Abstract:
BACKGROUND: The national hospital-acquired complications (HAC) system has been promoted as a method to identify health care errors that may be mitigated by clinical interventions. OBJECTIVES: To quantify the rate of HAC in multiday stay adults admitted to major hospitals. DESIGN: Retrospective observational analysis of 5-year (July 2014 – June 2019) administrative dataset abstracted from medical records. SETTING: All 47 hospitals with on-site intensive care units (ICUs) in the State of Victoria. PARTICIPANTS: All adults (aged ≥ 18 years) stratified into planned or unplanned, surgical or medical, ICU or other ward, and by hospital peer group (tertiary referral, metropolitan, regional). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: HAC rates in ICU compared with ward, and mixed-effects regression estimates of the association between HAC and i) risk of clinical deterioration, and ii) admission hospital site (intraclass correlation coefficient [ICC] > 0.3). RESULTS: 211 120 adult ICU separations with mean hospital mortality of 7.3% (95% CI, 7.2–7.4%) reported 110 132 (42.6%) HAC events (commonly, delirium, infection, arrhythmia and respiratory failure) in 62 945 records (29.8%). Higher HAC rates were reported in elective (cardiac [50.3%] and non-cardiac [40.6%]) surgical subgroups compared with emergency medical subgroup (23.9%), and in tertiary (35.4%) compared with non-tertiary (22.7%) hospitals. HAC was strongly associated with on-admission patient characteristics (P < 0.001), but was weakly associated with hospital site (ICC, 0.08; 95% CI, 0.05–0.11). CONCLUSIONS: Critically ill patients have a high burden of HAC events, which appear to be associated with patient admission characteristics. HAC may an indicator of hospital admission complexity rather than hospital-acquired complications.

Abstract:
Objective: To compare general surgery outcomes at flagship systems, flagship hospitals, and flagship hospital affiliates versus matched controls. Summary Background Data: It is unknown whether flagship hospitals perform better than flagship hospital affiliates for surgical patients. Methods: Using Medicare claims for 2018 to 2019, we matched patients undergoing inpatient general surgery in flagship system hospitals to controls who underwent the same procedure at hospitals outside the system but within the same region. We defined a “flagship hospital” within each region as the major teaching hospital with the highest patient volume that is also part of a hospital system; its system was labeled a “flagship system.” We performed 4 main comparisons: patients treated at any flagship system hospital versus hospitals outside the flagship system; flagship hospitals versus hospitals outside the flagship system; flagship hospital affiliates versus hospitals outside the flagship system; and flagship hospitals versus affiliate hospitals. Our primary outcome was 30-day mortality. Results: We formed 32,228 closely matched pairs across 35 regions. Patients at flagship system hospitals (32,228 pairs) had lower 30-day mortality than matched control patients [3.79% vs. 4.36%, difference=−0.57% (−0.86%, −0.28%), P<0.001]. Similarly, patients at flagship hospitals (15,571/32,228 pairs) had lower mortality than control patients. However, patients at flagship hospital affiliates (16,657/32,228 pairs) had similar mortality to matched controls. Flagship hospitals had lower mortality than affiliate hospitals [difference-in-differences=−1.05% (−1.62%, −0.47%), P<0.001]. Conclusions: Patients treated at flagship hospitals had significantly lower mortality rates than those treated at flagship hospital affiliates. Hence, flagship system affiliation does not alone imply better surgical outcomes.

Abstract:
The choice of referral hospital from Hospital of Subulussalam City based on a preliminary survey is varies. Inpatients are referred to Class A hospitals are on average 65%, Class B hospitals are 30%, and Class C hospitals are 5%, while outpatients are referred to Class A hospitals are on average 49%, Class B hospitals are 28%, class C hospitals are 23%. This type of research is qualitative with a phenomenological approach obtained by conducting in-depth interviews with 13 informants consisting of 3 specialist doctors, 3 general practitioners, 3 patients, 3 patient's family and 1 BPJS verifier in Hospital of Subulussalam City. The study was conducted from February to October 2018. The results showed that during the referral hospital decision-making process there was an interaction between the doctor, the patient and the patient's family, the final decision was on the patient and bearing down the consequences if the hospital's choice was not recommended by the doctor. The determinants of decision making for referral hospitals consist of perceived quality in the form of referral hospitals accepting patients referred from Hospital of Subulussalam City, emergency conditions for patients by choosing the closest hospital, facilities in the form of supporting tests and complete medical devices and additional facilities, the availability of specialist doctors and subspecialty according to the patient's condition, geographical constraints due to the long distance to the referral hospital, references from doctors to patients and vice versa, learning in the form of doctor and patient experience in the previous referral process, not all doctors consider peer relations to be a determinant of choosing a referral hospital due to the BPJS system, social factors in the form of a family in the area of ​​a referral hospital, the same religion and culture as a patient in a referral hospital area make the patient feel comfortable. Suggestions in this study is the management of Hospital of Subulussalam City to confirm and coordinate the referral hospital and make a referral MOU.

