Although the number of beds, visits and admissions during these two periods didn't change significantly, a change in the ED’s policy, without a change in the hospital’s policy, converted a very crowded ED to an uncrowded one within few weeks, and changed the pattern of work in the hospital, gradually for many years. \u0000Objectives: To share our experience and describe how a very crowded ED was transformed into an uncrowded one within few weeks and how we maintained the change thereafter. Methods: All data concerning the ED and other department activities were collected by using our hospital’s computerized business intelligence (BI) system. \u0000Results: The average length of stay (LOS) of admitted patients in the ED was 5.05+0.98 hrs during period \"A\" (1993-2001). It dropped to 2.45+0.21 during period \"B\" (2002-2007) (P<0.001). The percent of patients boarding in the ED more than 10 hours dropped from 11.5+2.4% (period “A”) to 2.6+0.7% (period “B”) within three months. Despite a gradual increase in the number of admissions to the GM wards, there was a gradual decrease in the average LOS during period \"B\", compared to period \"A\" (6.1 vs. 5.5 days) (P=0.001). The death rate among patients in the ED and in the GM wards decreased significantly during period \"B\" (P<0.001). \u0000Conclusions: We were able to achieve a difficult goal of eliminating overcrowding in the ED and consequently, other hospital’s wards only through assertiveness, persistence, adherence to protocols and the full personal backing of the hospital's manager.","PeriodicalId":90594,"journal":{"name":"Journal of general practice (Los Angeles, Calif.)","volume":" ","pages":"1-6"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-02-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.4172/2329-9126.1000287","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48090759","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}

Subjects: This work was conducted as a randomized controlled clinical trial, single blinded study in Tanta university pediatric nephrology outpatient clinic on 172 children with Steroid Sensitive Nephrotic Syndrome (SSNS). They were divided randomly into motivational nephrotic group as Group 1 and a control nephrotic group as Group 2. Their aged 2-10 years and mean disease duration 2.6 ± 2.1 and 2.3 ± 2.1 years in Group 1 and 2 respectively. Methods: Data was collected through a collection of biological, social and psychological data which were formulated, structured for 6 months where their ideas and expectations about disease, the compliance with treatment and follow up visits and frequency of relapses between the two studied patients groups were compared. Results: There was statistically significant decrease in the number of relapses in Group 1 when compared to Group 2. Regarding compliance with follow up visits, there was a highly significant increase in Group 1 compared to control group. There was statistically significant difference after application of psychosocial motivation regarding patients' ideas and expectations about the disease. Conclusions: The psychosocial motivation is significantly highly effective in improving the management of SSNS children, so we recommend all physicians to adopt psychosocial motivation to their nephritic children.","PeriodicalId":90594,"journal":{"name":"Journal of general practice (Los Angeles, Calif.)","volume":"5 1","pages":"1-7"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.4172/2329-9126.1000338","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70285182","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}
