Abstract:
Objective:A performance improvement task force of Rhode Island infection control professionals was created to develop an epidemiologic model of statewide consistent infection control practices that could reduce the spread of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA).Design:This model encompasses screening protocols, isolation techniques, methods of cohorting positive patients, decolonization issues, postexposure follow-up, microbiology procedures, and standardized surveillance methodologies. These “best practice guidelines” include three categories of recommendations that define priority levels based on the availability of scientific data.Setting:From 1995 through 2000, several Rhode Island hospitals experienced a fivefold increase in nosocomial acquisition of MRSA.Participants:Rhode Island infection control professionals are a highly interactive group in the unique position of sharing patients and ultimately experiencing similar trends and problems.Intervention:The task force collaborated on developing the best hospital infection control practices to prevent and control the spread of MRSA in Rhode Island.Results:The task force met with local infectious disease physicians and representatives from the Rhode Island Department of Health, the Hospital Association of Rhode Island, and Rhode Island Quality Improvement Partners. Discussions identified numerous and diverse MRSA control practices, issues of consensus, and approaches to resolving controversial methods of reducing the spread of MRSA The guidelines regarding the best hospital practices for controlling MRSA were finalized 8 months later.Conclusion:These guidelines were distributed to all chief executive officers of Rhode Island hospitals by the Rhode Island Department of Health in December 2001. They were issued separate and apart from any regulations, with the intent that hospitals will adopt them as best hospital practices in an attempt to control MRSA.

Abstract:
Objective.The year 2010 is the first time that the Rhode Island hospital discharge database included present on admission (POA) indicators, which give us the opportunity to distinguish cases of hospital-onset Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) from cases of community-onset CDI and to assess the burden of hospital-onset CDI in patients discharged from Rhode Island hospitals during 2010 and 2011.Design.Observational study.Patients.Patients 18 years of age or older discharged from one of Rhode Island's 11 acute-care hospitals between January 1, 2010, and December 31, 2011.Methods.Using the newly available POA indicators in the Rhode Island 2010 and 2011 hospital discharge database, we identified patients with hospital-onset CDI and without CDI. Adjusting for patient demographic and clinical characteristics using propensity score matching, we measured between-group differences in mortality, length of stay, and cost for patients with hospital-onset CDI and without CDI.Results.In 2010 and 2011, the 11 acute-care hospitals in Rhode Island had 225,999 discharges. Of 4,531 discharged patients with CDI (2.0% of all discharges), 1,211 (26.7%) had hospital-onset CDI. After adjusting for patient demographic and clinical characteristics, discharged patients with hospital-onset CDI were found to have higher mortality rates, longer lengths of stay, and higher costs than those without CDI.Conclusions.Our results highlight the burden of hospital-onset CDI in Rhode Island. These findings emphasize the need to track longitudinal trends to tailor and target population-health and quality-improvement initiatives.

Abstract:
Background: Electronic health records (EHRs) may reduce medical errors and improve care, but can complicate clinical encounters.Objective: To describe hospital-based physicians’ perceptions of the impact of EHRs on patient-physician interactions and contrast these findings against office-based physicians’ perceptionsMethods: We performed a qualitative analysis of comments submitted in response to the 2014 Rhode Island Health Information Technology Survey. Office- and hospital-based physicians licensed in Rhode Island, in active practice, and located in Rhode Island or neighboring states completed the survey about their Electronic Health Record use.Results: The survey’s response rate was 68.3% and 2,236 (87.1%) respondents had EHRs. Among survey respondents, 27.3% of hospital-based and 37.8% of office-based physicians with EHRs responded to the question about patient interaction. Five main themes emerged for hospital-based physicians, with respondents generally perceiving EHRs as negatively altering patient interactions. We noted the same five themes among office-based physicians, but the rank-order of the top two responses differed by setting: hospital-based physicians commented most frequently that they spend less time with patients because they have to spend more time on computers; office-based physicians commented most frequently on EHRs worsening the quality of their interactions and relationships with patients.Conclusion: In our analysis of a large sample of physicians, hospital-based physicians generally perceived EHRs as negatively altering patient interactions, although they emphasized different reasons than their office-based counterparts. These findings add to the prior literature, which focuses on outpatient physicians, and can shape interventions to improve how EHRs are used in inpatient settings.

