%X Our aim in this research was to establish whether integrating an electronically generated calculation and report on the Drug Burden Index (DBI) in the Home Medicines Review (HMR) setting is an accurate, feasible and useful risk assessment tool to assess risk of anticholinergic and sedative medications; and to establish whether the intervention of DBI together with HMR is associated with a reduced use of anticholinergic and sedative medications in older community-dwelling adults in Australia
