Patient safety and adverse events

QUESTION

Medicare has begun linking quality to payments. One of the ways that they do this is through their hospital readmission reduction program that targets quality of care to specific conditions or procedures suc as acute, myocardial infarction, heart failure, coronary artery, bypass graft surgery, chronic obstructive, pulmonary disease, pneumonia, and elective, primary total hip replacement. They collect this information in a Medicare Compare database or the CMS Patient Safety and Adverse Events Composite, which allows consumers to compare healthcare providers and organizations in their local area.

  • Access the CMS Patient Safety and Adverse Events Compositewebpage. Locate a hospital of interest to you and its nearest competitor for this hospital. Review and create a spreadsheet to compare data in the following areas: PSI 3, 6, 8, 10 & 13.
  • Upload your spreadsheet and list three things you learned. How could the IHI Safety Huddle Toolkitbe helpful in preventing these adverse events?

Population Health in Saudi Arabia 

Leaders must stay abreast of healthcare trends in order to best serve the population they are supporting. In recent decades, disease threats in Saudi Arabia have shifted from communicable diseases to non-communicable diseases. The high prevalence of unhealthy lifestyles and cardiovascular disease risk factors in the adult Saudi population support the need for enhanced CQI programs in the population health arena. Saudi Vision 2030 has a major focus on healthcare such as primary disease prevention and improving lifestyles.

Using the Saudi Digital Library, locate and read three scholarly journal articles on the role of utilizing CQI initiatives to improve population health in Saudi Arabia.

Based on your readings, prepare a PowerPoint presentation describing your approach to implementing CQI for a specific population health need, such as hypertension, diabetes, preventative screenings, etc. Explain how as a leader you would engage key stakeholders. Analyze how the key objectives of the Health Sector Transformation Program within the Vision Realization Program of Saudi Vision 2030 supports population health.

  1. Connectionist model

     Any of a class of theories hypothesizing that knowledge is encoded by the connections among representations stored in the brain rather than in the representations themselves. Connectionist models suggest that knowledge is distributed rather than being localized and that it is retrieved through spreading activation among connections. The connectionist model concept has been extended to artificial intelligence, particularly to its neural network models of problem solving. With the growing amount of accessible data and ever stronger computing power, connectionist models gain considerable momentum in recent years incorporating AI. This new approach seems to solve many problems in symbolic AI but raises many new issues at the same time
