Genomics

35.5K
Genomics is the science of genomes: it is the study of all the genetic material of an organism. In humans, the genome consists of information carried in 23 pairs of chromosomes in the nucleus, as well as mitochondrial DNA. In genomics, both coding and non-coding DNA is sequenced and analyzed. Genomics allows a better understanding of all living things, their evolution, and their diversity. It has a myriad of uses: for example, to build phylogenetic trees, to improve productivity and...

Combination Therapies and Personalized Medicine

4.9K
Combining two or more treatment methods increases the life span of cancer patients while reducing damage to vital organs or tissue from the overuse of a single treatment. Combination therapy also targets different cancer-inducing pathways, thus reducing the chances of developing resistance to treatment.
The combination of the drug acetazolamide and sulforaphane is a good example of combination therapy to treat cancer. The cells in the interior of a large tumor often die due to the hypoxic and...

Methods Of Healthcare Delivery System

3.9K
At the different levels of the healthcare system, we see varying methods of healthcare used. These methods include managed care systems, case management, and primary healthcare.
Managed Care System:
The managed care system is designed to control the cost while maintaining the quality of care. The patient's care from admission to discharge is planned by the primary care provider or the case manager, also known as the gatekeeper. In a managed care system, the number of care providers is...

Primary Healthcare Services01:30

Primary Healthcare Services

3.1K
Primary care promotes wellness and prevents disease. This care includes health promotion, education, protection (such as immunizations), early disease screening, and environmental considerations. Settings providing this type of healthcare include physician offices, public health clinics, school nursing, and community health nursing.
In 1978, international leaders convened in Alma-Ata, Kazakhstan, for what would be a pivotal event in global health. The Alma-Ata Declaration was the first to call...

Issues And Trends In Healthcare Delivery System

6.5K
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...

Methods of Documentation VI: Case Management Model

924
The case management model is a multidisciplinary approach that involves healthcare professionals from diverse disciplines, such as physicians, nurses, therapists, social workers, and pharmacists, working collaboratively to address the various needs of patients. Each healthcare professional brings unique expertise and perspectives, contributing to a more comprehensive understanding of the patient's condition and tailoring treatment plans accordingly.
For example, a patient with a chronic...

Area of Science:

  • Genomic Medicine
  • Primary Care Implementation
  • Health Services Research

Background:

  • Genomic medicine holds promise for preventive and diagnostic care.
  • Integrating genomic medicine into primary care presents implementation challenges.

Purpose of the Study:

  • Identify barriers to genomic medicine implementation in primary care settings.
  • Explore strategies to overcome identified barriers.

Main Methods:

  • Convergent mixed-methods case study across three family practice clinics.
  • Quantitative surveys assessed attitudes, implementation climate, and feasibility.
  • Qualitative interviews explored perceptions and barriers to genomic medicine integration.

Main Results:

  • Personnel showed positive attitudes but raised concerns about time, technology, and knowledge.
  • Primary care climate was supportive of change but not specifically for genomic medicine.
  • External facilitators and educational resources were deemed critical for success.

Conclusions:

  • Effective genomic medicine integration requires addressing resource limitations and training needs.
  • Enhanced infrastructure and focused educational initiatives are crucial for successful implementation.
  • Primary care personnel recognize the value of genomic medicine but need support for integration.
