Researchers are studying the relationship between clinical factors and the occurrence of adverse drug reactions in hospitalized patients who receive tropicamide/phenylephrine 8 mg/50 mg/mL. This study aims to identify which clinical determinants may increase the risk of these reactions and provide safety information for this commonly used ophthalmic drug combination. It also seeks to establish safety measures for patients undergoing eye examinations or surgery where these drugs are used. The study involves hospitalized patients scheduled for surgery who will receive two drops of tropicamide/phenylephrine 8 mg/50 mg/mL. Vital signs will be measured before administration and then at several time points afterward, including 5, 15, 30 minutes, and 1, 2, and 3 hours post-administration. Data will be collected using questionnaires and analyzed to find associations between clinical factors and adverse reactions. Participants will be monitored closely through vital sign checks and questionnaires during the study period. Researchers will evaluate adverse drug reactions and clinical determinants to understand their connection. The main outcome is to assess vital signs at set intervals following drug administration and identify any adverse reactions. The study is observational and aims to enhance the safety profile of this medication in hospitalized patients.
