Hospital care services for digestive diseases in Italy: The first quantitative assessment

The scarcity of human and structural resources for specialized gastroenterology care is a problem in many Western countries. Data regarding the resources for Italian Gastroenterology, so far lacking, have been thus searched and evaluated. Based on an agreement protocol between the Italian Association of Hospital Gastroenterologists and Endoscopists (AIGO) and the Ministry of Health, national data regarding all Institutions providing gastroenterological care were analysed. Hospital beds in Gastroenterology units are presented by region, regimen of stay and per million inhabitants as of January 2011.Association of Hospital Gastroenterologists and Endoscopists also performed a survey of gastroenterology units in all Italian regions regarding number of ordinary/day hospital beds and the number of staff gastroenterologists.The Ministry data showed a total of 174 Gastronterology Units in Italy, a total of 2062 hospital beds for the discipline, for a proportion of 34.2 beds per million inhabitants.The Association of Hospital Gastroenterologists and Endoscopists survey showed a total of 1425 gastroenterologists in Italy.These data should represent a key reference for appropriate planning of specialized care for digestive diseases.     

Guidelines for prevention of hospital acquired infections

These guidelines, written for clinicians, contains evidence-based recommendations for the prevention of hospital acquired infections Hospital acquired infections are a major cause of mortality and morbidity and provide challenge to clinicians. Measures of infection control include identifying patients at risk of nosocomial infections, observing hand hygiene, following standard precautions to reduce transmission and strategies to reduce VAP, CR-BSI, CAUTI. Environmental factors and architectural lay out also need to be emphasized upon. Infection prevention in special subsets of patients - burns patients, include identifying sources of organism, identification of organisms, isolation if required, antibiotic prophylaxis to be used selectively, early removal of necrotic tissue, prevention of tetanus, early nutrition and surveillance. Immunodeficient and Transplant recipients are at a higher risk of opportunistic infections. The post tranplant timetable is divided into three time periods for determining risk of infections. Room ventilation, cleaning and decontamination, protective clothing with care regarding food requires special consideration. Monitoring and Surveillance are prioritized depending upon the needs. Designated infection control teams should supervise the process and help in collection and compilation of data. Antibiotic Stewardship Recommendations include constituting a team, close coordination between teams, audit, formulary restriction, de-escalation, optimizing dosing, active use of information technology among other measure. The recommendations in these guidelines are intended to support, and not replace, good clinical judgment. The recommendations are rated by a letter that indicates the strength of the recommendation and a Roman numeral that indicates the quality of evidence supporting the recommendation, so that readers can ascertain how best to apply the recommendations in their practice environments.

医院信息系统在提高传染病疫情报告质量中的作用

目的：探讨应用医院信息系统-传染病报告子系统进行传染病疫情报告对于提高报告质量的作用。方法随机抽取2012年度（应用系统报告前）、2013年度（应用系统报告后）1～12月各240份医院传染病报告卡数据,采用SPSS19.0软件对报告卡完整率、准确率和及时率进行统计分析。结果使用医院信息系统进行传染病疫情报告后,抽查的报告卡迟报率呈下降趋势（χ2＝20.46,P＝0.0000）,2012年为14.58％,2013年为2.92％;抽查的传染病疫情报告卡质量均有不同程度提高,其中完整率2012年为82.92％,2013年为92.92％,两者比较差异有统计学意义（χ2＝11.30, P ＝0.0008）;准确率2012年为87.92％,2013年为95.00％,两者比较差异有统计学意义（χ2＝7.71,P＝0.0055）;及时率2012年为85.42％,2013年为97.08％,两者比较差异有统计学意义（χ2＝20.46,P＝0.0000）。结论利用医院信息系统进行传染病疫情报告能有效提高报告卡的完整率、准确率和及时率,保证报告的质量。
