Abstract:
Traditionally, hospital emergency readiness plans primarily addressed natural disasters, but because of preparations for year 2000, the arrival of terrorism in the United States, and the potential for mass casualties, hospitals were prompted to bring together new partners and create new emergency readiness plans. These new plans, however, give rise to a number of important issues hospitals must consider. First, hospitals must consider legal liability that might arise during an emergency. For example, what liability might arise when decision are made regarding the provision of individual treatm

This article examines the Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act (EMTALA) in a public health emergency context. Congress enacted EMTALA in 1986 to prohibit the practice of “patient clumping,” which involved hospitals’ refusal to undertake emergency screening and stabilization services for individual patients who sought emergency room care, typically because of insurance status, inability to pay, or other grounds unrelated to the patient’s need for the services or the hospital’s ability to provide them.

In August 2001, the Israeli Ministry of Health issued its Limitation of Smoking in Public Places Order, categorically forbidding smoking in hospitals. This forced the mental health system to cope with the issue of smoking inside psychiatric hospitals. The main problem was smoking by compulsorily hospitalized psychiatric patients in closed wards. An attempt by a psychiatric hospital to implement the tobacco smoking restraint instruction by banning the sale of cigarettes inside the hospital led to the development of a black market and cases of patient exploitation in return for cigarettes.

Abstract:
Mercury emissions from waste-to-energy facilities have been a source of public concern for more than ten years following release in the early 1990s of the EPA’s inventory of anthropogenic sources of mercury that listed MWCs as a significant source of mercury air emissions. Since 1990, source reduction, product reformulation, and increasingly effective battery recycling programs reduced mercury in trash by about 90%, according to the EPA. Pollution control equipment on waste-to-energy plants thereafter remove greater than 90% of the remaining mercury in the waste stream that is used as a fuel t

Abstract: Global asthma network has Sri Lanka marked as one of the highest prevalence countries. Physical activity and quality sleep has been shown to produce health benefits to adults with asthma; however, the association between physical activity, sleep quality and asthma control is unknown. The aims of the study were to determine: the level of asthma control, physical activity, sleep quality and its associations amongst adults with asthma. A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted among 180 patients diagnosed with asthma attending to chest clinics at Colombo South Teaching Hospital

ABSTRACT Background: In diabetes mellitus, hyperglycemia causes oxidative stress that enhances the production of free radicals. The presence of higher levels of malondialdehyde (MDA) indicates the rise of free radicals. On the basis of its role as an antioxidant that binds free radicals and reduces the level of malondialdehyde (MDA). Soursop leaf can act as an antidiabetic agent. This study aimed to examine the efficacy of soursop leaf extract (Annona muricata L.) to decrease the level of MDA level in alloxan-induced diabetic rats (Rattus norvegicus).

The lack of semantic information is a big challenge, even in context-driven areas like Healthcare, characterized by established terminologies. Here, semantic data integration is the solution to provide precise information and answers to questions like: What is the care pathway of newborns diagnosed with a congenital anomaly in consequence of congenital syphilis in the city of Sao Paulo? This project will use a semantic data integration technique, ontology based data integration, to integrate three health databases from the city of Sao Paulo - Brazil: mortality, live births and hospital informa

Abstract:
Background: Eating disorders (EAs) represent a significant public health problem, given the growing incidence and increasingly early onset among the youngest. The COVID-19 pandemic has triggered or further exacerbated these disorders, especially in adolescents. Given the EAs multifactorial nature, it is important to combine universal prevention approaches, which act on strengthening protective factors, with selective and indicated prevention interventions, specifically aimed at subjects at greater risk of developing EAs. EAs screening allows an early identification of these people in order to

Abstract:
Prolonged hospital stays, or hospital stays that are longer than medically necessary, are a major concern for patients, payers, and providers. We conceptualize and empirically estimate the prevalence and cost of prolonged stays among elderly hospital patients (65 years and older) in Brazil and Mexico. We develop a continuum-of-care conceptual framework based on prior literature and insights obtained through interviews and focus group discussions with experts from Mexico, Argentina, and Colombia. In this framework, hospitals are part of a wider system. This system involves both pre-admission an

Abstract:
Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) are important but little studied financial actors that control over $3.5 trillion in gross assets and over 500,000 properties in the U.S. Yet they have been largely ignored because tax rules define them as ‘passive investors.’ The evidence in this report shows that they are actually financial actors that aggressively buy up property assets and manage them to extract wealth at taxpayers’ expense. This study identifies the powerful impact that REITs, as owners of the real estate that houses productive enterprises, have had on operating companies and on the U

Abstract:
Demand for public hospital emergency departments’ services and care is increasing, placing considerable restraint on their performance and threatens patient safety. Many factors influence such demand including individual characteristics (e.g. perceptions, knowledge, values and norms), healthcare availability, affordability and accessibility, population aging, and internal health system factors (e.g patient flow, discharge process). To alleviate demand, many initiatives have been trialled or suggested, including early identification of at-risk patients, better management of chronic disease to r

Abstract:
One of the roles of the ANE OR/TA Project in India was to participate in policy dialogues with national counterparts, in the public sector and among NGOs, about expanding contraceptive choices, and to provide technical assistance for facilitating changes in service-delivery procedures. The public sector provides five contraceptive methods through its 11,500 hospitals and primary health care facilities. NGOs, private physicians, and pharmacies have access to a broader range of brands. While India is one of the world's leaders in contraceptive research, in recent years products have come to mark

PHC reform in Mongolia aimed at facilitating a shift from hospital-based curative services toward preventive approaches. It included introducing new management models based on public–private partnerships, increasing the range of services, applying more effective financin

Abstract:
There is insufficient scientific evidence to know whether the presence of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies confers protection from subsequent infections, and if so at what level. Antibodies are only one part of the immune response to infection. Tests that detect SARS-CoV-2 antibodies are available. They can determine whether someone has had COVID-19. Tests can reveal those who are unaware that they had COVID-19 because they had mild or no symptoms. Test samples must be analysed in a laboratory – no home tests are authorised for use in the UK.

In January 1997, IRC assumed the additional responsibility of the camp hospital, bringing the entire health sector under their management.
