AB  - Aims: The aim of this study was to compare the clinical decision-making for benzodiazepine deprescribing between a healthcare provider (HCP) and an artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot GPT4 (ChatGPT-4). Methods: We analysed real-world data from a Croatian cohort of community-dwelling benzodiazepine patients (n = 154) within the EuroAgeism H2020 ESR 7 project. HCPs evaluated the data using pre-established deprescribing criteria to assess benzodiazepine discontinuation potential. The research team devised and tested AI prompts to ensure consistency with HCP judgements. An independent researcher employed ChatGPT-4 with predetermined prompts to simulate clinical decisions for each patient case. Data derived from human-HCP and ChatGPT-4 decisions were compared for agreement rates and Cohen's kappa. 
Results : Both HPC and ChatGPT identified patients for benzodiazepine deprescribing (96.1% and 89.6%, respectively), showing an agreement rate of 95% (κ=.200,P=.012). Agreement on four deprescribing criteria ranged from 74.7% to 91.3%(lack of indicationκ=.352,P< .001; prolonged useκ=.088,P=.280; safety concernsκ=.123,P=.006; incorrect dosageκ=.264,P=.001). Important limitationsof GPT-4 responses were identified, including 22.1% ambiguous outputs, genericanswers and inaccuracies, posing inappropriate decision-making risks.Conclusions : While AI-HCP agreement is substantial, sole AI reliance poses a risk forunsuitable clinical decision-making. This study's findings reveal both strengths andareas for enhancement of ChatGPT-4 in the deprescribing recommendations within areal-world sample. Our study underscores the need for additional research on chatbot functionality in patient therapy decision-making, further fostering the advance-ment of AI for optimal performance.

AB  - Pharmacist’s geriatric assessment can provide valuable insights into potential deprescribing targets, while including important information on various health-related domains. Data collected from a geriatric assessment questionnaire, for 388 patients, from the Croatian cohort of the EuroAgeism H2020 ESR 7 international project, along with guideline-based deprescribing criteria, were used to analyse potentially inappropriate prescribing of four medication groups (benzodiazepines (BZN), proton pump inhibitors (PPI), opioids, and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID)), and to assess the deprescribing potential. Binary logistic regression was used to explore the effects of age, gender, number of medicines and diagnoses, self-reported health, frailty score, and healthcare utilization on the likelihood of needing deprescribing. More than half of participants (n = 216, 55.2%) are candidates for deprescribing, with 31.1% of PPI, 74.8% of NSAID, 75% of opioid, and 96.1% of BZN users meeting at least one criterion. Most common criteria for deprescribing were inappropriately long use and safety concerns. Women (aOR = 2.58; p < 0.001), those reporting poor self-reported health (aOR = 5.14; p < 0.001), and those exposed to polypharmacy (aOR = 1.29; p < 0.001) had higher odds of needing to have medicines deprescribed. The high rate of deprescribing potential warrants prompt action to increase patient safety and decrease polypharmacy. Pharmacist’s geriatric assessment and deprescribing-focused medication review could be used to lead a personalised approach.

AB  - We aimed to systematically review the prevalence of potentially inappropriate prescribing (PIP) in older adults in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) in all care settings. We searched Embase and MEDLINE (up to June 2019) and checked the reference lists of the included studies and relevant reviews. Eligible studies used validated explicit or implicit tools to assess the PIP prevalence in older adults in CEE. All study designs were considered, except case‒control studies and case series. We assessed the risk of bias using the Joanna Briggs Institute Prevalence Critical Appraisal Tool and the certainty of evidence using the GRADE approach. Meta-analysis was inappropriate due to heterogeneity in the outcome measurements. Therefore, we used the synthesis without meta-analysis approach—summarizing effect estimates method. This review included twenty-seven studies with 139,693 participants. Most studies were cross-sectional and conducted in high-income countries. The data synthesis across 26 studies revealed the PIP prevalence: the median was 34.6%, the interquartile range was 25.9–63.2%, and the range was 6.5–95.8%. The certainty of this evidence was very low due to the risk of bias, imprecision, and inconsistency. These findings show that PIP is a prevalent issue in the CEE region. Further well-designed studies conducted across countries are needed to strengthen the existing evidence and increase the generalizability of findings.

