Patterns in continuous pulse oximetry data prior to pulseless electrical activity arrest in the general care setting.
This study鈥檚 objective was to understand if features derived from continuous pulse oximetry data can provide advanced warning of pulseless electrical activity arrest in general care inpatients. A retrospective analysis of SpO2 and pulse rate data derived from continuous pulse oximetry was performed for patients with electrical pulseless activity (n = 38) and control patients (n = 42). The pulseless electrical activity arrest group tended to have lower mean SpO2 and higher mean pulse rates over time intervals ranging from 1 minute to 1 hour. Several hours to the rescue event changes in variability were observed. Up to 20 minutes before rescue events, pulse rate features were significantly different from feature values for the preceding 30-minute interval. Similar results were found at 10 minutes before the event. These differences might be useful for predicting and preventing rescue events.

De-escalation of empiric antibiotics following negative cultures in hospitalized patients with pneumonia: rates and outcomes.
This study assessed antibiotic de-escalation practices across hospitals and their associations with outcomes in hospitalized patients diagnosed with pneumonia with negative cultures. The authors included 14,170 adults admitted with pneumonia in 2010-2015 to 164 US hospitals if they had negative blood and/or respiratory cultures and received both anti-MRSA and antipseudomonal agents other than quinolones. If empiric drugs were stopped on day 4 while continuing another antibiotic it was defined at de-escalation. Patients were propensity adjusted for de-escalation and compared on in-hospital 14-day mortality, late deterioration with ICU transfer, length-of-stay (LOS) and costs. Thirteen percent (1924 patients) had both initial empiric drugs stopped by hospital day 4. De-escalation rates at hospitals ranged from 2-35% and the established rate quartiles were not significantly associated with outcomes. Even at hospitals in the top quartile of de-escalation, the de-escalation rates were lower than 50%.

J Med Internet Res 2021 Apr 9;23(4):e24639. doi: 10.2196/24639.
This cross-sectional multicenter study examined reasons why health IT interventions were refused among patient-caregiver dyads of inpatients with cirrhosis. A total of 349 patient-caregiver dyads at three Virginia hospitals were approached of which 87 (25%) agreed to participate. Patients with cirrhosis admitted with gastrointestinal bleeding without opioid use or hepatic encephalopathy were more likely to participate than those with opioid or alcohol-related etiologies. Privacy was not a major factor in refusal, but caregiver and study burden were.

Identifying the role of inpatient portals to support health literacy: perspectives from patients and care team members.
Health literacy is a fundamental contributor to an individual's ability to self-manage their health and appropriately use health care services. Tools that positively impact health literacy therefore have potential to improve health outcomes. Inpatient portals are a tool that provides patients an opportunity to cultivate health literacy skills during hospitalization. This study investigated how inpatient portal use could impact attributes of health literacy.

Stakeholder perspectives in anticipation of sharing physicians' notes with parents of hospitalized children.
Researchers sought to elicit stakeholder perspectives on the anticipated benefits and challenges of sharing hospital physicians' admission and daily progress notes with parents at the bedside during their child's hospitalization and to identify strategies to aid implementation of inpatient note sharing. Focus groups with 34 stakeholders at a children's hospital were conducted. The researchers identified four anticipated benefits of sharing inpatient notes, five expected challenges, and three suggested implementation strategies.

Influence of bedspacing on outcomes of hospitalised medicine service patients: a retrospective cohort study.
The objective of this cohort study was to assess the association of bedspacing with patient-centered outcomes among United States patients admitted to general medicine services. The study compared internal medicine, family medicine and geriatric service patients who were bedspaced versus cohorted for the entirety of their hospital stay within three large, urban hospitals. Findings showed that bedspacing was associated with adverse patient-centered outcomes. Recommendations for future work included a need to confirm these findings, to understand mechanisms contributing to adverse outcomes, and to identify factors that mitigate these adverse effects in order to provide high-value, patient-centered care to hospitalized patients.

