Book excerpt: Excerpt from Medical Record, Vol. 40: A Weekly Journal of Medicine and Surgery; July 4, 1891-December 26, 1891 The patient was a phy sician, aged twenty nine, for six years a resident of Panama, where he contracted a chronic dysentery. He came north in May, 1889, went to Germany, and in Vienna had a severe recurrence of his disease. He returned to Baltimore in December. Soon after, an irregular fever began, with occasional chilly sensations, sweats, loss of flesh, and sallow complex ion. Signs of abscess of the liver developing, the liver was aspirated, incised, and two large abscess cavities found in the right lobe. In the thick, creamy pus Dr. Osler found amoebae in large numbers. The organisms could be found in the pus removed at the dressings up to the time of the patient's death, two weeks later. In this case diarrhoea was a marked feature. Tenesmus was rarely present; the frequency of the stools from four to twelve in twenty-iour hours. Their character varied much. Sometimes there were large brownish evacuations with little or no mucus more frequently three to four ounces were passed at a time, and scattered through the brown ish liquid mucus blood and small whitish sloughs could be seen. Ou several occasions the stools seemed to be made up of a gelatinous mucus streaked with blood, and twice large grayish sloughs were found. The amoeba were rarely found in the brownish liquid stools. In the mucus they were more frequent, but they were met with in large numbers only in the small grayish fragments, por tions no doubt of sloughs which were found in variable numbers in almost every mucoid stool. D1. Osler goes on to describe the amoebae, from which it appears that they resembled those of others, though not reaching the maximum size, measuring in his case ten to twenty micro millimetres in diameter.

This book was released on 2014-04-01 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This User’s Guide is intended to support the design, implementation, analysis, interpretation, and quality evaluation of registries created to increase understanding of patient outcomes. For the purposes of this guide, a patient registry is an organized system that uses observational study methods to collect uniform data (clinical and other) to evaluate specified outcomes for a population defined by a particular disease, condition, or exposure, and that serves one or more predetermined scientific, clinical, or policy purposes. A registry database is a file (or files) derived from the registry. Although registries can serve many purposes, this guide focuses on registries created for one or more of the following purposes: to describe the natural history of disease, to determine clinical effectiveness or cost-effectiveness of health care products and services, to measure or monitor safety and harm, and/or to measure quality of care. Registries are classified according to how their populations are defined. For example, product registries include patients who have been exposed to biopharmaceutical products or medical devices. Health services registries consist of patients who have had a common procedure, clinical encounter, or hospitalization. Disease or condition registries are defined by patients having the same diagnosis, such as cystic fibrosis or heart failure. The User’s Guide was created by researchers affiliated with AHRQ’s Effective Health Care Program, particularly those who participated in AHRQ’s DEcIDE (Developing Evidence to Inform Decisions About Effectiveness) program. Chapters were subject to multiple internal and external independent reviews.

This book was released on 2015-12-29 with total page 473 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Getting the right diagnosis is a key aspect of health care - it provides an explanation of a patient's health problem and informs subsequent health care decisions. The diagnostic process is a complex, collaborative activity that involves clinical reasoning and information gathering to determine a patient's health problem. According to Improving Diagnosis in Health Care, diagnostic errors-inaccurate or delayed diagnoses-persist throughout all settings of care and continue to harm an unacceptable number of patients. It is likely that most people will experience at least one diagnostic error in their lifetime, sometimes with devastating consequences. Diagnostic errors may cause harm to patients by preventing or delaying appropriate treatment, providing unnecessary or harmful treatment, or resulting in psychological or financial repercussions. The committee concluded that improving the diagnostic process is not only possible, but also represents a moral, professional, and public health imperative. Improving Diagnosis in Health Care, a continuation of the landmark Institute of Medicine reports To Err Is Human (2000) and Crossing the Quality Chasm (2001), finds that diagnosis-and, in particular, the occurrence of diagnostic errorsâ€"has been largely unappreciated in efforts to improve the quality and safety of health care. Without a dedicated focus on improving diagnosis, diagnostic errors will likely worsen as the delivery of health care and the diagnostic process continue to increase in complexity. Just as the diagnostic process is a collaborative activity, improving diagnosis will require collaboration and a widespread commitment to change among health care professionals, health care organizations, patients and their families, researchers, and policy makers. The recommendations of Improving Diagnosis in Health Care contribute to the growing momentum for change in this crucial area of health care quality and safety.
