Filter by:Background: Information overload is a common problem in intensive care units. A display tool that facilitates retrieval of crucial clinical information from electronic medical records has excellent potential to attenuate information overload and benefit workflow. Study hypothesis: In this project, we aimed to evaluate the efficacy and clinical satisfaction of a team-designed, patient-centered electronic medical record viewer, i-Dashboard, to facilitate multi-disciplinary rounds in our surgical intensive care units.
NYU Langone Health outreaches to patients to remind them to schedule their appointments by phone or MyChart message.The proposed study will test different outreach methods using a predictive risk model. The goal is to increase gap closure rate by the end of the year.
In this evaluation, two versions of emails will be sent to Geisinger employees who have not been vaccinated against COVID-19. A delayed-contact control group will be emailed after a delay of at least two days. The researchers hypothesize that either of the emails - which use content informed by behavioral nudge theory - will lead to more COVID-19 vaccinations than the delayed-contact control group.
As the number of operation increases, it is important to control of the utilization rate of the operating room. This study is a comparative study of the benefits of different ways of contacting patients' family members during surgery.

As a result of the pandemic, hygiene and distancing rules must be followed in Health care/ rehabilitation clinics to ensure the safety of patients and staff. This has led to extensive changes in the therapy processes, including a reduction in group sizes and maintaining distances within the groups, resulting in a reduction in the range of therapies available to individuals, since the number of employees remains unchanged and cannot be increased at will and in the short term due to the lack of qualified staff. In order for the treatment/rehabilitation goals to be achieved nonetheless, new forms of implementation of therapy programs must be developed in addition to organizational adjustments. Digitalization can be a significant support in this respect. The majority of patients in psychosomatic rehabilitation possess smartphones, meaning that the necessary infrastructure for the utilization of digital offers is available and can be used to the greatest possible extent. The use of digital measures within the therapeutic services supports the independence of the patients, as they can use the digital offers independently and flexibly in their own time. How should Health care/rehabilitation services be designed in light of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic and which services have the potential to buffer future crises: What general recommendations can be derived for the design of such services for routine care? What are support measures to encourage social participation and return to work?
The aim of this study is to test the effectiveness of a single training session in communication skills at improving patients' perceptions of physiotherapy consultations.
The purpose of this study is to pilot test an innovative, guided participation (GP) intervention to help parents develop competencies in communication for parenting an infant with a complex congenital heart defect (CCHD) through the first six months of age.
Dutch-speaking women who are about to start an IVF treatment will be approached. If they are willing to participate in the study, they will receive an email with a link to an online questionnaire. This questionnaire will evaluate the communication by the midwive in preparation for an IVF treatment. When 50 women have completed the questionnaire a standardized communication protocol will be enrolled. Once all midwives are trained, 50 other IVF patients will be asked to complete the slightly adapted post questionnaire.The data from both questionnaires will be compared.
