Objectives To create a risk prediction rule for delirium in elderly adults the emergency department ( ED ) and to compare mortality resource use of with without delirium. Design Prospective observational study. Setting Urban tertiary care . Participants Individuals aged 65 older presenting N = 700). Measurements A trained research assistant performed structured mental status assessment attention tests, after which was determined using C onfusion ssessment M ethod. Data were collected on...
The objectives of this study were to describe the reach and adoption Geriatric Emergency Department Accreditation (GEDA) program care processes instituted at accredited geriatric emergency departments (EDs).We analyzed a cross-section cohort US EDs that received GEDA from May 2018 March 2021. We obtained data American College Physicians publicly available sources. Data included level, geographic location, urban/rural designation, instituted. Frequencies proportions median interquartile...
To ascertain the long-term natural history of fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS).Patients with a FMS, seen in an academic rheumatology referral practice, were originally surveyed soon after onset symptoms, and then reinterviewed 10 years later prospective followup cohort study. A validated telephone survey was administered that inquired into current medical care treatments used, work disability. The results compared prior surveys.Of original 39 patients, there 4 deaths. Of remaining 35 29 (83%)...
The global COVID-19 pandemic has become one of the largest clinical and operational challenges faced by emergency medicine, our EDs continue to see increased volumes infected patients, many whom are not only ill, but acutely aware fearful their circumstances potential mortality. Given this, there may be no more important time focus on staff-patient communication expression compassion.However, techniques usually employed clinicians provide comfort patients families made challenging or...
Importance Emergency department (ED) triage substantially affects how long patients wait for care but scoring relies on few objective criteria. Prior studies suggest that Black and Hispanic receive unequal scores, paralleled by disparities in the depth of physician evaluations. Objectives To examine whether racial scores evaluations are present across a multicenter network academic community hospitals evaluate who do not speak English face similar disparities. Design, Setting, Participants...
Abstract Background Research to date has detailed numerous challenges in emergency department (ED) communication with persons living dementia (PLWD) and their caregivers. However, little is known about experiences of individuals belonging minoritized racial ethnic groups, who are disproportionately impacted by less likely be included research. Methods We conducted semi‐structured interviews 29 caregivers PLWD from two urban academic hospital EDs distinct patient populations. The first site...
Abstract Objectives: An important challenge faced by emergency physicians (EPs) is determining which patients should be admitted to an intensive care unit (ICU) and can safely a regular ward. Understanding risk factors leading undertriage would useful, but these are not well characterized. Methods: The authors performed secondary analysis of two prospective, observational studies the hospital with clinically suspected infection from urban university department (ED). Inclusion criteria were...
Inherited BRCA1 mutations confer elevated cancer risk. Recent studies have identified genes that encode proteins interact with as modifiers of BRCA1-associated breast cancer. We evaluated a comprehensive set most known interactors to evaluate the role these A cohort 2,825 mutation carriers was used association haplotypes at ATM, BRCC36, BRCC45 (BRE), BRIP1 (BACH1/FANCJ), CTIP, ABRA1 (FAM175A), MERIT40, MRE11A, NBS1, PALB2 (FANCN), RAD50, RAD51, RAP80, and TOPBP1, associated time ovarian...
