Abstract:

Object Pediatric intracranial aneurysms are rare lesions that differ from their adult counterparts. Aneurysms involving the middle cerebral artery (MCA) are particularly challenging to treat in children, as they are often fusiform and cannot undergo direct clipping alone. The authors recently treated a patient with a heavily calcified, dysplastic, left-sided MCA aneurysm. The present study was performed to evaluate the authors' previous operative and follow-up experience with these difficult lesions. Methods The authors performed a review of a prospectively maintained database of all aneurysms treated at Methodist Hospital in Indianapolis, Indiana, from January 1990 through November 2010. Relevant operative notes, clinical charts, and radiological reports were reviewed for all patients 18 years of age or younger. Results A total of 2949 patients with aneurysms were treated over the study period, including 28 children (0.95%). Seven children harbored MCA aneurysms. Five of these 7 aneurysms (71.4%) were fusiform. Two patients were treated with direct clipping, 2 underwent parent vessel occlusion without bypass, and 3 underwent aneurysm trapping with extracranial-intracranial vessel bypass. Long-term follow-up data were available in 6 cases. All 6 patients had a 1-year follow-up Glasgow Outcome Scale score of 5. Long-term radiological follow-up was available in 4 patients. One patient required a reoperation for a recurrent aneurysm 4 years after the initial surgery. Conclusions Middle cerebral artery aneurysms in children are often fusiform, giant, and incorporate the origins of proximal artery branches. Direct clipping may not be possible; trapping of the lesion may be required. Children seem to tolerate surgical trapping with or without bypass extremely well. Aggressive therapy of these rare lesions in children is warranted, as even patients presenting with a poor clinical grade may have excellent outcomes. Long-term surveillance imaging is necessary because of the risk of aneurysm recurrence.

Abstract:

A process change with the goal of decreasing and ultimately eliminating bloodstream infections associated with central catheters in critical care patients was implemented at Riverside Methodist Hospital. This process of implementation resulted in a culture change in the hospital’s medical surgical intensive care unit. Keys to success included a multidisciplinary team approach, support from persons with a stake in the process, and provision of continuous feedback. The lessons learned in this journey at Riverside Methodist Hospital can help caregivers at other hospitals decrease the occurrence of these life-threatening infections.

Abstract:

In 1868 Ulysses S. Grant remarked that there were three great parties in the United States: the Republican, the Democratic, and the Methodist Church. This was an understandable tribute, given the active role of leading Methodists in his presidential campaign, but it was also a realistic judgment, when set in the context of the denomination's growing political authority over the previous half century. As early as 1819, when, with a quarter of a million members, “the Methodists were becoming quite numerous in the country,” the young exhorter Alfred Branson noted that “politicians… from policy favoured us, though they might be skeptical as to religion,” and gathered at county seats to listen to the preachers of a denomination whose “votes counted as fast at an election as any others.” Ten years later, the newly elected Andrew Jackson stopped at Washington, Pennsylvania, en route from Tennessee to his presidential inauguration. When both Presbyterians and Methodists invited him to attend their services, Old Hickory sought to avoid the political embarrassment of seeming to favor his own church over the fastest-growing religious movement in the country by attending both—the Presbyterians in the morning and the Methodists at night. In Indiana in the early 1840s the church's growing power led the Democrats to nominate for governor a known Methodist, while tarring their Whig opponents with the brush of sectarian bigotry. Nationally, as the combined membership of the Methodist Episcopal Church [MEC] and Methodist Episcopal Church, South [MECS] grew to over one and a half million by the mid-1850s, denominational leaders could be found complaining that the church was so strong that each political party was “eager to make her its tool.” Thus Elijah H. Pilcher, the influential Michigan preacher, found himself in 1856 nominated simultaneously by state Democratic, Republican, and Abolition conventions.

Abstract:

This article examines the dry crusade that brought Prohibition to the nation by tracing the early life and career of one of its chief state-level leaders. Born in Ohio and raised in Illinois, Edward S. Shumaker made a career for himself in Indiana, where he led the Indiana branch of the Anti Saloon League from the early 1900s until his death in 1929. His story demonstrates how religious and cultural influences merged in the American heartland into a moral reform movement that combined elements of traditional religion and politics with the Social Gospel and progressivism. As Shumaker saw it, the prohibition movement rested upon a fundamental argument about what it meant to be an American during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. A powerful force in Shumaker's life as in the nation overall, the dry reform transformed Shumaker from a young man seemingly destined to hold a conventional Methodist pastorate into a political activist who helped make the nation dry.

