Level of Harm - Minimal harm

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observations, reviews of resident clinical records, review of mediication documentation and interviews with
staff, it was determined that the facility failed to follow physician orders for one out of three residents'
medication administration reviewed. (Resident R9)
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include:
Review of literature, published in the National Library of
Medicine(https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3236147) revealed; chewable tablets are quickly
broken down in the mouth before swallowing, the chewable aspirin formulation achieved the most rapid rate
of absorption. Delayed Release (DR) medications are medications that are designed to release the active
ingredient(s) later after taking it, which can help control where it is released in the body (e.g., small
intestines). Many people at risk for heart disease take daily low-dose aspirin to help prevent blood clots.
Since Delayed Release Aspirin has to wait until it gets to the small intestines to be absorbed into the
bloodstream, its effects can take longer than regular aspirin, which is quickly absorbed in the stomach.
Review of Resident R9's clinical record revealed that the resident was admitted to the facility on [DATE],
with diagnosis including Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (A chronic condition that affects the way the body
processes blood sugar (glucose; with Type 2 Diabetes, the body either doesn't produce enough insulin, or it
resists insulin), and Long-Term Use of Aspirin (Aspirin also lowers the risk of heart attack, stroke or blood
clot).
Review of physician order dated May 12, 2023, for Resident R9, revealed an order for Aspirin 81 milligrams,
delayed release, by mouth, daily.
Observation conducted on December 13, 2023, at 9:11a.m., during medication administration to Resident
R9, it was observed that a Licensed Nurse, Employee E19, administered Aspirin chewable tablet 81
milligrams to Resident R9 and not delayed release as ordered by the physician.
Interview with Licensed nurse, Employee E19, at the time of the findings confirmed these observation.
