Abstract:
47 Background: A significant number of advanced cancer admissions to intensive care unit (ICU) are inappropriate, as they do not prolonged survival. No clear consensus criteria for reasonable admissions of advanced cancer patients have been developed. Methods: We established four criteria for ICU admissions in advanced cancer patients: post procedure complication, recent cancer diagnosis, good performance status and life expectancy of > 6 months. We reviewed charts of all patients who died in the ICU at a university-affiliated hospital between 2005-2010. We then identified advanced cancer patients and looked for presence or absence of these criteria. We also reviewed evidence of advance planning discussions (APDs), prior to ICU admission to evaluate their benefit in preventing inappropriate admissions. Results: 421 deaths occurred in ICU between 2005-2010. 52 patients had advanced cancer. 27% were diagnosed with cancer one month or less prior to admission. 40% had ECOG performance status of 0-1. 27% had life expectancy of more than 6 months and 15% were admitted for post procedure complications. Overall, 37% did not satisfy any of our reasonable criteria at the time of ICU admission. In our chart review for evidence of APDs, 31% had completed APDs prior to ICU admission. 47% of patients who did not satisfy any of our reasonable admission criteria had APDs indicating desire for limited medical intervention. Patients lacking both reasonable admission criteria and APDs were 15%. Conclusions: Incorporating proposed admission criteria in ICU admission guidelines may prevent significant number of inappropriate, advanced cancer admissions to the ICU, thus avoiding ineffective, aggressive interventions and delay in timely access to high-quality hospice and palliative care. Our data confirms other data in suggesting that a simple increase in numbers of APDs would not likely change significantly the numbers of inappropriate ICU admissions. [Table: see text]

Abstract:
Hospital beds are one of the most critical medical resources. Large hospitals in China have caused bed utilization rates to exceed 100% due to long-term extra beds. To alleviate the contradiction between the supply of high-quality medical resources and the demand for hospitalization, in this paper, we address the decision of choosing a case mix for a respiratory medicine department. We aim to generate an optimal admission plan of elective patients with the stochastic length of stay and different resource consumption. We assume that we can classify elective patients according to their registration information before admission. We formulated a general integer programming model considering heterogeneous patients and introducing patient priority constraints. The mathematical model is used to generate a scientific and reasonable admission planning, determining the best admission mix for multitype patients in a period. Compared with model II that does not consider priority constraints, model I proposed in this paper is better in terms of admissions and revenue. The proposed model I can adjust the priority parameters to meet the optimal output under different goals and scenarios. The daily admission planning for each type of patient obtained by model I can be used to assist the patient admission management in large general hospitals.

Abstract:
Background: Season and weather are associated with many health outcomes, which can influence hospital admission rates. We examined associations between hospital admissions (all diagnoses) and local meteorological parameters in Southwestern Uganda, with the aim of supporting hospital planning and preparedness in the context of climate change. Methods: Hospital admissions data and meteorological data were collected from Bwindi Community Hospital and a satellite database of weather conditions, respectively (2011 to 2014). Descriptive statistics were used to describe admission patterns. A mixed-effects Poisson regression model was fitted to investigate associations between hospital admissions and season, precipitation, and temperature. Results: Admission counts were highest for acute respiratory infections, malaria, and acute gastrointestinal illness, which are climate-sensitive diseases. Hospital admissions were 1.16 (95% CI: 1.04, 1.31; p = 0.008) times higher during extreme high temperatures (i.e., >95th percentile) on the day of admission. Hospital admissions association with season depended on year; admissions were higher in the dry season than the rainy season every year, except for 2014. Discussion: Effective adaptation strategy characteristics include being low-cost and quick and practical to implement at local scales. Herein, we illustrate how analyzing hospital data alongside meteorological parameters may inform climate-health planning in low-resource contexts.