Abstract:

In November 1990, the Texas Attorney General filed a lawsuit against The Methodist Hospital System, alleging that it had failed in its duty to provide enough charity care to poor people. The state claimed that the hospital provided significantly less charity care than the hospital reported; it then filed the suit in an effort to require specific performance—that is, to compel the hospital to provide greater amounts of charity care in the future. The case focuses on the amount of charity care provided before the suit, the economic value of the tax exemption provided to the hospital because it is a not-for-profit (NFP) hospital, and the responsibilities of the hospital given the expectations of society. The case also brings into sharp relief the value of having tax-exempt status and the social and political expectations that accompany the exemption. In addition, the case raises ethical questions concerning these issues, as well as issues involving the financial reporting of the entity and management perquisites.

Abstract:

The nursing shortage is projected to grow to well over 500,000 by 2020. Health care organizations are faced with increasing vacancies, mandating that strategic initiatives be developed to address the imperative of retaining their registered nurses (RNs). The implications for reducing RN turnover include improved safety and quality outcomes for patients. RN turnover also has financial implications. The average annual hospital cost of RN turnover is between $5.2 and $8.1 million dollars. Houston Methodist Hospital in the Texas Medical Center is a large, 1,200-bed metropolitan facility that employs over 3,000 nurses. By using shared governance to engage bedside clinicians and the ADKAR change model, nurse leaders were able to reduce organizational RN turnover from 16.39% to 10.57%, outperforming the national average and the American Nurses Credentialing Center’s benchmark for Magnet facilities with greater than or equal to 700 beds. This article will discuss the role of nurse leaders in creating a culture of retention, methods that were implemented at Houston Methodist Hospital to engage and empower beside clinicians to assume a lead role in reducing RN turnover, and the best practices discovered and implemented by bedside clinicians to improve RN turnover.

Abstract:

– Two modified continent Indiana Pouch techniques are presented, one of which using gastrointestinal anastomosis (GIA) staplers. The authors describe their experience with 88 patients who underwent the above operation at the Divisions of Urology in the Maria Vittoria Hospital of Turin and S. Maria Nuova Hospital of Reggio Emilia. Mean follow-up is 18 months (range 4-26). A total of 24 post-operative complications are described: 2 bowel obstructions, 4 strictures of the stoma, 3 parastomal hernias, 1 pouchitis and 1 acute pyelonephritis, 2 cases of incontinence, 2 of over-distension of the pouch, 5 ureteral obstructions and 4 cases of diarrhoea. Neither stones of the pouch nor metabolic acidosis were observed. Using GIA staplers for tailoring the pouch saves 120 minutes operating time for an additional cost of about 600 $.

AbstractThe COVID-19 pandemic has created a global mayhem. Patient care has been severely affected. Patients with chronic conditions such as dialysis-dependent end stage renal diseases are finding it challenging to seek out continuous treatment. Ground breaking work by Dr. Ravikanth Yalamuri of Methodist TexSan Hospital is paving new pathways for tackling patient volume in hospital settings, especially in hospices. In particular, Dr. Yalamuri has provided succinct insights into empathetic caring for the unbefriended patients. These elderly orphans have major issues with cognition and require high levels of social aids and support, especially when they are admitted to the hospital or when they have a terminal illness. Dr. Yalamuri has highlighted the utility of operations research in these multifaceted disease model prediction.

