Office-Based Anesthesia: A Comprehensive Review and 2019 Update | Over the last 25 years, with an exponential growth in the complexity of patients and procedures in the office-based setting, the topic of patient safety is becoming more fundamental. Current research efforts focus on the implementation of customizable safety checklists for both the patient and provider, and an emergency manual specifically adapted to guide providers though challenging and unexpected emergencies in this unique setting. Additional efforts are focusing on legislative changes and accreditation to standardize and ensure increased accountability and patient safety. | Using his natural language medical text analyzing system, the author has computer-processed the discharge summary segment of the patient record. The output of the text analyzer is a list of medical facts. The low-cost, high productivity process is eminently suited for screening the quality of clinical care provided in the hospital. | kor_Hang | 6,100 |
Ethics: the professional challenge | Discusses the extent of ethical guidance within the UK information profession, focussing on the role of codes of ethics and guidelines for ethical conduct. The key role of universities in teaching professional ethics as part of all students' library and information science (LIS) studies is identified, as is the students' own responsibility for educating themselves. But it is concluded that the greatest onus is on the professional associations. The different approach to supporting members on issues of professional ethics adopted by the former Library Association (LA) and Institute of Information Scientists (IIS) is demonstrated by analysis of their published Code and Guidelines. Weaknesses in the former's prescriptive and proscriptive Code are contrasted with strengths in the latter's aspirational Guidelines. The present status of the Chartered Institute of Library and Information Professionals in this context is discussed, and key recommendations are made. | The discussion of diversity in medical care should be expanded to include religious affiliation as a category of difference.

Managing Clinical Laboratory Data Flow | This paper describes the practicalities of electronically transferring laboratory data from a central laboratory to a pharmaceutical company. Electronic transfer of data is a valuable technique throughout the development of a new drug: from early safety evaluations of novel compounds in Phase I trials, to major long-term Phase II and Phase III safety and efficacy trials. It is especially useful when working with dedicated contract research organizations, where large volumes of clinical laboratory data are exchanged. The benefits of electronic data transfer, however, can only be realized fully if the process of information flow is well managed.This paper considers how to maximize the benefits of electronic data transfer through: effective collaboration, understanding and optimizing the process of getting information from its source to its destination, controlling the flow of information, validation of systems handling laboratory data, and using risk management techniques. | Several pilot programs were provided in 2010, including ganglioside antibodies, CCP using patient sera, and monitoring amyloidosis with serum free light chains.

[Structural-functional features of the large and small bronchi and differences in their inflammatory reactions]. | Structural-functional features of bronchi reflect the differences in the inflammation in their walls. This should be taken into consideration by pathologists studying biopsies and by clinicians evaluating lungs roentgenologically and by ultrasound. | Developers of consumer health information (CHI) websites and pages in Taiwan have included: 1) individuals; 2) general hospitals; 3) disease-oriented associations; 4) government health administrative agencies; and 5) commercial corporations. General hospitals have developed the largest number of sites, but the quality of these sites differs widely. The unprecedented impact of health-oriented websites on medical care and the health of the public in general necessitates the establishment of credible instruments for the evaluation and rating of the quality of such websites and pages. In this paper, we describe the current status of CHI websites and pages in Taiwan. Suggestions for improving the content of CHI websites and pages are also proposed. | eng_Latn | 6,106 |
Research on the Way to Build the Enterprise Credit Mechanism Based on Scientific Concept of Development | When establishing enterprise credit mechanism,we should not consider the aspect of enterprise credit only,but should establish the scientific concept of development to build an “overall,coordinated and sustainable” credit system.To reach this goal,we should start from the external governance in terms of politics,law,information platform and intermediary agency and at the same time implement internal systematic innovation which helps to form the property rights incentive system,supervision mechanism of legal person governance and internal credit management system so as to establish the omni-directional,multi-angled,sustainable and self-improved enterprise credit mechanism. | SUMMARY: In this second article, we continue the review of current health care economics as it relates to radiologists, specifically framed by topics defined by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education in the evaluation of neuroradiology fellows.

Informatics for the Modern Intensive Care Unit | Advanced informatics systems can help improve health care delivery and the environment of care for critically ill patients. However, identifying, testing, and deploying advanced informatics systems can be quite challenging. These processes often require involvement from a collaborative group of health care professionals of varied disciplines with knowledge of the complexities related to designing the modern and "smart" intensive care unit (ICU). In this article, we explore the connectivity environment within the ICU, middleware technologies to address a host of patient care initiatives, and the core informatics concepts necessary for both the design and implementation of advanced informatics systems. | This is a reflection on the practices of the management in Educative Mathematics Program in the CICATA-IPN are presented considering the four dimensions of virtual programs management.

