The specific computer application discussed involves the development of an expert system, which mimics the decision-making process typically used by experts in a field. Expert systems are useful as consultants for problems that are best approached from the perspective of an expert. The prototype expert system presented in this article can be used to efficiently assign hospital beds to specific patients at the time of hospital admission or during the hospital stay. This assignment is based on a matching process by the expert system of patient needs and hospital bed characteristics. Data needed for this assignment are routinely collected at admission and updated during the patient's stay in the hospital. Use of this computer-based decision support system in conjunction with existing hospital information systems will result in more effective management of physical and human resources. As may be expected, any improvement in efficiency of use of resources will have an associated reduction in cost. Implications of using expert systems for future practice are also discussed.</p>","PeriodicalId":77163,"journal":{"name":"Hospital & health services administration","volume":"40 3","pages":"386-400"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"21016080","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}

Fear of HIV contagion as workplace stress: behavioral consequences and buffers. 对HIV传染的恐惧作为工作压力:行为后果和缓冲。

It tests a job-control of stress reduction that focuses on reducing uncertainty. Results indicate that fear levels are lower in organizations that have policies providing employees with certain types of information about the stressor. Analysis reveals that mechanisms conveying explicit information, rather than information that is indirect or implied, have the strongest association with lower fear levels. Hypotheses are tested in the context of nursing staff fears of contagion from HIV-infected patients, using data from 558 randomly selected hospitals nationwide.

A multidisciplinary team is critical for improvement activities-hospital administrators, nurses, and other colleagues. All need to learn new knowledge and leadership skills, but there is a special need to understand underlying issues that will require a transformation in many physicians. This will not be easy--nor should it be. Physicians must continue to achieve the benefits for patients that come from traditional professional knowledge. However, there is an even greater need to understand how physicians can move from the dominance approach of the medical model to a partnership approach inherent in CQI. This article describes lessons learned from our CQI work with physician colleagues over the last several years. First the relationship of professional knowledge to knowledge for improvement is described, and then the individual patient-doctor relationship is reexamined. Next, the implications of knowledge for improvement for the roles of physicians in organized health care systems are considered.</p>","PeriodicalId":77163,"journal":{"name":"Hospital & health services administration","volume":"40 1","pages":"40-9"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"21012745","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}

Product-line evaluation of graduate medical education program costs. 研究生医学教育项目成本的产品线评估。

Department-level data for 1988, 1989, and 1990 were used to estimate a multiple regression model of total costs per disposition for the specialties of medicine, surgery, obstetrics/gynecology, orthopedics, psychiatry, and pediatrics. Systemwide and facility-specific GME program costs per disposition were estimated for each specialty on the basis of dependent variable scores predicted by the regression model. Measures of case-mix intensity, facility bed size, department staff size, clinical specialty, GME status, teaching intensity, operating efficiency, and regional variation each made statistically significant contributions to the explained variance in total costs per disposition, and yielded an adjusted R2 of .701. Estimates of total costs and GME costs per disposition revealed substantial variation among clinical specialties, both systemwide and within specific facilities. The results of these techniques, their usefulness for enhancing executive ability to evaluate costs of GME programs as product lines, and their implications for public policy regarding hospital payments are discussed.</p>","PeriodicalId":77163,"journal":{"name":"Hospital & health services administration","volume":"39 2","pages":"265-78"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"21006898","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}
