Abstract:

This thesis started with the assumption that there are major defects in the Saudi referral system between GPs and specialists in hospitals. An ideal referral system was created from different resources in order to compare it with the Saudi one. In a latter stage of this research, it became apparent that these defects were only symptoms of the defects in the whole Saudi PHC system. Four different research methods were used to measure how close the ideal the Saudi referral system was, namely; questionnaires, interviewees, field observation and triangulation (city, town and village).

<p>HIV/AIDS is the largest and most serious global epidemic in the recent times. To date, the epidemic has affected approximately 40 million people (range 33 &ndash<br>46 million) of whom 67%, that is, an estimated 27 million people are in the Sub Saharan Africa. The Sub Saharan Africa is also reported to have the highest regional prevalence of 7.2% compared to an average of 2% in other regions. A medical cure for HIV/AIDS remains elusive but use of antiretroviral therapy (ART) has resulted in improvement of quality and quantity of life as evidenced by the reduction of mortality and morbidity

<p>When school-based behavior problems are not solvable in short-term school counseling, referrals are often made to community therapists.

Introduction The Saudi healthcare system was established in 1926, and consisted of three levels of service: (i) primary; (ii) secondary; and (iii) tertiary healthcare that are currently available through the Ministry of Health (MOH) network. The primary healthcare (PHC) system serves as a gatekeeper to secondary and tertiary healthcare. The referral system, or the process between primary and secondary care, is essential in the management of healthcare systems, as well as chronic non-communicable diseases (NCD).

Assisting smokers to quit and stay quit is the most important intervention clinicians can undertake to improve the length and quality of life of patients who use tobacco.

Assistance with a referral increases the likelihood that patients will participate in counseling, but few clinicians regularly assist with referrals to tobacco treatment programs.

In essence, the environment of a referral is distributed, and there are huge volumes of data having to be exchanged between referring and referred-to providers. If we could take advantage of information technologies to exchange referral information, the integration of the clinical or demographic data in different hospitals may be more easily, and then, the unnecessary examinations and the waste of medical resources could be r

However, the concern about data is accompanied with IT infrastructure construction. These concerns include whether hackers may steal or alter the content of medical information; Any illegal access may happen intentionally. Thus, network security is becoming a crucial factor in the growth and development medical information system of the Internet. Thi

Abstract:

Background and objectives There has been a steady annual increase in the number of deliveries performed at Chris Hani Baragwanath Hospital in recent years. A 2004 audit found that approximately one third of deliveries conducted at the hospital were of women who had referred themselves and were low risk and as such did not require delivery at a specialist centre. A triage down-referral system back to midwife obstetric units was implemented in 2008 to address the problem of low-risk self-referrals at the hospital. This study was conducted after the establishment of the triage system to find out

Abstract:

When referring physicians decide to refer their patients to specialist care, they rarely, if ever, make a referral decision with the benefit of having access to all of the desirable information. It is therefore highly unlikely that the referring physician will make the optimal choice of specialist for that particular referral. A specialist selection optimization algorithm was developed to guarantee that the “right specialist” for each patient’s referral was chosen. The specialist selection optimization algorithm was developed based on feedback from over 120 users of the e-referral program. The

MMed (Paediatrics), Faculty of Health Sciences, University of the Witwatersrand<br>The aim of regionalisation of neonatal services is to offer a basic level of care to the majority of the obstetric/neonatal population who are at low risk, with smaller numbers of more specialised hospitals offering higher levels of care to the fewer, higher-risk patients. On review of relevant literature there has long been a shortage of neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) beds in the South African public sector. This study was an audit within a referral system in the public sector. The aim was to identify
