Use of hypnotic drugs in a learning disabilities hospital
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 02 January 2018
Abstract
A one-day audit in a learning disabilities hospital revealed 15 patients (9.4% of the hospital population) on hypnotic medication. Guidelines were then developed for the use of hypnotic drugs. An audit of hypnotic drug usage was repeated for the 12-month period of 1994 which revealed that five patients were started on hypnotics.
