Book Synopsis Age-Friendly Health Systems by : Terry Fulmer
Download or read book Age-Friendly Health Systems written by Terry Fulmer and published by Institute for Healthcare Improvement (Ihi). This book was released on 2022-02 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: According to the US Census Bureau, the US population aged 65+ years is expected to nearly double over the next 30 years, from 43.1 million in 2012 to an estimated 83.7 million in 2050. These demographic advances, however extraordinary, have left our health systems behind as they struggle to reliably provide evidence-based practice to every older adult at every care interaction. Age-Friendly Health Systems is an initiative of The John A. Hartford Foundation and the Institute for Healthcare Improvement (IHI), in partnership with the American Hospital Association (AHA) and the Catholic Health Association of the United States (CHA), designed Age-Friendly Health Systems to meet this challenge head on. Age-Friendly Health Systems aim to: Follow an essential set of evidence-based practices; Cause no harm; and Align with What Matters to the older adult and their family caregivers.

Book Synopsis Crossing the Quality Chasm by : Institute of Medicine
Download or read book Crossing the Quality Chasm written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2001-07-19 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Second in a series of publications from the Institute of Medicine's Quality of Health Care in America project Today's health care providers have more research findings and more technology available to them than ever before. Yet recent reports have raised serious doubts about the quality of health care in America. Crossing the Quality Chasm makes an urgent call for fundamental change to close the quality gap. This book recommends a sweeping redesign of the American health care system and provides overarching principles for specific direction for policymakers, health care leaders, clinicians, regulators, purchasers, and others. In this comprehensive volume the committee offers: A set of performance expectations for the 21st century health care system. A set of 10 new rules to guide patient-clinician relationships. A suggested organizing framework to better align the incentives inherent in payment and accountability with improvements in quality. Key steps to promote evidence-based practice and strengthen clinical information systems. Analyzing health care organizations as complex systems, Crossing the Quality Chasm also documents the causes of the quality gap, identifies current practices that impede quality care, and explores how systems approaches can be used to implement change.

Download or read book Brain Stimulation written by Irving Reti and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2015-03-12 with total page 365 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Brain stimulation technologies are both tools to probe brain function and to provide therapeutic options for patients with neuropsychiatric disease where pharmacological options are not viable. Although the field has been in existence for over seventy years, research interest in brain stimulation has been on the rise particularly in the last two decades. Brain Stimulation: Methodologies and Interventions is an introduction to the field of brain stimulation technology and its applications. The book explores how brainstimulating technologies work in the context of brain pathways that mediate normal and abnormal brain function. Chapters cover neuroanatomy and activity dependent changes in neuronal function triggered by brain stimulation, as well as applications of brain stimulation technologies themselves, including noninvasive procedures that rely on convulsive or seizure therapeutics, and non-convulsive therapies such as magnetic and electrical brain stimulation. Authored by an international group of leaders in the field, Brain Stimulation is a valuable resource for both neuroscience researchers and clinicians.

Book Synopsis Brain Stimulation by : John C. Rothwell
Download or read book Brain Stimulation written by John C. Rothwell and published by Elsevier Inc. Chapters. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There have been a large number of basic research studies of noninvasive brain stimulation in Parkinson’s disease. Initial work focused on measuring: (1) the excitability of corticospinal output with threshold and input–output measures, and (2) the effectiveness of intracortical γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA)ergic inhibitory systems using short-interval intracortical inhibition (SICI), long-interval intracortical inhibition (LICI), and silent period measures. Early suggestions of increased excitability and reduced inhibition have been progressively modified. There are conflicting reports on changes in excitability, silent period, and LICI, and the more consistent reduction in SICI is now viewed as a superimposed excitation rather than a primary deficit in a GABAergic mechanism. A small number of studies have suggested that premovement increases in corticospinal excitability may be prolonged in Parkinson’s disease, consistent with the suggestion of slower buildup of the motor command to move; there are also modifications of interhemispheric connections in patients with mirror movements. Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) has also been used to explore the involvement of motor cortex and cerebellum in resting and postural tremors by examining how readily they can be reset by single TMS pulses over each area. It can also probe the effects of deep brain stimulation of motor cortex excitability. Finally, new TMS techniques that examine synaptic plasticity in motor cortex have shown reduced excitability in patients off therapy which is restored when on therapy. Data are also emerging about the possible role of cortical plasticity in compensating for gradual loss of dopaminergic function prior to onset of clinical symptoms.

Book Synopsis To Err Is Human by : Institute of Medicine
Download or read book To Err Is Human written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2000-03-01 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Experts estimate that as many as 98,000 people die in any given year from medical errors that occur in hospitals. That's more than die from motor vehicle accidents, breast cancer, or AIDSâ€"three causes that receive far more public attention. Indeed, more people die annually from medication errors than from workplace injuries. Add the financial cost to the human tragedy, and medical error easily rises to the top ranks of urgent, widespread public problems. To Err Is Human breaks the silence that has surrounded medical errors and their consequenceâ€"but not by pointing fingers at caring health care professionals who make honest mistakes. After all, to err is human. Instead, this book sets forth a national agendaâ€"with state and local implicationsâ€"for reducing medical errors and improving patient safety through the design of a safer health system. This volume reveals the often startling statistics of medical error and the disparity between the incidence of error and public perception of it, given many patients' expectations that the medical profession always performs perfectly. A careful examination is made of how the surrounding forces of legislation, regulation, and market activity influence the quality of care provided by health care organizations and then looks at their handling of medical mistakes. Using a detailed case study, the book reviews the current understanding of why these mistakes happen. A key theme is that legitimate liability concerns discourage reporting of errorsâ€"which begs the question, "How can we learn from our mistakes?" Balancing regulatory versus market-based initiatives and public versus private efforts, the Institute of Medicine presents wide-ranging recommendations for improving patient safety, in the areas of leadership, improved data collection and analysis, and development of effective systems at the level of direct patient care. To Err Is Human asserts that the problem is not bad people in health careâ€"it is that good people are working in bad systems that need to be made safer. Comprehensive and straightforward, this book offers a clear prescription for raising the level of patient safety in American health care. It also explains how patients themselves can influence the quality of care that they receive once they check into the hospital. This book will be vitally important to federal, state, and local health policy makers and regulators, health professional licensing officials, hospital administrators, medical educators and students, health caregivers, health journalists, patient advocatesâ€"as well as patients themselves. First in a series of publications from the Quality of Health Care in America, a project initiated by the Institute of Medicine
