To compare incidence of atrial arrhythmia, duration of care, and major complications after cardiac surgery between patients who received etomidate and those who received other induction agents.
This study aims to describe the magnitude of hospital costs among patients undergoing elective colectomy, cholecystectomy, and pancreatectomy, determine whether these costs relate as expected to duration of care, patient case-mix severity and comorbidities, and whether risk-adjusted costs vary significantly by hospital.
The increasing complexity and duration of care have resulted in an epidemic of caregiver burden.
The influence of duration of care was posited by Avlonitis et al., who observed that, in a prolonged rat model of brain death (15 min vs 5 h), longer duration of care was associated with better oxygenation and reduced post-transplant PVR despite greater exposure to inflammatory cytokines [3].
The mean duration of care was 5.2 years.
The duration of care provided by nephrologists varied from 1 12 months in these studies.
Similarly, the number and quality of nephrology visits within the indicated duration of care were unavailable.
The category of the duration of care was not associated with IF-Long scores.
Duration of care was defined as an individual patient's length of follow-up in months.
The duration of care team meetings and network meetings was not included in the assessment.
