Abstract:

The Great Western Hospital was opened in 2002. It was built as a PFI hospital, moving services from the old Princess Margaret Hospital situated in central Swindon. The Great Western Hospital is conveniently situated near junction 15 of the M4 and therefore has excellent transport links. The Acute Medical Unit (AMU) was purpose built adjacent to the Emergency Department and in close proximity to Emergency Department Radiology. Details of the Acute Medical Unit layout are summarised in Table 2.

Abstract:

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the popularity of formulary systems in all Hong Kong hospitals and to compare these with the newly introduced formulary system in a major government hospital, the Princess Margaret Hospital (PMH), as the baseline. DESIGN: Questionnaire and selected interviews by pharmacy students. SETTING: All hospital pharmacies in Hong Kong. PARTICIPANTS: Department managers (directors of pharmacy services) of hospital pharmacies. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE: The popularity of the hospitals' formulary systems and their formulary decision-making strategies. Calculations of cost savings of the new formulary system in PMH and a comparison of the PMH system with the US standards were also made. RESULTS: Among 38 responding hospitals, 35 (92%) had a formulary handbook and 21 (55.3%) claimed to have a formulary system. The evaluation processes and formulary decision-making procedures were found to be inadequate because basic components in drug evaluation (e.g., standardized criteria for drug evaluation) were not used regularly. However, the formulary system in PMH was found to be comparable with the US standards. Substantial cost savings were made through rejection of less cost-effective drugs by the Formulary Subcommittee in PMH. CONCLUSIONS: In general, comprehensive formulary systems are still not popular in Hong Kong. This may be due to insufficient staffing and lack of administrative and physicians' support. The new formulary system in PMH can be used as a model to develop a successful formulary system in which hospital pharmacists can prove their expertise for the benefit of both hospitals and patients in Hong Kong.

Abstract:

AbstractWe studied the introduction rate after a negative challenge to mixed tree nut biscuit. This is a retrospective review of patients who underwent and passed mixed tree nut biscuit challenges performed at Princess Margaret Hospital (PMH) between 2016 and 2018. Follow-up phone calls were made to families to ascertain if the tree nuts included in the tree nut biscuit were still included in the child’s diet 1 to 3 years following negative oral food challenge (OFC). A total of 162 children underwent mixed tree nut biscuit challenge between 2016 and 2018 at Princess Margaret Hospital, Perth, Western Australia. A total of 141 (87%) passed mixed tree nut biscuit challenge. Of the 133 children that were contacted (8 children could not be contacted), 104 children still included some or all of the challenge nuts in the child’s diet; with 24 children completely eliminating the challenge nuts (18%), 5 children eliminated some of the challenge nuts (3.5%). We found a high introduction rate (82%); however, some families may require more support to maintain the tree nuts in the child’s diet following a negative OFC.

Abstract:

The purpose of this study was to use descriptive methodology to study the management of patients with pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP) at the Princess Margaret Hospital. This is a case series of patients with a diagnosis of PMP treated between January 1, 1995 and December 31, 2001. A health record search using the morphology code for PMP was done and identified 70 patients. Additionally, an unrestricted Medline search was conducted between 1990 and 2002 for PMP. Eight cases of PMP were treated by the Gynecologic Oncology service at Princess Margaret Hospital during the study period. The patients ranged in age from 43 to 84 and presented with a pelvic mass and/or increasing abdominal girth. All but two patients underwent appendectomy as part of their surgery. Postoperative management was by gynecologic oncology for seven of eight patients. An appendiceal origin was confirmed for six patients and highly suspicious for one patient. The remaining patient underwent appendectomy, but it was not sufficiently sectioned for diagnosis. Chemotherapy was given to patients in a non-uniform fashion. Removal of mucinous tumors of the ovary should include appendectomy. Consultation from a general surgical oncologist should be sought where appendiceal origin is confirmed. Coding errors may occur in medical records at a frequency greater than is anticipated.

Abstract:

in 1997 the teleradiology facilities at princess margaret hospital swindon were upgraded to a modern dicom compliant system. we describe the practicalities rather than the technical issues of setting up and running a teleradiology system that can send images to the radiologists' homes on call obviating the need for them in many cases to attend the hospital. we list the initial doubts and concerns voiced by both radiologists and radiographers and describe the means of overcoming the problems that arose. from these reflections we have obtained a deeper insight into the use of teleradiology in a district general hospital (dgh) setting. our conclusions are described.