Endogenous opioid peptides suppress cytokine-mediated upregulation of HIV- 1 expression in the chronically infected promonocyte clone U1 | Opioid peptides appear to have an immunomodulatory activity. Using the chronically HIV-1-infected promonocyte clone Ul, we investigated the effect of endogenous and synthetic opioid agonists on cytokine-induced HIV-1 expression. None of the endogenous or synthetic opioid agonists had an effect on constitutive HIV-1 expression. Opioid agonists such as methionine-enkephalin, dynorphin, and the κ receptor agonist, U50,488, dose-de-pendently suppressed (>40%) interleukin (IL)-6-induced upregulation of HIV-1 expression. Interestingly, opioid receptor antagonists (u, δ, and κ types) also inhibited (>60%) IL-6-induced upregulation of HIV-1 expression. All opioid agonists and antagonists tested only modestly suppressed (<20%) tumor necrosis factor-α-induced upregulation of HIV-1 expression in Ul cell cultures. These data suggest that certain opioid peptides alter an IL-6-induced signal transduction pathway which triggers HIV-1 expression in the chronically infected promonocyte Ul. | 277 Background: Reviewing clinical practice by provider has been an ongoing process for quite some time. The metrics reviewed and how the review was conducted were not clearly defined and, as a result, has varied widely between organizations.

Provably Secure and Pairing-Based Strong Designated Verifier Signature Scheme with Message Recovery | In this paper, an efficient and secure strong designated verifier signature with message recovery scheme is presented using elliptic curve and bilinear pairing. In our scheme, the signer implants a message on the signature and sends it without message to the verifier, who then extracts the original message and validates the message-signature pair. However, an outsider is unable to verify the message-signature pair since the verifier’s private key is strictly required for verification. Our scheme has been designed to achieve confidentiality, integrity, authentication and non-repudiation of message transmitted through hostile networks. Our scheme is secure against adaptive chosen message attack in the random oracle model under the intractability assumption of Co-Bilinear Diffie–Hellman problem. Besides, our scheme is computation and communication efficient than other schemes, and hence, it may be useful in many small message applications and also for the resource-constrained environments. | By now it should be clear to readers that the self-help movement in mental health is represented by an enormous range of resources available, along various continua of validity and reliability. One of the most important areas in need of investigation is the area of patient–treatment matching with respect to SH. More specifically, who is most likely to benefit by SH? What are the most reliable indicators of assignment to SH? When are SH interventions most indicated? To answer these questions, a theory of SH and SC based on what is known about patient–treatment matching might more likely prove beneficial in the assignment of the various SH resources available today (e.g., Harwood & Beutler,2008 Beutler & Harwood, 2000; Beutler, Clarkin, & Bongar, 2000; Beutler & Clarkin, 1990). | eng_Latn | 6,113 |
Ethical issues relating to the conduct and interpretation of epidemiologic research in private industry | This paper identifies the parties to which epidemiologists are obligated and explores the areas in which potential conflicts of obligations can occur. It is concluded that all epidemiologists, regardless of the organizational context in which they operate, share similar obligations to their subjects, society, their employer or funding agency, and their colleagues. The fundamental principals inherent to an epidemiologist's obligation to protect the public health is to identify real health problems and promote their resolution. It is in everyone's interest, including private industry, to respect those principals, and an industry supported epidemiology program can be an effective means for accomplishing that. These programs can be innovatively designed to protect those fundamental principles and thereby avoid conflicts of interest. This is illustrated with some examples from the epidemiology program operated at The Dow Chemical Company. | AbstractRATIONALE: Delivery of pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) varies widely across Canada.

Patient- and Family-Centered Care: A Primer | Abstract Patient- and family-centered care is a model of providing care in which the patient and family are partners with the provider and care team. A resurgence of interest in patient- and family-centered care is due, in part, to increasing consumerism in health care and the linking of reimbursement to the patient experience. Individual radiologists, practices, enterprises, and radiology professional societies have been engaged with patient- and family-centered care in varying degrees for many years. Understanding the roots and evolution of this care model will encourage further application of these principles in radiology. | In the previous chapter, how PPAC ontology is developed is presented.

