Are Critical Pathways Effective for Reducing Postoperative Length of Stay
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…
Understanding Individual and Small Area Variation in the Underuse of Coronary Angiography Following Acute Myocardial Infarction
BACKGROUND: Underuse of coronary angiography is common among patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and the magnitude of underuse varies across geographic areas. OBJECTIVES: To examine the influence of patient demographic, clinical and hospital characteristics on underuse of coronary angiography, and the contribution of these factors to variation in underuse across geographic regions. RESEARCH DESIGN: Cohort study using data from the Coo…
Impact of Underuse, Overuse, and Discretionary Use on Geographic Variation in the Use of Coronary Angiography After Acute Myocardial Infarction
BACKGROUND: Geographic variation in the use of medical procedures has been well documented. However, it is not known whether this variation is due to differences in use when procedures are indicated, discretionary, or contraindicated. OBJECTIVES: To examine whether use of coronary angiography after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) according to appropriateness criteria varied across geographic regions and whether underuse, overuse, or discretiona…
