Superficial Temporal Artery-to-Middle Cerebral Artery Bypass in Ischemic Stroke With Blood Pressure-Dependent Symptoms
The efficacy of extracranial-intracranial (EC-IC) bypass in preventing ischemic stroke progression and recurrence is controversial. As per the current hypothesis, EC-IC bypass is most beneficial for patients with persistent hemodynamic insufficiency. Hence, various approaches have been used to evaluate hemodynamic insufficiency, including repeated single photon emission CT (SPECT) imaging or continuous monitoring of cerebral flow with transcrania…
Shadow Coaching Improves Patient Experience With Care, But Gains Erode Later
BACKGROUND: Health care organizations strive to improve patient care experiences. Some use one-on-one provider counseling (shadow coaching) to identify and target modifiable provider behaviors. OBJECTIVE: We examined whether shadow coaching improves patient experience across 44 primary care practices in a large urban Federally Qualified Health Center. RESEARCH DESIGN: Seventy-four providers with "medium" (ie, slightly below average) overall provi…
Family Structure and Childhood Obesity
Differences in CAHPS Reports and Ratings of Health Care Provided to Adults and Children
BACKGROUND: Consumer assessment of health care is an important metric for evaluating quality of care. These assessments can help purchasers, health plans, and providers deliver care that fits patients' needs. OBJECTIVE: To examine differences in reports and ratings of care delivered to adults and children and whether they vary by site. RESEARCH DESIGN: This observational study compares adult and child experiences with care at a large west coast m…

However, no study has addressed whether family structure is associated with the care children receive for particular conditions or with their physical health outcomes. OBJECTIVE: To assess the effects of family structure on the treatment an…
Quantifying Income-Related Inequality in Healthcare Delivery in the United States
BACKGROUND: Numerous studies have found that high-income Americans use more medical care than their low-income counterparts, irrespective of medical "need." The methods employed in these studies, however, make it difficult to evaluate differences in the degree of income-related inequality in utilization across population subgroups. In this study, we derive a summary index to quantify income-related inequality in need-adjusted medical care expendi…
