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.

A biocompatible Carmedacardioplegia system was developed at Rhode Island Hospital for the administration of crystalloid and blood cardioplegia.

Because a Carmeda coated cardioplegia system does not exist, we designed a system that could be incorporated into a Carmeda coated cardiopulmonary bypass circuit.

AbstractThis article analyzes the national discourse over “the problem” of midwifery in medical literature and examines the impact of this dialogue on Rhode Island from 1890 to 1940. Doctors did not speak as a monolithic bloc on this “problem”: some blamed midwives while others impugned poorly trained physicians. This debate led to curricula reform and to state laws to regulate midwifery. The attempt to eliminate midwives in the 1910s failed because of a shortage of trained obstetricians, and because of cultural barriers between immigrant and mainstream communities.

Abstract:
Objectives. To identify spatiotemporal patterns of epidemic spread at the community level. Methods. We extracted influenza cases reported between 2016 and 2019 and COVID-19 cases reported in March and April 2020 from a hospital network in Rhode Island. We performed a spatiotemporal hotspot analysis to simulate a real-time surveillance scenario. Results. We analyzed 6527 laboratory-confirmed influenza cases and identified microepidemics in more than 1100 neighborhoods, and more than half of the neighborhoods that had hotspots in a season became hotspots in the next season. We used data from 731

Abstract:
Influenza is a contagious respiratory illness and can lead to hospitalization and even death. Understanding how comorbidities affect the severity of influenza can help clinical management. The aim of this study is to offer more information about comorbidities that might be associated with the severity of influenza in children. We used a statewide network in Rhode Island, USA, to extract data for laboratory-confirmed influenza cases among children 19 years old or younger. We identified 1169 lab-confirmed influenza cases. The most common comorbidities were asthma (17.1%), neurodevelopmental diso

COVID-19 disproportionately affects patients with medical comorbidities such as cardiovascular disease (CVD). Patients with CVD are widely prescribed 3-hydroxy-3-methyl-glutayl-CoA (HMG-CoA) reductase inhibitors (statins), a class of lipid-lowering medications known for their pleiotropic anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory effects. However, the relationship between statin use and COVID-19 outcomes is not fully understood. In this preliminary study, we explored the association between statin use and severe COVID-19 outcomes in hospitalized patients, including intensive care unit (ICU) admiss

Abstract Background Prevention of mother to child transmission (PMTCT) of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) requires a comprehensive approach and understanding the cultural backgrounds of pregnant women living with HIV (PWLH). In Rhode Island (RI), 70% of women newly diagnosed with HIV are foreign-born (FB) despite only representing 14% of RI’s population. Understanding the similarities and differences of pregnancy characteristics and engagement in postpartum HIV care between United States born (USB) and FB women is needed to ensure PWLH remain engaged in care and that appropriate resources a
