Data Reporting and Recording01:24

Data Reporting and Recording

5.4K
Reporting and recording are crucial in data documentation. The timely, thorough, and accurate documentation of facts is essential when recording patient data. Failure to record findings during an assessment or interpretation of a problem will result in loss of information and make the patient document unreliable. The reader is left with general impressions if the information is not specific. A recording is documenting data of the individual's health information in a traceable, secure, and...

Anatomy of the Heart01:27

Anatomy of the Heart

119.7K
The human heart is made up of three layers of tissue that are surrounded by the pericardium, a membrane that protects and confines the heart. The outermost layer, closest to the pericardium, is the epicardium. The pericardial cavity separates the pericardium from the epicardium. Beneath the epicardium is the myocardium, the middle layer, and the endocardium, the innermost layer. There are four chambers of the heart: the right atrium, the right ventricle, the left atrium, and the left ventricle.

How Data are Classified: Categorical Data01:11

How Data are Classified: Categorical Data

44.2K
A variable, usually notated by capital letters such as X and Y, is a characteristic or measurement that can be determined for each member of a population. Data are the actual values of variables. They may be numbers, or they may be words. Datum is a single value.
Data are classified based on whether they are measurable or not. Categorical data cannot be measured; instead, it can be divided into categories. For example, if Y denotes a person's party affiliation, some examples of Y include...

How Data are Classified: Numerical Data

37.7K
Data that are countable or measurable in specific units are called numerical or quantitative data. Quantitative data are always numbers. Quantitative data are the result of counting or measuring the attributes of a population. Amount of money, pulse rate, weight, number of people living in a town, and number of students who opt for statistics are examples of quantitative data.
Quantitative data may be either discrete or continuous. All quantitative data that take on only specific numerical...

Area of Science:

  • Cardiology
  • Transplant Surgery
  • Public Health

Background:

  • Heart transplantation is a critical treatment for end-stage heart failure.
  • The demand for heart transplants has been increasing over the past decade.
  • Improvements in medical care have the potential to enhance post-transplant outcomes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze trends in adult and pediatric heart transplant listings and procedures in the United States.
  • To evaluate changes in post-transplant mortality over the past decade.
  • To assess short-term and long-term survival rates for pediatric heart transplant recipients.

Main Methods:

  • Analysis of national heart transplant data from 2007 to 2017.
  • Tracking of new patient listings for heart transplantation.
  • Monitoring the number of heart transplant procedures performed.
  • Calculating and comparing post-transplant mortality rates.

Main Results:

  • In 2017, 3273 heart transplants were performed, with 3769 new adult listings.
  • Pediatric heart transplant listings increased from 481 (2007) to 623 (2017), with 432 procedures in 2017.
  • Post-transplant mortality has declined over the past decade.
  • For pediatric patients transplanted in 2015-2016, 6-month mortality was 4.8% and 1-year mortality was 6.2%.

Conclusions:

  • The number of heart transplants and patient listings is increasing, particularly for pediatric candidates.
  • Survival rates following heart transplantation have shown significant improvement.
  • Ongoing monitoring and advancements are crucial for further enhancing patient outcomes in heart transplantation.
