dc.description.abstractA poster presentation regarding retrospective analysis of serum digoxin concentrations at Mater Dei Hospital. Introduction: Digoxin as a therapeutic option in cardiology is limited by its narrow therapeutic index. Current evidence indicates that digoxin can exert its beneficial neurohormonal effects at significantly lower serum levels (<1.0ng/ml) than those previously considered optimal. Aims: To analyse serum digoxin concentrations (SDCs) at Mater Dei Hospital (MDH).  To assess compliance to the clinically recommended SDC target (0.5-1.0ng/ml).  To assess queries concerning digoxin processed by the Drug Information Unit (DIU) at MDH.en_GB
