Issues And Trends In Healthcare Delivery System

6.2K
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.
Cost Containment
Payment for healthcare services has historically promoted adoption of costly and often unnecessary or inefficient...

Transcription Factors02:16

Transcription Factors

82.3K
Tissue-specific transcription factors contribute to diverse cellular functions in mammals. For example, the gene for beta globin, a major component of hemoglobin, is present in all cells of the body. However, it is only expressed in red blood cells because the transcription factors that can bind to the promoter sequences of the beta globin gene are only expressed in these cells. Tissue-specific transcription factors also ensure that mutations in these factors may impair only the function of...

Factors Affecting Solubility

36.7K
Compared with pure water, the solubility of an ionic compound is less in aqueous solutions containing a common ion (one also produced by dissolution of the ionic compound). This is an example of a phenomenon known as the common ion effect, which is a consequence of the law of mass action that may be explained using Le Chȃtelier’s principle. Consider the dissolution of silver iodide:

Transcription Elongation Factors02:35

Transcription Elongation Factors

13.5K
Transcription elongation is a dynamic process that alters depending upon the sequence heterogeneity of the DNA being transcribed. Hence, it is not surprising that the elongation complex's composition also varies along the way while transcribing a gene.
The transcription elongation is regulated via pausing of RNA polymerase on several occasions during transcription. In bacteria, these halts are necessary because the transcription of DNA into mRNA is coupled to the translation of that mRNA...

Factors Affecting Drug Distribution: Miscellaneous Factors

957
Drug distribution in the human body is a complex process influenced by various individual factors, including age, pregnancy, obesity, diet, body water composition, pH levels, and specific disease conditions.
Age plays a significant role due to differences in body composition among different age groups. Infants, for instance, have a higher proportion of total body water and lower albumin levels, a protein that binds drugs in the bloodstream. This unique composition in infants enhances the...

Area of Science:

  • Medical Informatics
  • Human Factors (HF)
  • Healthcare Systems Engineering

Background:

  • Medical informatics research increasingly recognizes the importance of human factors (HF) and organizational issues.
  • Understanding these elements is crucial for effective design and implementation of health information technology (HIT).
  • The year 2018 saw significant contributions to this field.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To identify and summarize the most significant research contributions in human factors and organizational issues within medical informatics published in 2018.
  • To highlight exemplary studies demonstrating the value of HF in HIT.

Main Methods:

  • An extensive literature search was performed using PubMed/Medline and Web of Science.
  • A multi-step selection process involved initial editor screening, external expert review, and final editorial board selection.
  • Four best papers were identified from the 2018 publications.

Main Results:

  • The four selected papers represent excellent contributions to the human factors literature.
  • These studies effectively illustrate the added value of HF research through rigorous and well-presented interventions.
  • The findings underscore the potential of HF to enhance HIT design.

Conclusions:

  • Human factors interventions hold significant promise for efficient HIT design.
  • Challenges remain in demonstrating the tangible value of these interventions to key healthcare stakeholders.
  • There is a critical need to increase awareness among stakeholders regarding the value of high-quality HF studies.
