Issues And Trends In Healthcare Delivery System01:29

Issues And Trends In Healthcare Delivery System

The issues and trends in healthcare delivery are constantly changing. The COVID-19 pandemic is one recent issue that wreaked havoc on healthcare systems, causing a shortage of healthcare workers, high demand for medicines and supplies, and increased medical expenditure due to a lack of insurance. Other issues include rising healthcare costs and care fragmentation.
Cost Containment
Payment for healthcare services has historically promoted adoption of costly and often unnecessary or inefficient...

Health Information Technology and Healthcare Information System

Health Information Technology (HIT)
Health Information Technology, commonly called HIT, integrates advanced information systems and technology in healthcare settings. Its primary functions include:
Reducing Line Loss01:18

Reducing Line Loss

In a three-phase circuit, line loss is an indicator of energy dissipated as heat due to the resistance of transmission lines. To address this, incorporating transformers into the system—a step-up transformer at the source and a step-down transformer at the load—is a strategic solution. Two three-phase transformers are introduced to improve this.
With a step-up transformer at the source, the voltage is increased, thereby reducing the current in the transmission lines since power loss in...
PPE Use in Healthcare Settings I: Donning01:22

PPE Use in Healthcare Settings I: Donning

Donning PPE must be completed before contact with the patient. This process protects from infectious agents. The sequence and action included in each donning are critical, and the steps must be systematic to avoid exposure to pathogens. The institutional policy also needs to be followed while donning PPE. The pre-donning preparations are gathering equipment, inspecting the PPE equipment for tears, holes, or damage, removing jewelry, removing any garments below the elbows, and tying the hair...
Obesity01:24

Obesity

The Body Mass Index (BMI) is a numerical value derived from a person's weight and height, used to categorize individuals into weight ranges. It is calculated using the formula: weight in kilograms divided by height in meters squared. Obesity is a health condition characterized by excessive accumulation of adipose tissue that poses health risks, often diagnosed with a BMI ≥ 30. This excess fat storage occurs when surplus dietary calories are converted into triglycerides and stored in adipocytes...
Methods Of Healthcare Delivery System01:26

Methods Of Healthcare Delivery System

At the different levels of the healthcare system, we see varying methods of healthcare used. These methods include managed care systems, case management, and primary healthcare.
Managed Care System:
The managed care system is designed to control the cost while maintaining the quality of care. The patient's care from admission to discharge is planned by the primary care provider or the case manager, also known as the gatekeeper. In a managed care system, the number of care providers is limited...

Background:

  • Catastrophic birth injuries can result from deviations in the standard of care.
  • Healthcare networks face challenges in translating theoretical care standards into bedside practice.
  • Risk reduction necessitates effective monitoring and adherence to clinical guidelines.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To outline criteria for transforming obstetric care from theory to practice.
  • To demonstrate the effectiveness of a technological solution in improving bedside care.
  • To illustrate the benefits of a healthcare and technology partnership for risk reduction.

Main Methods:

  • Formation of an OB Risk Reduction Task Force.
  • Identification of criteria for care transformation: real-time alerts and reliable data monitoring.
  • Selection and implementation of a technological solution.

Main Results:

  • Protocol-driven alerts assist healthcare providers in meeting clinical guidelines.
  • Reliable data production enables monitoring and measurement of adherence to care standards.
  • A collaborative partnership model facilitated performance improvement and risk reduction.

Conclusions:

  • Technological solutions are crucial for implementing evidence-based practices at the bedside.
  • Strong partnerships between healthcare providers and technology developers are key to successful risk reduction.