Abstract:
Increasingly, third party payers are challenging the necessity of a hospital admission for endoscopic procedures. Direct laryngoscopy (DL), with or without open, rigid esophagoscopy or flexible, fiberoptic bronchoscopy, was evaluated for the incidence of perioperative complications and associated risk factors. A retrospective review of 200 in-patient admissions between 1987 and 1990 for direct laryngoscopy or panendoscopy is presented. Complications were classified as major for untoward events that required hospitailzation for proper management. Complications were otherwise considered minor. The incidence of major complications was at least 19.5%, with minor complications occurring in 21% of patients. The total population was partitioned into subsets according to the occurrence of major complications, minor complications, and no complications. For the total population and each subset, distributions were developed by age, sex, habitus, physical status level, diagnosis of molignancy, presence of a malignant lesion in the aerodigestive tract, or medical history of head and neck surgery or radiation therapy. Statistical analysis indicates that these parameters do not offer reliable predictors of which patients are at risk for minor or major complications. It is concluded that all patients who undergo direct laryngoscopy are most safety managed in an in-hospital setting for a period on the order of 24 hours.

Poor management of the patient flow in intensive care units (ICUs) causes service rejections and presents significant challenges from the standpoint of capacity planning and management in ICUs. This thesis reports on the development of a simulation framework to study admission control polices that aim to decrease the rejection rate in the ICU at Children's Hospital Boston (CHB), and to provide predictions for the future state of the ICU system. To understand the patient flow process, we extensively analyze the arrival and length of stay (LOS) data from the ICU census. The simulation model for the ICU is developed based on the results from this statistical analysis as well as the currently-practiced scheduling and admission policies of the ICU at CHB. The model is validated to provide accurate estimates for important performance metrics such as rejection rates in the ICU. The simulation model is used to study the performance of many admission control policies. The policies of our interest exploit "caps" to control the number of scheduled patients who are allowed to enter the ICU on a single day. In particular, we consider two cap-based policies: the uniform cap policy (UCP), which is the existing policy in CHB, and the service-specific cap policy (SSCP), which is originally proposed in this thesis. While the UCP implements caps on the total census of surgical patients, the SSCP utilizes the service-oriented heterogeneity of surgical patients' LOS and enforces caps on separate groups of surgical patients based on their average LOS. We show that the UCP can reduce the rejection rate in the ICU at the expense of extra waiting time of scheduled patients. The SSCP is shown to further decrease the rejection rate while increasing the waiting time compared to the UCP. We also demonstrate that the performance of both policies depends on the level of system utilization. In order to validate our results theoretically, a discrete-time queueing model for the ICU is developed and verified to provide estimates for performance measures that are consistent with the results from simulation. Finally, we introduce the notion of state-dependent prediction, which aims to identify the likelihood of the future state of the ICU conditional on the information of a current state. Several experiments are conducted by simulation to study the impact of a current state on a state in the future. According to our results, current state information can be useful in predicting the state of the ICU in the near future, but its impact gradually diminishes as the time difference between the present and future grows. Our major finding is that the probability of unit saturation at a certain future time can be determined almost entirely by the number of current patients who will leave the ICU after that time, regardless of the total number of patients who are currently staying in the unit. These results imply the potential development of adaptive cap-based policies that dynamically adjust caps according to the outcomes of state-dependent predictions.

Ighile, Faith Omomen. "Reducing 30-Day Readmissions for Patients With Stroke." ScholarWorks, 2019. https://scholarworks.waldenu.edu/dissertations/7016.

Abstract:
In a stroke-certified 500-bed acute care hospital, the 30-day readmission rates for patients discharged to rehabilitation centers or skilled nursing facilities were higher than the rates for patients discharged to home. A review of data by the stroke team showed 44 patients readmitted within 30 days of initial stroke discharge between October 2016 and January 2017. The rate of re-admission for those discharged home was 41% (18 patients), whereas the rate for those discharged to acute inpatient rehabilitation, long-term acute care, or skilled nursing facilities was 59% (26 patients). The practice-focused question for this project assessed whether using a re-admission risk-assessment tool and implementing interventions during the initial acute-care admission, would help to identify and improve risk for 30-day re-admissions for patients diagnosed with stroke. The goal of this research project was to adopt, test, and recommend the implementation of a readmission risk assessment tool to enable discharge planners to identify stroke patients at risk for readmission and implement interventions to help reduce this risk. Lewin’s theory of change was used to inform the project. A stroke re-admission risk-assessment tool in use at a similar hospital was adopted and tested for 1 week on the hospital’s 28-bed stroke unit by nurse case managers. The test was conducted among 5 patients with confirmed diagnosis of stroke. A re-admission data review was performed 30 days after their discharge, which showed no readmissions for the 5 patients involved in the trial. The tool helped to improve case manager awareness of increased risk for readmissions, guide interventions, and improve patient transition and outcomes. The implications of this project for positive change include the potential to improve risk for patients with stroke in the acute-care facility.