Analysis of security techniques and issues in Data Warehouse | The importance of data warehouses in organizations has grown increasingly during this decade, and today they constitute one of the main trends for the development of information technology. Data warehouse system consolidates large data from multiple different sources and these are used by decision makers to analyze the status and the development of an organization. Data warehouses are becoming very vital and beneficial for many types of strategic decisions. Data Warehouse stores large amount of valuable data so it is very important to set a security, from primary stages of data warehouse design so that data must be secured in an effective fashion. Significance of security, security approaches and their issues have been provided in this paper. | Despite the fact that since 1985 the government of Quebec increased by 5.75 % on average the amount of money spent on healthcare per year, little improvement was noted. It is obvious that an optimal use of resources is essential to reduce waiting times and provide safer and faster services to patients. The use of new technology can contribute to improve the healthcare system efficiency. Our study aims to assess the impact of a medication distribution technology on 1) the performance of a health and social services center’s pharmacy, 2) the performance of one care unit in a nursing home and on 3) the medication-use process safety. To measure performance we were inspired by the Lean approach. The results show that medication distribution technology is considered as an effective way to significantly detect medication errors, to allow nurses to focus more on patients and pharmacy to react more rapidly to changes in patient medications. | eng_Latn | 6,122 |

ULTRASOUND MONITORING OF FETAL MOVEMENTS: A Method for Assessing Fetal Development? | Human fetal movements in utero have been analysed by conventional compound B-scan ultrasound techniques. With practice, movements of specific parts of the fetus can be readily recognised, and even as early as the 6th week after conception gross movements of the whole embryo are visible. Monitoring of fetal movements as an indication of normal or abnormal fetal development appears to have been neglected, and future studies in this important area of antenatal paediatrics are suggested. | In this discussion paper, it is suggested that uni‐professional clinical audits could be used for reflective dialogue centred inter‐professional education opportunities. Using an analysis of two medical audits that illustrate how uni‐professional audit might reinforce mistaken assumptions about inter‐professional situations, it is argued that there is a need to challenge the current audit culture, emphasizing enhancement of practice rather than compliance‐based assurance. To realize the refocusing of the audit process from one of quality assurance to one of quality enhancement, this paper suggests that there needs to be a shift in the balance of audit process outcomes which are essentially pragmatic and compliance oriented to more dialogic formative outcomes that require the auditors to have an interactive relationship with both trainee healthcare providers (i.e. pre‐registration medics, nurses and allied healthcare providers) as well as a discursive one with other post‐registration professionals. | yue_Hant | 6,124 |

HHH: An Online Medical Chatbot System based on Knowledge Graph and Hierarchical Bi-Directional Attention | This paper proposes a chatbot framework that adopts a hybrid model which consists of a knowledge graph and a text similarity model. Based on this chatbot framework, we build HHH, an online question-and-answer (QA) Healthcare Helper system for answering complex medical questions. HHH maintains a knowledge graph constructed from medical data collected from the Internet. HHH also implements a novel text representation and similarity deep learning model, Hierarchical BiLSTM Attention Model (HBAM), to find the most similar question from a large QA dataset. We compare HBAM with other state-of-the-art language models such as bidirectional encoder representation from transformers (BERT) and Manhattan LSTM Model (MaLSTM). We train and test the models with a subset of the Quora duplicate questions dataset in the medical area. The experimental results show that our model is able to achieve a superior performance than these existing methods. | By now it should be clear to readers that the self-help movement in mental health is represented by an enormous range of resources available, along various continua of validity and reliability.

Prevalence and patterns of alternative medication use in a University hospital outpatient clinic serving rheumatology and geriatric patients | A random sample of 176 patients seen at least once during 1997 in a University hospital outpatient clinic serving rheumatology and geriatric patients were surveyed in a telephone interview to determine the prevalence of, and reasons for taking, alternative medications. Interviews were conducted from November 1997–March 1998. The survey elicited information about patients' ability to provide self-care, demographics, work status, satisfaction with current disease management, types of alternative medications taken, sources of information about the products, where they obtained the products, and reasons for taking the products. Patients also were questioned as to their knowledge of safety of these products. Statistical comparisons were determined between patients who used alternative agents and those who did not. Prevalence of use was 66%. Most patients thought that the agents were safe and took them because they believed they have “added benefits.” | Abstract ::: Usage of streaming digital video of lectures in preclinical courses was measured by analysis of the data in the log file maintained on the web server.

Physiatric Management of Chronic Benign Pain | All of us have experienced pain. We have at one time or another been pricked by a needle or pin, burned, banged our shin, or perhaps strained our back or suffered from bursitis or even a fractured bone. The underlying pathophysiology of an acute pain syndrome is usually not difficult to understand, and once the precipitating factor is removed or treated the pain will often promptly subside. Unfortunately, in our clinical practices we are not infrequently called upon to see patients suffering from more severe, perhaps intractable, pain, and we must (sometimes reluctantly) accept the challenge of being responsible for the management of such patients. When dealing with patients with chronic pain, there are a number of considerations that must be taken into account in order to devise an effective treatment plan. | 277 Background: Reviewing clinical practice by provider has been an ongoing process for quite some time.

