Effect Size of Testimonials on Treatment Choice in PTSD
Excerpt: A recent study published in Workplace Health & Safety concluded, “Morbidity burden level is an indicator of work limitations in employees with diabetes and can be used to identify employees who may benefit from specialized services aimed at addressing their work limitations associated with diabetes” (Sylvia et al., 2012, p. 425). This conclusion is not warranted by the findings of the study because of limitations to both internal and ext…
Risk‐adjusted In‐hospital Death Rates for Peer Hospitals in Rural and Urban Regions
The purpose of this research project was to compare inpatient mortality rates for rural hospitals with mortality rates of urban hospitals of given sizes and ranges of service. Statistical adjustments for risk were made in the probability of death during hospitalization for 43,000 patients across 166 hospitals by age, gender, principal diagnosis, principal surgical procedure, characteristics of the secondary diagnoses, and whether or not cancer wa…
Risk Factors for Heart Disease in Rural Appalachia
The objectives of the study were to identify which risk factors for heart disease were most prevalent in a poor, underserved, rural Appalachian county. A random sample of medical records was selected (n=292) of adult men and women who participated in a countywide health care project. Data were obtained from a health risk appraisal questionnaire and other physical and demographic information and were analyzed using univariate and bivariate statist…
Effect of a transient, geographically localised economic recovery on community health and income studied with longitudinal household cohort interview method
STUDY OBJECTIVE: The main purpose of the study was to determine whether the health or economic status of a cohort of residents in an economically troubled geographical area changed between 1990 and 1993. DESIGN: Longitudinal, single cohort, interview survey method with the key variables of health status and economic status. Quasi-experimental pre-post design with economic rebound as the intervention. SETTING: A relatively low income geographical …
Relationships among health risk factors and objective physical findings in well rural Appalachian women
This pilot study sought to describe the patterns of health risk factors and objective physical findings in well rural Appalachian women. A retrospective chart review was conducted of the records of 50 women who received a health history, physical examination, and appropriate laboratory testing as part of a rural community wellness project. The most prevalent risk factors found were past or present smoking, history of lung disease, physical inacti…
Universal Precautions Compliance and Exposure Frequency to Patient Body Fluids in Nurses Employed By Urban and Rural Health Care Agencies
Previous studies have suggested that health care workers may differ with respect to universal precautions knowledge, compliance, practice setting barriers, or exposure to patient body fluids in rural and urban areas. The purpose of this study was to determine whether or not there are rural/urban differences in the degree of precaution taken by health care workers to prevent the spread of blood borne pathogens, specifically human immunodefiency vi…
