Little is known about how physician time allocated in ambulatory care.To describe spent practice.Quantitative direct observational and motion study (during office hours) self-reported diary (after hours).U.S. care 4 specialties states (Illinois, New Hampshire, Virginia, Washington).57 U.S. physicians family medicine, internal cardiology, orthopedics who were observed for 430 hours, 21 of whom also completed after-hours diaries.Proportions on activities (direct clinical face time, electronic...
In Brief Study Design. Cross-sectional study. Objectives. To determine prevalence rates of spondylolysis, isthmic, and degenerative spondylolisthesis in an unselected adult community-based population; to evaluate the association with low back pain (LBP). Summary Background Data. Spondylolysis are prevalent general however, relationship between these conditions LBP is controversial. Methods. This study was ancillary project Framingham Heart Study. A sample 3529 participants aged 40 80 years...
Time nurses spend with patients is associated improved patient outcomes, reduced errors, and nurse satisfaction. Few studies have measured how distribute their time across tasks. We aimed to quantify tasks, patients, in individual engagement other health care providers; work patterns changed over a two year period.Prospective observational study of 57 for 191.3 hours (109.8 2005/2006 81.5 2008), on wards teaching hospital Australia. The validated Work Observation Method by Activity Timing...
Surgical site infection has been identified as one of the most important preventable sources morbidity and mortality associated with medical treatment. The purpose present study was to evaluate feasibility efficacy an institutional prescreening program for preoperative detection eradication both methicillin-resistant methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus in patients undergoing elective orthopaedic surgery.Data were collected prospectively during a single-center study. A universal...
To report long‐term results of a randomized controlled trial that compared cisplatin/fluorouracil/docetaxel (TPF) induction chemotherapy (IC) plus concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) with CCRT alone in locoregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). Patients stage III–IVB (except T3–4 N0) NPC were randomly assigned to receive IC (n = 241) or 239). included three cycles docetaxel (60 mg/m 2 d1), cisplatin and fluorouracil (600 /d civ d1–5) every 3 weeks. from both groups received...
Objective: Axillary lymph node (ALN) metastasis status is important in guiding treatment breast cancer. The aims were to assess how deep convolutional neural network (CNN) performed compared with radiomics analysis predicting ALN using ultrasound, and investigate the value of both intratumoral peritumoral regions prediction. Methods: We retrospectively enrolled 479 cancer patients 2,395 ultrasound images. Based on intratumoral, peritumoral, combined intra- regions, three CNNs built DenseNet,...
Abstract Purpose: Predicting late effects in patients treated with radiation therapy by assessing vitro radiation-induced CD4 and CD8 T-lymphocyte apoptosis can be useful individualizing treatment. Experimental Design: In a prospective study, 399 curatively irradiated were tested using rapid assay where fresh blood samples 8 Gy X-rays. Lymphocytes collected prepared for flow cytometric analysis. Apoptosis was assessed associated condensation of DNA. The incidences toxicities compared...
In a before-and-after study, Johanna Westbrook and colleagues evaluate the change in prescribing error rates after introduction of two commercial electronic systems Australian hospitals.
To (i) compare medication errors identified at audit and observation with incident reports; (ii) identify differences between two hospitals in report frequency error rates; (iii) prescribing detection rates by staff.Audit of 3291 patient records to evidence their staff. Medication administration were from a direct observational study 180 nurses administering 7451 medications. Severity was classified. Those likely lead harm categorized as 'clinically important'.Two major academic teaching...
Many hospital staff who prescribe intravenous (IV) fluids have not received adequate training on the subject despite fact that fluid management is one of commonest tasks in involving complex decisions optimal volume, rate, and type to be given. Although inappropriate therapy rarely reported as being responsible for patient harm, a 1999 report from National Confidential Enquiry into Perioperative Deaths (NCEPOD) suggested many 1 5 patients receiving IV suffered complications or morbidity due...
Objective To quantify and compare the time doctors nurses spent on direct patient care, medication-related tasks, interactions before after electronic medication management system (eMMS) introduction.
To provide a detailed characterisation of clinicians' work management strategies.1002.3 h observational data were derived from three previous studies conducted in teaching hospital Sydney, Australia, among emergency department (ED) doctors (n=40), ward (n=57) and nurses (n=104). The rates task-switching (pausing task to handle an incoming task) multitasking (adding parallel existing compared each group. Random intercepts logistic regression was used determine factors significantly associated...
The objective was to examine the relationship between laboratory testing (including test volume and turnaround time [TAT]) emergency department (ED) length of stay (LOS), using linked patient-level data from four hospitals across 4 years.This a retrospective, multisite cohort study patients presenting any one EDs in New South Wales, Australia, during 2-month period (August September) 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011. Data ED information systems were data. A cross-classified random-effect modeling...
Mothers are encouraged to exclusively breastfeed for the first 6 months. However, cesarean delivery rates have increased worldwide, which may affect breastfeeding. Research aim: This study aimed determine potential effects of on breastfeeding practices and duration.This was a 6-month cohort extracted from 24-month prospective mother-infant pairs in three communities Hunan, China. Data about participants' characteristics, methods, initiation, use formula hospital, exclusive breastfeeding, any...
Protocatechuic acid (PCA) is a natural component with multiple biological activities. However, the underlying mechanisms of effects PCA on anti-ulcerative colitis (UC) are unclear. A UC mouse model was established by allowing mice to freely drink dextran sulfate sodium solution. The were administered intragastrically for 7 days. Histological pathology, intestinal flora, and ferroptosis regulators determined in vivo. Additionally, ferroptotic Caco-2 cells modeled investigate role ferroptosis....
