Appropriate and Inappropriate Estimation Techniques
\1ode (also called \1AP\ estimation. mean esumation and median estimation are examined here to determine when they can be 'afely used to derive (posterior) cost mmimwng estimates. !These are all Bayes procedures. using the mode. mean. or median of the posterior distnbu· lion.) [t is found that modal estimation only returns cost m1mmizmg estimates when the cost function is 0L. [f the cost funcuo...
متن کاملReasonable incomplete revascularization.
Incomplete coronary artery revascularization could increase the risk of death, myocardial infarction, repeat revascularization, and lifestyle-limiting angina. Data to support this hypothesis extend back to the early 1980s, when patients with incomplete surgical revascularization had an absolute 15% reduction in 5-year survival in comparison with patients with complete revascularization.1,2 This...
متن کاملGrowth , Development , and Appropriate Versus Inappropriate Institutions ∗
In this paper, we present a simple model that offers a unified framework for the analysis of economic growth and economic development. In our model, the transformation of production relationships, a key feature of the process of economic development, goes hand-in-hand with economic growth. The main driving force of this pattern is that economic growth in relatively backward economies is associa...
متن کاملThe dueling hazards of incomplete revascularization and incomplete data.
Although the survival benefit of complete revascularization after bypass surgery is well documented, the importance of opening all stenotic or occluded vessels during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is less certain. On the contrary, much data support targeting only the culprit vessel during PCI. A strategy of “ischemic-driven revascularization” is often the standard of care. Through a ...
متن کاملMissing grafts and the potential for inappropriate revascularization.
The best outcome for coronary intervention in coronary artery bypass graft patients requires knowledge of prior coronary anatomy. This information is not always available as many cases present acutely, especially in ST-elevation myocardial infarction. We present three cases in which bypass grafts were documented as occluded but follow-up angiograms for other reasons revealed that the grafts wer...