Typical public secondary school students seem unable to compete with distinguished public and elite private secondary school students when seeking admission to highly selective colleges. This study has identified the characteristics that distinguish college guidance and school-wide programs at public secondary schools perceived to be the strongest (distinguished) from other public secondary schools. School boards, public secondary school counselors, school administrators, and the communities they serve now have college guidance programs they can emulate to better prepare students for admission to highly selective colleges.

Abstract:
The Swedish health care system plays a vital role in satisfying the citizens’ demands for quality health care services. To deliver the right services in time in a hospital, an efficient admission plan is required, but this can be difficult to achieve. The Department of Pulmonary Medicine at the University Hospital in Linköping needs a better admission plan for their patients. In the department, the patient demand does not match the capacity, which leads to overcrowding at the ward. The aim of this thesis is to improve the admission plan of patients for the ward at the Department of Pulmonary Medicine by using discrete event simulation. To fulfil the aim, a simulation study is performed to understand how the system is working, where the problems emerged and how to prevent overcrowding. Different experiments are performed to check what could improve the admission plan at the ward. The results from this study shows that an improvement of the admission plan could be reached by better cooperation between involved units, improved documentation at the Department, a queue system of patients based on medical priorities and changed number of care beds. These solutions can prevent overcrowding and deliver health care services in time.

Abstract:
Thesis (MTech (Business Information Technology))--Cape Peninsula University of Technology, 2018.
Institutions of higher learning are operating in an environment that is continuously informed by the markets and government regulations, hence the need for continuous improvement initiatives in order to remain relevant to the dynamic changes in higher education. The improvements are done by reviewing the course content, operations, and business processes, which includes an application and admission process. This study analyses the residence application and admission process (RAAP). The business processes and Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system support the realisation of the application and admission process of the university. The review of the current application and admission process will be based on business processes, business process reengineering, and the business process modelling theory. Therefore, the problem statement for the study is that the impact of information flow during the application and admission of students for residency at the university involves business processes that are inefficient and ineffective. This results in mistakes being made by administrators, and students who are dissatisfied. The study is based on two research questions: Firstly, what strategies can be used to improve the application and admission process of the role players at the selected tertiary institution, and secondly, how does the application and admission process affect service delivery to the students and residence administrators at the selected tertiary institution? The aim of the study is to explore how the participating students and administrators in the residence application and admission process perceive the efficiency of university business processes. A further aim is to explore how the processes can be reengineered to fulfil the requirements of the students and administrators. The research methodology employed to resolve the problem logically is qualitative in nature. A research paradigm guides the actions of the researcher with regard to the generation and interpretation data, which results in knowledge production. The inductive research approach is well suited for the research strategy. For the purpose of this study, a case study strategy is deemed suitable because of its qualitative nature, and comprehensive knowledge of the university processes is required to understand and address the research problem. The unit of analysis of the study is the university’s administrative department business processes. The purposive, non-randomly selected students who applied for residency and the employees of the applicable departments within the university form the unit of observation, which is also a source of data. The data are collected by means of interviews using semi-structured questionnaires, with the samples being non-random and purposively selected. The data collected in the case study are then be summarised and categorised into themes. The themes are uses to present the “As-Is” and the “To-Be” application and admission process.

