Costs, needs, and outcomes.
There is a tendency in discussions of mental health policy and psychiatric practice to talk of the cost of a treatment, facility, or policy and to ignore variations. These variations can be considerable, which alone suggests they should not be overlooked, and they can be explored and perhaps exploited to improve the delivery of services. This article describes a theoretical framework for the ex...
متن کاملPatient education for hyperphosphatemia management: Improving outcomes while decreasing costs?
modialysis patients, behavioral changes associated with the management of hyperphosphatemia, such as the adoption of a low phosphate diet and judicious intake of phosphate binders, are probably the most complicated and challenging [1,2]. Non-adherence to low phosphate diets, which are likely the most common dietary restrictions required from this patient population, ranges between 19 and 57% [3...
متن کاملLaparoscopic Loop Ileostomy Reversal: Reducing Morbidity While Improving Functional Outcomes
INTRODUCTION Loop ileostomy reduces the morbidity associated with pelvic sepsis. However, its reversal carries a 10% to 30% complication rate. We present our technique for laparoscopic ileostomy closure. METHODS We conducted a retrospective chart review of subjects undergoing laparoscopic-assisted loop ileostomy closure between 2006 and 2009. Operating time, length of hospital stay, return o...
متن کاملImproving care and reducing costs in oncology
The costs of healthcare are a cause of concern throughout the world. This is the case for Europe, where most of the service is paid for by a state healthcare system, but also in the USA, where private insurance has a more prominent role. Several articles addressing this issue, i.e. the causes of this sharp increase and how to reduce the costs of medicine, have appeared in medical journals in re...
متن کاملProspects and limitations of post-transplantation alloantibody detection in renal transplantation.
Antibody-mediated immunity is generally accepted to be a major cause of kidney allograft injury and loss. Post-transplantation monitoring for circulating alloantibodies was proposed to represent a useful noninvasive diagnostic approach to assess individual immunologic risks and to guide the implementation of specific therapeutic measures. This was supported by the recent establishment of highly...
