Walden, Judith Gail. "Using Administrative Healthcare Records to Identify Determinants of Amputee Residuum Outcomes." ScholarWorks, 2017. https://scholarworks.waldenu.edu/dissertations/3264.

Abstract:

In the United States, the number of major limb amputees is predicted to exceed several million in the coming decades. For those amputees using a prosthesis, their quality of life (QoL) is often modulated by residuum limb problems resultant from its use. Multiple factors preclude quality evidence-based medicine (EBM) research in the field of prosthetics, leading to greater health risk from prosthetic prescription ambiguity. Positive social change is integral to good QoL; studies support administrative healthcare (AHc) as useful to support such, especially in the absence of EBM. This study utili

<p> Despite the multitude of existing studies of leadership and organizational outcome, there are few empirical studies of these phenomena in Africa.

Abstract:

Outcomes measures, which is the measurement of effectiveness of interventions and services has been propelled onto the health service agenda since the introduction of the internal market in the 1990s.

Abstract:

A relatively high consensus has been produced so far by the economic literature on the relationship between individuals’ health and labour market activity, in particular on the existence of a detrimental effect of health shocks on the labour and socioeconomic status. Still, the potential – short and long-term – mechanisms through which the association arises, remain pretty unexplored. By taking different perspectives, the thesis explores the causal relationship between acute health shocks such as cardiovascular diseases and a wide range of labour market outcomes.

Abstract:

Background and Aims: To explore outcomes following gastrointestinal endoscopy using a clinical dataset and then routinely collected administrative data linked to death registry data. Predictors of outcome were studied and variations in crude mortality were analysed. Methods: Endoscopy cases from a single tertiary centre were identified retrospectively using a clinical endoscopy database. Sedation levels, type of procedure and demographic data were analysed. Adverse events following the procedures, including mortality were assessed before and after changes in sedation practice were introduced.

Britain and Sweden have had similar backgrounds when it comes to organising treatment of Mentally Disordered Offenders who are sentenced to forensic psychiatric care instead of prison. Traditionally care has been centrally controlled and isolated from mainstream healthcare structures.

Compared to wealthy individuals, individuals with low socioeconomic status (SES) often receive health services of lower intensity or quality and have difficulty accessing care. This is particularly true in the area of inpatient surgery. Individuals with low socioeconomic status are often less likely than individuals associated with high socioeconomic status to receive timely surgical care, and less likely than high SES to receive evidence-based treatments for surgical care. Despite these large gaps, there is a lack of consensus whether disparities in surgical outcomes are primarily due to diff

Since research is still scant on both crowdfunding as whole and on its fast-developing sub-categories this study endeavored to analyze two related topics in this area.

Delay discounting is the process by which delayed outcomes lose value. Different types of delayed outcomes (e.g., food and money) lose value to different degrees. Higher degrees of delay discounting are related to a wide variety of psychosocial maladies. Chapter I provides context for the studies described in Chapters II-IV. Specifically, cigarette smokers routinely discount delayed money to a greater degree than nonsmokers.

Abstract:

This research developed and tested a conceptual model to explain why higher volumes of certain surgical procedures lead to better patient outcomes. The model incorporated hospital structural characteristics and process of care indicators to explain the volume-outcome relationship. The volume-outcome relationship was further examined longitudinally to determine stability over time and to substantiate the causality implied by the conceptual model. A sample (n=1752) of acute-care, general hospitals was selected from hospitals that performed, in 1990, at least one surgical procedure on Medicare pa

Aim The purpose of the study was to formally identify trauma care delivery problems at the study institution, implement a solution in the form of trauma case management (TCM), and measure the effect of TCM on staff satisfaction, clinical coding accuracy and patient outcomes, using practice-specific outcome variables such as in-hospital complication rates, length of stay, resource use and allied health service intervention rates.

Abstract:

This research sought to ascertain the extent to which providing public sponsored health insurance (PSHI) to previously uninsured Mexican-American Hispanics improves health outcomes among those requiring ongoing treatment to control diabetes. Prior research utilizing insurance access theory; access, equity, and health outcome interrelationship theory; health affordability theory; and financial and resource burden theory suggests the uninsured receive less care than the insured, with delayed treatment, leading to chronic conditions. This research tested each of those major theoretical constructs

More specifically, the study focuses on transactional-transformational leadership styles and the extent to which chairs' self and faculty members' perceptions of ch
