A lax functor from a bicategory of very general nondeterministic concurrent strategies on concurrent games to the bicategory of profunctors is presented. The lax functor provides a fundamental connection between two approaches to generalizations of domain theory to forms of intensional domain theories, one based on game and strategies, and the other on presheaf categories and profunctors. The l...

We performed a retrospective chart review for 149 randomly selected well-child encounters to evaluate the frequency with which clinicians plot growth measurements and document growth abnormalities during health maintenance visits. Providers failed to plot at least one measurement of height, weight, and/or head circumference in 31 of 149 encounters (21%, 95% CI = 14.5% to 27.5%). Growth abnormal...

Of 1796 patient encounters identified, 81.2% (n = 1463) were completed by a PS resident. The remainder were either not seen in person (e.g., telephone encounter) or seen with PRS attending; these were not included in this analysis. All encounters were indirectly supervised as defined by the ACGME and PS Residency Review Committees. The E&M codes from these encounters generated 5,231.3 wRVUs. 40...

When patients visit primary-care physicians, they frequently have more than one concern. Patients' first concerns are solicited by physicians at the beginnings of encounters. A challenge to health care is how to get patients' additional concerns raised as topics of discussion. If patients' additional concerns are addressed, it tends to occur at the end of encounters. Using the methodology of co...
