Factors Influencing Virtual Reality as a Distraction Tool for Venipuncture in Children: Observational Pilot Feasibility Study

Factors Influencing Virtual Reality as a Distraction Tool for Venipuncture in Children: Observational Pilot Feasibility Study

Participants and parents (1 parent per child) were selected from all pediatric inpatients aged 5‐12 years, in a large tertiary hospital in the United Kingdom. All ethnic groups were eligible for participation. However, considering the unavailability of interpreters for various languages at the time of the COVID-19 pandemic, only English-speaking children and their families were selected.

Exploring the Impact of In Basket Metrics on the Adoption of a New Electronic Health Record System Among Specialists in a Tertiary Hospital in Alberta: Descriptive Study

Exploring the Impact of In Basket Metrics on the Adoption of a New Electronic Health Record System Among Specialists in a Tertiary Hospital in Alberta: Descriptive Study

We identified this as an issue as many part-time specialists might have ≤4 appointments per week; for example, if they were on ward duties, they would be managing only inpatients during that time. Although they interacted with the EHR system, no data would be recorded for these metrics. Since inpatient data were not studied, the true impact of EHR system use might be underestimated.

eHealth Literacy and Patient Portal Use and Attitudes: Cross-sectional Observational Study

eHealth Literacy and Patient Portal Use and Attitudes: Cross-sectional Observational Study

This study aimed to characterize how age, self-reported race, and e HL were associated with portal awareness, use, and perceptions among adult inpatients at UChicago Medicine. Inclusion criteria were being 18 years or older, speaking English, and being admitted to a general medicine service. Patients who lacked decisional capacity due to altered mental status or some other conditions were excluded. The recruitment occurred during the daytime for eligible patients at any time during their hospitalization.

Impact of a Clinical Text–Based Fall Prediction Model on Preventing Extended Hospital Stays for Elderly Inpatients: Model Development and Performance Evaluation

Impact of a Clinical Text–Based Fall Prediction Model on Preventing Extended Hospital Stays for Elderly Inpatients: Model Development and Performance Evaluation

Therefore, in this study, the subject demographic was narrowed down to elderly inpatients, and we estimated the extended length of hospital stay caused by falls using the propensity score matching method. In the United States, it has been reported that patients injured by falls during hospitalization had an average stay extension of 6-12 days, incurring additional hospitalization costs of US $13,316 [2,12-14].
