Hospitals-I

915
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...

Hospitals-II

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.

Transmission-based Precautions II: Airborne and Protective Environment

1.5K
Transmission-based precautions are for patients infected or suspected to be infected (or colonized) with organisms posing a significant risk to others. The transmission precautions include airborne and protective environment precautions.
Airborne precautions:
Use airborne precautions when treating patients known or suspected to have diseases that spread through the air—for example, tuberculosis or measles. These organisms are present in smaller droplets expelled by an infected person and...

Tertiary Healthcare System01:21

Tertiary Healthcare System

1.9K
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...

Restorative Care01:19

Restorative Care

2.1K
Restorative care is provided once a patient has been discharged from a healthcare facility and requires additional services. The additional services include home care, rehabilitation programs, and extended care. Restorative care centers help the patient regain their previous level of functioning or acquire a new level of functioning due to the incapacitating effects of a disease or a disability. It aims to assist patients in enhancing their quality of life by encouraging independence,...

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

COVID-19 lockdowns deterred hospital visits for non-COVID illnesses. Patients, especially those over 70, delayed seeking care due to fear of contracting the virus during their hospital admission.

Area of Science:

  • Cardiology
  • Public Health
  • Epidemiology

Background:

  • Global COVID-19 pandemic and associated lockdowns significantly altered healthcare-seeking behaviors.
  • Patient apprehension regarding hospital exposure to SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) is a hypothesized reason for reduced non-COVID hospital presentations.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate patient concerns about pandemic-related risks influencing hospital admission decisions.
  • To explore the impact of lockdown measures on patients' willingness to present to hospitals for non-COVID conditions.

Main Methods:

  • A cross-sectional study utilizing an inpatient questionnaire administered to cardiology and coronary care unit patients during Level 4 lockdown.
  • The questionnaire comprised six questions assessing patient perceptions of lockdown's influence on hospital presentation.

Main Results:

  • Out of 91 participants, 20 (22%) reported delayed or affected decisions to present to the hospital due to lockdown.
  • A statistically significant difference was observed in delayed presentation between younger (<70 years) and older (>70 years) patients (32% vs. 10%, p=0.011).

Conclusions:

  • Patient apprehension regarding COVID-19 risks was a significant factor in delaying hospital presentations.
  • These concerns may contribute to the observed decrease in hospital admission rates during the pandemic.
