The erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) is a routine test for inflammation. Few studies have investigated the potential influence of lifestyle factors and common metabolic abnormalities on ESR. This study investigates demographic factors, alcohol consumption, smoking, physical activity, obesity, syndrome ESR in adults.This cross-sectional covered 1472 individuals (44.5% males; age range, 18-91 years) randomly selected from population Spanish municipality. was measured using standardized...
Objectives: To compare the health outcomes, specifically hospitalization and mortality rates, of primary care physicians' referrals to cardiology department for ambulatory assistance in heart failure (HF) over three clearly defined periods: before, during electronic consultation program implementation (e-consult), COVID-19 pandemic.
Telemedicine models play a key role in organizing the growing demand for care and healthcare accessibility, but there are no described longer-term results health care. Our objective is to assess (delay time care, hospital admissions) of an electronic consultation (e-consultation) outpatient program.Epidemiological clinical data were obtained from 41 258 patients referred by primary cardiology department January 1, 2010, December 31, 2019. Until 2012, all attended in-person (2010-2012). In...
Abstract Aims e‐consults are asynchronous, clinician‐to‐clinician exchanges that answer focused, non‐urgent, patient‐specific questions using the electronic medical record. We instituted an e‐consultation programme (2013–2019) for all general practitioners (GPs) referrals to cardiologists preceded patients' in‐person consultations when considered. In our study, we aimed analyse clinical characteristics, 1 year prognosis and prognostic determinants of patients with a previous diagnosis HF...
Abstract Aims We aimed to assess longer-term results (accessibility, hospital admissions, and mortality) in elderly patients referred a cardiology department (CD) from primary care using e-consultation outpatient care. Methods included 9963 >80 years 1 January 2010 31 December 2019. Until 2012, all attended an in-person consultation (2010–2012). In 2013, we instituted e-consult programme (2013–2019) for referrals cardiologists that preceded patient’s when considered. used interrupted...
Abstract Background The prevalence of cancer patients with concomitant cardiovascular (CV) disease is on the rise due to improved prognoses. aim this study evaluate long‐term outcomes referred a cardiology department (CD) via primary care using e‐consultation. Methods We analysed data from prior referrals CD between 2010 and 2021 ( n = 6889) compared two models: traditional in‐person consultations e‐consultations. In e‐consultation model, cardiologists reviewed electronic health records...
Abstract Aims To evaluate the impact of an outpatient care management programme that includes a clinician-to-clinician e-consultation on delay time in care, hospital admissions, and mortality high-risk group patients with heart failure (HF) previous episodes HF hospitalization (HFH). Methods results We selected 6444 who visited cardiology service at least once between 2010 2021. Of these, 4851 were attended e-consult, 2230 had HFH. Using interrupted series regression model, we analysed...
Abstract Background Successful recanalization does not lead to complete tissue reperfusion in a considerable percentage of ischemic stroke patients. This study aimed identify biomarkers associated with futile recanalization. Leukoaraiosis predicts poor outcomes this phenomenon. Soluble tumour necrosis factor‐like weak inducer apoptosis (sTWEAK), which is leukoaraiosis degrees, could be potential biomarker. Methods includes two cohorts patients multicentre retrospective observational study....
To investigate the association between elapsed time to cardiology care following a primary physician (PCP) referral and 1 year outcomes among patients with heart failure (HF).
An early diagnosis and initiation of oral anticoagulants (OAC) are main determinants for outcomes in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). Inter-clinician electronic consultations (e-consultations) program the general practitioner referrals to cardiologist may improve health care access by reducing elapsed time cardiology care.To evaluate effect a reduced after inter-clinician e-consultations implementation (2013-2019) comparison previous in-person consultation (2010-2012) outpatient...
Background: Telemedicine has been incorporated into daily clinical practice. The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the economic impact electronic consultation as a means referring patients between Primary Care (PC) services and referral Cardiology Service (CS) tertiary hospital, in particular, cost reduced air pollution. Methods: direct indirect costs associated with all interconsultations PC CS hospital were analyzed under universal single act model versus prior e-consultation that...
