The consultant respiratory physician acknowledged that Dr F made an error of judgement in failing to immediately report identification of the mislabelled drug chart to Dr D the evening of 9 April, but submitted this did not influence the clinical outcome for Mrs B. The reviewer did not accept the consultant respiratory physician's advice in relation to Dr F and specifically criticised Dr F's failure to detect the reason for Mrs B's worsening condition on the morning of 9 April ; , and her subsequent failure to report, assess and treat, or document consideration of treatment for the effects of wrongful drug administration on the evening of 9 April following discussion with Dr E ; . The reviewer stated: "The evidence suggests that may well have caused [Mrs B's] pneumonia to develop further prior to [Dr D's] role as the final decider of whether or not to give an antagonist . The medical evidence notes that this failure to examine the patient with a drug error of that magnitude is below a level of care and skill that would be expected [of a registrar]." Consideration was given to whether these events constituted "organisational error" pursuant to section 33 2 ; of the Injury Prevention, Rehabilitation, and Compensation Act 2001, which states: "If the treatment in question is being provided at the direction or under the management of an organisation . and the error cannot be readily attributed to a particular registered health professional involved in the provision of the treatment, medical error includes the failure of the organisation to observe a standard of care and skill reasonably to be expected in the circumstances." The reviewer concluded that this was not such a case: "I find that there is ample evidence that there were organisational problems at the hospital at the time the medication error occurred. However, I find that these organisational problems are not causative of the specific medical error. I find that the failures attributable to [Drs F, D and H] and the role of these failures in the chain of causation, readily identify the registered health professionals who failed to observe a standard of care and skill reasonably to be expected in the circumstances." In the case of each doctor, the circumstances varied depending on where their involvement in the treatment of Mrs B came in the chain of causation, and their role within the medical team. The reviewer commended Dr E for identifying the drug chart error and reporting it to Dr F, and accepted that while he lacked judgement in failing to document his actions, "an error of judgement does not necessarily constitute medical error". The reviewer also accepted that it would not be unusual for a doctor in Dr E's specific circumstance -- a house surgeon under supervision -- not to notice previous medications when charting a new one. She concluded that there was no proof that Dr E failed to observe a reasonable standard of care and skill, and accordingly quashed ACC's decision against him. ACC's medical error findings against Dr D, Dr H and Dr F were upheld.