Designing inpatient portals to support patient agency and dynamic hospital experiences.
Inpatient portals could help patients engage in their hospital care, yet several design, usability, and adoption issues prevent this technology from fulfilling its potential. Despite patients having needs that extend beyond the scope of existing inpatient portals, we know less about how to design such portals that support them. To learn about effective designs, the investigators created three mid-fidelity prototypes representing novel approaches for inpatient portal design.

Safety assessment of a noninvasive respiratory protocol for adults with COVID-19.
As evidence emerged supporting noninvasive strategies for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)-related respiratory distress, the investigators implemented a noninvasive COVID-19 respiratory protocol (NCRP) that encouraged high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) and self-proning across our healthcare system. To assess safety, the investigators conducted a retrospective chart review evaluating mortality and other patient safety outcomes after implementation of the NCRP protocol (April 3, 2020, to April 15, 2020) for adult patients hospitalized with COVID-19, compared with preimplementation outcomes (March 15, 2020, to April 2, 2020).

Comparing two proximal measures of unrecognized clinical deterioration in children.
Critical deterioration events (CDEs) and emergency transfers (ETs) are two proximal measures to cardiopulmonary arrest, and both aim to evaluate how systems recognize and respond to clinical deterioration in children. This retrospective observational study sought to (1) characterize CDEs and ETs by timing, overlap, and intervention category, and (2) evaluate the performance of the watcher identification system and the pediatric early warning score (PEWS) to identify patients who experience these events.

HIV care cascade before and after hospitalization: impact of a multidisciplinary inpatient team in the US South.
Hospitalization represents an opportunity to re-engage out-of-care individuals, improve HIV outcomes, and reduce health disparities. The authors reviewed electronic health records of HIV-positive individuals hospitalized at an urban, public hospital between September 2013 and December 2015. They found that hospitalized patients with HIV had low rates of engagement in care, retention in care, and virologic suppression, though all three outcomes improved after hospitalization. A multidisciplinary transitions team improved care engagement and virologic suppression in those who received the intervention.

Inpatient hospital performance is associated with post-discharge sepsis mortality.
The objective of this study was to test the hypothesis that hospitals with high risk-adjusted inpatient sepsis mortality also have high post-discharge mortality, readmissions, and discharge to nursing homes. Sepsis hospitalization survivors among age-qualifying Medicare beneficiaries were followed for 180 days post-discharge; mortality, readmissions, and new admission to skilled nursing facilities were measured. Findings showed that hospitals with the highest risk-adjusted sepsis inpatient mortality also had higher post-discharge mortality and increased readmissions, suggesting that post-discharge complications were a modifiable risk that may be affected during inpatient care. Recommendations for future work include seeking to elucidate inpatient and healthcare practices that can reduce sepsis post-discharge complications.

Differences in length of stay and discharge destination among patients with substance use disorders: The effect of Substance Use Intervention Team (SUIT) consultation service.
Addiction medicine consultation services (ACS) may improve outcomes of hospitalized patients with substance use disorders (SUD). The aim of the study was to examine the difference in length of stay and the hazard ratio for a routine hospital discharge between SUD patients receiving and not receiving ACS. The authors concluded that the Substance Use Intervention Team (SUIT) consultation service was associated with a reduced length of stay and an increased hazard of a routine discharge.

Sleep patterns and quality among inpatients recovering from elective surgery: a mixed-method study.
This study examined sleep quality and barriers to sleep among adult hospital inpatients recovering from elective surgery. A quantitative survey was used followed by a qualitative phone interview with a subsample of participants. Of 113 eligible patients, 102 (90%) completed the survey. Less than half reported sleeping well the night prior to surgery and 93% reported less sleep in the hospital compared to home. A median of 5 (4-7) interruptions were reported each night. Patients with more than three interruptions were likely to report poor sleep compared with those who had three or less. Barriers to sleep included staff interruptions and roommate noise but not pain. Patients interviewed suggested improved timing and knowledge of interruptions or use of noise-reduction aids that would facilitate sleep.

