Types of Reports II: Incident or Occurrence Report

1.4K
An Incident or Occurrence Report in a healthcare setting is a crucial document used to record any unexpected occurrence that may or may not have affected a patient, employee, or visitor. Such reports are critical to improving patient safety and include all details leading up to and including the event.
Purposes:
In the healthcare industry, reports play a crucial role in documenting incidents within an agency. The primary objective of these reports is to ensure patient safety, uphold the...

Methods of Documentation VII: EMR

1.6K
Electronic Medical Records (EMRs) primarily center around electronically documenting patients' health information within a single healthcare organization or practice. They contain essential clinical data related to a patient's medical history, diagnoses, medications, treatment plans, lab results, and other pertinent information relevant to the specific encounter or episode of care. EMRs are designed to streamline documentation and workflow processes within individual healthcare...

Diagnosing acute coronary syndrome or ACS begins with a thorough patient history. Notable symptoms include central, crushing chest pain radiating to the left arm, neck, jaw, or back, along with shortness of breath, sweating (diaphoresis), nausea, vomiting, dizziness, and palpitations.It is crucial to note any history of cardiac illnesses and assess risk factors, including age, gender, smoking, hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, and a sedentary lifestyle.During physical examination, vital...

Problem-intervention-evaluation (PIE) is a systematic approach to documentation used in healthcare settings for clinical decision-making and patient care planning. It is a structured approach to organizing patient data based on problems, interventions, and evaluations. Here's a breakdown of its key features and considerations:

The Problem-Oriented Medical Record (POMR) revolutionized medical record-keeping by introducing a systematic approach focusing on the patient's problems rather than merely listing symptoms. Dr. Lawrence Weed's introduction of this method in the 1960s marked a significant advancement in medical documentation. The POMR framework consists of four key components: the database, problem list, plan of care, and progress notes.

Summary

Hospital resource use, including imaging and allied health services, correlates with increased 30-day mortality risk. Higher utilization of these resources indicates greater patient complexity and poorer outcomes.

Area of Science:

  • Healthcare Management
  • Clinical Epidemiology
  • Health Services Research

Background:

  • Rising demand for hospital resources necessitates understanding trends in utilization.
  • Patient complexity and clinical risk are key factors influencing resource allocation.
  • The relationship between resource utilization and patient outcomes requires ongoing investigation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To examine trends in emergency admission resource utilization from 2005 to 2013.
  • To determine if resource utilization correlates with clinical risk and 30-day in-hospital mortality.
  • To validate the use of hospital resources based on patient complexity and mortality.

Main Methods:

  • Analysis of 51,136 emergency admissions between 2005 and 2013.
  • Logistic regression modeling to assess the association between resource indicators and 30-day mortality.
  • Adjustment for other predictors of in-hospital mortality to refine risk estimates.

Main Results:

  • Increased use of radiological investigations (CT scans) and allied health services (Physiotherapy, Dietetics, Speech and Language, Occupational Therapy, Social Work) over time.
  • Resource indicators were generally associated with increased 30-day in-hospital mortality.
  • Odds Ratios for mortality ranged from 1.37 for CT Brain to 5.29 for Speech and Language services.
  • In-hospital 30-day mortality increased from 4.7% (no resources) to 27.0% (five resources).

Conclusions:

  • Resource utilization, including advanced imaging and allied health professionals, is linked to higher 30-day mortality in acute medical illness.
  • Patient complexity appears to drive the need for and justify the use of these resources.
  • Findings suggest that resource utilization serves as a valid indicator of patient acuity and associated risk.