Patients who experienced severe toxicity than in those who did not, although the difference was not significant Table 4 ; . Indeed, the differences in bilirubin levels among the genotypes were statistically significant but seemed clinically negligible as a tool to predict toxicity Table 5 ; . Furthermore, UGT1A1 * 28 appeared to be important for Gilbert's syndrome but not sufficient for the complete manifestation of the syndrome 19 ; . The clinical usefulness of the bilirubin level might be improved if patients abstain from drug and alcohol use and are strictly fasted, but it does not seem to be practical. Inter-ethnic differences can be easily predicted in metabolic profiles and clinical effects of irinotecan, although racial differences in tolerability and clinical outcomes of irinotecan treatment have not been investigated directly. Great differences in the distributions of the UGT1A1 polymorphisms between Caucasians and Japanese populations have been reported; the frequency of UGT1A1 * 28 in Caucasians is higher than among Japanese 20, 24 ; . This implies that Caucasians might be more susceptible to the drug than the Japanese. On the contrary, UGT1A1 * 6 and UGT1A1 * 27, the variant sequences in exon 1, have been identified only in the Japanese 19, 21, 22 ; . Although the clinical significance for irinotecan chemotherapy of these genotypes in exon 1 remains uncertain, they might cause Japanese to be more sensitive to the drug than Caucasians. These findings suggest racial differences in the importance of UGT1A1 genotypes in irinotecan toxicity. Individualization of drug dosage is critical for cancer chemotherapy to reduce unnecessary toxicity and to improve its therapeutic efficacy because the therapeutic index is often narrow. Oncologists traditionally used to predict toxicity by drugs and to optimize the dosage based on the patient's physiological factors e.g., body surface area, age ; , pathological conditions e.g., performance status, organ functions ; , and clinical history e.g., previous treatments ; . Recently, pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic analyses in chemotherapy provide more objective information for predicting the clinical effects of drugs. Furthermore, we believe that pharmacogenetic analyses would be an another clue for individualized chemotherapy. If there is the recognized difference in drug disposition and sensitivity caused by the polymorphic drug-metabolizing enzyme, the optimal dosage required for response with the least toxicity would be different in patients with the different genotypes. In the present study, the determination of the UGT1A1 genotypes for irinotecan treatment was suggested to be clinically useful. We are planning a dose escalation study of irinotecan in cancer patients who have been determined to have the variant genotypes and cilostazol. Transient detection of hepatitis B vaccine following immunization is an unusual problem and has not been previously described in a dialysis patient. The positive hepatitis B screening had important implications for the patient unable to receive renal transplant ; and the organization of the chronic dialysis facility risk of cross-infection ; . In the acute renal transplant setting, it is important to quickly screen the potential recipients for viral exposure so that transplantation can proceed urgently once a negative result is obtained. Thus a rapid, sensitive and specific test such as EIA is required so that even the earliest stages of infection can be detected. Transient hepatitis B antigenemia has been reported in blood donors [1, 2] and neonates [3, 4] who have received vaccination. Of the two genetically engineered vaccines currently used Engerix B SmithKline Beecham, UK ; is associated with this phenomenon but there have been no reports with Recombivax Merck and Co, UK ; . This is probably because the dose of hepatitis B vaccine is an order of magnitude lower in Recombivax. A small study of Kloster et al. in blood donors found nine positive HBsAg results by EIA Abbott, USA ; in 12 donors 13 days after vaccination with Engerix B [1]. After detection of HBsAg Murex EIA, Banford, UK ; in one blood donor 24 h after immunization, one group [2] examined sera for several days following immunization but detected no positive results. Detection of HBsAg following immunization in neonates appears to be more common. Challapalli et al. [3] reported detectable levels of HBsAg in 55% of neonates given the vaccine and studied over 3 days. Four such infants were followed and HBsAg was no longer detected after a maximum of 17 days. In another study [4] of 19 infants, HBsAg was detected in 65% with a peak at 23 days and a maximum at 8 days. Our patient was unusual in that he was positive 6 days post vaccination, longer than any previously reported in adults. In the UK, current guidelines for the donation of blood products state that donation should not occur until 2 days after a hepatitis B immunization. Both vaccines contain aggregates of the 24 000 kDa polypeptide surface antigen adsorbed onto an alum carrier. If a proportion of the vaccine were to be free antigen then there is a chance this could find its way into the bloodstream to produce a positive result. The potential concentration available to the general circulation is certainly high enough at current assay limits to be detectable. Engerix B contains a higher concentration of HBsAg and along with differences in production may be the reasons why it has this propensity to be detected peripherally. 1University of Wales College of Medicine Wrexham Maelor Hospital Clwyd 2Department of Virology Royal Liverpool University Hospital Liverpool UK S.

Primary occupation, and some experts may be willing to tailor their testimony for their client. Tailored testimony may be constrained by mechanisms for assuring that testimony meet certain standards.5, 6 Unfortunately, this involves a number of difficult steps: "assembling a true peer review panel, determining all the relevant facts, defining the standard of acceptable testimony, imposing meaningful sanctions, and--most problematic--subjecting medical and specialty organizations and physicians conducting peer review to legal risk."7 Even if review is possible, the line between reasonable disagreement and fraud, misconduct, or otherwise improper testimony can be difficult to determine. Because testimony from adversarial experts may be biased, unreliable, or invalid, alternatives have been suggested. These include court-appointed experts, malpractice screening panels, and practice guidelines. Although these approaches reduce error, they have other limitations: court appointed experts have been difficult to fund, malpractice screening panels cannot legally substitute for jury trials, 8 and practice guidelines often conflict with each other or give only very general information that is difficult to apply in a specific case. Another practical alternative is a survey of peergroup physicians as a method for obtaining medical input on customary and reasonable standards of practice. The present study illustrates the use of this method and some of its advantages and disadvantages.

Suggests that addressing the stubbornly resilient rates of high-risk collegiate drinking by targeting first-year students makes sense. Historically, intervening with entering students has been the responsibility of freshman orientation programs and, more recently, opening weekend celebrations. Unfortunately, established high school drinking behaviors coupled with misperceptions about collegiate drinking that are exacerbated by a dearth of the life skills necessary to negotiate the day-today demands of college life result in first-year students being among the highest-risk drinkers on campus. To make an appreciable difference in the risks freshmen run, these students need to be exposed to prevention programming and intervention strategies, similar to those that have shown results in higher education, while still in high school. Such interventions are needed years before high school students arrive on campus, and certainly no later than when they begin their college quest in earnest. If institutions of higher education begin to market to high school juniors following their completion of the PSAT Preliminary Scholastic Aptitude Test ; then these same. Victor Cohen, Pharm.D.
