摘要：
This study investigated causes of hospitalizations due to adverse drug events (ADEs) and falls among patients at a nonprofit Visiting Nurse Association, over 1 year, using a retrospective record review (n = 50). Findings revealed that 42 hospitalizations occurred related to hypo-/hyperglycemia (n = 1), ADEs (n = 10), and falls (n = 31). Patients experienced medication side effects such as bradycardia, hypotension, hemorrhage, electrolyte imbalances, and syncope contributing to ADEs and resulting in potentially preventable hospitalizations.