Abstract:
The use of the term client, rather than patient, has become frequent in psychiatric hospitals. There is little evidence to justify this change, so this study surveyed the views of the in-patients in a community based psychiatric hospital to establish the term they prefer. It concludes that a dear majority of people admitted to a psychiatric hospital think of themselves as patients, not clients.

Abstract:
The role of private hospitals is increasingly important in Vietnam. The study aims to determine associations between service quality and hospital brand image with satisfaction and patient loyalty, revisit intention at private hospitals in Vietnam. Quantitative cross-sectional data were collected from 268 patients in DaNang city, Vietnam. Scales to measure hospital service quality, hospital brand image, patient satisfaction, loyalty, and patient revisit intention were developed. The methods used to test the hypotheses of the study include exploratory factor analysis (EFA), confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), and structural equation modeling (SEM). One notable finding in this study provides practical evidence on the relationship of hospital service quality and hospital brand image with patient satisfaction and loyalty. In addition, service quality has a direct influence on patient satisfaction and revisit intention as the indicator of patient loyalty. Meanwhile, hospital brand image has a direct influence on patient loyalty, although it did not influence patient satisfaction. Results of this study help providing the basis for the marketing and customer care programs of private hospitals in DaNang city, Vietnam.

Abstract:
Spiritual dimensions are an important focus for nursing care and nurses can be catalysts for spiritual care. The purpose of this descriptive comparative analysis is to examine the spiritual care needs as perceived by terminally ill clients, non-terminally ill clients, and well adults. The theoretical framework for this study is Leininger's "Cultural Care Theory" that supports the notion that spiritual care needs to be culturally congruent.Participants were obtained from a 225-bed hospital, hospice, home care, and a wellness program in a midwestern city. Permission was obtained from the hospital President, Vice President of Nursing, the directors of Hospice and Home Care, and the community's Wellness Program. The number of participants was 76. The process for the protection of human rights was followed.Findings were that terminally ill, non-terminally ill, and well-adults all agree that receiving spiritual care that is congruent with beliefs is important. The terminally ill clients rated spiritual needs higher than both non-terminally ill and well-adults. All groups rated the same in the persons from whom it was wished to receive spiritual care. Common themes of spiritual care desired from these persons for the terminally ill group was: pray for/with me and talk to me. For the non-terminally ill group it was: give me information, The understanding, and provide emotional and spiritual support. Finally, for the well-adults it was: listen to me, talk to me, be confident, and support me.No statistical difference between groups (.940) on the SPS. On the SPC, the terminally ill group was more satisfied (5.20) with spiritual support they were receiving than the non-terminally ill group or well-adults.It was concluded that regardless of the stage of illness, the same spiritual needs are prominent, all individuals have spiritual needs, and several types of interventions are preferred. It has been demonstrated in this study that prayer is the most sought after component of spiritual care among all three groups. Second to that would be someone to talk to and someone to listen to them.Implications call for nurses to facilitate spiritual care from family, friends, minister or priest, and hospital chaplain. This could be written into the plan of care by having the client describe the type of spiritual care they want to receive. Nursing Administration needs to work with nursing staff to define spirituality and religion and what they mean to the nurse.

Abstract:
AbstractFreebody explores how a patient’s class, gender, age, physical health and mental condition influenced the allocation of occupation in French and English institutions. Class was an important consideration since manual labour was considered unsuitable for the middle classes, particularly for women, despite its alleged benefits as a therapy. Whether a patient’s condition was perceived as curable or incurable made a difference to the type of occupation prescribed in England, and to whether it was prescribed in France. The reasons why curable patients at the acute stage of their illness were more likely to be prescribed occupational therapy in England, or unoccupied and treated biologically in France, are examined. In both countries, incurable patients, and those whose condition had deteriorated into chronicity, were allocated work around the hospital, provided they were physically fit, for the benefit of both institution and patient. Freebody compares the material conditions of English and French, rural and metropolitan institutions, that provided the context for patient work, and the varied approaches towards offering incentives to work.

