Balancing the economic costs related to mental illness is a pressing matter globally. Scarce monetary and staff resources impose an ongoing challenge. Therapeutic leaves (TL) are an established clinic...
We analyzed the association between the number of TL and direct inpatient healthcare costs in a sample of 3151 inpatients, using a tweedie multiple regression model, including eleven confounders. Usin...
The tweedie model showed that the number of TL was associated with lower costs following the initial inpatient stay (B = -.141, CI 95% = [-0.225, -.057], p < 0.001). Results of the multiple linear and...
Our findings suggest a link between TL and direct inpatient healthcare costs. TL might lower direct inpatient healthcare costs. In the future RCTs might examine whether an increased utilization of TL ...
Inpatient falls have a significant impact on the outcomes of older patients during inpatient rehabilitation. A retrospective case-control study was conducted using data of 7066 adults aged 55 yrs or o...
The complexity of antiparkinsonian medications makes patients vulnerable to medication deviations. This study examines the frequency and outcomes of deviations between outpatient and inpatient medicat...
We included hospital admissions of patients with PD during a 12-month period at the Cleveland Clinic Main and Fairview campuses. Outpatient regimens were compared with hospital medication administrati...
The study included 492 patients with 725 admissions. Of those on time-critical medications, 43% had a LEDD deviation and 19% had levodopa formulation substitutions. Of the admission days with known ou...
Deviations between outpatient and hospital regimens, and administration of antidopaminergic medications, were associated with poor outcomes....
Merkel Cell Carcinoma is a rare and aggressive cutaneous carcinoma with a propensity for metastasis and death. Our study describes the prevalence, sociodemographics and inpatient mortality of Merkel C...
To construct a venous thromboembolism (VTE) risk assessment model specifically for inpatients with cancer....
Patients were included according to the inclusion criteria. Univariate and multivariate analyses of all variables were included to develop a VTE risk assessment model applicable to the derivation coho...
A total of 944 cancer patients were included in this study. Alfalfa-inpatient-CAT model, a risk assessment model for VTE in hospitalized cancer patients, was established, which mainly includes hyperte...
This study developed a new VTE risk assessment model - Alfalfa-inpatient-CAT model - for hospitalized cancer patients at high risk of thrombosis. This model has a good fitting degree and discriminant ...
Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is an essential procedure for a range of psychiatric conditions. Multiple single-center studies have documented reduction in ECT administration in 2020 because of the c...
The 2019 and 2020 National Inpatient Sample, an administrative database of inpatient hospitalizations in the United States, was queried for hospitalizations involving the delivery of ECT based on proc...
In the 2019 NIS, 14,230 inpatient hospitalizations (95% confidence interval, 12,936-15,524) involved the use of ECT, with a cumulative 52,450 inpatient ECT procedures administered. In 2020, the number...
Electroconvulsive therapy use among general hospital inpatients declined between 2019 and 2020, with regional variability in the magnitude of change. Further study is warranted into the root causes an...
Inpatient rehabilitation plays an important role in treating neurological diseases in children and adolescents. However, there is a lack of current research concerning this matter. This retrospective ...
We reviewed medical records of patients, diagnosed with cerebral palsy, traumatic brain injury (TBI), or stroke who had an inpatient rehabilitation at the Department of Neuropediatrics of St. Mauritiu...
A total of 738 patients with a mean age of 9.2 (± 5.1) years and a mean LOS of 53.8 (± 33.7) days were included; 38.5% were female. Patients, regardless of their diagnosis, sex, or age, demonstrated h...
This is a current study, supporting the effectiveness of neuropediatric inpatient rehabilitation and affirming its value in treating neurological diseases in children and adolescents....
We aimed to investigate the prevalence, resource utilization, and comorbidities of patients with Turner syndrome (TS) hospitalized in the United States. We identified patients within the Nationwide In...
Inpatient suicide in hospitals is a worrying phenomenon that has received little attention. This study retrospectively explored the socio-demographic, clinical, and suicide-related characteristics of ...
Data were collected through the historical archive, annual registers, and autopsy reports, in certified copies of the originals deposited with the prosecutors of the courts....
Considering the global sample, inpatients were mainly men (N = 128; 64.6%), with a mean age of 56.7 years (SD ± 19.8), of Italian nationality (N = 176; 88.9%), admitted to non-psychiatric wards (N = 1...
A fuller characterization of suicide among hospitalized inpatients requires systematic and computerized data gathering that provides for specific information. Indeed, this could be valuable for inpati...
Eating disorders affect individuals of all ages, genders, sexual orientations, ethnicities, races, and socioeconomic statuses. They can lead to serious medical complications that require inpatient tre...
