Abstract:
Objectives To compare medication use and health resource utilization between migraineurs with evidence of opioid use at emergency department visit versus no opioid use at emergency department visit, and to examine predictors of opioid use among migraineurs at emergency department visits. Methods This was a retrospective study using REACHnet electronic health records (December 2013 to April 2017) from Baylor Scott & White Health Plan. The index date was defined as the first migraine-related emergency department visit after ≥6 months of enrollment. Adult patients with a migraine diagnosis and ≥6 months of continuous enrollment before and after their index dates were included. Descriptive statistics and bivariate analyses were used to compare medication use and health resource utilization between opioid users and non-opioid users. Multivariable logistic regression was used to examine predictors of opioid use at emergency department visits. Results A total of 788 migraineurs met eligibility criteria. Over one-third (n = 283, 35.9%) received ≥1 opioid medication during their index date emergency department visit. Morphine (n = 103, 13.1%) and hydromorphone (n = 85, 10.8%) were the most frequently used opioids. Opioid users had more hospitalizations and emergency department visits during their pre-index period (both p < 0.05). Significant ( p < 0.05) predictors of opioid use at emergency department visits included past migraine-related opioid use (2–4 prescriptions, Odds Ratio = 1.66; 5–9 prescriptions, Odds Ratio = 2.12; ≥10 prescriptions, Odds Ratio = 4.43), past non-migraine-related opioid use (≥10 prescriptions, Odds Ratio = 1.93), past emergency department visits (1–3 visits, Odds Ratio = 1.84), age (45–64 years, Odds Ratio = 1.45), and sleep disorder (Odds Ratio = 1.43), controlling for covariates. Conclusion Opioids were commonly given to migraineurs at emergency departments. Previous opioid use, health resource utilization, age, and specific comorbidities might be used to identify migraineurs with a high risk of opioid use.

Abstract:
We examined mental health–related visits to emergency departments (EDs) among children from 2001 to 2011. We used the National Hospital Ambulatory Medical Care Survey—Emergency Department, 2001-2011 to identify visits of children 6 to 20 years old with a reason-for-visit code or ICD-9-CM diagnosis code reflecting mental health issues. National percentages of total visits, visit counts, and population rates were calculated, overall and by race, age, and sex. Emergency department visits for mental health issues increased from 4.4% of all visits in 2001 to 7.2% in 2011. Counts increased 55 000 visits per year and rates increased from 13.6 visits/1000 population in 2001 to 25.3 visits/1000 in 2011 ( P < .01 for all trends). Black children (all ages) had higher visit rates than white children and 13- to 20-year-olds had higher visit rates than children 6 to 12 years old ( P < .01 for all comparisons). Differences between groups did not decline over time.

Abstract:
Affordable Care Act (ACA) was passed and implemented to expand insurance coverage, reduce health care cost, and improve the quality of care. The purpose of this dissertation study was to investigate whether the ACA insurance expansion correlates with the number of visits made to emergency departments (EDs). The quasi-experimental design interrupted time series was utilized in the analysis. The ED visits were compared using MANOVA to determine the relationship between ED visits and ACA and canonical correlation analysis to assess the strength of the relationship and the extent to which independent variables could predict the dependent variable. The hypothesis was that the ACA will reduce the uninsured, increase the insured, and reduce the ED visits. The relationship between number of ED visits and the ACA will present whether the uninsured patients contributed significantly to the ED overcrowding. Analysis of secondary data from four EDs (H1, H2, H3, and H4) in the Chicago area showed that 484,742 visits were made, and 2,801 were excluded due to unknown payer type. Medicaid patients recorded the largest number of visits (181,226) while the uninsured patients recorded the least number of visits (56,572). The ED visits decreased by 6% from 2012 to 2013 (pre-ACA) and increased by 4% from 2013 to 2105 (post-ACA). The ACA implementation increased the people with insurance who visited the EDs by 11%. The results demonstrated a strong relationship between ACA and ED visits. The correlation of the variables (hospital and year) and ED visits demonstrated that the hospital could explain 97% of the Medicaid visits and 87% of uninsured while the year could predict 82.6% of the uninsured visits and 52.5% of Medicaid visits.