AB  - Background/Aim. The Critical Incident Technique
(CIT) is a qualitative research method for measuring con-
sumer satisfaction by collecting and analyzing information
on participants and their activities. This method allows
participants to present their detailed experiences related to
a particular service in the way they perceive them. The aim
of this study was to examine patients' perceptions of an
incident that occurred in community pharmacies using
CIT and determine recommendations for improving the
quality of pharmacy services. Methods. A qualitative
study using an interview based on the CIT was conducted
in three pharmacies in Serbia, on the territory of Kruševac
city. The entire course of the interviews was audio-
recorded, which provided detailed research. Results. A to-
tal of 68 critical incidents were collected and divided into
two groups: positive (37) and negative (31), depending on
the (dis)satisfaction of patients with the services of phar-
macists in community pharmacies. The following thematic
clusters of pharmacy services were covered: accessibility of
community-based pharmaceutical services, pharmacist be-
havior, patient counseling, dispensing drugs and/or medi-
cal devices, compounding, and pharmacy
sales/commercial practice. Conclusion. The results show
that the CIT is a useful tool for evaluating and improving
pharmaceutical services. Based on the data collected, vari-
ous aspects of community pharmacy services can be im-
proved, and further research should be carried out.
AB  - Uvod/Cilj. Tehnika kritičnih incidenata (TKI) je kvalita-
tivna metoda istraživanja z a merenje zadovoljstva klije-
nata putem prikupljanja i analiziranja podataka o
učesnicima i njihovim aktivnostima. Ta metoda
omogućava učesnicima u istraživanju da predstave detalje
o svojim iskustvima povezanim sa određenom uslugom,
na način na koji ih dož ivljavaju. Cilj studije bio je da se
ispita percepcija pacijenata o incidentu koji se desio u
javnim apotekama korišćenjem TKI i da se predlože pre-
poruke za poboljšanje kvaliteta farmaceutskih usluga.
Metode. Kvalitativna studija pomoću intervjua zasno-
vanog na TKI sprovedena je u tri apoteke u Srbiji, na ter-
itoriji grada Kruševca. Ceo tok intervjua sniman je
pomoću diktafona čime je obezbeđeno detaljno
istraživanje. Rezultati. Ukupno je prikupljeno 68
kritičnih incidenata i podeljeno u dve grupe: pozitivne
(37) i negativne (31), zavisno od (ne)zadovoljstva klije-
nata uslugama farmaceuta u apotekama. Obuhvaćeni su
sledeći aspekti usluga u apoteci: dostupnost farma-
ceutskih usluga u zajednici, ponašanje farmaceuta,
savetovanje pacijenata, izdavanje lekova i/ili medicinskih
sredstava, rastvaranje lekova i prodaja/komercijalna
praksa farmaceuta. Zaključak. Rezultati pokazuju da je
TKI korisno sredstvo za procenu i unapređenje farma-
ceutskih usluga. Različiti aspekti usluga u javnoj apoteci
se mogu poboljšati što zahteva dalja istraživanja zado-
voljstva pacijenata kvalitetom farmaceutske usluge.

havior, patient counseling, dispensing drugs and/or medi-
cal devices, compounding, and pharmacy
sales/commercial practice. Conclusion. The results show
that the CIT is a useful tool for evaluating and improving
pharmaceutical services. Based on the data collected, vari-
ous aspects of community pharmacy services can be im-
proved, and further research should be carried out., Uvod/Cilj. Tehnika kritičnih incidenata (TKI) je kvalita-
tivna metoda istraživanja z a merenje zadovoljstva klije-
nata putem prikupljanja i analiziranja podataka o
učesnicima i njihovim aktivnostima. Ta metoda
omogućava učesnicima u istraživanju da predstave detalje
o svojim iskustvima povezanim sa određenom uslugom,
na način na koji ih dož ivljavaju. Cilj studije bio je da se
ispita percepcija pacijenata o incidentu koji se desio u
javnim apotekama korišćenjem TKI i da se predlože pre-
poruke za poboljšanje kvaliteta farmaceutskih usluga.
Metode. Kvalitativna studija pomoću intervjua zasno-
vanog na TKI sprovedena je u tri apoteke u Srbiji, na ter-
itoriji grada Kruševca. Ceo tok intervjua sniman je
pomoću diktafona čime je obezbeđeno detaljno
istraživanje. Rezultati. Ukupno je prikupljeno 68
kritičnih incidenata i podeljeno u dve grupe: pozitivne
(37) i negativne (31), zavisno od (ne)zadovoljstva klije-
nata uslugama farmaceuta u apotekama. Obuhvaćeni su
sledeći aspekti usluga u apoteci: dostupnost farma-
ceutskih usluga u zajednici, ponašanje farmaceuta,
savetovanje pacijenata, izdavanje lekova i/ili medicinskih
sredstava, rastvaranje lekova i prodaja/komercijalna
praksa farmaceuta. Zaključak. Rezultati pokazuju da je
TKI korisno sredstvo za procenu i unapređenje farma-
ceutskih usluga. Različiti aspekti usluga u javnoj apoteci
se mogu poboljšati što zahteva dalja istraživanja zado-
voljstva pacijenata kvalitetom farmaceutske usluge.",
