Hospitals-II

1.2K
Hospitals provide inpatient and outpatient services. Inpatient services provide care to patients that stay in the hospital for an extended period, ranging from days to months. Examples of inpatient services include intensive care units, hospital wards, or surgeries. Outpatient services provide care to patients who come to a hospital for a diagnostic or treatment but do not stay overnight —for example, diagnostic tests, surgical procedures, or health education.

Hospitals-I

Hospitals offer medical and surgical care to the sick and injured, along with accommodation while they recover. At the same time, they also provide outpatient, emergency, psychiatric, and rehabilitation services to meet various community needs. In addition to providing medical care, hospitals also act as hubs for medical research and training. Hospitals use clinical procedures and evidence-based practice standards to deliver patient care. To deliver safe and efficient care, a nurse must stay up...

Linear time-invariant Systems01:23

Linear time-invariant Systems

934
A system is linear if it displays the characteristics of homogeneity and additivity, together termed the superposition property. This principle is fundamental in all linear systems. Linear time-invariant (LTI) systems include systems with linear elements and constant parameters.
The input-output behavior of an LTI system can be fully defined by its response to an impulsive excitation at its input. Once this impulse response is known, the system's reaction to any other input can be...

Dosage Regimens: Designs and Approaches

322
Designing a dosage regimen, which refers to the manner of drug administration, is a complex process involving the selection of drug dose, route, and frequency. This process is underpinned by pharmacokinetic parameters derived from tests and population averages. These parameters are then tailored to patient-specific variables such as diagnosis, demographics, and allergy status. Once therapy commences, therapeutic response monitoring is critical and achieved through clinical and physical...

Real Time RT-PCR02:57

Real Time RT-PCR

65.3K
Real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction, or Real-time RT-PCR, is an analytical tool used to determine the expression level of target genes. The method involves converting mRNA to complementary DNA with the help of an enzyme known as reverse transcriptase, followed by the PCR amplification of the cDNA. These two processes can be performed simultaneously in a single tube or separately as a two-step reaction.
The real-time quantification of the number of amplified products is...

Healthcare Agencies II01:17

Healthcare Agencies II

1.1K
There are various healthcare agencies in the United States—some of which are managed by religious institutions and others by different government branches.
Parish nursing is a growing specialty nursing profession that focuses on holistic healthcare, health promotion, and illness prevention. It blends professional nursing practice with a health ministry, focusing on health and healing within the context of a Christian community. Parish nurses serve as health educators, referral sources,...

Area of Science:

  • Health Informatics
  • Systems Engineering
  • Patient Care Management

Background:

  • Millions of patients recover post-discharge outside traditional healthcare organizations (HCOs) during transitional care periods (TCPs).
  • Unplanned hospital readmissions during TCPs negatively impact care quality and increase costs.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose a real-time, patient-centric system to reduce unplanned hospital readmissions.
  • To enhance patient support during recovery outside formal healthcare settings.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized discrete-event system modeling and supervisory control theory for system design.
  • Developed a system centered around applications for patient monitoring and support.
  • Conducted simulation analysis to evaluate system effectiveness.

Main Results:

  • The proposed system effectively documents patient condition and health-related behaviors.
  • Demonstrated the system's capability to support discharged patients at home or work.
  • Simulation results indicate a reduction in unplanned hospital readmissions.

Conclusions:

  • The patient-centric system offers a cost-effective solution for monitoring discharged patients.
  • The system maintains or improves the quality of care while reducing readmission rates.
  • This approach facilitates better patient recovery outside of formal healthcare organizations.
