  3. Article: Unexpected Stability of a Prodrug to Enzymatic Hydrolysis within a Hydrated HPMC Matrix Tablet.

    Abstract The uptake of alkaline phosphate present in dissolution medium into a hydrating hydroxypropyl methylcellulose matrix tablet and that its activity was retained therein was demonstrated. This presents a risk to the stability of prodrugs that are substrates of this enzyme such as phosphonooxymethyl derivative prodrugs. It was found that fostemsavir, a phosphonooxymethyl derivative prodrug being developed for the treatment of HIV-1 infection, was unexpectedly resistant to hydrolysis within a hydrated HPMC matrix when subjected to drug release testing in media containing alkaline phosphatase. Studies indicated that this was not due to microenvironmental pH effects, osmolality effects or effective phosphate concentration effects associated with the presence of the prodrug. That the prodrug and not its parent could affect enzyme activity in a concentration dependent manner, and that another phosphate ester prodrug fosphenytoin did not inhibit alkaline phosphatase activity within a hydrated HPMC matrix suggested that the unexpected stability of the HIV-1 therapy prodrug may be associated with the ability of the phosphate group-containing compound itself to inhibit the enzyme at the concentrations it exists at in the hydrated dosage form and so enables the development of the compound in this type of dosage form.

    Abstract Background: The COVID-19 pandemic has been a struggle for medical systems throughout the world. In austere locations in which testing, resupply, and evacuation have been limited or impossible, unique challenges exist. This case series demonstrates the importance of population isolation in preventing disease from overwhelming medical assets.
    Methods: This is a case series describing the outbreak of COVID-19 in an isolated population in Africa. The population consists of a main population with a Role 2 capability, with several supported satellite populations with a Role 1 capability. Outbreaks in five satellite population centers occurred over the course of the COVID-19 pandemic from its start on approximately 1 March 2020 until 28 April 2020, when a more robust medical asset became available at the central evacuation hub within the main population.
    Results: Population movement controls and the use of telehealth prevented the spread within the main population at risk and enabled the setup of medical assets to prepare for anticipated widespread disease.
    Conclusion: Isolation of disease in the satellite populations and treating in place, rather than immediately moving to the larger population center's medical facilities, prevented widespread exposure. Isolation also protected critical patient transport capabilities for use for high-risk patients. In addition, this strategy provided time and resources to develop infrastructure to handle anticipated larger outbreaks.

    Abstract In strengthening eHealth in the Philippines to support the universal health care (UHC) law, the scaling up and full adoption of electronic medical record (EMR) systems was strategically scheduled and supposedly completed in 2020. The Covid-19 pandemic, however, delayed these strengthening efforts. We wanted to assess the status of EMR adoption in primary clinics of rural health units (RHUs) and understand the frequency of use, particularly during the pandemic. Through analyses of EMR usage logs from selected RHUs in 2020, we estimated frequency of EMR usage based on duration of use and tested if this was influenced by the performing RHU and pandemic event. We also determined the most frequent EMR activities through process maps and tested if there were differences in the conduct of these activities before and during the pandemic. Results showed that EMR use during work hours was significantly dependent on the performing RHU (p<0.001). High-performing RHUs used EMRs more than 3 hours/day while low-performing RHUs used the systems for less. The pandemic either significantly decreased or increased EMR use during work hours by around 5 hours/day in some RHUs (p<0.01). Process maps revealed that there were additional activities performed by RHUs during the pandemic. Except for Update Patient Profile and Add Patient EMR features, significant differences (p<0.01) were observed in accessing frequently used features before and during the pandemic. The results suggest some uneven level of utilization of EMRs at the primary care level which can impact readiness to support full implementation of the UHC law. The study shows the potential of using a more granular approach in studying adoption to help improve the quality of EMR use and contribute to improving health service delivery and financing.
