Filter by:mobile application will be developed to support the post-discharge home care of mothers of premature babies. With the developed mobile application, the effect of the education given to the mothers on the knowledge and skills of infant care, mother-infant attachment, and the mother's self-efficacy will be evaluated.
Acute pancreatitis (AP) is one of the most common reason for hospitalization among gastrointestinal diseases in U.S.. The costs caused by severe AP are higher than mild AP. Nevertheless, approximately 70% of hospital admissions for AP are mild cases, if health cost saving is to be realized, it would be by lowering the cost of managing patients with mild AP without affecting patient's safety and satisfaction. With the PADI-1 study, where it was possible to confirm the benefits of an early diet, the rapid recovery of patients with mild AP and the reduction of hospital costs, now a new scope is to be given in the treatment of patients with this pathology. Considering the application of predictive factors of AP severity, and being sure of diagnosing mild AP, a study of home care versus hospitalization for patients with mild AP is proposed. Based on the hypothesis that outpatient care of mild AP patients would be as sage and affective as hospitalization, the aim this study is to campare the results of 3 different strategies of treatment of patients with AP mild. Additionally, satisfaction patient and costs will be analyzed.
Home care is the assistance provided at home to those who can not travel to their Health Center. There are multiple studies on models of home care and many discrepancies about the impact that preventive home visits can have. Hypothesis: home care is expected to be better if performed by a team dedicated exclusively to the home patient, than to the traditional model, where the patient is assisted by the team that cares for the rest of the community. Goals: Main: determine the difference in median cumulative days of hospital admission in 12 months. Secondaries: - results in health - in health experience in efficiency Methodology: Quasi-experimental study of two years duration. All the subjects included in the Home Care Program and that meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria are studied. The care team will provide the informed consent and information sheet to the patient and clinical scales at the beginning and end of the study. Researchers will be responsible for the collection of data that they will anonymize and guard. Statistical analysis: The analyzes will be calculated with the statistical package SPSS version 21 Expected results: hospital admissions (25%) and cumulative days by admission and patient by 65% are expected to improve in the model under study. Applicability and relevance: the trend towards a greater aging of the population makes it necessary to study models of care that allow us to detect which can be beneficial to the population and feasible in our current context.
