Varicose Veins II: Diagnostic Studies and Interprofessional Care

Varicose Veins II: Diagnostic Studies and Interprofessional Care

Varicose veins, or varicosities, develop when the valves in the veins, which control blood flow, weaken or damage. It causes blood to pool and the veins to enlarge. Understanding the clinical manifestations, diagnostic approaches, and management options for varicose veins is crucial for effective treatment and relief.Clinical manifestationsClinical manifestations of varicose veins include a heavy, achy feeling or pain after prolonged standing or sitting. This discomfort can often be relieved by...

Pulmonary Embolism II: Diagnostic Studies and Interprofessional Care

Pulmonary Embolism II: Diagnostic Studies and Interprofessional Care

Diagnosing Pulmonary EmbolismDiagnosing pulmonary embolism (PE) involves clinical assessment and advanced imaging tests. The preferred diagnostic tool is the spiral (helical) CT scan or CT angiography (CTA), which uses intravenous contrast media to visualize the pulmonary vasculature and identify emboli.A ventilation-perfusion (V/Q) scan is an alternative for patients unable to receive contrast media. This scan includes both perfusion and ventilation scanning. Perfusion scanning involves...

Urinary Tract Infection III: Diagnostic Studies and Interprofessional Care

Urinary Tract Infection III: Diagnostic Studies and Interprofessional Care

A healthcare provider can diagnose a urinary tract infection (UTI) through several methods:Medical History and Symptoms: The provider will take a detailed medical history and ask about symptoms such as frequent urination, burning sensation during urination, and lower abdominal pain.Urinalysis: A clean-catch urine sample is collected in a sterile container and tested for the presence of bacteria, white blood cells (leukocytes), nitrites, blood, and protein. The presence of leukocytes and...

Continuing Care

Continuing Care

Continuing care describes the variety of health, personal, and social services provided over a prolonged period. The need for continuing care is increasing because people are living longer. Many people do not have families or others to care for them. Continuing care is mainly for patients who are disabled, functionally dependent, or suffering from a terminal disease. It is available within institutional settings or in homes. Examples include nursing centers or facilities, assisted living,...

Area of Science:

Health Informatics
Epidemiology
Primary Care Research

Background:

Electronic Health Records (EHRs) offer a valuable, yet often underutilized, source of data for medical research.
Establishing robust data collection pipelines from diverse primary care settings is crucial for large-scale health studies.

Purpose of the Study:

To assess the feasibility of creating a research database from primary care EHR data.
To demonstrate the utility of such a database for epidemiological research and practice assessment.

Main Methods:

Analysis of EHR software models and anonymized data extraction.
Implementation of an Extract, Transform, Load (ETL) process for data standardization (ICPC2 codes).
Inclusion of data from eleven general practitioners (GPs) spanning 2012-2015.

Main Results:

Successful extraction and integration of anonymized EHR data into a MySQL research database.
Demonstrated utility of the database for calculating epidemiological indicators.
Established a framework for a regional primary care data observatory.

Conclusions:

The PRIMEGE PACA project successfully established a feasible framework for EHR data aggregation.
This methodology provides a robust foundation for ongoing primary care research and surveillance.
Expansion to include more GPs and software systems is planned to enhance the observatory's scope.
