Analysis of Adverse Reactions in Elderly Patients Based on Quantitative Methods of Signal Detection by K. E. Zalolochina, E. A. Ushkalova, A. S. Kazakov, S. K. Zyryanov, V. A. Polivanov

“…An increase in ADRs reporting makes it difficult to identify potential safety signals based on qualitative approaches only, which necessitates the use of statistical methods for signal detection based on disproportionality.The aim of the study was to assess the applicability of quantitative methods for signal detection and analysis of ADR risks in the elderly using the Russian spontaneous report database.Materials and methods: the study covered the reports on patients 65 years of age and older, which were submitted to the spontaneous report database from January 2008 until June 2018. The procedure recommended by the European Medicines Agency was used to identify potential statistical safety signals which were determined based on the following criteria: Reporting Odds Ratio, ROR—lower bound of the 95% confidence interval &gt;1, number of cases ≥2; Proportional Reporting Ratio, PRR ≥ 2, Chi-square value χ2 ≥ 4, number of cases ≥3, lower bound of the 95% confidence interval &gt;1, number of cases ≥3.Results: 2231 potential statistical signals were identified. …”