Abstract:
We studied uninsured patients admitted to Rhode Island Hospital from January 1 through June 30, 2005, and from January 1 through June 30, 2006. The mean total hospital charge for an uninsured patient with a hospital-acquired infection was $18,487; for those without such an infection, it was $4,951 (P < .001). Multivariable linear regression revealed that a hospital-acquired infection accounted for 11.8 excess hospital days (P = .001). Length of stay was the only independent variable associated with total excess hospital charges.

Abstract:
OBJECTIVES: (1) to investigate trends in non-traumatic dental visits (NTDV) to hospital-based emergency departments (ED) in Rhode Island (RI) and to compare them with those for other ambulatory sensitive care conditions (ACSC); (2) to examine the effect of expansion of Medicaid coverage on the rate NTDV to ED; (3) and to examine community-level factors associated with NTDVs. METHODS: Data for ED visits in 2005–2014 were obtained from RI hospital discharge data and annual population estimates from the U.S.Census Bureau, and were used to calculate annual visit rates. Medicaid enrollment report for the calendar years 2013 and 2014 were used to calculate monthly enrollment and an interrupted time series analysis was used to examine the effect of expansion of Medicaid coverage on visit rates. Zip code was used as a unit of analysis for community-level factor analysis, 2010 data. A negative binomial regression model with log link was performed. RESULTS: From January 2005 to December 2014, the annual average number of ED NTDV was 7440, accounting for 1.4–2.1% of all ED visits each year, there was a slight but not statistically significant decrease in the NTDV rate between 2005 and 2014. Visits for asthma also declined slightly, but the decrease was statistically significant. There were statistically significant increases in ED visit rates for diabetes and back pain. The NTDV rate increased by 34.8/100,000 enrollees per month immediately and significantly after expansion, amounting to more than 1000 additional ED visits. ED visits for asthma and back pain declined immediately after the expansion of coverage, but not significantly so. Community-level factors associated with NTDVs were higher level of poverty and communities with younger population (more individuals aged 20–34 years) which had significantly higher ED NTDV rates. CONCLUSION: RI NTDVs slightly declined, but still accounts for around 1.6% of ED visits. Medicaid expansion under the ACA, caused an immediate increase in NTDVs to ED, that might be attributed to the increased number of Medicaid enrollees, with no change in the workforce. Among community-level factors, high poverty level and high percent of young population had the highest impact on visit rates.<br>2019-09-26T00:00:00Z

Abstract:
La presente propuesta consiste en la construcción de un modelo de integración para la intervención psicológica de las adicciones y sus patologías asociadas a partir de la PBE y del perfil psicológico de los pacientes de la Clínica San Juan de Dios de la ciudad de Manizales. Para ello, se aplico a 80 pacientes con consumo de SPA el Inventario Multifásico de Personalidad de Minnesota (MMPI-2) y del Índice Goldberg. De igual modo, se aplicó la Escala de Evaluación del Cambio de la Universidad de Rhode Island (URICA, por sus siglas en inglés) para evaluar los estadios de predisposición para el cambio y el proceso personal mediante el establecimiento de intervenciones efectivas y personalizadas. También se aplicó el Índice de Severidad de la Adicción (ISA), basándose en el auto-reporte de los consultantes sobre problemas recientes y a lo largo de su vida en las áreas médica, legal, de empleo/sustento, de consumo de alcohol y drogas, de familia/relaciones sociales y psiquiátrica/psicológica. En cada una de estas áreas se incluyó la evaluación de severidad por parte del entrevistador, indicando la necesidad de tratamiento para el consultante. Finalmente, se identificaron las sustancias que consumían los consultantes. Los datos brindaron los insumos para la elaboración de un programa adecuado de tratamiento en los servicios de Hospitalización y Hospital Día del Centro de Atención en Adicciones (CAD) de la Clínica San Juan de Dios, al que se denominó Modelo de Integración para la Intervención Psicológica de las Adicciones Basado en la Evidencia (MIIPABE) y que se presenta en este documento. Se reconoce el rol que desempeña el consumo de SPA en las distintas esferas de la vida y en la relación con el mundo y con los otros, por lo que va más allá del individuo y abarca también intervenciones grupales y familiares.
