A TEST OF THE BEHAVIORAL MODEL OF HEALTH SERVICES USE ON NONEMERGENT EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT USE Moira Crosby McManus Old Dominion University, 2016 Co-Directors: Dr. Robert J. Cramer Dr. Bonnie Van Lunen Even though emergency departments (EDs) were created to treat trauma and emergent cases, there has been an increase in emergency department (ED) utilization for non-emergent reasons over the past ...
BACKGROUND Contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) is associated with increased morbidity and mortality after percutaneous coronary interventions and is a patient safety objective of the National Quality Forum. However, no formal quality improvement program to prevent CI-AKI has been conducted. Therefore, we sought to determine whether a 6-year regional multicenter quality improvement int...
BACKGROUND Preoperative C-reactive protein (CRP) levels more than 10 mg/l have been shown to be associated with increased morbidity and mortality after cardiac surgery. We examine the value of preoperative CRP levels less than 10 mg/l for predicting long-term, all-cause mortality and hospital length of stay in surgical patients undergoing primary, nonemergent coronary artery bypass graft-only s...
A newborn lies wide-awake, about to be intubated. The infant is able to feel everything, to hear everything--but cannot do anything to change the situation. Big people hold down the newborn and place a laryngoscope blade into the mouth, then a large endotracheal tube into the trachea. As the baby struggles, coughs, chokes, gags, and cries, blood pressure and intracranial pressure increase drama...
To reduce the rate of inappropriate red blood cell transfusion, a provider education program, followed by alerts in the computerized provider order entry system (CPOE), was established to encourage AABB transfusion guidelines. Metrics were established for nonemergent inpatient transfusions. Service lines with high order volume were targeted with formal education regarding AABB 2012 transfusion ...
No ideal prognostic model has been applied to clearly identify which suitable high-risk stage II colon cancer patients with negative margins undergoing nonemergent surgery should receive adjuvant chemotherapy routinely. Clinicopathologic and prognostic data of 333 stage II colon cancer patients who underwent D2 or D3 lymphadenectomy during nonemergent surgery were retrospectively analyzed. Four...
In comprehension of the metaphor “TOPIC is VEHICLE,” emergent features in the interpretation of metaphors are characteristic neither of the topic nor the vehicle. An experiment examines the hypothesis that new features emerge as metaphoric interpretations through association with nonemergent features connected with the topic, vehicle, or both. In the experiment, participants were presented with...
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to report the morbidity of nonemergent hysterectomy for suspected placenta accreta. STUDY DESIGN This was a retrospective study of all patients who underwent nonemergent hysterectomy for placenta accreta at Tampa General Hospital from June 1, 2003 to May 31, 2009. RESULTS Twenty-nine patients were identified. Diagnosis was suspected on ultrasound scan...
Unilateral eye swelling, redness, and pain may represent a diagnostic challenge to many clinicians. The differential diagnosis is broad and includes both nonemergent and emergent diagnoses. While the emergent diagnoses must be made and treatment initiated immediately, the nonemergent differential also includes life- and vision-threatening entities. The diagnosis of idiopathic orbital inflammato...
Nonemergent forcible medication is a controversial procedure that has received somewhat less study in acute hospitals and in states where a simple in-house "treatment-driven" clinical review procedure is followed. We reviewed the charts of all patients so medicated by the New Jersey "Rennie" process on a large general acute adult psychiatric service, finding 43 (3%) of 1420 admitted patients so...