Abstract:
The subject of the study was a hospital with about 700 beds and 2.000 employees, where more than 30.000 patients are treated annually. More than half of the employees are employed in the field of nursing. The hospital has recently faced a shortage of nursing staff, resulting from both increased needs and the departure of employees due to unfavorable working conditions. The hospital is trying to deal with this problem from time, employee, and patient perspectives. We have analyzed the structure of time spent at work and care for employees' health while not forgetting about the patient's well-being, dignity, and safety. We focused on transporting patients for diagnostic tests to the diagnostic rooms. We found that the greatest potential lies in improving the software support to the entire internal transport process.

Abstract:
The clinical diagnosis of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is unreliable. Impedance plethysmography (IPG) has become accepted as a highly reliable non-invasive method for DVT detection in symptomatic patients.It has a high sensitivity (95%) and specificity (96%) for proximal vein thrombosis. Studies with impedance plethysmography have however always been carried out in academic hospitals. To evaluate the safety and efficacy of serial impedance plethysmography alone in an urban hospital setting, a prospective study was done in an urban hospital, involving 234 consecutive outpatients with clinically suspected venous thrombosis. IPG was performed on days 1, 2 and 7. If all tesis remained normal the patient was not treated with oral anticoagulants. All patients were followed for 3 months. In 131 of the 234 patients (56%) IPG was repeatedly normal. Of these 131 patients, no patient died from venous thromboembolism during 3 months follow-up, completed in all patients, and no patient returned with signs of pulmonary embolism. One patient (0.8%) returned with objectively documented DVT after two months. In 103 of the 234 patients (44%) the IPG was abnormal. Venography confirmed the diagnosis of deep venous thrombosis in 92%.It is concluded that serial IPG is a safe and effective method to detect DVT in clinically suspected outpatients, referred to an urban hospital.

Abstract:
Hospitals are complex environments having to balance out contradictory requirements from patients and health workers. Despite evidence demonstrating the critical role of the hospital’s luminous environment in responding to occupants’ requirements and needs, and the importance of engaging with the patient experience to improve the quality of patient care, to date, no studies have articulated approaches to study conflicting occupants’ needs for lighting in context. This paper presents a semi-systematic literature review of disciplinary approaches to investigate quality lighting conditions in hospitals and subjective impressions of occupants. Research articles from the clinical, built environment, and lighting fields were selected and evaluated. The review outlined appropriate physical (i.e., photometric) and self-report (e.g., preferences) approaches for data collection in context and potential articulations between them. Mixed data collection and data analysis techniques are deemed essential to articulate lighting design strategies engaging with the requirements of hospital occupants on a 24-hour basis.

ABSTRACT Background: Indonesia is one of the countries affected by COVID-19 pandemic. In overcoming this pandemic, the government waives the service fees for COVID-19 patients. It provides an opportunity for hospitals serving COVID-19 patients to submit claims for treatment financing to the Ministry of Health. There are technical guidelines for payment; there are still frequent problems, leading to a dispute. This is also experienced by the University of Indonesia Hospital (RSUI) as one of the COVID-19 referral hospitals. This study aimed to provide an overview of the claim problem encountered and their solution. Subjects and Method: This was a descriptive study conducted at University of Indonesia Hospital from July, 2020. The theme of this study was problem in claiming payments for COVID-19 patients. Several informants were selected for this study included: hospital claim officers, medical record units, inpatient units and registration units. The data were collected by observation, in-depth interview, disputed claim data. Results: The results of the investigation found that the problem of dispute claims for COVID-19 in RSUI was dominated by the incompleteness of filling in administrative files as evidence of service practice for patients in the field, such as incomplete ventilator usage curves (7.8%), swab results (3.9%), and rapid test (6.8%) which was not listed. Conclusion: Discipline needs to be applied in the completeness of documents, and a clear flow of patient care is required to avoid incomplete records.

