The survey results showed that Part 2A orders have primarily been used for tuberculosis cases, with 29 person orders issued since 2010. Implementation of these orders was often difficult due to issues with resources, interagency coordination, and non-compliant patients. Police involvement was needed in obtaining 58% of patients but raised issues around protective equipment, response times, and level of force allowed. Outcomes were mixed, with some orders achieving public health aims but others seeing limited protection due to case selection and lack of enforcement powers.

Telemedicine: The Future of Outpatient Therapy?
Lawrence Eron
John A. Burns School of Medicine, University of Hawaii, Kaiser Moanalua Medical Center, Honolulu
Early hospital discharge of acutely infected patients to received outpatient parenteral antimicrobial therapy
has been shown to be safe and effective. However, concerns over safety, potential litigation, and anxieties of
the patient and family about not receiving professional care have limited the use of this approach. Telemedicine
may overcome these barriers by allowing health care providers to monitor and communicate with acutely
infected patients from a remote medical center via a home computer station transmitting audio, video, and
vital signs data. Potential benefits of telemedicine include significant cost savings and faster convalescence,
because patients at home may feel more comfortable and actively involved in their treatment than patients
in the hospital. Clinical studies have shown that telemedicine is safe and cost-effective, compared with hospital
treatment, in chronically ill and acutely infected patients. More studies are needed to further establish the
widespread and increasing practice of telemedicine, which may represent the future of medicine.
Early hospital discharge to use of outpatient parenteral
antimicrobial therapy (OPAT) has been shown to be
both safe and effective for the treatment of acutely in-
fected patients [1–5]. Conditions frequently treated in
this manner include community-acquired pneumonia
(CAP), skin and soft-tissue infection, urinary tract in-
fection, and bacterial endocarditis. However, OPAT
alone is not recommended for some patients with severe
illness or complications, including those who must be
monitored several times per day because of comorbid-
ities and/or low performance scores [6]. Furthermore,
the decision to discharge a patient to OPAT or to dis-
charge a patient who has been switched to oral anti-
biotics may be delayed because of persistent fever or
simply for a day of observation [4, 7, 8]. Routine in-
hospital observation after the or ...

An infection occurring in a patient in a hospital or other health care facility in whom the infection was not present or incubating at the time of admission. This includes infection acquired in hospital but appearing after discharge, and also occupational infection among staff of the facility.

Malpractice Verdict
• A man arrived at the ER with severe neck pain
and numbness in his arms and legs. A doctor
diagnosed his condition as neck strain and
released the man from the hospital. A few hours
later, the man became completely paralyzed from

had no duty to interfere with an individual
who left the ED without telling anyone and
who refused treatment.

Failure to Admit
• Physician was found negligent in failing to
hospitalize the patient or failing to inform her
of the serious nature of her illness. The trial
court found that had the patient been

2015 Preparedness Summit - New York City Emergency Patient SearchTamer Hadi
The New York City Emergency Patient Search (NYCEPS) is a web-based tool that allows simple queries to get real-time encounter data from a Health Information Exchange (HIE). After an emergency, NYCEPS may be used to facilitate family reunification by searching all regional emergency rooms rather than families/friends having to call many hospitals and reporting someone missing. Therefore reducing the burden on hospitals and responder resources and helping the public to find loved ones as quickly as possible.
Malpractice should not allowed in the field of medicine because your are dealing with humans life.
The malpractice is due to lack of doctors knowledge, uninteresting the sensitive cases, not using a guidelines.
The most type and common error in malpractice is the medication error and could put the patient's life risky.
Medical record is important why because you follow up the patients and will help you to guide and known the status the patient whether he or she improving or not.
There are several types of medical record: by using paper or documented book or by using electronic such as computers and so on.
If you are recording the patient information the patient will trust you and so happy because you still remember him or her information and this is good for you.

Feeding plate for a newborn with Cleft Palate.pptxSatvikaPrasad
A feeding plate is a prosthetic device used for newborns with a cleft palate to assist in feeding and improve nutrition intake. From a prosthodontic perspective, this plate acts as a barrier between the oral and nasal cavities, facilitating effective sucking and swallowing by providing a more normal anatomical structure. It helps to prevent milk from entering the nasal passage, thereby reducing the risk of aspiration and enhancing the infant's ability to feed efficiently. The feeding plate also aids in the development of the oral muscles and can contribute to better growth and weight gain. Its custom fabrication and proper fitting by a prosthodontist are crucial for ensuring comfort and functionality, as well as for minimizing potential complications. Early intervention with a feeding plate can significantly improve the quality of life for both the infant and the parents.

resources, inter agency coordination, accountability / legislative??]Coordinating the ambulance and the police to go to pick up the patient
Difficulties locating the patient, a lot of police time, an 11 day delay between order and locating patient in one case
Difficulties in getting the patient to hospital: who police ambulance, PHE consultant, how to coordinate ambulance and police at same time, use of private car in several cases, police said that the order only allowed them to pick up the case from an address and not the street and so refused to pick up patient and bring him in.
The police not able to encourage the patient to come in
Costs to health service to accommodate patient for long duration, cost of guard outside room
Who would pay for the guard: hospital or PCT
Guiard not obtained in time for the arrival of patient
Bed not available in the hospital patient diagnosed in so he had to go to another hospital with no experience and where they were scared of the infection control implications. Very reluctant to take patient.
Ambulance in theory happy to come and pick up patient planned before but when phoned for the ambulance they refused to come as patients life not in danger.
Security at hospital refused to send a guard to sit outside the room in the hospital
On arrival at patients house by EHOs he ran away and had to be searched for by police the next day.
Drug and alcohol use by patient and friends, aggressive behaviour to EHOs when attempting to admit to hospital
LA agreed to pay for the security guard
Aggression of patient to staff on the ward
Lack of medicine compliance making him a risk of MDR TB on the ward to staff
Easier once the patient was transferred to a rehab ward where the patient was familiar
The patient absconded from the ward so many times that they resorted to home management. But that failed too as no ability to physically keep the patient in one place.
Funding for guard an issue
Abusive patient was issued with an ASBO
Patient absconded and not able to get back
Patient requiring cigarettes outside: guard to accompany
Chief executive of hospital wrote to the LA saying that they would not have a bed for the patient after he absconded a few times.
Patient absconded for 3 days before they had a 24 security guard in place
As we were not able to enforce that the patient stay it was lucky that he came back from absconding voluntarily
Financial and logistic of hospital bed
Should be to protect others from infection risk but what was written was quite different
Removal of suspected MDR/xdr case to the hosp to start treatment and remove infection risk
To quarantine until completed treatment (7 orders)
To prevent patient disappearing underground and et up alcohol and other services as well as risk free DOT
To prevent patient spreading infection to others
Detain and stabilise chaotic life so that could take treatment x3
Obviously infection but extra points were interesting

n many ways gaining the Part 2A Order is the easy part. Enlisting help of others to enact the restrictions or requirements may be harder. And gaining the order does not resolve the problems/circumstances which might be hampering compliance, and these will still need to be addressed subsequently. Additionally the attendant sanctions are not really a concern for many of these cases, who do not have money to pay a fine anyway, and/or who are not unduly concerned by the prospect of a prison spell