Abstract:
The overall aim of the present thesis was to study factors related to transfers of older people between nursing homes, emergency department and hospital care. The thesis was based on four studies and used three methods: focus group discussions, structured review of electronic healthcare records, semi-structured interviews with registered nurses and general practitioners. Study I: nursing home nurses found it difficult to decide whether older residents should be referred to hospital from the nursing home. Hospital registered nurses reported often trying to stop premature discharges or having to carry out the discharge although it had not been fully prepared. Study II: transfer rate to ED was 594 over 9 months among a total of 431 residents (M 1.37 each). 25% were caused by falls and/or injuries, 63% resulted in hospitalization (M 7.12 days). The transfer rate was 0.00-1.03 transfers/bed; it was higher for private for-profit providers than for public/private non-profit providers. Study III: nursing homes with high transfer rates had fewer updated advance care plans than did nursing homes with lower transfer rates. More nurses from nursing homes with low transfer rates had a specialist education and training in dementia care and had worked longer in eldercare. Study IV: general practitioners perceived registered nurses’ continuity, competence and collaboration with family members as important to quality of care in nursing homes; inadequate staffing, lack of medical equipment and less-than-optimal IT systems for electronic healthcare records are impediments to patient safety. The findings indicate that organizational factors could explain differences in transfer rates between nursing homes. The studies highlight the importance of advance care planning together with residents and family members in facilitating future medical decisions. Registered nurses’ continuity and competence are perceived as crucial to quality of care. To meet increasing demands for more complex medical treatment at nursing homes and to provide high-quality palliative care several changes should be made: Nursing homes should be equipped with suitable medical equipment and registered nurse staff should be matched accordingly; importantly, registered nurses and general practitioners should be able to access each other’s healthcare record systems.

Abstract:
This study examined the effect of interdisciplinary discharge planning rounds on timing of social work intervention, length of stay (LOS), and readmission for patients aged 65 and over. Data sources were the medical charts of 449 patients discharged during two corresponding 28 day periods (one before end one after the implementation of rounds) supplemented by Discharge Planning Committee minutes (DPCM) and interviews with four key informants. No significant differences in the timing of social work intervention, LOS, or readmissions were found between the two samples. Qualitative research revealed that essential components were either missing (physician participation), or not uniformly included (family participation) in rounds, and that staff felt that rounds improved communication among the disciplines and contributed to improved efficiency in planning hospital and posthospital services. These findings highlight the need to further study all aspects of the complex discharge planning process to identify factors that would reduce LOS and readmissions.

Abstract:
Mental health is a growing concern for adolescents. Billions of dollars are spent annually on mental services for youth. Many adolescents experience abuse, suicidal ideations, psychotic disorders, substance abuse, and other challenges. Recurring inpatient psychiatric hospitalizations are increasing among adolescents. The recurring admissions impact adolescents significantly socially, psychologically, and financially. Social workers are a vital part of this treatment process from admission to discharge. The research question asked what were the issues and challenges social workers encounter when conducting discharge planning with adolescents receiving recurring inpatient psychiatric treatment. The purpose for this doctoral project was to carefully examine the discharge planning process while identifying ways social workers can positively impact the process. Key concepts for this project were adolescent, inpatient hospitalization, recurring hospitalization, and discharge planning. Systems theory was used to inform the project. This action research study allowed social workers to share their experiences and perspectives about the role of social workers in discharge planning. Seven participants were identified using purposive sampling. One focus group provided data for project. Data analysis consisted of in vivo and process coding. Four participant-inspired themes identified related to issues and challenges in discharge planning include (a) adequate resources, (b) insurance restrictions, (c) rapport with adolescents, and (d) parental participation. Social work practice and positive social change implications include establishing follow-up protocol for all adolescent discharges from inpatient settings and increasing the use of encouragement and engagement strategies for rapport building with adolescents.