Abstract:
This study introduces an eXplainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) designed to predict which emergency patients require acute hospital care in pre-hospital phase and provide explanations for its reasoning. Emergency medical care is broadly divided into two stages: pre-hospital and in-hospital stages. Various information gathered during the emergency activities performed by paramedics in the pre-hospital stage and while transporting patients is crucial in describing the emergency patient’s condition. However, key pre-hospital information, important for the in-hospital medical care of emergency patients, is filtered based on the ambiguous memory of the paramedics, and is verbally shared in a condensed form via phone or radio when transmitted to the hospital. To address this issue, we have developed a model that predicts emergency patients based on pre-hospital information integrating an ensemble model and advanced XAI techniques. This proposed model not only predicts emergency situations requiring acute hospital care but also ensures the model's predictive processes remain transparent and interpretable for medical professionals, addressing the critical need for an information linkage system between the pre-hospital and in-hospital phases.

ABSTRACT Background: Inpatient health services for heart attack patients is a complex problem and the highest billing rate in hospitals. Due to the high cost of hospitalization, delay treatment cases may cause fatal health consequences. This study aimed to determine factors affecting the inpatient cost for patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction at Mayapada hos­pital, Tangerang, West Java. Subjects and Method: A cross-sectional study was conducted at Mayapada hospital, Tangerang, West Java, from July to December 2019. A sample of 31 patients diagnosed with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) was selected by total sampling. The dependent variable was total inpatient service costs counted according to the clinical pathway. The independent variables were doctor in charge presented the direct cost, age, gender, patient’s distance to hospital, payment method, and length of stay. The data were collected using medical records. The data were analyzed by multiple linear regression. Results: Inpatient service cost in STEMI patients was positively associated with the doctor direct cost (b= 0.51; p= 0.003), distance to hospital (b= 0.13; p= 0.501), and length of stay (b= 0.39; p= 0.330). Inpatient service cost in STEMI patients was negatively associated with age (b= -0.30; p= 0.107), gender (b= -0.13; p= 0.550), and payment method (b= -0.26; p= 0.214). Conclusion: Inpatient service cost in STEMI patients have a positive association with the doctor direct cost, distance to hospital, length of stay, and negative association with age, gender, and payment method.

Abstract:
Abstract Background: Current protocol for monitoring high-risk patients in psychiatric hospital calls for a staff member to enter each room every 15 minutes to visually ensure that each patient is still breathing. This protocol has been set up for fast intervention in the case of a patient’s self-inflicting harm. However, this procedure is disruptive to the patients and a burden for the care providers. Objective: Continuous and automated overnight monitoring of psychiatric patients for a complete cessation of breath, that eliminates the need for frequent in-person checks. Method: An IRB approved study conducted in a simulated lab environment, with a radar device placed in the ceiling above the bed. 14 volunteers simulated episodes of respiratory arrest. Results: The extracted radar signal not only tracks the episodes of complete breath cessation but also estimates the respiration rate with more than 92% accuracy, during normal breathing. Conclusion: Our proposed approach provides the means for care providers in psychiatric hospitals to ensure the patients can breathe without disturbing the patients’ sleep.

Abstract:
This Missing Patients Research Guide contains directions for finding out more about Indigenous patients who entered tuberculosis (TB) sanatoriums and hospitals in Manitoba and never returned home. Part One of the guide presents helpful start-up information. First it explains how to gather useful details including names, dates, and locations that will help in the search as well as how to move forward with your research. Then it outlines three useful “Research Tips”: all of the various names of TB treatment hospitals in Manitoba commonly attended by Indigenous patients; instructions for undertaking database searches using keywords; and techniques for linking information between Indian Residential Schools and hospitals. Last, a “Research Case Study” demonstrates some of the techniques and challenges you may encounter when researching Vital Statistics and Indian Residential School records by looking at the lives of three TB patients, Elie Caribou, Joseph Michel, and Albert Linklater. Part Two of the guide explains how to research the location of patient burials associated with nine hospitals where Indigenous patients were treated in Manitoba, including treatment for TB: Dynevor Indian Hospital, Clearwater Lake Indian Hospital, Brandon Indian Sanatorium, Ninette Sanatorium, St. Boniface / St. Vital Sanatorium, Fort Churchill Military Hospital, Norway House Indian Hospital, Fisher River Indian Hospital and Pine Falls Indian Hospital at Fort Alexander. Some of the general research information found in Part One is repeated under the individual hospitals and sanatoriums along with the specific information that may assist in searching for missing patients at each location. At the end of the guide, in Appendix A, you will find a checklist to help you in your research. Appendix B provides contact information for the organizations mentioned in this guide so that you can reach out by phone, email, or mail. Appendix C discusses accessing the records held by The National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation.

