Tertiary Healthcare System01:21

Tertiary Healthcare System

2.2K
Specialized care provided over an extended period is called tertiary care. Usually, a primary or secondary care physician will refer a patient to tertiary care. A patient's maximum physical and mental function is restored in tertiary care, which is caused due to the impact of a chronic illness or condition. Tertiary care aims to achieve the highest level of functioning possible while managing chronic illness. For example, a patient who falls and fractures their hip will need secondary care...

Nomenclature of Secondary and Tertiary Amines01:12

Nomenclature of Secondary and Tertiary Amines

5.2K
The secondary and tertiary amines are derivatives of ammonia, where two and three of its hydrogens are replaced by alkyl groups, respectively. Secondary and tertiary amines can be symmetrical with identical alkyl groups attached to the nitrogen atom or unsymmetrical when more than one type of alkyl group is present. The standard nomenclature of secondary and tertiary amines is similar to the names given to the primary amines. They are generally named alkylamines. As depicted in Figure 1, for...

Fractures: Bone Repair01:27

Fractures: Bone Repair

5.5K
Treatment for a fracture is based on the type of break, the bone affected, and the patient's age.
Minor fractures with no bone displacement are treated by immobilizing the fractured bone using a cast or splint. However, in the case of fractures with displaced bones, the broken bones are repositioned before immobilization to ensure successful healing without deformation and loss of function. The realignment of fractured bone ends is performed through a process called reduction. If the...

Continuing Care01:25

Continuing Care

2.0K
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:

    • Pediatric Surgery
    • Healthcare Access
    • Family Medicine

    Background:

    • Limited pediatric subspecialty care access outside urban centers necessitates tertiary hospital referrals.
    • Referral-based care for urgent pediatric surgical procedures creates significant burdens for families.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the financial, organizational, and psychological impact on families of children undergoing brief, urgent surgical procedures at a tertiary care hospital.

    Main Methods:

    • Prospective survey methodology was employed.
    • Families of children (0-18 years) admitted for fracture repair surgery were surveyed.
    • Questionnaires assessed various aspects of the family's experience.

    Main Results:

    • Procedures were often brief (<1 hour), but hospital stays extended up to 36 hours.
    • Families experienced significant work absences.
    • Prolonged NPO (nothing by mouth) status was noted for many children.

    Conclusions:

    • Even minor, unexpected pediatric surgeries impose substantial financial, organizational, and psychological burdens on families.
    • The study underscores the challenges associated with accessing specialized pediatric surgical care.