Abstract:
Valvular disorders can be corrected by means of surgery, after which very comprehensive discharge planning should be implemented to prevent the occurrence of post-operative complications. Advances in medical technology and intellect instigate earlier discharge for patients after they have undergone valvular surgery. The aim of this research study is to establish the extent of discharge planning by nurses for patients who have undergone valvular surgery, so that practice guidelines in the form of an in-service educational framework can be compiled for nurses in the management of these patients post-operatively. Patients, many of whom are from rural areas, are discharged without an adequate referral system. There are, currently, no set guidelines or referral persons to direct these patients during their rehabilitation period. Based on the researcher’s personal observations, it is evident that many patients suffer from bacterial endocarditis or clotted valves due to poor post-surgery management. However, both of these conditions could be avoided if proper health education was given to these patients. The study will take the form of a quantitative, exploratory, descriptive and contextual survey. Data will be collected by means of a structured questionnaire that will be completed by the nurses working in the cardiac general ward and the cardiac clinic. Findings of the research study will be used to assist the researcher in developing an in-service educational framework for staff that are both nursing and preparing post valvular surgery patients for discharge. The goal is to prevent complications such as clot formation and endocarditis and to enable patients to deal effectively with their rehabilitation period.

This is because ERP system supports a “do-it-all” approach to organizational management in addition to education managers' quest to improve quality of service to their students and the need to meet regional as well as global standards. In most institutions, operational areas such as student admission, finance, procurement, examination management, staffing, and alumni management can now be done through the ERP system. This chapter examines the issues associated with implementation of ERP system in higher education institutions. After studying this chapter, you should be able to: appreciate the various strategies for ERP system implementation, identify the factors leading to successful implementation of ERP system in higher education institutions, distinguish between the different models for successful ERP system implementation, and understand the metrics for measuring success rate of ERP system implementation.

Abstract:
A Semantic Web service composition system can be considered as a multi-agent system, in which each of the component service is considered as an agent capability. This chapter presents a multi-agent system based Semantic Web service composition approach. The proposed approach deals with some of the untouched issues and uses cognitive parameters and quality of service (QoS) parameters in service-provider selection. Education planning, a new application area for Semantic Web technology that involves planning the admission process for higher education courses has been introduced and the proposed approach and models are applied to it.

Abstract:
Children present to the health services with a variety of health needs. The Department of Health (DH) National Service Framework (2004) in the United Kingdom (UK) identifies that children with health needs should receive good quality care. Furthermore this care needs to be provided by staff that have adequate preparation to work with children and families (DH, 2004). In order to provide such care, the nursing student needs to develop and acquire the necessary knowledge and skills to gain an understanding and appreciation of the common needs of both family and child on hospitalization. This chapter aims to equip you with the knowledge and background skills to enable you to provide this quality care. After reading this chapter you should be able to: ● Identify and outline the essential skills that are required during the child’s admission to hospital. ● Understand the essential clinical observations that are performed upon the child’s admission to hospital. ● Develop a further understanding of the basic elements of admission and discharge planning, including the nursing process and care planning. ● Understand the importance of good record keeping during care. ● Identify the means of transmission of infection and the specific precautions and practices that the nursing student can utilize to prevent such transmission. ● Understand the principles of distraction therapy. ● Understand the situations in which restraint may be required. ● Comprehend the principles of last offices and the nurse’s role in providing bereavement care. This chapter assists with your understanding of your nursing care by helping you to understand the skills that can be used during the child’s admission to hospital. These skills develop with experience and education and enable you to develop a caring, family centred approach that makes the transition from home to hospital and vice versa a smooth one for both family and child. Crucially, the assessment process, in the initial phase, helps to set the scene in your relationship with both child and family and communication skills are vital. At the same time essential physical observations of the child are carried out and documented to support your overall assessment and these will be outlined in this chapter.

Abstract:
Staff working on mental health wards are well accustomed to assessing and managing vulnerable patients. With the current organization of mental health care in the UK, where only 5.7% of patients in contact with mental health services received inpatient care in a year, only the most unwell and/or complex patients are seen on mental health wards. These patients may well have numerous vulnerabilities, which require assessment and management as part of the holistic treatment of the patient during their admission and for discharge planning. This chapter discusses who these particularly vulnerable patients are, examines what sort of vulnerabilities patients might experience, and suggests possible management strategies.