Ebola Virus Disease: An Update on Epidemiology, Symptoms, Laboratory Findings, Diagnostic Issues, and Infection Prevention and Control Issues for Laboratory Professionals. | The 2014 to 2016 Ebola virus disease (EVD), through the sheer size of the outbreak and combined experience within both resource-rich and resource-poor settings, allowed for more information to be gained about the clinical and pathologic features of EVD. This review highlights the range of aspects of EVD that the authors find are relevant to laboratory medicine, including the need for robust prediagnostic and laboratory processing algorithms to inform sampling of suspect patients, the vast majority of whom, in resource-rich settings, will have another diagnosis. | Even after Hwang Woo Suk's research ethics scandal in Korean research fields, there are still research ethic problems that are present in the Korean society. In order to spread research ethics education around Korea, there needs to be sufficient amount of research ethics contents prepared, which then can be used to educate and put into action. Through the usages of the scope of research ethics, comparing and contrasting several examples from domestic illegal research acts and American research ethics education, and the Learning Activity Management Systems (LAMS), we would be able to develop a way to manage the research ethics education. Also, in order to fully use and apply the necessary contents and material for the research ethics education program in several universities, we would not only need to use the LAMS system to establish the training system, but also to spread the awareness of research ethics. | eng_Latn | 6,135 |

How well are heart rates measured by pulse oximeters and electronic sphygmomanometers?: Practice-based evidence from an observational study of acutely ill medical patients during hospital admission | BACKGROUND ::: heart rates generated by pulse oximeters and electronic sphygmomanometers in acutely ill patients may not be the same as those recorded by ECG. ::: ::: ::: METHODS ::: heart rates recorded by an oximeter and an electronic sphygmomanometer were compared with electrocardiogram (ECG) heart rates measured on acutely ill medical patients. ::: ::: ::: RESULTS ::: 1010 ECGs were performed on 217 patients while they were in the hospital. The bias between the oximeter and the ECG measured heart rate was -1.37 beats per minute (limits of agreement -22.6 to 19.9 beats per minute), and the bias between the sphygmomanometer and the ECG measured heart rate was -0.14 beats per minute (limits of agreement -22.2 to 21.9 beats per minute). Both devices failed to identify more than half the ECG recordings that awarded 3 NEWS points for heart rate. ::: ::: ::: CONCLUSION ::: Heart rates of acutely ill patients are not reliably measured by pulse oximeter or electronic sphygmomanometers. | In order to get rational use of drug,it is critical to do inpatients-oriented prescription evaluation.How to use clinical pathway as tools for prescription evaluation,training the team,developing standardized documents,and setting up prescription evaluation system for inpatients' medicine order,through PDCA,are discussed. | eng_Latn | 6,137 |
Digitale Subtraktionsangiographie (DSA) der Lunge | DSA of the lung entails reduced examination risk and is a simpler procedure than conventional angiography. Out of a total of 55 lung DSA's, 53 (96%) supplied reliable diagnostic information. Suspicion of pulmonary embolism was the most frequent indication. DSA was also successfully employed in therapy control. Since other diseases of the pulmonary vessels can also be diagnosed via DSA, it can largely replace conventional pulmonary angiography. Disadvantages of DSA which must be taken into consideration are the reduced local resolution and limitations imposed by artifacts caused by patients movements. | In the number of the Journal for April, 1868, Herr Wilhelm Lazarus, of Hamburg, reported the recent establishment in Berlin of a German Life Assurance Institute, a society having generally the same object as the Institute of Actuaries.

Advanced Therapies for Advanced Heart Failure in Women. | Women with advanced heart failure (HF) are underrepresented in trials of short-term and durable mechanical circulatory support although they derive similar benefit. In acute HF, intensive medical and interventional therapies are effective but underutilized. The smaller, newer generation, left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) have increased the feasibility of durable support in women. Women frequently present late, with more comorbidities, emphasizing the need for timely referral. Compared with men, the stroke risk is higher in women with an LVAD. Increased representation in clinical trials and a better understanding of the psychosocial issues affecting women is essential. | The year 2002 brought a successive funding change-over from until now institutional to programme oriented funding (POF) in the Helmholtz Association of German Research Centres (HGF). This way the 15 German research centres now have to generate their means successively from programmes of the research fields of the HGF (see: www.helmholtz.de) by competing with each other. This nucleus of the reform of the Association is being implemented based upon the opinion of international experts. In this context the evaluation of publications of individual research centres, resp. research groups will be playing an ever increasing part. This lecture will inform about the reformed, partially formalized system and first experiences therewith at the time of the first evaluations. | eng_Latn | 6,139 |

