rehospitalization

There have been no follow-up reports of relapse or rehospitalization.

Rehospitalization as a single outcome measure has too many problems to be used in isolation from other measures.

It is rehospitalization and bureaucracy that eat up our mental health care budgets.

The law is aimed at a small group who have a history of rehospitalization that is associated with going off medications.

All groups had similar outcomes in the study's main measurement: a combination of major in-hospital heart problems, rehospitalization within the next six months, or death.

The consequence often is premature relapse and costly rehospitalization.

"Relapse, rehospitalization and disruption of essential treatment are some of the consequences."

The rate of rehospitalization for those patients was more than 11 percent higher than for other patients.

Its core finding was that there were no statistically significant differences between randomly assigned court-ordered and control groups by any outcome measure, including rehospitalization.

A study of hospitalized asthma patients similarly found that both factors were related to rehospitalization [ 43].

Had BAD halucinations and gross hematuria requiring rehospitalization for another week.

They become trapped in a cycle of relapse, brief rehospitalization, discharge, noncompliance with medication and relapse again.

The available clinical information can determine if these sequential visits are unrelated, an expected follow-up, complications from a previous treatment, or an unexpected revisit or rehospitalization.

Our review of more than 300 research studies shows that compared with vaginal birth, Caesarean sections increase women's risks of infection, rehospitalization and poor birth experience.

Typical Stay Costs $20,000 "The program is aimed at preventing rehospitalization of patients," Dr. DiFerdinando said.

"Should she do poorly after discharge and require rehospitalization," Dr. Cournos said, "the decision about medication can and, in my opinion, should be reconsidered at that time."

The primary composite endpoint is the occurrence of cardiovascular death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, or rehospitalization for an acute coronary syndrome (ACS) at one year.

Treatment can be expensive; due to limitations in health care coverage, patients hospitalized with anorexia nervosa may be discharged while still underweight, resulting in relapse and rehospitalization.

The primary efficacy endpoint was a composite of death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, resuscitated sudden cardiac death or emergent rehospitalization for worsening symptomatic myocardial ischemia.

Analyzing "primary end points" (death, cardiac arrest, rehospitalization, etc.) after 26 weeks, the researchers concluded "intercessory prayer had no significant effect on medical outcomes after hospitalization in a coronary care unit."

In temporarily removing patients from a stressful home or residence situtation by offering them up to 28 days in a crisis residence an exacerbation of their symptoms with accompanying rehospitalization is often avoided.

While the number of psychiatric patients in state hospitals has declined, this does not take into account "revolving-door" patients who are stabilized in the hospital, discharged and then require rehospitalization, sometimes several times a year.

Compeer statistics show only a 10.5 percent rehospitalization rate for clients who were hospitalized prior to referral; no Compeer client became homeless in the last six months of 1992, and there was only one suicide.

Dr. Fairweather found that rehospitalization of patients with serious and persistent mental illness is less likely (i.e., "community tenure" is longer) when the people live and work together as a group, rather than individually.

This turns out to be convenient because if the patient requires rehospitalization, the Creedmoor safety police can transport the patient to Creedmoor admitting instead of having to send the crisis outreach team outside the grounds.
