Description

<p>Medication management and guidance are among the most important elements in preventing cardiovascular diseases during cardiac rehabilitation. In the field of cardiology, where patients tend to take multiple medications as they age, a collaborative relationship with community pharmacies is indispensable. In particular, there is significant diversity among physicians and facilities regarding the administration of medications for heart failure. This diversity presents a major barrier to providing drug administration guidance at community pharmacies. As a solution to this problem, a new form of collaboration between physicians and community pharmacies using SNS (Slack) could be an excellent opportunity. Physicians could use SNS to share their treatment policies and drug selection criteria with the dispensing side. On the pharmacy side, this would enable them to share, in advance, the rationale behind drug selection by physicians and their intent to reduce or increase the number of drugs. This approach will contribute to improving the accuracy of explanations and guidance for patients. The remarkable development of information transmission technologies, such as online communication and wearable devices, will not only aid in sharing digital information but also in building human connections and communities. </p>
