Filter by:The main goal of this educational intervention study about patient's informational privacy (IP) is to evaluate the effect of the educational intervention into the paramedics' knowledge and attitude regarding patient's IP. The study also investigates the usability and the feasibility of the educational intervention. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. What is the effect of the educational intervention on the 1. theoretical knowledge of paramedics' regarding IP? 2. the paramedics' attitude towards patient's IP? 2. What is the usability and feasibility of the intervention being evaluated according to the respondents?
"Triage" is the first process of emergency treatment. It is mainly based on the severity of the disease and the appropriate allocation of limited people, time, place, and medical resources. It is very important and related to the quality of medical care. In order to accurately judge the severity of patients, reduce the individual errors of artificial memory and increase the consistency of the judgment of triage levels, the new emergency five-level triage classification standard (Taiwan Triage and Acuity Scale) was implemented in 2010. , TTAS), the purpose is to allocate medical resources in the most appropriate manner at the appropriate time. It has been revised many times so far, so correct injury classification can maximize the safety of people's lives. This article reviews the relevant literature and finds that to have an efficient injury classification so that each patient receives appropriate medical allocation, an organized, effective and systematic injury inspection process structure is needed to enable the injury nurse to perform correct inspections. Injury skills and cognition should be actively promoted, and this policy must require traumatization nurses to continuously update their traumatization cognition and skills, and must also continue to conduct regular assessments and reviews to continuously improve the quality of traumatization grading by traumatization nurses. It can be seen that triage nurses must have skills, knowledge, attitudes and systems to improve the accuracy of triage levels and ensure the treatment of patients who need priority treatment . Therefore, this study can be used to understand the learning effectiveness of trauma care before and after diversified teaching, which can be used as a basis for teaching new trauma care nurses.
The goal of this pilot, non-controlled, non-randomised, single centre, prospective intervention feasibility study is to assess the feasibility of a home DC-ECV in the treatment of recurrent symptomatic AF performed by APP in 25 patients. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: Primary objective: In this prospective intervention feasibility study, in 25 patients the primary endpoint is completion of cardioversion to sinus rhythm. (% of study patients with a recurrence of AF in whom a home cardioversion is performed, i.e. to whom at least one DC shock was administered while the patient was under sedation). Feasibility endpoints are ; (a) evaluation of enrolment of participants, (b) evaluation and refinement of data and outcome collection procedures, (c) evaluation of logistics, (d) evaluation of the appropriateness of the intervention and research procedures to manage and implement the intervention, and (e) preliminary evaluation of participant responses to the intervention. Secondary objectives: Safety endpoint: Complications immediately during and one hour after cardioversion (e.g. arrhythmias, changes in the electrocardiogram, hypotension related to sedation and/or vasodilation or skin irritation). A composite of major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) occurring within 24 hours MACCE occurring during 6 weeks follow-up; any hospitalisation and all-cause mortality during 6 weeks follow-up; number (%) of patients in sinus rhythm at 1 hour in the post-shock observation period; idem at the end of 6 weeks follow-up; inventory of all interventions in the study related to cost-of-care.
The goal of this clinical trial is to study systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) electronic health record (EHR) alerts for sepsis in the emergency department (ED). The main question it aims to answer is: do nurse alerts, prescribing clinician alerts, or both nurse and prescribing clinician alerts improve time to sepsis treatment for patients in the ED? Nurses and prescribing clinicians will receive SIRS alerts based on the group to which the patient is randomly assigned. Researchers will compare four groups: no alerts, nurse alerts only, prescribing clinician alerts only, or both nurse and prescribing clinician alerts.
The goal of this mixed methods observational study is to investigate paramedic independent prescribing (PIP) in emergency and urgent healthcare settings. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. What are benefits and limitations of paramedic independent prescribing in emergency and urgent care settings and how does it contribute to patient care and healthcare service delivery? 2. What facilitators and barriers exist which influence the implementation and delivery of PIP as a new and complex intervention within emergency and urgent care? Participants in the study will include paramedics qualified in PIP and staff working at the case study sites. With participant consent, data will be collected using non-participant observation of the prescribing practice of 4-6 paramedics at each site, capturing this data through field notes. The views and insights of a range of other site staff such as managers, doctors and other clinicians will be interviewed at each case site, during semi structured interviews. At each case site anonymised prescribing frequency data will also be collected to understand the range and frequencies of prescribed medication by paramedics. Relevant meetings (such as clinical governance and medicines management meetings) will also be observed, and documentary analysis of relevant site documents will also be undertaken.
In this Study i'll compare the effectiveness of two drugs used in acute exacerbation of asthma by their sideffects, complaince and improvement in the PRAM score. The better one would be adapted in our clinical practice.
This is a research study to determine a method in improving emergency department waiting room care by using new software program.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a homelessness diversion program integrated into a hospital emergency department (ED) will lower ED use, to identify characteristics of individuals most likely to benefit from homelessness diversion and to discover opportunities to tailor Homelessness Diversion (HD) services to better meet the needs of diverse communities.
The goal of this observational study is to compare clinical utility between Remote EEG Monitoring (REMI) and conventional EEG in patients (6 and older) that are undergoing EEG recording in a hospital as part of their routine clinical care. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - What is the concurrence of diagnosis made by epileptologist using REMI and full-EEG signals. - What is the proportion of participants experiencing as seizure at the time of sensor placement, compared between REMI sensor placement and full-EEG placement. Participants will wear REMI and conventional EEG electrodes at the same time.
The purpose of the research is to see if patients that come to the Emergency Department with chest pain can be more accurately and more quickly diagnosed by magnetocardiography (MCG) to see if their chest pain is caused by coronary ischemia (reduced blood flow to the heart) in patients with normal or have non-specific changes on the ECG vs other causes by other reasons.
