Abstract:

Charge markups for health care are variable and inflated several times beyond cost. Using the 2015 Medicare Provider Fee-For-Service Utilization and Payment Data file, we identified providers who billed for critical care hours and related procedures, including CPR, EKG interpretation, central line placement, arterial line placement, chest tube/thoracentesis, and emergent endotracheal intubation. Markup ratios (MRs), defined as the amount charged divided by the amount allowable, were calculated and compared; 42.1 per cent of physicians billing for critical care–related services were specialized

Abstract:

Silicone, a synthetic polymer containing the element silicon, has been used for breast implants. Complications resulting from the placement of silicone breast implants are becoming more frequent in clinical practice. Breast implant rupture is common and poses challenges for radiologists and physicians. Radiologists must be familiar with the normal and abnormal findings of common implants. Clinically apparent silicone granulomas are a relatively rare complication of breast implant placement and surgical resection is indicated when they are symptomatic or of diagnostic concern.

AbstractIntroduction:Prehospital physicians balance the need to stabilize patients prior to transport, minimizing the delay to transport patients to the appropriate level of care. Literature has focused on which interventions should be performed in the prehospital environment, with airway management, specifically prehospital intubation (PHI), being a commonly discussed topic. However, few studies have sought additional factors which influence scene time or quantify the impact of mission characteristics or therapeutic interventions on scene time.Hypothesis/Problem:The goal of this study was to

Chronic pain impacts more than 100 million Americans and has a significant impact on the economy and quality of life. Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) has demonstrated efficacy in managing a growing number of chronic pain conditions. This in combination with an increasing number of physicians trained in SCS placement has produced significant changes in utilization, expense and sites of service related to SCS. In particular, there has been a large increase in SCS placement by non-surgeons, use of percutaneous leads and performance in ambulatory surgery centers instead of inpatient settings. There

Abstract:

Abstract In large academic institutions, there are multiple disciplines and clinical scenarios that may require placement of inferior vena cava filters (IVCF). Both the Society of Interventional Radiology (SIR) and the American College of Chest Physicians (ACCP) have released guidelines for IVCF use, with the ACCP guidelines being more stringent due to the lack of survival benefit supported by level I data. Several publications have reported high rates of retrievable IVCF complications. In response to these risks and low retrieval rates, the U.S. FDA issued an updated safety alert in 2014 reco

Abstract A patient experienced complications following insertion and use of 2 similar vascular access devices with tip termination apparently in the subclavian veins. The thrombotic complications that developed were identified and reported in the first incident (a) as an occluded catheter, and then (b) as bleeding complications with delayed reporting for 8 days with the second catheter. The result was symptomatic deep vein thrombosis, thoracic outlet syndrome, and permanent nerve damage in both right and left extremities used for the venous catheter. The patient brought charges of malpractice

Generalists (PCPs and PCNs) express a need for information and training in post-treatment care. Based on models in other contexts a clinical placement program was developed at a comprehensive cancer centre to determine (1) its feasibility and acceptability, and (2) whether learning needs were met.

Abstract:

Background: In Canada, the decreasing numbers of family physicians and the small number of midwives providing obstetric care have been associated with a decline in access to maternity services. Several studies and policy documents support the development of models to enhance collaboration between midwives and physicians and to expose trainees to these models. A pilot project was undertaken to implement and evaluate an interprofessional learning opportunity involving midwifery students (MWSs) and family medicine residents (FMRs). Methods: The aim was to describe how FMRs and MWSs develop skills

ABSTRACT No previous works have analyzed whether the order in which surgical teams see patients on morning rounds affects discharge efficiency at teaching hospitals. We obtained perioperative urologic surgery timing data at our academic institution from 2014 to 2019. We limited the analysis to routine postoperative day 1 discharges. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to determine whether various hospital and patient factors were associated with discharge timing. We analyzed 1,494 patients. Average discharge order time was 11:22 a.m. and hospital discharge 1:24 p.m. Univariate

Community service learning programs in pre-clerkship medical education are increasingly recognized as important in creating physicians who recognize the effects of one’s environment on their health and further strive to advocate for these patients to receive access to social programs that can improve their outcomes. The University of Ottawa Aesculapian Society recognized that an excellent method for providing early exposure to service opportunities in one’s new community is through Orientation Weeks. Prior to this year, no Orientation Week across Ontario had a philanthropy focus. Philanthropy

Home mechanical ventilation has evolved to permit discharge of patients on portable negative or positive pressure mechanical ventilators. Assessment of the patient for home discharge is initiated by a multidisciplinary team. The nurse, physician, social worker, respiratory therapist, speech therapist, occupational therapist, home health nursing agency, durable medical equipment supplier, and caregivers constitute the team. The crucial links to a successful patient discharge are an involved family and a well-developed plan of care, although patient finances also are important. The nurse develop

Emergency Medical Services and the care of patients in the field have taken giant steps forward over the past decade. Born of the desire of physicians to influence the mortality rates of sudden cardiac death in the community, systems of advanced life support have taken root in the urban centers in the United Kingdom, Australia, the United States, and other countries (1-3). Although originally largely designed around the concept of “mobile coronary care,” these systems soon were deluged with calls for help from all sectors of the community, and faced a variety of medical problems.
