Zusammenfassung:Calculating PQI scores using the PQI Tool The prescription quality was examined using the PQI tool consisting of 22 criteria-indication, dosage, effectiveness, evidence base, drug administration, drug-drug interaction, drugdisease interaction, adverse drug effect, unnecessary duplication, duration of treatment, cost minimization, use of generic name, selection from hospital drug list, compliance, medication name, legibility, prescriber information, patient information, diagnosis, requirement for drug therapy, and patient's improvement. [...]Kaiser's criteria (eigenvalue >1 rule) and scree test were applied to measure the construct validity of the tool. [...]it might be possible to modify the quality of prescribing by discussing our findings with them. [...]studies with different conditions in different health-care settings can be conducted using the PQI tool for complete overview of prescribing quality at different healthcare setups.
