Methods Of Healthcare Delivery System01:26

Methods Of Healthcare Delivery System

4.3K
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...

International Nursing Organizations II

1.5K
The World Health Organization (WHO) is a specialized agency of the United Nations based in Geneva. The WHO has many initiatives that center around health. Primarily, they lead global efforts to expand universal health coverage using science-based policies and programs. They are also responsible for shaping health research agendas and developing norms and standards.
The WHO provides expert team support, including funding, vaccines, testing, and treatment tools at the country level to fight...

Primary Healthcare Services01:30

Primary Healthcare Services

2.7K
Primary care promotes wellness and prevents disease. This care includes health promotion, education, protection (such as immunizations), early disease screening, and environmental considerations. Settings providing this type of healthcare include physician offices, public health clinics, school nursing, and community health nursing.
In 1978, international leaders convened in Alma-Ata, Kazakhstan, for what would be a pivotal event in global health. The Alma-Ata Declaration was the first to call...

Maslow's Theory of Basic Human Needs01:28

Maslow's Theory of Basic Human Needs

3.5K
Maslow's hierarchy is described with the help of a pyramidal shape. The most fundamental needs, physiological needs, are at the bottom of the pyramid.
Physiological needs such as hunger, thirst, sex, physical comfort, and survival are at the bottom of the pyramid. These are the components that are necessary to sustain life. Once the first level of needs has been met, the second level arises.
Safety needs include stability and predictability. Protection and freedom from danger are all a part...

Maslow's Need Hierarchy Theory

1.4K
Abraham Maslow's theory of motivation, introduced in 1943, is widely known as the "Hierarchy of Needs." This theory posits that human needs are arranged in a hierarchical structure, starting with basic survival needs and progressing toward more complex psychological and self-fulfillment desires. The hierarchy is typically a pyramid, and the lower needs must be satisfied to reach the next level.
At the pyramid's base are physiological needs, including food, water, and shelter...

Principles of Disease Surveillance01:26

Principles of Disease Surveillance

794
Disease surveillance is the systematic collection, analysis, and interpretation of health data essential to the planning, implementation, and evaluation of public health practice. This process integrates data dissemination to entities responsible for preventing and controlling disease, injury, and disability. Surveillance systems provide crucial information for action, helping public health authorities make informed decisions to manage and prevent outbreaks, ensure public safety, optimize...

Area of Science:

  • Global Health Research
  • Health Systems Strengthening
  • Research Policy and Funding

Background:

  • Major global health research initiatives, including the Global Forum for Health Research and WHO's Department for Research Policy and Cooperation, have recently ceased operations.
  • This decline necessitates an examination of factors influencing the sustainability of global health research coordination in the 21st century.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze the evolution of the global health research system.
  • To propose a framework for enhancing the efficiency of global health research support and coordination.

Main Methods:

  • Historical review of global health research governance, support, and coordination efforts.
  • Analysis of funding flow changes in global health research over the past decade.
  • Mapping the structure and dynamics of the global health research system.

Main Results:

  • The global health research system has evolved rapidly and spontaneously, with varying degrees of efficiency.
  • Five key needs for an effective system emerged: coordinated donor funding, research prioritization, rapid recognition of results, broad dissemination, and investment evaluation.
  • Existing solutions for prioritization (e.g., CHNRI) and dissemination (e.g., PLoS One) show promise.

Conclusions:

  • While the global health research system is not optimally efficient, targeted solutions can improve its performance.
  • Further development is needed for tools to coordinate donor funding and evaluate research return on investment.
  • Enhancing coordination and evaluation is crucial for maximizing the impact of global health research investments.
