Abstract
Objectives: This study aimed to identify the prevalence of potentially inappropriate medication use (PIMU) in adults above the age of 65 with chronic kidney disease (CKD) according to the American Geriatric Society Beers Criteria (Beers), Screening Tool of Older People’s Potentially Inappropriate Prescriptions Criteria (STOPP) and medication appropriateness index (MAI) 30 criteria and to compare them to justify their use in this specific patient group. Materials and Methods: This was a retrospective and descriptive study conducted between October 1st, 2019 and March 18th, 2020 at Ibni Sina Hospital, Nephrology Department, Faculty of Medicine, Ankara University. Results: Among 269 patients discharged from the hospital during the study period, 100 of them were eligible for the study. The mean age was 73.3 ± 6.9 years and 51.9% of them were male. The prevalence of 35 PIMU was 91%, 42%, and 70% according to the Beers, STOPP, and MAI criteria, respectively. There was a statistically significant difference in terms of prevalence among 3 criteria (p