In 1952, three parents of children with cerebral palsy set up The Spastics Society because no one would educate their children. The organisation grew and changed to become a household name. But attitudes to disabled people changed as well. The word 'spastic' became a term of abuse. Suddenly, The Spastics Society's name was holding it back. We wanted to say something positive about disability. In 1994, The Spastics Society became Scope. | eng_Latn | 6,142 |

Linking outcomes management to quality-of-life measurement. | Health-care workers now accept quality of life (QOL) as an important outcome to evaluate in clinical research and as a useful measure of quality care. Indeed, current demand for QOL assessment in clinical practice has outpaced the availability of valid, streamlined, cost-effective methods for carrying out such assessment, although new tools are in the offing. This paper will highlight some of the major challenges facing outcomes management and outcomes research, with particular focus on the development of a QOL instrument to evaluate and manage anemia and fatigue in cancer patients--the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Anemia (FACT-An). The newest version of broader QOL assessment system, the Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy (FACIT), will also be described. | Abstract An LMI approach for designing output feedback controllers is presented.

Design and implementation of S-MARKS: A secure middleware for pervasive computing applications | As portable devices have become a part of our everyday life, more people are unknowingly participating in a pervasive computing environment. People engage with not a single device for a specific purpose but many devices interacting with each other in the course of ordinary activity. With such prevalence of pervasive technology, the interaction between portable devices needs to be continuous and imperceptible to device users. Pervasive computing requires a small, scalable and robust network which relies heavily on the middleware to resolve communication and security issues. In this paper, we present the design and implementation of S-MARKS which incorporates device validation, resource discovery and a privacy module. | Because sentinel surveillance systems cannot obtain information about patients who visit non-sentinel medical facilities, the characteristics of patients identified by these systems may be biased. In this study, we evaluated the representativeness of a methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) surveillance system using health insurance claim (HIC) data, which does not depend on physician notification. We calculated the age-specific incidence of MRSA patients using data from the Japan Nosocomial Infections Surveillance (JANIS) programme, which is based on sentinel surveillance systems, and inpatient HICs submitted to employee health insurance organizations in 2011, and then computed age-specific incidence ratios between the HIC and JANIS data. Age-specific MRSA incidence in both datasets followed J-shaped curves with similar shapes. For all age groups, the ratios between HIC and JANIS data were around 10. These findings indicate that JANIS notification of MRSA cases was not affected by patients’ age. | eng_Latn | 6,150 |

Spatio-temporal variability and sources of volatile halocarbons in the South Yellow Sea and the East China Sea | Abstract Concentrations of volatile halocarbons (VHCs) in surface seawater of the South Yellow Sea and the East China Sea were measured during the summer and winter of 2011. The concentration maxima of CHCl3, C2HCl3, and C2Cl4 were observed in winter, and elevated concentrations of CHBr2Cl and CHBr3 were found in summer. The distributions of VHCs markedly decreased along the freshwater plume from river mouths (such as the Yangtze River estuary) to the open sea. Additionally, the effects of salinity, chlorophyll a, phytoplankton, bacterial abundance, and nutrients on the sources of VHCs were examined. The data showed evidence of spatiotemporal variability and association between the sources of these VHCs and the Yangtze River runoff and biological activity, as well as terrestrial input. The estimated fluxes indicated that the study area acted as sources of VHCs in the atmosphere during the study period. | The Asian Pacific Association for the Study of the Liver(APASL) organized experts from Asian Pacific region to revise the chronic hepatitis B virus infection guidelines in 2015.

Left-to-right shunt assessed by thermodilution during surgery for congenital heart disease. | In nine children with congenital heart defects, left-to-right shunting was assessed during open-heart surgery by injecting cold 5% glucose solution through a left atrial line and detecting temperature change with a pulmonary arterial thermistor. The shunt was quantified by recording the temperature after injecting the same amount of cold glucose solution also through a central venous line. Oximetric determination of the left-to-right shunt was used as a reference. The result was expressed as shunt flow divided by pulmonary blood flow (Qshunt/Qp). The regression equation then obtained was Qshunt/Qp by thermodilution = 0.05 + 0.87 x Qshunt/Qp by oximetry. The residual standard deviation around the line of regression was 0.03. The thermodilution technique can be used for rapid assessment of the presence and magnitude of left-to-right shunting, provided that there is opportunity for the indicator to mix adequately in the main blood stream before shunting occurs. | Information overload has been one of the causes of preventable medical errors [1] and escalating costs [2].
