Abstract

Digital solutions for a shared medication list are important in order to provide correct medication information between health care providers and the patient. The objective of this review is to provide an overview of the existing knowledge of effects and experiences with digital solutions for a shared medication list. We conducted a narrative literature review and included nine primary studies. Most studies were qualitative, focusing on experiences of patients and health care providers. This review revealed a gap of knowledge on the effects of patient safety and quality of care related to digital solutions for a shared medication list.
