All health overuse implies an unnecessary risk of patients suffering adverse events (AEs). However, this hypothesis has not been corroborated by direct estimates for inappropriate hospital admission (IHA). The objectives the study were following: (1) to analyze association between IHA and development subsequent AEs; (2) explore distinct clinical economic implications AEs compared appropriate admissions.An observational cross-sectional was conducted on hospitalized in May 2019 a...
Healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) are common and increase morbidity, mortality, healthcare costs. Their control continues to be an unresolved issue worldwide. HAIs epidemiology shows sex/gender differences. Thus the lack of consideration in Cochrane reviews will limit their applicability capacity support informed decisions. This study aims describe extent which interventions for preventing consider sex gender. Methodology appraising prevent HAIs. Search methods: Database Systematic...
(1) Background: The development of effective COVID-19 vaccines has reduced the impact on general population. Our study aims to analyze how vaccination modifies likelihood death and length stay in hospitalized patients with COVID-19; (2) Methods: A retrospective cohort 1927 infected was conducted. Information gathered status, hospitalization episode, clinical profile patients. effect mortality analyzed using a multiple logistic regression model, linear regression. performance fit models were...
Abstract The reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) continues to be the reference diagnostic method for confirmation of COVID-19 cases; however, rapid antigen detection tests (RADT) have recently been developed. purpose study is assess performance antigen-based testing in context hospital outbreaks. This was an observational, cross-sectional study. period from October 2020 January 2021. “Panbio AG” RADT (Abbott) performed and TaqPath test RT-PCR. samples were obtained...
Background: Inappropriate use of the emergency department (IEDU)-consisting unnecessary resource by patients with no clinical need-is one leading causes loss efficiency health system. Specific contexts modify routine practice and usage patterns. This study aims to analyse influence COVID-19 on IEDU its causes. Methods: A retrospective, cross-sectional conducted in a high-complexity hospital. The Hospital Emergency Suitability Protocol (HESP) was used measure prevalence causes, comparing...
Describe the incidence of invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) in serotypes with reduced antibiotic sensitivity to penicillin (RAS-Pen) adults over 59 years age and its association childhood anti-pneumococcal vaccination coverage (CVC) community consumption beta-lactam. We selected IPD cases reported Community Madrid between 2007 2016. estimated caused by included 13-valent conjugate vaccine (PCV13), those not (non-PCV13) six additional 7-valent (PCV13-no7). compared incidences from...
The major goals of the study were to describe invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) cases due erythromycin-resistant serotypes and evaluate association between these recent macrolide use in individuals aged over 59 years. We selected IPD reported 2007 2016 persons years living Community Madrid (CM). followed European Committee on Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing (EUCAST). explanatory variables (age, sex, year onset symptoms, clinical presentation, serotypes, vaccination status) taken from...
Inconsistencies in clinical practice, coupled with uncertainty, are constants across all scenarios and throughout time. In countries better-developed healthcare models, overuse is far more problematic than underuse, hence the appearance of methods for assessing hospital inadequacy at end 20th century [1]. During COVID-19 pandemic, admission criteria have been questioned based on alleged inconsistency between hospitals [2,3]. Several studies put proportion inappropriate visits to emergency...
