Publication Type: Abstract Abstract: Objectives. To measure the impact of exposure to a lecture, in combination with an interview of a hospital pharmacist, on student ability and confidence in utilization of appropriate hospital drug information resources. Methods. Students enrolled in the College’s Hospital Pharmacy elective were administered unannounced questionnaires asking them to list the resource where they could find drug information for each of eight categories, and to rate their confidence in identifying an appropriate answer. Students then conducted in-person interviews with hospital pharmacists regarding drug information practices in these same categories. Students were also exposed to a drug information lecture conducted by Louisiana Drug Information Center (LDIC) faculty. Students were re-assessed utilizing the same questionnaire. Answers were categorized and analyzed as appropriate, potentially inappropriate, or inappropriate by the LDIC. Student confidence was measured using a 5 point Likert scale. Results. Average student confidence increased in all scenarios on the post assessment with the largest increases being in locating clinical information regarding foreign drugs, intravenous compatibility and stability. Less common requests such as off-label medication use, herbal product and foreign medication information had the lowest percentage of ‘appropriate’ resources selected by the students (39-80% compared to 90-100% on the other five scenarios) and had the lowest confidence levels on the post assessment. Implications. Since a large number of students had difficulty identifying appropriate sources for less common drug information requests, even after interviewing a pharmacist faced with a similar scenario, placing more emphasis on didactic training in these areas would be beneficial.
