Medications are often stopped during transfers of care. Bell et al analyzed administrative-level data for almost 400,000 hospitalizations in Ontario, Canada, as well as 90-day follow-up outpatient prescription data. They conclude that medications were likely to be discontinued after discharge from the hospital or ICU, "potentially unintentionally." Five medication classes were analyzed (inhalers, anticoagulant/antiplatelets, acid-suppressors, thyroxine replacement, and statins). The "discontinuation" is everywhere referred to or implied as being done by the discharging physicians -- and probably was -- but this is never demonstrated; only whether a patient refilled a Rx within 90 days was measured.
