Request Summary: Treatment of Insomnia
Request Category: Private Individuals
| Question Number 1: In the last 12 months, how many unique patients have been treated for Insomnia (ICD-10 code G47.0) with the following products: 1). Zopiclone 2). Zolpidem 3). Any other Melatonin product If you cannot provide the information for each product, please provide the information that you do have available. | |
| Answer To Question 1: • This code is unlikely to be added to the patient record as this is not commonly noted in patients’ healthcare records. • Patients’ own medicines from home are utilised whilst the patient is in hospital and not all patients receive a supply through pharmacy, so JAC records are incomplete. • Some clinical areas have zopiclone and melatonin as stock and therefore, supplies would not be recorded in JAC ( Pharmacy System) • Not all clinical areas are using ePMA and a search may not identify all patients | |
