Does the integration of clinical pharmacists into heart failure clinics improve the timely initiation and titration of GDMT in safety-net hospitals?
Integrating clinical pharmacists into heart failure clinics may help overcome resource barriers to optimize guideline-directed medical therapy in safety-net hospitals.
In SNHs, where limited health care staff and resources present as barriers to timely initiation and titration of GDMT, integration of clinical pharmacists into HF clinics can serve as a practical solution.
“Integration of pharmacists in safety‑net HF clinics improved RAAS‑pathway optimization and shortened time to goal.”