Abstract:
Background. Timely discharge of hospitalized patients can prevent patient harm, improve patient satisfaction and quality of life, and reduce costs. Numerous strategies have been tested to improve the efficiency and safety of patient recovery and discharge, but hospitals continue to face challenges. Purpose. This Technical Brief aimed to identify and synthesize current knowledge and emerging concepts regarding systematic strategies that hospitals and health systems can implement to reduce length of stay (LOS), with emphasis on medically complex or vulnerable patients at high risk for prolonged LOS due to clinical, social, or economic barriers to timely discharge. Methods. We conducted a structured search for published and unpublished studies and conducted interviews with Key Informants representing vulnerable patients, hospitals, health systems, and clinicians. The interviews provided guidance on our research protocol, search strategy, and analysis. Due to the large and diverse evidence base, we limited our evaluation to systematic reviews of interventions to decrease hospital LOS for patients at potentially higher risk for delayed discharge; primary research studies were not included, and searches were restricted to reviews published since 2010. We cataloged the characteristics of relevant interventions and assessed evidence of their effectiveness. Findings. Our searches yielded 4,364 potential studies. After screening, we included 19 systematic reviews reported in 20 articles. The reviews described eight strategies for reducing LOS: discharge planning; geriatric assessment or consultation; medication management; clinical pathways; inter- or multidisciplinary care; case management; hospitalist services; and telehealth. All reviews included adult patients, and two reviews also included children. Interventions were frequently designed for older (often frail) patients or patients with chronic illness. One review included pregnant women at high risk for premature delivery. No reviews focused on factors linking patient vulnerability with social determinants of health. The reviews reported few details about hospital setting, context, or resources associated with the interventions studied. Evidence for effectiveness of interventions was generally not robust and often inconsistent—for example, we identified six reviews of discharge planning; three found no effect on LOS, two found LOS decreased, and one reported an increase. Many reviews also reported patient readmission rates and mortality but with similarly inconsistent results. Conclusions. A broad range of strategies have been employed to reduce LOS, but rigorous systematic reviews have not consistently demonstrated effectiveness within medically complex, high-risk, and vulnerable populations. Health system leaders, researchers, and policymakers must collaborate to address these needs.

Abstract:
Many countries have introduced new nurse staffing models in hospitals to respond to changing patient care needs and shortages of qualified nursing staff. These new models include changes in the mix of skills, qualifications or staffing levels within the hospital workforce, and changes in nursing shifts or work patterns. Nurse staffing might be associated with the quality of care that patients receive and with patient outcomes.

Abstract:
Population aging and the growing burden of chronic disease are causing many countries to explore new options as they reorganize their health systems from acute care toward increased chronic care provision. There are several modalities to deliver recuperative intermediate care at a level between the hospital and primary care, but some patients will require a bed-based solution. For these individuals, inpatient non-acute facilities may provide superior outcomes at a lower cost than traditional care on a hospital ward. The international literature regarding this type of service reveals positive findings on provider and patient satisfaction, clinical outcomes, and cost-effectiveness. However, to achieve the best possible results, providers must establish and apply appropriate procedures for the identification of eligible patients, exercise rigorous protocols during their transfer, and ensure their comprehensive assessment and adhesion to a therapeutic plan managed by a multidisciplinary team. For developing countries considering the formulation of policies to promote the implementation of intermediate care facilities, Brazil's recent experience may offer a point of reference and some guidance, especially in terms of reconditioning small community hospitals with excess capacity for this purpose.

Abstract:
Discharge planning is the development of an individualised plan for patients prior to leaving hospital. Discharge planning should ensure that patients are discharged from hospital at an appropriate point in their care and that, with adequate notice, the provision of other services is adequately organised. Discharge planning is a frequent feature of health systems in many countries and is aimed to improve patient outcomes and contain costs.

Abstract:
We describe the completeness of prenatal data in maternal delivery records and the prevalence of selected medical conditions and complications among patients delivering at community hospitals around Atlanta, Georgia. Medical charts for 199 maternal-infant dyads (99 infants in normal newborn nurseries and 104 infants in newborn intensive care nurseries) were identified by medical records staff at 9 hospitals and abstracted on site. Ninety-eight percent of hospital charts included prenatal records, but over 20 percent were missing results for common laboratory tests and prenatal procedures. Forty-nine percent of women had a pre-existing medical condition, 64 percent had a prenatal complication, and 63 percent had a labor or delivery complication. Missing prenatal information limits the usefulness of these records for research and may result in unnecessary tests or procedures or inappropriate medical care.
