The discrepancies between both therapies were analyzed., Results: 47 patients were included with 273 lines of home validated treatments and 274 lines of Medoracyl® treatment. 48 out of 273 lines were in discrepancy (17.6% [95% CI: 13.1- 21.6]). 27 out of 48 were justified, whereas 7.8% represented a discrepancy risk [95% CI: 4.6-11.0]., Conclusions: Medoracyl® is a useful tool and easy to access that allows knowing more than 90% of the home medication of the patients., (Copyright © 2013 SEFH.
