Abstract:
Delayed discharge for non-clinical reasons shares common characteristics with hip procedures. We sought to quantify the length of stay and related costs of hip procedures and compare these with other cases of delayed discharge. A cross-sectional study was conducted at a public hospital in Spain (2007–2015) including 306 patients with 6945 days of total stay and 2178 days of prolonged stay. The mean appropriate stay was 15.58 days, and the mean prolonged stay was 7.12 days. The cost of a prolonged stay was €641,002.09. The opportunity cost according to the value of the hospital complexity unit

Delays in subspecialty consultations and procedures can cause increased length of stay due to reasons outside of necessary medical care.ObjectiveTo quantify, describe and record reasons for delays in consultations and procedures for patients on the general medicine wards.MethodologyWe conducted weekly audits of all admitted patients on five Internal Medicine teams over 8 weeks.

Introduction: This study determines the extent of, and factors associated with, delayed discharges for stroke patients from inpatient rehabilitation. Materials and Methods: A retrospective cohort study utilising medical notes review was conducted at an inpatient rehabilitation centre in Singapore. Acute stroke patients (n = 487) admitted between March 2005 and December 2006 were studied. The primary measure was delayed discharge defi ned as an extension in inpatient stay beyond the planned duration. Factors associated with delays in discharge were categorised as individual, caregiver, medical

Abstract:
Current studies on bed-blocking or delayed discharge for non-medical reasons report important variations depending on the country or setting under study. Research on this subject is clearly important as the current system reveals major inefficiencies. Although there is some agreement on the patient-related factors that contribute to the phenomenon, such as older age or a lack of functional ability, there is greater variability regarding environmental or organizational factors. This study sought to quantify the number of cases and days inappropriately spent in hospital and identify patient char

Abstract:
Introduction: Prolonged hospitalisation not only increases cost, it is also associated with other complications. Length of stay (LOS) is one of the indicators that reflect total cost of care during hospitalisation. So, it is of paramount importance to find out why elderly patients overstay in acute care hospitals and address these issues proactively. Since no local data is available, a study was planned to ascertain reasons why the discharging of elderly patients from hospital is delayed and whether these reasons are avoidable. Materials and Methods: Long-stay patients were defined as those wh

Abstract:
SummaryDischarging patients from the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) can be delayed for non-medical reasons including the procurement of home medical equipment, parental education, and the need for children’s services. We previously created a model to identify patients that will be medically ready for discharge in the subsequent 2–10 days. In this study we use Natural Language Processing to improve upon that model and discern why the model performed poorly on certain patients.We retrospectively examined the text of the Assessment and Plan section from daily progress notes of 4,693 patients

Background/Aim. Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is one of the most widely accepted operative methods for femoral neck fracture (FNF) in elderly. However, the data on the early THA for FNF are very limited. The aim of this study to determine if there were differences in postoperative complications and functional outcomes between an urgent and delayed THA following FNF. Methods. This prospective study included a total of 244 patients who had THA following FNF from January 2010 to January 2013. In the first group 41 FNF patients were treated with THA within less than 12 hours of admission. A total o

Abstract:
The management of facial fractures in the polytrauma patient requires the coordination of multiple surgical disciplines to optimize the functional and cosmetic outcome while minimizing overall morbidity and mortality. Although the plastic surgery literature historically advocates the early repair of facial fractures, the risk of general anesthesia in patients with associated injuries sometimes makes early repair unsafe. We compared early operative repair versus delayed operative repair of facial fractures in multitrauma patients. We specifically examined wound infection, overall complication r

Background and Objectives: Medical registries evolved from a basic epidemiological data set to further applications allowing deriving decision making. Revision rates after non-traumatic amputation are high and dramatically impact the following rehabilitation of the amputee. Risk scores for revision surgery after non-traumatic lower limb amputation are still missing. The main objective was to create an amputation registry allowing us to determine risk factors for revision surgery after non-traumatic lower-limb amputation and to develop a score for an early detection and decision-making tool for