Abstract:

With approximately 3% of the Houston Methodist Hospital Emergency Department’s (ED) 2017 annual volume presenting with resource-intensive psychiatric conditions, a 6-prong approach was applied to address the growing area of concern on how to best manage this unique population safely and efficiently through the provision of high quality care. This approach included (1) the provision of dedicated care space, (2) placement of a trained team of providers and clinical staff, (3) contracting with a third-party, rapid-screen care team, (4) application of new technology, (5) instilling a partnership with the ancillary team, and (6) extending care after the hospital stay for better management of the longevity of the patients’ medical issues. Through these efforts, the overall time from ED arrival to ED departure for psychiatric patients who were discharged was reduced by 36%. In addition, the admit decision time to ED departure time for psychiatric patients was reduced by 30% from 2016 to the third quarter of 2017. Additionally, the number of violent patient incidents in the ED mental health unit was reduced to zero from 2016 to the third quarter of 2017, a number that is holding to date. Via the presence of heightened security measures, approximately 50% fewer security dispatches were requested in 2018 than in 2017. This is even more profound when considering the 9% growth in overall ED patient volume over the same time period. Thus, through the application of a multifaceted approach to the care of patients with mental health and substance use disorders presenting to the Houston Methodist Hospital ED there was an observed significant positive effect. Continued diligence to this topic in addition to further expanded resources are needed in both the community and clinical setting to mitigate the negative cycle of patients unnecessarily returning to the hospital or landing in jail that currently exists.

Abstract:

The treatment of drug-refractory chronic ventricular tachycardia (VT) has undergone a revolution over the last 50 years. We now have automatic implantable cardioverter defibrillator therapy with pace-terminating capabilities, and catheter ablation of VT has refined mapping and improved methods of lesion generation. Between 1980 and 1993, Houston Methodist Hospital became a leader in the diagnosis and surgical ablation of VT and other arrhythmias. This is a brief account of that period and some of the experiences and lessons that have led to significant advances used today.

AbstractFrom 1896 to 1942, a Japanese hospital operated in the village of Steveston, British Columbia, Canada. For the first 4 years, Japanese Methodist missionaries utilized a small mission building as a makeshift hospital, until a larger institution was constructed by the local Japanese Fishermen’s Association in 1900. The hospital operated until the Japanese internment, after the attack on Pearl Harbor during World War II. This study offers important commentary about the relationships between health, hospitals, and race in British Columbia during a period of increased immigration and economic upheaval. From the unique perspective of Japanese leaders, this study provides new insight about how Japanese populations negotiated hospital care, despite a context of severe racial discrimination. Japanese populations utilized Christianization, fishing expertise, and hospital work to garner more equitable access to opportunities and resources. This study demonstrates that in addition to providing medical treatment, training grounds for health-care workers, and safe refuge for the sick, hospitals played a significant role in confronting broader racialized inequities in Canada’s past.

Abstract:

Background The COVID-19 pandemic has necessitated a rapid increase of space in highly infectious disease intensive care units (ICUs). At Houston Methodist Hospital (HMH), a virtual intensive care unit (vICU) was used amid the COVID-19 outbreak. Objective The aim of this paper was to detail the novel adaptations and rapid expansion of the vICU that were applied to achieve patient-centric solutions while protecting staff and patients’ families during the pandemic. Methods The planned vICU implementation was redirected to meet the emerging needs of conversion of COVID-19 ICUs, including alterations to staged rollout timing, virtual and in-person staffing, and scope of application. With the majority of the hospital critical care physician workforce redirected to rapidly expanded COVID-19 ICUs, the non–COVID-19 ICUs were managed by cardiovascular surgeons, cardiologists, neurosurgeons, and acute care surgeons. HMH expanded the vICU program to fill the newly depleted critical care expertise in the non–COVID-19 units to provide urgent, emergent, and code blue support to all ICUs. Results Virtual family visitation via the Consultant Bridge application, palliative care delivery, and specialist consultation for patients with COVID-19 exemplify the successful adaptation of the vICU implementation. Patients with COVID-19, who were isolated and separated from their families to prevent the spread of infection, were able to virtually see and hear their loved ones, which bolstered the mental and emotional status of those patients. Many families expressed gratitude for the ability to see and speak with their loved ones. The vICU also protected medical staff and specialists assigned to COVID-19 units, reducing exposure and conserving personal protective equipment. Conclusions Telecritical care has been established as an advantageous mechanism for the delivery of critical care expertise during the expedited rollout of the vICU at Houston Methodist Hospital. Overall responses from patients, families, and physicians are in favor of continued vICU care; however, further research is required to examine the impact of innovative applications of telecritical care in the treatment of critically ill patients.

