Data Sources: Literature retrieval was accessed through a PubMed search of English-language sources from January 1990 through April 2012 using the medical subject heading pharmaceutical preparations\/supply and distribution and the general search term drug shortages. Study Selection and Data Extraction: All original prospective and retrospective studies, peer-reviewed guidelines, consensus statements, and review articles were evaluated for inclusion. Relevance was determined considering the therapeutic class, focus on drug shortages, and manuscript type. Data Synthesis: The increased number of drug shortages has created significant challenges for health care providers. Two particularly vulnerable populations are critically ill and oncology patients. A lack of therapeutic alternatives in critically ill patients may impact patient safety as well as treatment outcomes. Similarly, a chemotherapy agent in short supply may contribute to adverse outcomes in oncology patients. Conclusions: The mounting number of drug shortages has created a health care crisis, requiring changes in management strategies as well as clinical practice. The expanded phased approach outlined here provides a consistent, systematic approach for the management of drug shortages.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/0897190013482332","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,4,4]],"date-time":"2013-04-04T02:20:29Z","timestamp":1365042029000},"page":"183-191","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":30,"title":["Clinical Dilemmas and a Review of Strategies to Manage Drug Shortages"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"26","author":[{"given":"Anne Elise","family":"Rider","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Seton Medical Center Austin, Austin, TX, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Derek J.","family":"Templet","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"South Austin Medical Center, Austin, TX, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mitchell J.","family":"Daley","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University Medical Center Brackenridge, Austin, TX, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Carrie","family":"Shuman","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University Medical Center Brackenridge, Austin, TX, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Leticia V.","family":"Smith","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University Medical Center Brackenridge, Austin, TX, USA, and University of Texas at Austin College of Pharmacy, Austin, TX, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2013,4,3]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-0897190013482332","unstructured":"Drug shortage: current drugs.
