Artificial Intelligence algorithms cannot recommend a best interests decision but could help by improving prognostication
Most jurisdictions require a patient to consent to any medical intervention. Clinicians ask a patient, ‘Given the pain and distress associated with our intervention and the predicted likelihood of this best-case outcome, do you want to accept the treatment?’ When a patient is incapable of deciding, clinicians may ask people who know the patient to say what the patient would decide; this is substituted judgement. In contrast, asking the same peopl…
The biopsychosocial model of illness
The biopsychosocial model outlined in Engel’s classic Science paper four decades ago emerged from dissatisfaction with the biomedical model of illness, which remains the dominant healthcare model. Engel’s call to arms for a biopsychosocial model has been taken up in several healthcare fields, but it has not been accepted in the more economically dominant and politically powerful acute medical and surgical domains. It is widely used in research in…
The Barthel ADL Index
The Barthel Index is a valid measure of disability. In this study we investigated the reliability of four different methods of obtaining the score in 25 patients: self-report, asking a trained nurse who had worked with the patient for at least one shift, and separate testing by two skilled observers within 72 hours of admission. Analysis of total (summed) scores revealed a close correlation between all four methods: a difference of 4/20 points wa…
Services for stroke patients one year after stroke
The use of community services by stroke patients was investigated one year after their stroke. Survivors from a register of all patients from a defined community were followed up one year after their stroke. Four hundred and thirty six of the 492 survivors were seen: 301 lived at home with someone, 82 lived at home alone, and 53 were in long-stay care. One hundred and forty seven (38%) of those at home were visited by one or more community servic…
Hospital admission for acute stroke
Data from 976 patients registered in a community survey as suffering an acute stroke have been analysed to discover what factors are associated with admission to hospital, how long patients spend in hospital, and whether there are any specific benefits attributable to hospital admission. Six hundred and twenty-five patients were admitted on account of their index stroke. These patients were compared with the 249 who remained at home throughout th…
