A unique approach was introduced to integrate pharmacy students into a multicentre patient-centred research project predicting medication related harm (MRH) post-discharge. A training framework was developed to prepare students for research participation and integration. The framework aligned research project tasks with the pharmacists' national competency standards framework. The framework was piloted on four research placement students from two local universities during three hospital placements, from October 2020 to August 2021. Following their initial orientation and training, students collected data from 38 patients and were involved in patient screening processes, interviewing, data collection and analysis. Patients' MRH risk scores correlated with re-admission rates with 16/38 (42%) of patients re-admitted within eight weeks following discharge. Their participation in the research enabled students to obtain skills in (1) literature searching, (2) maintaining patient confidentiality, (3) interviewing patients, (4) obtaining data from medical records, (5) communicating with patients and clinicians, and (6) the use of clinical information to predict MRH risk.
引入了一种独特的方法，将药学专业学生纳入一个多中心、以患者为中心的研究项目，该项目旨在预测出院后与用药相关的伤害（MRH）。开发了一个培训框架，使学生为参与和融入研究做好准备。该框架将研究项目任务与药剂师的国家能力标准框架相结合。2020年10月至2021年8月期间，在三家医院的实习中，对来自两所当地大学的四名参与研究实习的学生进行了该框架的试点。在最初的入职培训和训练之后，学生们收集了38名患者的数据，并参与了患者筛查过程、访谈、数据收集和分析。患者的MRH风险评分与再入院率相关，38名患者中有16名（42%）在出院后八周内再次入院。他们参与该研究使学生获得了以下技能：（1）文献检索，（2）维护患者隐私，（3）访谈患者，（4）从病历中获取数据，（5）与患者和临床医生沟通，以及（6）利用临床信息预测MRH风险。
