Predicting Adverse Outcomes in Older Adults with 72-Hour Emergency Department Returns
Older patients are heavy users of emergency department (ED) resources and are at high risk for short-term ED visits, often leading to adverse outcomes. We aim to elucidate the characteristics of older patients who undergo 72-h ED returns, and develop a prediction model for unfavorable outcomes to facilitate clinical practices. This retrospective observational study enrolled older patients who shortly returned to the ED of a tertiary hospital with…
The Impact of Integrated Home-Based Primary Care on Continuity and Outcomes of Care Among the Community Homebound Older Adults in Taiwan
OBJECTIVES: The homebound older adults are often at risk of poor care outcomes due to disability and limited access to health care. Home health care services have been developed to improve various outcomes of care. Since the initiation of the integrated home-based primary care (iHBPC) program in Taiwan, this study aimed to evaluate the effect of the iHBPC program on continuity and outcomes of care among the homebound older adults. METHODS: Electr…
Do Hospital and Physician Volume Thresholds for the Volume-Outcome Relationship in Heart Failure Exist
BACKGROUND: Although volume-outcome relationships have been explored for various procedures and interventions, limited information is available concerning the effect of hospital and physician volume on heart failure mortality. Most importantly, little is known about whether there are optimal hospital and physician volume thresholds to reduce heart failure mortality. OBJECTIVES: We used nationwide population-based data to identify the optimal hosp…
Can Hospital Competition Really Affect Hospital Behavior or Not? An Empirical Study of Different Competition Measures Comparison in Taiwan
Different approaches to measure the hospital competition index might lead to inconsistent results of the effects of hospital competition on innovation adoption. The purpose of this study is to adopt a different approach to define market area and measure the level of competition to examine whether hospital competition has a positive effect on hospital behavior, taking quality indicator projects participation as an example. A total of 238 hospitals…
The Relationships Among Physician and Hospital Volume, Processes, and Outcomes of Care for Acute Myocardial Infarction
BACKGROUND: A volume-outcome relationship has been found for acute myocardial infarction (AMI); however, the mechanisms underlying the relationship remain unclear. In particular, it is not known whether processes of care are mediators of the volume-outcome relationship, that is, whether the mechanisms underlying the relationship are through processes of care. OBJECTIVE: We used nationwide population-based data to examine the mediating effects of …
Impact of Cuts in Reimbursement on Outcome of Acute Myocardial Infarction and Use of Percutaneous Coronary Intervention
BACKGROUND: The impact of cuts in reimbursement, such as the Balanced Budget Act in the United States or global budgeting, on the quality of patient care is an important issue in health-care reform. Limited information is available regarding whether reimbursement cuts are associated with processes and outcomes of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) care. OBJECTIVES: We used nationwide longitudinal population-based data to examine how 30-day mortali…
Associations of Physician Volume and Weekend Admissions With Ischemic Stroke Outcome in Taiwan
BACKGROUND: Although volume-outcome and weekend-outcome relationships have been explored for various procedures and interventions, limited information is available concerning "physician volume" and the "weekend effect" on stroke mortality. Moreover, little is known about the relative and combined influence of physician and hospital volume on stroke mortality. OBJECTIVES: We used nationwide population-based data to explore the influences of physic…
Impact of a cultural belief about ghost month on delivery mode in Taiwan
Background: Many Chinese believe the lunar month of July, “ghost month” is inauspicious for major surgical procedures. This study hypothesised that caesaren delivery (CS) rates will be significantly lower during lunar July, and higher than normal during June, representing pre-emptive caesaren delivery to avoid delivering in July. Methods: Population based data from Taiwan on all singleton deliveries during 1997–2003 (1 750 862 cases) were subject…
