Biography and Research Information
OverviewAI-generated summary
Efrata Ashuro Shegena's research focuses on patient outcomes and medication safety within hospital settings. She has investigated the prevalence and associated factors of adverse drug reactions among heart failure patients at Mbarara Regional Referral Hospital in Uganda. Her work also includes studies on inappropriate anti-diabetic medication therapy in type 2 diabetes patients and drug-related problems in patients with kidney dysfunction at tertiary hospitals in southwestern Uganda.
Further research by Shegena examines drug therapy problems related to cardiovascular agents in heart failure patients and prescription errors in community pharmacies. She has also explored pharmacognostic and phytochemical studies for the identification of medicinal plants. Her scholarship metrics include an h-index of 4 with 48 total citations across 11 publications.