Abstract:
A mobile e-Health information system (MEHIS) aims to speed up the operations of health care in medical centers and hospitals. However, the proper implementation of MEHIS involves integrating many subsystems for MEHIS to be properly executed. A typical MEHIS can consist of many components and subsystems, such as appointments and scheduling; admission, discharge, and transfer (ADT); prescription order entry; dietary planning; and smart card sign-on. This paper describes the development of a MEHIS with open-source Eclipse, using currently available health care standards. The author discusses the issues of building a mobile e-Health information system which can help achieve the goal of ubiquitous and mobile applications for the personalization of e-Health.

Abstract:
Background. Untreated maternal mental health disorders can have devastating sequelae for the mother and child. For women who are currently or planning to become pregnant or are breastfeeding, a critical question is whether the benefits of treating psychiatric illness with pharmacologic interventions outweigh the harms for mother and child. Methods. We conducted a systematic review to assess the benefits and harms of pharmacologic interventions compared with placebo, no treatment, or other pharmacologic interventions for pregnant and postpartum women with mental health disorders. We searched four databases and other sources for evidence available from inception through June 5, 2020 and surveilled the literature through March 2, 2021; dually screened the results; and analyzed eligible studies. We included studies of pregnant, postpartum, or reproductive-age women with a new or preexisting diagnosis of a mental health disorder treated with pharmacotherapy; we excluded psychotherapy. Eligible comparators included women with the disorder but no pharmacotherapy or women who discontinued the pharmacotherapy before pregnancy. Results. A total of 164 studies (168 articles) met eligibility criteria. Brexanolone for depression onset in the third trimester or in the postpartum period probably improves depressive symptoms at 30 days (least square mean difference in the Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression, -2.6; p=0.02; N=209) when compared with placebo. Sertraline for postpartum depression may improve response (calculated relative risk [RR], 2.24; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.95 to 5.24; N=36), remission (calculated RR, 2.51; 95% CI, 0.94 to 6.70; N=36), and depressive symptoms (p-values ranging from 0.01 to 0.05) when compared with placebo. Discontinuing use of mood stabilizers during pregnancy may increase recurrence (adjusted hazard ratio [AHR], 2.2; 95% CI, 1.2 to 4.2; N=89) and reduce time to recurrence of mood disorders (2 vs. 28 weeks, AHR, 12.1; 95% CI, 1.6 to 91; N=26) for bipolar disorder when compared with continued use. Brexanolone for depression onset in the third trimester or in the postpartum period may increase the risk of sedation or somnolence, leading to dose interruption or reduction when compared with placebo (5% vs. 0%). More than 95 percent of studies reporting on harms were observational in design and unable to fully account for confounding. These studies suggested some associations between benzodiazepine exposure before conception and ectopic pregnancy; between specific antidepressants during pregnancy and adverse maternal outcomes such as postpartum hemorrhage, preeclampsia, and spontaneous abortion, and child outcomes such as respiratory issues, low Apgar scores, persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn, depression in children, and autism spectrum disorder; between quetiapine or olanzapine and gestational diabetes; and between benzodiazepine and neonatal intensive care admissions. Causality cannot be inferred from these studies. We found insufficient evidence on benefits and harms from comparative effectiveness studies, with one exception: one study suggested a higher risk of overall congenital anomalies (adjusted RR [ARR], 1.85; 95% CI, 1.23 to 2.78; N=2,608) and cardiac anomalies (ARR, 2.25; 95% CI, 1.17 to 4.34; N=2,608) for lithium compared with lamotrigine during first- trimester exposure. Conclusions. Few studies have been conducted in pregnant and postpartum women on the benefits of pharmacotherapy; many studies report on harms but are of low quality. The limited evidence available is consistent with some benefit, and some studies suggested increased adverse events. However, because these studies could not rule out underlying disease severity as the cause of the association, the causal link between the exposure and adverse events is unclear. Patients and clinicians need to make an informed, collaborative decision on treatment choices.