Abstract:

AbstractPart two of this two-part series presents the results of a departmental initiative implemented in 2003 at a large urban cancer centre, Princess Margaret Hospital (PMH) in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. This new model for radiation therapists was called Advanced Integrated Practice (AIP) and was developed, in part, to encourage and promote scholarship within radiation therapy. The AIP model incorporated integrated clinical specialty roles designed to blend exemplary clinical practice with focused academic activities. This paper discusses an evaluation of the AIP model undertaken to obtain a formal measure of how the model had evolved, how the radiation therapists and other stakeholders were responding to the new model, whether the initial outcomes were realized and to create plans for further development of the design. The evaluation utilized a mixture of traditional qualitative research methodologies such as focus groups, quantitative surveys and a variety of other available measurable outcomes. Outcomes from the model included increased opportunities for diverse roles that incorporated an element of academic practice and augmented career choice and scope for radiation therapists. In addition, academic output and research work also increased within the department. Lessons learned from the implementation and evaluation of the model are shared, and the authors offer some suggestions to increase scholarly activity within the profession.

Abstract:

4093 Background: NET are uncommon malignancies with variable natural history and often indolent biological behavior. Over the past decade novel treatment approaches have been developed. There have been few recent descriptions of large institutional experiences with multi-modality therapy for this disease. Methods: The Princess Margaret Hospital cancer registry identified 207 patients (pts) with NET of the gastrointestinal tract or unknown primary who had their initial visits between 1992 and 2002. A retrospective chart review was performed. Results: The median follow-up duration was 25 months for pts who have died and 54 months for those alive at last follow-up. Demographics of the entire cohort of 207 pts were as follows: M:F = 53%:47%; mean age = 55 years; age-adjusted Charlson score 0 = 71%. Anatomical distribution of the primary location revealed that 33% were from the foregut, 37% from midgut, 13% from hindgut and 17% from unknown origin. Pathological distribution demonstrated that 73% were NET/carcinoids, 21% were islet cell tumors and 6% were small cell carcinomas. One-third of the cohort had biochemically and/or clinically functional tumors, 24% were non-functional, and 43% were not biochemically tested and were clinically non-functional. At presentation, 61% of pts had distant metastases and 39% had locoregional disease. Curative surgery was performed in 38% of the cohort, whereas radiotherapy and chemotherapy of any intent were delivered to 15% and 34% respectively. Octreotide LAR was part of the therapeutic regime in 13% of pts. Two-year survival analysis was evaluated among 114 pts, with the remaining cohort being excluded due to either insufficient follow-up or because pts were seen for second-opinion only. Factors that were significantly related to decreased survival in univariate analyses were the presence of distant metastases and small cell histology. All pts who underwent curative surgery in this subgroup were alive at 2 years, and 88% were alive at 5 years. Conclusions: Pts with NET who are offered curative surgery have a good outcome. Distant metastases are commonly found at presentation and portend a worse prognosis. These patients should be evaluated by a multidisciplinary team regarding new approaches to surgery and other therapies. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract:

Aim To investigate trends in the rate of antenatal detection of cleft lip and palate (CLP) patients referred to the CLP Unit at Princess Margaret Hospital for Children in Perth, Western Australia during the period 2003-2012 and compare data with a previously published report covering the years 1996-2003. Methods This is a single-center, retrospective survey of antenatal transabdominal ultrasound screenings of mothers of infants born between July 1, 2003 and June 30, 2012 that were referred to the CLP Unit at Princess Margaret Hospital. Results Detection rates of oral clefts increased significantly when compared with outcomes reported in the same population between 1996 and 2003 ( P < .05). An overall detection rate of 71.7% (165/230) was achieved for clefts involving lip and palate. Detection of isolated cleft palate (1/99) and microform (0/8) remained elusive. Most detections (76.5%) were achieved at 15 to 20 weeks of gestational age, corresponding with routine anatomical screening. A further 16.8% were detected post-20 weeks of gestation. Scans were performed by specialist obstetricians, and sonography clinics reported a detection rate of 84.6% (55/65), whereas nonspecialist clinics reported a detection rate of only 67.1% (110/164). Conclusion The antenatal detection rates of oral clefts involving the lip have improved to the extent that the majority of mothers are now being referred to a cleft unit in Western Australia prior to the births of their children. As a result of this improvement, antenatal counseling is now a common facet of cleft management.
