Abstract | Objectives: Medication-Related Inappropriateness (MRI) poses a significant risk to elderly patients, particularly in aged care settings, where complex medication regimens and healthcare challenges increase the likelihood of errors. Addressing MRI is critical to enhancing patient safety and improving health outcomes for older adults. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of interventions designed to reduce MRI and improve prescribing practices in elderly populations through a systematic review and meta-analysis. |
