High impact information on Hospitals, Rural

  • RESULTS: A significantly higher proportion of ideal candidates for the use of aspirin during hospital stay and at discharge, heparin, and IV nitroglycerin received these medications in urban hospitals, and a lower proportion of similar patients received these medications in rural hospitals compared with the patients in semirural hospitals (P<.001) [4].
  • CONCLUSIONS: tPA can be administered safely with good outcome at community and rural hospitals [5].
  • Fifteen papers reported evaluations of oncology outreach programmes, tele-oncology programmes and rural hospital initiatives [6].
  • Rural hospitals' experience with the National Practitioner Data Bank [7].

Gene context of Hospitals, Rural

  • After control for multiple factors, younger patients, more severely ill patients (OR 2.02, 95% CI 1.36 to 3.01), and patients treated in rural hospitals (OR 1.80, 95% CI 0.99 to 3.26) were more likely to receive IV tPA, whereas black patients were less likely (OR 0.54, 95% CI 0.31 to 0.95) [15].
  • The effect of PPS on rural hospitals is of widespread interest [16].
  • Poison center data accuracy: a comparison of rural hospital chart data with the TESS database. Toxic Exposure Surveillance System [17].
  • A review of the most recent 2-month ER-OPD experience showed that in a small rural hospital, a majority (62%) of the patients had an illness or injury of a minor, nonserious degree which could be handled primarily by a Physician's Assistant [18].
