Trends in nursing are multifactorial and associated with changes in society, within the nursing profession, and in other professions. Notably, telehealth and remote nursing contribute to successful healthcare delivery for numerous patients and help reduce stress for nurses due to nursing shortages. Nurses can reach patients, monitor their conditions, and interact with them using computers, audio, visual accessories, and telephones—for example, remote patient monitoring systems. Likewise,...

Facilitated Transport

148.1K
The chemical and physical properties of plasma membranes cause them to be selectively permeable. Since plasma membranes have both hydrophobic and hydrophilic regions, substances need to be able to transverse both regions. The hydrophobic area of membranes repels substances such as charged ions. Therefore, such substances need special membrane proteins to cross a membrane successfully. In  facilitated transport, also known as facilitated diffusion, molecules and ions travel across a...

Issues And Trends In Healthcare Delivery System

6.3K
The issues and trends in healthcare delivery are constantly changing. The COVID-19 pandemic is one recent issue that wreaked havoc on healthcare systems, causing a shortage of healthcare workers, high demand for medicines and supplies, and increased medical expenditure due to a lack of insurance. Other issues include rising healthcare costs and care fragmentation.

Primary Active Transport01:47

Primary Active Transport

198.5K
In contrast to passive transport, active transport involves a substance being moved through membranes in a direction against its concentration or electrochemical gradient. There are two types of active transport: primary active transport and secondary active transport. Primary active transport utilizes chemical energy from ATP to drive protein pumps that are embedded in the cell membrane. With energy from ATP, the pumps transport ions against their electrochemical gradients—a direction...

Secondary Active Transport

137.9K
One example of how cells use the energy contained in electrochemical gradients is demonstrated by glucose transport into cells. The ion vital to this process is sodium (Na+), which is typically present in higher concentrations extracellularly than in the cytosol. Such a concentration difference is due, in part, to the action of an enzyme “pump” embedded in the cellular membrane that actively expels Na+ from a cell. Importantly, as this pump contributes to the high concentration of...

Area of Science:

  • Neonatal medicine
  • Transport medicine
  • Medical quality improvement

Background:

  • Organized neonatal transport emerged in the 1940s, evolving with clinical advancements and technology.
  • Modern neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) increasingly focus on mobile care delivery.
  • There is a growing emphasis on quality metrics and simulation-based training for transport teams.

Observation:

  • Emerging therapies, including active cooling for neuroprotective hypothermia and high-frequency ventilation, are now utilized in transport.
  • These evidence-based interventions aim to enhance clinical outcomes for neonates during transport.
  • Neonatal transport programs are increasingly seeking accreditation.

Findings:

  • Simulation-based training enhances individual and team competence in neonatal transport.
  • Advanced therapies improve the quality of care delivered during neonatal transport.
  • Accreditation serves as a benchmark for program competency and adherence to standards.

Implications:

  • The evolution of neonatal transport enhances the delivery of critical care to vulnerable infants.
  • Accreditation of transport programs promotes standardized, high-quality care.
  • Continued integration of advanced therapies and training will further improve neonatal outcomes.
