Résumé :

This project compared the cost-effectiveness of drug therapy, stents and surgery for Australian patients with heart disease, modelling their long-term treatment trajectories, costs and health outcomes. It showed that drug therapy is high-value and that the health system, and Australians, would benefit from targeted rather than routine use of stents. This research provides policy recommendations to reduce the use of low-value care and increase the use of high-value care for Australian patients with heart disease.

Résumé :

Whilst technology use has always been a part of the practice of health care delivery, more recently, information technology has been applied to aspects of clinical work concerned with documentation. This thesis presents an analysis of the ways that two professional groups, one clinical and one ancillary, at a single hospital cooperatively engage in a work practice that has recently been computerised. It investigates the way that a clinical group???s approach to and actual use of the system creates problems for the ancillary group. It understands these problems to arise from the contrasting way

Résumé :

Health care providers in the United States, United Kingdom and Australia debate the need for expanding the role of podiatrists' to include the surgical care of foot problems.

With the inevitable adoption of information technology into all areas of human pursuit, the potential benefits for health care should not be overlooked.

The studies in the thesis were derived from a program of research focused on centre-based child care in Australia.

The project was conducted in thirty-two child care centres located in south-east Queensland.

Mr Taylor introduced his Bill to the Western Australian Legislative Assembly on 28 March 1995. The Bill codified the terminally ill patient's right to refuse medical treatment, which clarified common law.

The primary health care (PHC) model is being actively promoted as an effective and lower-cost alternative to conventional health care delivery systems in many developing countries. Despite the fact that over 300 PHC projects of varying scale have been implemented and reported on throughout the Third World over the past two decades, there appears to be little evidence available to support the popular hypothesis that the availability and utilization of primary health care services necessarily results in significant improvements in health.

BACKGROUND Increasingly, it is recognised that the unique needs of people from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds (CaLDB) should be addressed within a framework of cultural competence.

Appreciation of an individual???s values, attitudes and beliefs underpins negotiation of behaviour change in the CR setting. Therefore an understanding of patient and professional interactions is of key importance. OBJECTIVES The focus of this study has been to undertake an exploration o

This thesis investigated the cost-effectiveness of guideline-based care to manage patients with venous leg ulcers in the Australian setting. It showed that both the healthcare system and patients affected by venous leg ulcers would benefit from implementing and funding guideline-based care. This research provided important evidence to policy makers on the most efficient use of scarce health resources to manage venous leg ulcers. It is expected that these results will support changes to the reimbursement structure to increase access to guideline-based care for venous leg ulcers in Australia.

Hospitals worldwide are under pressure to perform and models abound to remedy poor performance. Reform, however, is contested, uneven and slow. One reason is that few models address a core issue in reform: the management of clinical work. A further reason is that stakeholder groups, specifically policymakers, managers and clinicians, limit opportunities for collaborative problem solving as they seek to impose their own frame of reference in the struggle for control. I hypothesise that performance will be relatively better in hospitals that have in place strategies of agreement to set the ob
