Filter by:The purpose of this study is to find out if a new training program for nurses called PACT (Partnership, Assessment, Care, and Transition) will be effective and relevant in helping nurses gain the skills needed to provide high-quality family-centered care. Family-centered care skills include engaging family caregivers as partners in patient care, and strengthening their capacity for caregiving by assessing family support needs and facilitating access to resources when needed. The study will also look at whether the quality of nurses' family-centered care skills is associated with improved outcomes for family caregivers. Both nurses and family caregivers will be enrolled in this study. Participants will be nurses/caregivers who care for advanced GI cancer patients admitted to Memorial Sloan Kettering.
The number of endoscopies performed varies greatly between different countries and does not reflect variations in disease incidents. The costs of unnecessary endoscopies are significant and with a better selection of which patients need to be examined with endoscopy, resources could be saved in healthcare, and a better triage would mean that malignancies and other more serious conditions do not have to wait. An example of unnecessary endoscopy is a colonoscopy in patients with irritable bowel syndrome or gastroscopy in patients with functional dyspepsia. The purpose of the project is, among other things: - What diagnostic benefit have gastroscopy, colonoscopy, capsule endoscopy and double balloon enteroscopy for different indications in different age groups? - What are the risks of this type of examination? - Can patients be better selected based on symptoms, psychometric data or laboratory findings to reduce the number of unnecessary examinations and prioritize those that should be scooped up first? - Can changed calling methods reduce the number of late cancellations and rebookings and missed patients?
This is an artificial intelligence-based optical artificial intelligence assisted system that can assist endoscopists in improving the quality of endoscopy.
