[Transfer to nursing care of patients with problems occurred during hospital care].
The innovative experience of the participation of a Registered Nurse in the Hospital Therapeutic Committee is described. The occasion for the participation was the drawing up of the Hospital Therapeutic Reference Book. The nurse had an active role in the identification of problems related to the practical use of drugs. Problems emerged, concerning the choices of the Committee and the implications for nursing care are discussed. The nurse can have a positive impact and her/his presence in the Therapeutic Committees should be mandatory.