Abstract:
Background: Many patients evaluated for acute coronary syndrome (ACS) in emergency departments (EDs) experience ongoing or recurrent symptoms after discharge, regardless of their ultimate medical diagnosis. A comprehensive understanding of post-ED symptom trajectories is lacking. Aims: Aim 1 was to determine trajectories of severity of common symptoms (chest pressure, chest discomfort, unusual fatigue, chest pain, shortness of breath, lightheadedness, upper back pain and shoulder pain) in the six months following an ED visit for potential ACS. Aim 2 was to identify relationships between symptom trajectories and baseline physiologic factors (age, gender, diabetes status, diagnosis, comorbidities, functional status) and situational factors (marital status, insurance status, education level). Aim 3 was to identify relationships between symptom trajectories and health service use (outpatient visits and calls, ED visits, 911 calls, hospitalization) in the six months after the ED visit. Methods: This was a secondary data analysis from a study conducted in five U.S. EDs. Patients (n=1002) who had abnormal electrocardiogram or biomarker testing and were identified by the triage nurse as potentially having ACS were enrolled. Symptom severity was assessed in the hospital and 30 days and six months post-discharge using the 13-item ACS Symptom Checklist. Symptom severity was modeled across the three study time points using growth mixture modeling. Model selection was based on interpretability, theoretical justification, and statistical fit indices. Patient characteristics were used to predict trajectories using logistic regression and differences in health service use were tested using chi-square analysis. Results: Between two and four distinct trajectory classes were identified for each symptom. Identified trajectories were labeled "tapering off," "mild/persistent," "moderate/persistent," "moderate/worsening," "moderate/improving," "late onset," and "severe/improving." Age, sex, diabetes, BMI, functional status, insurance status, and diagnosis significantly predicted symptom trajectories. Clinic visits and phone calls, 911 calls, ED visits, and probability of hospitalization varied significantly among trajectories. Conclusions: Research on the individual nature of symptom trajectories can support patient-centered care. Patients at risk for ongoing symptoms and increased health service use can be targeted for education and follow-up based on clinically observable characteristics. Further research is needed to verify the existence of multiple symptoms trajectories in diverse populations.

Abstract:
Background: The overuse of the emergency department (ED) for non- critical patients has been associated with overcrowding and a rise in healthcare cost. Green Valley Fire Department (GVFD) has created a program, Fire-Based Urgent Medicals Service (FBUMS) with a nurse practitioner (NP). Patients can call 9-1-1 or the ""NP hotline"" and request to be seen by the NP instead of being immediately transported to the hospital via ambulance. Purpose: The purpose of this project is to evaluate the impact of the nurse practitioner led FBUMS, on ED visits and ambulance transports. Methods: A survey was mailed to all persons, age 18 and older, who were seen by the NP with FBUMS between February 2017 and March 2017. The survey asked about the reasons for contacting GVFD, the type of treatment received, and whether they went to ED after treatment. Data analysis: Descriptive statistics including frequencies, percentages, means and standard deviations were used to analyze each of the answered survey questions in Microsoft Excel©. Results: Surveys completed (n=42). The majority, 39 (92.9%) stated they did not receive care at the ED within 72 hours following their appointment with the NP, three (7.1%) stated they did. By dramatically decreasing transport to the hospital and associated ED treatment, it is estimated to have saved approximately $53,425 in ambulance costs and $54,210 in ED treatment for a total savings of $99,632.52. Conclusion: A Fire-Based Urgent Medical Service led by a nurse practitioner decreased emergency room visits and ambulance transports.

Abstract:
Urban Bioethics
M.A.
The emergency department (ED) has often been considered the safety net of the American healthcare system. It earned this distinction because every person in the United States has access to a medical screening exam and stabilization at an ED regardless of their ability to pay. Unfortunately, over the past several decades, decreasing numbers of EDs and inpatient beds, coupled with increasing rates of ED usage, has led to crowding of EDs across the country. Crowding leads to unsafe conditions that may increase morbidity and mortality for patients, or cause patients to leave the ED without being evaluated by a physician. Essentially, crowding causes a barrier for patients to access their right to emergency evaluation. The problem of crowding is most pronounced in large urban communities, and these already frequently underserved patients suffer the most from the crowding burden. The main cause of crowding seems to be the boarding of admitted patients in the ED, however many often cite high rates of non-urgent patients presenting to the ED as a cause of crowding. Some have even suggested diverting non-urgent patients to help solve the problem of crowding. I became interested in this topic due to crowding concerns and initiatives to decrease the number of patients who left without being seen at my own institution. As I reviewed relevant research, I became aware of my own misconceptions and noted a trend of literature suggesting non-urgent patients are not the cause of crowding. Drawing on research from many different sources, paired with evaluation based on principles in bioethics, I have come to several conclusions. I believe the systematic diversion of non-urgent patients is unsafe, and that the unequal burden of ED crowding on urban communities represents an unjust barrier in access to care. We must continue to carefully research the demographics of patients frequently presenting to EDs to avoid perpetuating stereotypes about which types of patients are responsible for crowding. We should also look for ways to ease the crowding burden in urban communities. Additionally, we should take a qualitative assessment of our individual communities to determine if there are any particular reasons in our community that people choose to use the ED rather than other healthcare options. I believe these suggestions can be an important addition to the efforts already in motion to help reduce ED crowding and provide equitable access to emergency medical evaluation.