Abstract:

Although various interventions targeted at reducing hospital readmissions have been identified in the literature, little is known about actual operationalization of such evidence-based interventions. This study conducted a systematic review and a survey of key informants in 2 leading hospitals, Houston Methodist (HM) and MD Anderson Cancer Center (MDACC), to compare and contrast the most cited evidence-based interventions in the current literature with interventions reported by those hospitals. The authors found that both hospitals followed evidence-based practices reported as successful in the literature. Both hospitals have implemented interventions for inpatient settings, and the timing of interventions was very similar. Major implementation differences observed for post-discharge interventions focused on collaboration. It also was found that HM was more likely than MDACC to use medication reconciliation in outpatient ( P = .018) and discharge planning for community/home patients ( P = .032). Results will provide hospital professionals with insights for implementing the most effective interventions to reduce readmissions.

Abstract:

Intravenous (IV) administration errors present a particularly challenging problem to hospital pharmacists. Current control systems intercept only 2% of drug administration errors causing preventable adverse drug events (PADEs).4 Estimated costs per preventable ADE are $4685 (1993 dollars). Of the most serious, life-threatening errors, 60% are associated with IV therapy. Conventional, general-purpose infusion devices cannot limit doses or easily be customized for specific patient populations. Clarian Health Partners, a 1400-bed health care system, consolidated infusion devices at three hospitals by implementing the MEDLEY Medication Safety System with Guardrails Safety Software. This new technology offers an innovative IV medication safety platform that functions at the point of care. Clarian became the first U.S. health care system to use this system on a hospital-wide basis. Development of a customized data set based on Clarian's best-practice guidelines was completed in 60 days, and installation at the 775-bed Methodist Hospital was completed in 3 hours. A potentially serious error was averted on the first day of system use. Initial data indicate that use of the IV medication safety system at Clarian's three hospitals will result in 4,000 events of reprogramming annually due to Guardrails alerts.

Abstract:

Objectives: Rifaximin is approved for the reduction of hepatic encephalopathy (HE) recurrence in patients with chronic liver disease (CLD); however, few studies have evaluated the benefit of adding rifaximin to lactulose for treatment of acute HE. The aim of this study was to determine the impact of combination therapy with lactulose and rifaximin on hospital length of stay (LOS) and readmission rates. Methods: A retrospective study of patients admitted to an adult hospital within the Methodist LeBonheur Healthcare (MLH) System in Memphis, Tennessee, between 2007 and 2012 was conducted. Patients were identified via International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision ( ICD-9) coding for liver cirrhosis. Results: Of the 173 patients included, 87 (50%) received lactulose monotherapy and 62 (36%) combination therapy, while 24 (14%) underwent therapy escalation. Median LOS was 6 days in monotherapy group and 8 days in combination group ( P = .9). At 180 days, patients receiving combination therapy had fewer readmissions for HE than those receiving monotherapy (2.4% vs 16.2%, P = .02). Conclusion: Addition of rifaximin to lactulose for treatment of acute HE did not reduce hospital LOS; however, it did result in lower readmission rates for HE at 180 days.

Abstract:

Abstract In the 1970’s hybrid arts and humanities programs began developing within healthcare systems across the country. Today, the National Organization for Arts in Health (NOAH) represents a network of hundreds of programs with a major focus of serving older people and their caregivers. This presentation will provide an overview of this rapidly developing network along with a multimedia overview of a comprehensive arts and medicine hospital based program in the Texas Medical Center: Houston Methodist Hospital’s System Center for Performing Arts Medicine one of NOAH’s founding members. The Center’s expanding national, regional and community network of artist health, arts integration, creative arts therapy, research, and outreach programs serving older people will be described. Demonstrating how arts in health communicate and elevate value across disciplines through program evaluation (patient satisfaction and employee opinion), clinical research, and financial and outcome data will be explored as a case study.

Abstract:

In 1986, the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals in Ball Memorial Hospital v. Mutual Hospital Insurance denied an injunction sought under the antitrust laws by the plaintiffs, eighty acute care hospitals, which would have precluded Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Indiana from implementing a Preferred Provider Organization. The Ball court used a conservative economic analysis to deny the injunction and failed to consider many industry-specific factors. This Note examines these factors and challenges the Ball court’s position by arguing that antitrust scrutiny of alternative health care delivery markets must go beyond the court’s narrow approach.
