Objective: To evaluate the factors associated with pre-hospital time (PHT) in our community. Materials and Methods: The research was carried out at Cardiology Department of Nishtar Hospital, Multan. Patients suffering from acute STEMI (Heart attack due to complete blockage of the blood supply) were marked as the subjects of the study. There was no restriction of age on the sample. In each case, time was calculated from the start of symptoms till arrival at emergency department of Nishtar Hospital Multan. In addition, factors responsible for delay during PHT were inquired and analyzed. Economic

Extended average length of stay (ALOS) leads to increased hospital expenditure. Prioritization of emergency endoscopies over routine elective procedures results in delay and adds on to patients’ ALOS at tertiary hospitals. The gastroenterology department of Fiona Stanley Hospital aimed a service improvement project to shorten the ALOS of inpatients by implementing a new quarantined booking and procedural system allowing elective access to endoscopic procedures. An additional endoscopy list (quarantine list) was implemented with full participation of the stakeholders once a month for a 3-month

Abstract:
IntroductionReducing long length of stay (LLOS, or inpatient stays lasting over 30 days) is an important way for hospitals to improve cost efficiency, bed availability and health outcomes. Discharge delays can cost hundreds to thousands of dollars per patient, and LLOS represents a burden on bed availability for other potential patients. However, most research studies investigating discharge barriers are not LLOS-specific. Of those that do, nearly all are limited by further patient subpopulation focus or small sample size. To our knowledge, our study is the first to describe LLOS discharge bar

We used administrative data from the Ottawa Hospital to build a time-series model of emergency department admissions, and studied models that would predict next-day discharge of patients currently taking up hospital beds.

Non-invasive ventilation (NIV) has been increasingly used over the past decades to avoid endotracheal intubation (ETI) in critical care settings. In selected patients with acute respiratory failure, NIV improves the overall clinical status more rapidly than standard oxygen therapy, avoids ETI and its complications, reduces length of hospital stay, and improves survival. NIV is primarily indicated in respiratory failure due to acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, cardiogenic pulmonary oedema and associated with immunocompromised states.

Postoperative pain management is an important aspect of caring for a surgical patient as inadequate pain control can be associated with increased morbidity and mortality.

Abstract:
Abstract In this paper we model the distribution of length of stay in hospital of geriatric patients. We assume that length of stay has a mixed generalized Erlang distribution and, given data from patients in a geriatric ward of a London hospital, reversible jump methods are used to estimate the predictive distribution of length of stay in hospital. We also address the problem of optimizing the number of beds in hospital with respect to average cost per unit of time where costs are based on lost demand, the number of unoccupied beds and the different types of patients in the hospital.

Abstract:
Hospital overcrowding is a major problem for healthcare systems around the globe. In order to better estimate future demands and adequate resources for coping with such demands, statistical and computerised modelling can be applied. This can then allow healthcare administrators and decision makers to quantify the impacts of various “what-if” scenarios on hospital performance measures. This paper investigates the application of Discrete Event Simulation towards optimising Emergency Department resources while measuring overall length of stay and queuing time of emergency patients as a target per

Abstract:
Acute brain injury (ABI) affects about 100 million individuals annually, which interferes with the length of hospital stay of these individuals. The most visible complication of the hospital stay is ICU-acquired muscle weakness (FAUTI), which has a negative impact on functionality. The objective of this study was to observe the pattern of neurocritical individuals hospitalized in an adult intensive care unit, its relationship with the impact that the pathology has on strength and, respectively, on functionality.

Bipolar hemiarthroplasty (BHA) is a common treatment for femoral neck fractures, but post-surgery pain can delay recovery. This study retrospectively analyzed 87 BHA patients from 2016–2020, categorizing them into two groups: Group I (n = 42) received serial injection nerve blocks (SINB) before and after surgery, while Group II (n = 41) did not. Pain was measured using a visual analog scale at multiple time points post-surgery. The groups were also compared for hospital stay length and perioperative complications. Results indicated that Group I patients, who received SINB, had significantly lo

Abstract:
The ability of hospital staff to get a patient to the right bed at the right time is dependent on bed occupancy, and is a key issue in all acute hospitals. This paper seeks to identify the impact of admission and discharge timing on hospital occupancy with reference to the peak in daily admissions and discharges. Patient admissions data from 23 Queensland public hospitals was classified into categories based on the relative timing of daily admission and discharge curves. We found statistically significant differences in mean and peak occupancy and patient length of stay between categories (one

Abstract:
Some infants are born prematurely or with medical conditions that require them to stay in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs). Typically, these infants spend most of their time in an incubator as it provides a safe and controlled environment. At times, these infants will need to be transported via helicopter from one hospital to another, which exposes their already fragile bodies to higher levels of vibration. Helicopters, while advantageous for medical transport, generate substantial vibration due to rotor dynamics. Current models of incubators lack specific design for reducing vibrations.
