Effectiveness Of Person-Centred Versus Usual Care In Elderly Patients: Findings From A Multicentre Randomised Controlled Trial

Effectiveness Of Person-Centred Versus Usual Care In Elderly Patients: Findings From A Multicentre Randomised Controlled Trial

The person-centred care model involves a multidisciplinary team providing individualised health and social care aligned with patient preferences and health goals. Although some evidence supports its use in primary care, it remains under-evaluated. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a Collaborative Medication Management (CMM) approach in optimising pharmacotherapy plans versus usual care among polymedicated older adults.

Person-centred care models that use collaborative, multidisciplinary approaches improve medication optimisation and reduce inappropriate drug use in older adults with multiple medications. This suggests that tailoring care to patient goals and involving shared decision-making can enhance clinical outcomes and medication safety in complex chronic care settings.
