  • Diagnostic Errors, Health Disparities, and Artificial Intelligence

    Open AccessSaid A Ibrahim, Peter J PronovostARTICLEJAMA Health Forum2021

    In health care, diagnostic errors remain a substantial source of morbidity, mortality, and costs. The National Academy of Medicine recognizes diagnostic errors, defined as "the failure to establish an accurate and timely explanation of a patient's health problem(s) or to communicate that explanation to the patient," 1 as a major health care issue. Diagnostic errors include delayed diagnoses, wrong diagnoses, and missed diagnoses. Despite the pers…

  • The role of South-North partnerships in promoting shared learning and knowledge transfer

    Open AccessLopa Basu, Peter Pronovost et al.ARTICLEGlobalization and Health2017

    While it is clear that hospitals in developing countries need to improve quality of health services and improve patient safety, hospitals in high resource countries need to do the same. Most often the focus on improvement through institutional health partnerships involves hospital teams from high resource settings attempting to aid and teach hospital staff in low resource settings, particularly in Africa. However these efforts to provide assistan…

  • Can Economic Model Transparency Improve Provider Interpretation of Cost-effectiveness Analysis? Evaluating Tradeoffs Presented by the Second Panel on Cost-effectiveness in Health and Medicine

    William V Padula, R Brett McQueen et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2017Referencias: 7

    The Second Panel on Cost-Effectiveness in Health and Medicine convened on December 7, 2016 at the National Academy of Medicine to disseminate their recommendations for conduct, methodological practices, and reporting of cost-effectiveness analyses (CEAs). Following its summary, panel proceedings included lengthy discussions including the field’s struggle to disseminate findings efficiently through peer-reviewed literature to target audiences. Wit…

  • Finding Resolution for the Responsible Transparency of Economic Models in Health and Medicine

    William V Padula, R Brett McQueen et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2017Referencias: 12

    The Second Panel on Cost-Effectiveness in Health and Medicine recommendations for conduct, methodological practices, and reporting of cost-effectiveness analyses has a number of questions unanswered with respect to the implementation of transparent, open source code interface for economic models. The possibility of making economic model source code could be positive and progressive for the field; however, several unintended consequences of this s…

  • Validity of the Agency for Health Care Research and Quality Patient Safety Indicators and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Hospital-acquired Conditions

    Bradford D Winters, Aamir Bharmal et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2016Referencias: 27

    BACKGROUND: The Agency for Health Care Research and Quality Patient Safety Indicators (PSIs) and Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services Hospital-acquired Conditions (HACs) are increasingly being used for pay-for-performance and public reporting despite concerns over their validity. Given the potential for these measures to misinform patients, misclassify hospitals, and misapply financial and reputational harm to hospitals, these need to be ri…

  • Are Evidence-based Practices Associated With Effective Prevention of Hospital-acquired Pressure Ulcers in US Academic Medical Centers

    William V Padula, Robert D Gibbons et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2016Referencias: 16

    BACKGROUND: In 2008, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) established nonpayment policies resulting from costliness of hospital-acquired pressure ulcers (HAPUs) to hospitals. This prompted hospitals to adopt quality improvement (QI) interventions that increase use of evidence-based practices (EBPs) for HAPU prevention. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the longitudinal impact of CMS policy and QI adoption on HAPU rates. MATERIALS AND METHODS…

  • The Views of Quality Improvement Professionals and Comparative Effectiveness Researchers on Ethics, IRBs, and Oversight

    Open AccessDanielle Whicher, Norman Ka et al.ARTICLEJournal of Empirical Research on…2015

    Recently, there have been increasing numbers of activities labeled as either quality improvement (QI) or comparative effectiveness research (CER), both of which are designed to learn what works and what does not in routine clinical care settings. These activities can create confusion for researchers, Institutional Review Board members, and other stakeholders as they try to determine which activities or components of activities constitute clinical…

  • Eliminating Health Care Disparities With Mandatory Clinical Decision Support

    Brandyn D Lau, Brandyn Lau et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2015Referencias: 36

    BACKGROUND: All hospitalized patients should be assessed for venous thromboembolism (VTE) risk factors and prescribed appropriate prophylaxis. To improve best-practice VTE prophylaxis prescription for all hospitalized patients, we implemented a mandatory computerized clinical decision support (CCDS) tool. The tool requires completion of checklists to evaluate VTE risk factors and contraindications to pharmacological prophylaxis, and then recommen…

  • Promising Practices for Achieving Patient-centered Hospital Care

    Hanan J Aboumatar, Hanan Aboumatar et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2015Referencias: 25

    BACKGROUND: Patient-centered care is integral to health care quality, yet little is known regarding how to achieve patient-centeredness in the hospital setting. The Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (HCAHPS) survey measures patients' reports on clinician behaviors deemed by patients as key to a high-quality hospitalization experience. OBJECTIVES: We conducted a national study of hospitals that achieved the highest p…

  • An Ethics Framework for a Learning Health Care System

    Open AccessRuth Faden, Ruth R Faden et al.ARTICLEThe Hastings Center Report2013

    Calls are increasing for American health care to be organized as a learning health care system, defined by the Institute of Medicine as a health care system “in which knowledge generation is so embedded into the core of the practice of medicine that it is a natural outgrowth and product of the healthcare delivery process and leads to continual improvement in care.” We applaud this conception, and in this paper, we put forward a new ethics framewo…

  • The Research‐Treatment Distinction

    Open AccessNorman Ka, Nancy E Kass et al.ARTICLEThe Hastings Center Report2013

    The rise of quality improvement research and comparative effectiveness research in health care settings constitutes progress toward the goal of what the Institute of Medicine has called a “learning healthcare system,” in which we are “drawing research closer to clinical practice by building knowledge development and application into each stage of the healthcare delivery process.” As clinical research and clinical practice move closer to a deliber…

  • A Phased Cluster-randomized Trial of Rural Hospitals Testing a Quality Collaborative to Improve Heart Failure Care

  • Are Critical Pathways Effective for Reducing Postoperative Length of Stay

    Sydney M Dy, Pushkal P Garg et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2003Referencias: 14

    BACKGROUND: Many hospitals use critical pathways to attempt to reduce postoperative length of stay (PLOS) for diverse conditions and procedures. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate whether critical pathways were associated with reductions in postoperative PLOS after accounting for prepathway trends in PLOS. RESEARCH DESIGN: Retrospective cohort study, from 1988 to 1998. SETTING: Academic medical center department of surgery. SUBJECTS: A total of 10,960 admiss…