Classification of injurious fall severity in hospitalized adults.
The purpose of this project was to refine the National Database of Nursing Quality Indicators Major injury classification to derive a valid and reliable categorization of the types and severities of Major inpatient fall-related injuries. Three subcategories were created: A - injuries that caused temporary functional impairment, major facial injury without internal injury, or disruption of a surgical wound; B - injuries that caused long-term functional impairment or had the potential risk of increased mortality; and C - injuries that had a well-established risk of mortality. These subcategories enhanced the National Database of Nursing Quality Indicators categorization. Using this project鈥檚 administration manual, trained personnel can classify injurious fall severity with excellent reliability.

Helping patients be better patients: a qualitative study of perceptions about inpatient portal use.
This qualitative study looked at perceptions about inpatient portal use and its impact on patient experience and the care process. The authors interviewed 120 patients and 433 care team members across a seven-hospital academic medical center that offers an inpatient portal to hospitalized patients. Care team members felt the inpatient portal helped patients be 鈥渂etter patients鈥 by improving their ability to be informed about their health and enabling them to be more involved in the care process. The care team members suggested portal use could be improved by addressing challenges with tablet administration, use of the patient education feature, and the functionality of the scheduling feature.

Missed nursing care during labor and birth and exclusive breast milk feeding during hospitalization for childbirth.
The purpose of this study was to determine associations between missed nursing care and nurse staffing during labor and birth, and exclusive breast milk feeding at hospital discharge. Exclusive breast milk feeding is a national quality indicator of inpatient maternity care. Nurses have substantial responsibility for direct support of infant feeding during the childbirth hospitalization. The investigators indicate that the results support exclusive breast milk feeding as a nurse-sensitive quality indicator.

Steroid variability in pediatric inpatient asthmatics: survey on provider preferences of dexamethasone versus prednisone.
This study looked at pediatric emergency department (ED) inpatient use of dexamethasone versus prednisone by providers for asthma treatment. A survey was distributed to providers who care for inpatient asthmatics. Ninety-two providers completed the survey. When patients received dexamethasone in the ED, 44% continued dexamethasone, 14% switched to prednisone, 2% stopped steroid use, and 40% said it depended on the circumstances. Hospitalists were significantly more likely to continue dexamethasone than pulmonologists (61% versus 15%). Switching to prednisone included factors such as severity of exacerbation (73%) and asthma history (47%). Just over half of providers (5f1%) felt uncomfortable using dexamethasone because of 鈥渕inimal data to support [its] use inpatient.鈥

The use of rapid response teams to reduce failure to rescue events: a systematic review.
This systematic review looked at studies on the evidence on the impact of rapid response teams (RRTs) on failure to rescue events. Articles from 2008 to 2018 were found on the impact of RRTs on failure to rescue events, including hospital mortality and in-hospital cardiac arrest events. Ten articles were identified for inclusion. Patient outcomes included hospital mortality (8 studies), in-hospital cardiac arrests (9 studies) and ICU transfer rates (5 studies). Moderate evidence was found linking the implementation of RRTs with decreased mortality and non-ICU cardiac arrest rates. Results linking RRTs to ICU transfer rates were inconclusive. Benefits of RRTs may take some time after implementation to be realized.

Hospital ward adaptation during the COVID-19 pandemic: a national survey of academic medical centers.
The authors sought to characterize inpatient adaptations to care for non-ICU COVID-19 patients. They found that the COVID-19 pandemic has required medical wards to rapidly adapt with expanding use of respiratory isolation units and use of technology emerging as critical approaches. Reports of unrecognized or delayed diagnoses highlight how such adaptations may produce potential adverse effects on care.

Best practices in implementing inpatient pediatric asthma pathways: a qualitative study.
The objective of this study was to identify potential best practices in pathway implementation. Building upon a previous observational study in which the researchers identified higher and lower performing children's hospitals based on hospital-level changes in asthma patient length of stay after implementation of a pathway, they conducted semi-structured interviews with a sample of healthcare providers involved in pathway implementation at these hospitals. They identified several potential best practices to support pathway implementation. They recommended that hospitals implementing pathways consider applying these strategies to ensure success in improving quality of asthma care for children.
