Error in any step can be a major threat to the safety of patients. Thus, the present study was trying to assess the level of knowledge and attitude of nurses regarding medication administration, pharmacology applied to nursing and barriers in reporting medication error. Also, its correlations with demographic variables. After obtaining the ethical clearance, a cross-sectional study with 141 nurses was conducted using a set of self-administered questionnaires. The questionnaire included demographic details, multiple choice question and five points of Likert scale related to nursing pharmacology, medication administration, reasons for committing medication error, and the barriers in reporting medication errors. Data was analyzed using both descriptive and inferential statistics (Pearson correlation). The findings of the study showed that only 38% nurses had an adequate knowledge regarding drug calculation and pharmacology applied to nursing, scoring more than 80%. A significant correlation (0.184) was found between knowledge and education level of nursing staffs (p = 0.05). But at the same time nurses follow proper medication administration process and had a favorable attitude toward medication error in real practice. Fear of getting blamed was found to be the highest perceived barrier in reporting medication error. The study concluded that a regular update in knowledge regarding medication administration of nurses is required and trust building by the organization among their staff is required to overcome the fear of getting blamed.","PeriodicalId":55886,"journal":{"name":"Hospital Topics","volume":" ","pages":"1-7"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143627204","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Provincial governments fund acute care in hospitals. However, hospitals have to divert funds to serve ALC patients. In 2019-20, ALC accounted for 19.31% of total bed-days. Yet, there is no comprehensive estimate of the cost of ALC. Therefore, the objective is to estimate the ALC cost, which is challenging, as the cost data for ALC days is lacking. However, the hospitalization cost (acute care plus ALC costs) and the number of acute and ALC days are available. Applying the log-log regression model with interaction terms between provinces and the natural logarithm of ALC length-of-stay to the hospital discharge data, supplemented by hospitalization cost data, the cost elasticity of ALC length-of-stay was estimated for each province. Then, the estimated cost elasticity, average hospitalization cost, average ALC length-of-stay, and total ALC bed-days for each province were utilized to estimate the province-specific cost of ALC in Canada. Summing these costs across provinces, the total expenditure for ALC services in Canadian provinces was estimated at $2.48 billion in 2019-20. This funding could potentially be redirected to improve value for money and enable timely acute care. Additionally, the study identified key diagnoses driving ALC costs.","PeriodicalId":55886,"journal":{"name":"Hospital Topics","volume":" ","pages":"1-11"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143574423","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study evaluated whether provider continuity could increase mechanical ventilation weaning and decannulation rates in the inpatient setting. Methods: Data was collected retrospectively from April 2020 to May 2022 for patients admitted to a pulmonary stepdown unit (SDU). A new staffing model was started in February 2021, in which a small group of physicians and advanced practice providers (APPs) continuously rotated through the unit. Ventilator weaning and decannulation protocols were used before and after initiating the new staffing model. Results: A total of 185 patients were reviewed and included in the study. During the 2‑year timeframe, 46% of the patients were weaned off the ventilator (n = 86), with 26% of the patients weaned occurring before the staffing model (n = 22) and 74% of patients weaned after (n = 64). Of the patients weaned from the ventilator, 56% were decannulated (n = 48), with 10% occurring before the staffing model started (n = 5) and 90% occurring afterward (n = 43). The increase in patients weaned from the ventilator and decannulated after the staffing model was statistically significant (P = 0.01 and P = 0.001, respectively). Conclusion: There was a significant increase in both mechanical ventilator weaning and decannulation rates after initiating the new staffing model. This study shows how continuity of care can have a positive effect on mechanical ventilation weaning and decannulation rates in the inpatient setting.","PeriodicalId":55886,"journal":{"name":"Hospital Topics","volume":" ","pages":"1-7"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143411714","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These women may experience climacteric symptoms that affect their day-to-day life. The aim of the study was to assess and compare climacteric symptoms and their impact on daily lives among employed and unemployed perimenopausal women. A cross-sectional survey was done on 160 rural south Indian women aged 40 to 55 years who were identified as symptomatic of perimenopause as per the Stages of Reproductive Aging Workshop 10+ (STRAW) staging criteria. The study participants were grouped as employed and unemployed. Climacteric symptoms were assessed using Greene Climacteric Scale and climacteric symptoms' impact on daily lives was measured using a structured self-administered questionnaire. Both descriptive and inferential statistics were used to compare the variables between the two groups. The total Greene Climacteric score for unemployed perimenopausal women were found to be significantly higher than the employed group of perimenopausal women (14.5 ± 7.23 versus 12.52 ± 4.9, p < 0.05). The majority (58.8%) of the employed group had minimum impact whereas; the majority (51.2%) of the unemployed group had an average impact score. There was a strong positive correlation between climacteric symptoms and their impact on the daily lives of perimenopausal women. Employment status is a significant factor in causing variation in the climacteric symptoms. Unemployed perimenopausal women suffered more climacteric symptoms than their employed counterparts.","PeriodicalId":55886,"journal":{"name":"Hospital Topics","volume":" ","pages":"20-27"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10674367","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
