Data Reporting and Recording01:24

Data Reporting and Recording

5.5K
Reporting and recording are crucial in data documentation. The timely, thorough, and accurate documentation of facts is essential when recording patient data. Failure to record findings during an assessment or interpretation of a problem will result in loss of information and make the patient document unreliable. The reader is left with general impressions if the information is not specific. A recording is documenting data of the individual's health information in a traceable, secure, and...

Anatomy of the Heart01:27

Anatomy of the Heart

120.7K
The human heart is made up of three layers of tissue that are surrounded by the pericardium, a membrane that protects and confines the heart. The outermost layer, closest to the pericardium, is the epicardium. The pericardial cavity separates the pericardium from the epicardium. Beneath the epicardium is the myocardium, the middle layer, and the endocardium, the innermost layer. There are four chambers of the heart: the right atrium, the right ventricle, the left atrium, and the left ventricle.

How Data are Classified: Categorical Data01:11

How Data are Classified: Categorical Data

45.5K
A variable, usually notated by capital letters such as X and Y, is a characteristic or measurement that can be determined for each member of a population. Data are the actual values of variables. They may be numbers, or they may be words. Datum is a single value.
Data are classified based on whether they are measurable or not. Categorical data cannot be measured; instead, it can be divided into categories. For example, if Y denotes a person's party affiliation, some examples of Y include...

How Data are Classified: Numerical Data

38.6K
Data that are countable or measurable in specific units are called numerical or quantitative data. Quantitative data are always numbers. Quantitative data are the result of counting or measuring the attributes of a population. Amount of money, pulse rate, weight, number of people living in a town, and number of students who opt for statistics are examples of quantitative data.
Quantitative data may be either discrete or continuous. All quantitative data that take on only specific numerical...

Area of Science:

  • Cardiology
  • Transplant Surgery
  • Public Health

Background:

  • The number of heart transplants performed annually in the United States has seen an increase.
  • The population of heart transplant recipients has grown, with a notable rise in adult survivors.
  • Trends in pediatric heart transplantation show an upward trajectory in both candidate listings and procedures performed.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze trends in heart transplantation in the United States from 2005 to 2016.
  • To assess changes in the number of heart transplant procedures, patient survival, and mortality rates.
  • To examine the specific trends in pediatric heart transplantation, including candidate numbers and outcomes.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective analysis of heart transplant data from 2005 to 2016.
  • Examination of national statistics on heart transplant procedures, patient listings, and survival.
  • Focus on changes in adult and pediatric heart transplant recipient numbers and mortality.

Main Results:

  • In 2016, 3,209 heart transplants were conducted in the U.S., with new listings up 57% since 2005.
  • The number of adult heart transplant survivors reached 30,622 in 2016, and patient mortality has decreased.
  • Pediatric heart transplants increased, with new listings rising to 624 and procedures to 445 in 2016. Pediatric 1-year mortality was 7.2% for those transplanted in 2015.

Conclusions:

  • Heart transplantation in the U.S. is experiencing growth in procedures and patient survival.
  • There is a significant increase in both adult and pediatric heart transplant recipients.
  • Declining mortality rates suggest improvements in post-transplant care and outcomes for heart transplant patients.