Abstract:
Thesis (M.S.H.P.)
BACKGROUND: Emergency department (ED) visits for psychiatric issues have grown at a disproportionately higher rate than other visits. This has been attributed to factors including severe cuts in mental health (MH) services and identified as a culprit in ED overcrowding. Little is known, however, about how mental health reason-for-visit (MHRFV) interacts with patient and hospital characteristics to affect wait times to see an ED provider. OBJECTIVE: To determine if wait time (WT) to see a provider at the ED differs for those presenting with MHRFV and how various patient and hospital-level characteristics interact to affect it. METHODS: Data were obtained from the National Hospital Ambulatory Medical Care Survey (NHAMCS) for visits to EDs throughout the United States. We examined data for patients ≥ 18 years of age who visited an ED in years 2009 and 2010. Patient weights were used to generate national estimates. Patients’ primary reasons-for-visit were used to identify the MH group for analysis and comparison to all other RFVs. Predictors of WT were chosen based on the Andersen Behavioral and ED overcrowding models. WTs were log-transformed for initial bivariate and final multivariate regression models to assure a more normal distribution. RESULTS: Mean WT was 56.5 and 55.8 minutes for MHRFV and all others respectively with a shared median of 31 minutes. As expected with our large sample (n = 47,831), all variables of interest were significantly associated with WT. Adjusting for patient and hospital level characteristics, a multivariate regression revealed that MHRFV prolonged WT by about 50%. After adjustment for independent variables, interactions with MHRFV were tested as the main outcomes of interest. Blacks with MHRFV had WTs 62% longer, patients age 41-64 31% longer, payer status of Medicare/Medicaid or no coverage had WTs about 24% and 14% longer than private insurance. Conversely, patients at government owned hospitals had WTs 145%, and non-profits 42%, lower than private hospitals. CONCLUSIONS: This is the first time that ED WT has been examined in this depth with a sample of patients presenting with MH issues. The results indicate that disparities are more pronounced in this subgroup of ED patients.

Abstract:
Primary-care-related emergency department (PCR-ED) visits by Hispanic patients enrolled in a not-for-profit Medi-Cal and Medicare health plan resulted in longer wait times in the emergency department (ED) at a regional medical center in Southern California. This congestion decreased access for those with true emergencies, created capacity issues, increased ED length of stay, and resulted in potential safety risks. This project focused on decreasing PCR-ED visits in the Hispanic population using patient navigators in Southern California. Applying the health belief model and Lippitt's theory of change, this doctoral project involved the creation and implementation of a culturally appropriate, population-specific patient navigator model for the Hispanic population. Evaluation of outcomes was accomplished using electronic health record (EHR) results, which demonstrated a reduction of PCR-ED visits and revisits. The project exceeded the goal of 10% reduction in PCR-ED visits and revisits in the target population and resulted in a 14.31% reduction of PCR-ED visits and revisits within 1 month of implementation. Emergency Severity Index levels, wait time associated with each Emergency Severity Index level, and visits of the targeted Hispanic population enrolled in the health plan were analyzed to evaluate the success of the program. This project may lead to improvements in nursing practice and positive social change by supporting population health management and continuum of care to a primary care physician through safe and efficient patient navigation to treatment and care.

Full text
Abstract:
Background. Continuity of care as a principle of health care planning is losing ground in favor of new principles such as accessibility and plurality of provision, but the long-term effects of these changes on the utilization of expensive health services such as hospitalizations and emergency department utilization are still unknown.
Objective. To investigate among individuals aged 66 years or older who have had an index visit to an emergency department (ED) whether there is an association between the continuity with a primary care provider and the likelihood of having an ED return visit 14 days after the index ED visit.
Conclusions. Among Quebec seniors, relational continuity of care measured by UPC may not be an important protective factor against returning to the ED after an index visit. The main study limitations to be considered in the interpretation of these results relate to the use of administrative data, and include potential misclassification of ED visits and return visits, inability to distinguish planned from unplanned return visits, and residual confounding due to covariates that were either not measured or measured at the ecological level (e.g., socioeconomic status).
Research and policy implications. Further research, using different data sources and measures, is needed to investigate the association between continuity of care and ED utilization among seniors in Quebec. (Abstract shortened by UMI.)

