisted of a Likert-type scale of items regarding students’ confidence levels in their ability to locate information in patient medical records. Results: Compared to students who did not take the elective, students who completed the hospital pharmacy elective had a statistically significantly higher overall confidence level in familiarity with medical charts, (p = 0.0058) and higher confidence levels in locating patients’ allergies (p = 0.0286), laboratory data (p = 0.006), demographic information (p = 0.0052), physician orders (p = 0.0095), active hospital orders (p = 0.0311), patient education documentation (p = 0.0025), and list of home medications (p = 0.0014). Implications: The results demonstrate that prior to an Acute Care Advanced Pharmacy Practice Experience, pharmacy students who participated in a hospital pharmacy elective were more confident in their abilities to locate information in patient medical charts than students who did not take the elective.
