6. Pathophysiological and Histomorphological Effects of One-Lung Ventilation in the Porcine Lung
Sammanfattning : Thoracic surgical procedures require partial or complete airway separation and the opportunity to exclude one lung from ventilation (one-lung ventilation, OLV). OLV is commonly associated with profound pathophysiological changes that may affect the postoperative outcome. LÄS MER
7. Risk-Adjustment for Swedish In-Hospital Trauma Mortality using International Classification of disease Injury Severity Score (ICISS) : issues with description and methods
Sammanfattning : IntroductionDifferent methods have been used to describe the epidemiology of trauma with varying results. Crude mortality outcome data differ significantly from risk-adjusted information. A previous standard method for risk-adjustment in trauma was the Injury Severity Score (ISS), although it has several shortcomings. LÄS MER
8. Premature Discharge from Intensive Care with Special Reference to Night-Time Discharge and Capacity Transfers
Sammanfattning : Objectives Intensive care is an expensive and limited resource, and when a demand supply mismatch between available beds and influx of patients occurs, one temporary measure is to discharge a patient to make room for the new admission. Sometimes the patient is discharged sooner from its original ICU than ideal; i.e. LÄS MER
9. Discrete-Event Simulation for Hospital Resource Planning : Possibilities and Requirements
Sammanfattning : The delivery of health care services has been under pressure due to limited funding and increasing demand. This has highlighted the need to increase not only the effectiveness but also the efficiency of health care delivery. LÄS MER
10. Towards Increased Use of Discrete-Event Simulation for Hospital Resource Planning
Sammanfattning : Health care systems in many countries are experiencing a growing demand while their resources remain limited. The discrepancy between demand and capacity creates many problems – long waiting times for treatment, overcrowding in hospital wards, high workload, etc. LÄS MER
