Summary
Shorter doctor visits, like Spain
Area of Science:
- Healthcare Management
- Medical Ethics
- Patient Care
Background:
- A trend towards reduced office visit durations is evident in healthcare.
- In some Spanish regions, visits are limited to 6 minutes per patient.
- This reduction impacts medical practice, doctor-patient relationships, and the perception of healthcare.
Purpose of the Study:
- To analyze the consequences of reduced medical visit durations.
- To examine the effects on doctor-patient relationships and healthcare quality.
- To highlight the negative impacts on medical practice and patient outcomes.
Main Methods:
- Qualitative analysis of healthcare trends.
- Review of societal influences on healthcare delivery.
- Examination of consequences in clinical practice.
Main Results:
- Reduced visit times impede complete medical acts and doctor-patient bonding.
- Healthcare is increasingly viewed as a market commodity, prioritizing immediacy.
- Consequences include increased testing, avoidable treatments, iatrogenesis, and reduced adherence.
Conclusions:
- Shortened consultations negatively affect medical practice and patient care.
- This trend leads to increased healthcare costs and diminished quality of care.
- Pediatric care faces risks of missed critical screening opportunities.

Electron Configuration of Multielectron Atoms
65.4K
The alkali metal sodium (atomic number 11) has one more electron than the neon atom. This electron must go into the lowest-energy subshell available, the 3s orbital, giving a 1s22s22p63s1 configuration. The electrons occupying the outermost shell orbital(s) (highest value of n) are called valence electrons, and those occupying the inner shell orbitals are called core electrons. Since the core electron shells correspond to noble gas electron configurations, we can abbreviate electron...

Energy-requiring Steps of Glycolysis
172.2K
Glucose is the source of nearly all energy used by organisms. The first step of converting glucose into usable energy is called glycolysis. Glycolysis occurs in the cytosol of the cell over two phases: an energy-requiring phase and an energy-releasing phase. Over the first three steps, glucose is converted into different forms and attached to two phosphate groups donated by two ATP molecules, resulting in an unstable sugar. In the next two stages, the unstable sugar splits into two sugar...

Coordination Number and Geometry
19.1K
For transition metal complexes, the coordination number determines the geometry around the central metal ion. Table 1 compares coordination numbers to molecular geometry. The most common structures of the complexes in coordination compounds are octahedral, tetrahedral, and square planar.

Chemical Formulas
61.9K
A chemical formula presents information about the proportions of atoms constituting a particular chemical compound or molecule, mainly using symbols of elements and numbers. At times other symbols, such as dashes, parentheses, brackets, commas, plus, and minus signs, are also used. A chemical formula can be one of three types – molecular, empirical, and structural.

Weak Acid Solutions
43.6K
Few compounds act as strong acids. A far greater number of compounds behave as weak acids and only partially react with water, leaving a large majority of dissolved molecules in their original form and generating a relatively small amount of hydronium ions. Weak acids are commonly encountered in nature, being the substances partly responsible for the tangy taste of citrus fruits, the stinging sensation of insect bites, and the unpleasant smells associated with body odor. A familiar example of a...

Cofactors and Coenzymes
87.8K
Enzymes require additional components for proper function. There are two such classes of molecules: cofactors and coenzymes. Cofactors are metallic ions and coenzymes are non-protein organic molecules. Both of these types of helper molecule can be tightly bound to the enzyme or bound only when the substrate binds.