Abstract:
This dissertation addresses some of the gaps in the research on pediatric mental health (MH) repeat visits to the emergency department (ED). The primary objectives of this thesis are to systematically review the existing literature on youth MH return visits to the ED and to determine the incremental contribution of family factors in predicting these repeat ED visits. The first study systematically reviewed and qualitatively summarized the available literature to better understand predictor of repeat visits. A search was performed using the following databases: PsycINFO, PubMed, and CINAHL. Reporting followed the PRISMA statement checklist and methodological quality was assessed using the following eight criteria: design, generalizability, breadth of predictors, reporting of effect sizes, additional outcomes, interaction terms, confounding variables, and clear definition of outcome. A total of 178 articles were retrieved; 11 articles met inclusion criteria. Findings revealed that repeat visits to the ED for MH concerns is a complex phenomenon that can be attributed to various demographic, clinical, and MH care access and utilization factors. Common predictors associated with repeat ED MH visits included socioeconomic status, involvement with child protective services, as well as previous and current MH service use. For studies using a six-month repeat window, the most common factors were previous psychiatric hospitalization and currently receiving MH services. This systematic review concluded that in order to further elucidate which variables are most significantly associated with repeat ED visits; future research should consider the use of prospective designs and the inclusion of family factors. Investigating recency and frequency outcomes may also be of importance. The second study aimed to determine if family characteristics are significantly associated with repeat ED visits over and above the contribution of demographic, clinical or service utilization factors. A retrospective cohort study of youth aged six to18 years treated at a tertiary pediatric ED for a discharge diagnosis related to MH was conducted. Data were gathered from medical records, telephone interviews, and questionnaires. Of 266 participants, 70 (26%) had a repeat visit. Receiving MH services within six-months of the index visit, having a parent with a history of treatment for MH concerns, higher severity of symptoms and living closer to the hospital were significantly associated with repeat visits as well as earlier and more frequent repeat visits. Prior psychiatric hospitalization was associated with repeat visits and more frequent repeat visits, while presenting with suicidality was associated with more frequent repeat visits. Family functioning and perceived family burden were not associated with repeat ED visits. This thesis contributes to the growing literature on ED use in pediatric patients with mental illnesses and may be clinically useful to professionals working with repeat visitors. The identification of key factors could provide essential information to ED decision-makers and lead to the development of best practices with this population.

Abstract:
During the COVID-19 pandemic, the number of visits in emergency departments (ED) worldwide decreased significantly based on several studies. This study aims to compare the patient flow in the emergency surgery department during the COVID-19 pandemic and a control period in the emergency department of a public tertiary care hospital in Greece. The overall patient flow reduction regarding the ED visits between the two examined periods was 49.07%. The emergency surgery department’s corresponding visits were 235 and 552, respectively, which indicated an overall patient flow decrease of 57.43%. Chi-square analysis showed that age groups and ambulance use had statistically significant associations with the periods examined. An independent samples t-test was applied and deduced that the average patient’s age was statistically significantly higher in the COVID-19 pandemic than in the non-pandemic period. By analyzing hospital information system data, useful conclusions can be drawn to prepare a surgical emergency unit better and optimize resource allocation in a healthcare facility in similar critical situations.

Abstract:
This case focuses on improving care coordination for patients who have been discharged from the hospital by asking the question: Is it possible to reduce the rate of repeat emergency department and hospital visits after discharge by improving care coordination? The study group included adults admitted to the general medicine service of an urban, academic medical center that serves an “ethnically diverse patient population.” Patients were assigned to nurse discharge advocates who provided the patients with delineated services and assistance during the hospitalization The Project Reengineered Discharge (RED) program substantially reduced repeat emergency department and hospital visits by improving care coordination at the time of hospital discharge.

Abstract:
Commonly defined as having greater than four emergency department (ED) visits in a year, patients who are frequent users of the ED make up an estimated 3.5% to 10% of all ED visits and have been reported to account for nearly a third of all ED use. Frequent ED users have higher mortality, higher hospital admission rates, and higher use of all health care services, both specialty and primary care, compared to other patients using the ED. These patients should have the autonomy to access ED evaluation and care if he or she believes he or she has a medical emergency. This principle has been codified into both federal and many state laws protecting the “prudent layperson standard.” These patients should not be coerced to not seek ED care if the person believes he or she has an emergent condition.

Abstract:
In this study, linear regression and neural network-based hybrid models are developed for modelling the daily ED visits. Month and week of the year, day of the week, and period of the day, are used as input variables of the linear regression model. Generated forecasts and the residuals are further processed through a multilayer perceptron model to improve the performance of forecasting. To obtain forecasts for daily number of patient visits, aggregation is used where the obtained periodical forecasts are summed up. By comparing the performances of models in generating periodical and daily forecasts, this chapter not only shows that hybrid model improves the forecasting performance significantly, but also aggregation fits well in practice.
