BANGALORE: After private and corporate hospitals, now government, missionary and taluka hospitals and primary health centres in the state are coming forward to apply for accreditation by the National Accreditation Board of Hospitals and Healthcare Providers (NABH) facilitating quality care and safety to patients. Compared to Karnataka, other states like Gujarat, Kerala, Uttar Pradesh and Tamil Nadu are doing fairly well in getting accreditation for government hospitals and PHCs. Government officials in Karnataka are now talking to the Quality Council of India (QCI) for the same. "The state government that does not have even a single NABH accredited government hospital is now keen on the accreditation of hospitals and it has also identified a hospital in Belguam for the accreditation," said Dr Thuppil Venkatesh, principal advisor, QCI. Hospitals'Conclave The recently held nationallevel conclave, to take the NABH to the next level and make it a source for value ...

One area of confusion concerning Cloud computing is its relationship with outsourcing: ultimately IT service delivery from the Cloud is outsourcing because it is the delivery of shared, multi-tenanted IT services by external parties for the consumption of organisations of all sizes in any geography. However, for those organisations already outsourcing aspects of their IT, the Cloud delivery model raises operational questions about how best to transition to this lower cost capability and which areas offer the most appropriate point from which to begin the migration. And what indeed should the CIO expect from an outsource agreement as this delivery model becomes more mainstream? An area we explored in “ Cloud Computing – A step-change for IT services”, and that is now coming more sharply into focus, is the role of the service integrator. This is the ability of the service provider to assist with the integration of SaaS solutions and on-premise software implementations to create mixe...

NABH Accreditation for Hospitals National Accreditation Board for Hospitals & Healthcare Providers (NABH) is a part of the Board of Quality Council of India. NABH was setup to establish and operate an accreditation programme for healthcare and wellness centers in India. In this article, we look at the process for obtaining NABH Accreditation for hospitals in India. NABH Accreditation NABH accreditation is a way for hospitals in India to implement standards and procedures on par with global benchmarks. NABH is a member of the International Society for Quality In Health Care (ISQUA), an international accreditation body in the areas of healthcare. As a member of ISQUA, NABH has joined a handful of countries that match and authenticate healthcare services to global standards. Thus, a hospital having NABH Accreditation delivers services on par with global standard and serves as a boost to medical tourism in India. One can start with the following link: Hospital Standa...

Does the cloud work for health care?   The cloud is here and from a technology perspective it is fairly mature. However, from a vertical perspective - health care in this case - it is not always an easy technology to plug in. Health care organizations are treading slowly and testing the waters with some non-PHI applications such as email. There are a number of considerations before taking the leap into the cloud. Like any major technology change in an organization, due diligence is critical to help you define your requirements, understand your options and ensure all expectations are met. Surprises are never good. If this isn’t your normal procedure, it should be! The approach to cloud computing is no different than approaching any other technology you are considering for the organization. So let’s look at some of the pros and cons you need to consider when building your requirements and justification for moving your application delivery out of your own data center ...

The South African Department of Health has issued a statement that all returning travelers from South Africa to Zambia and travelers from Zambia to South Africa will now require proof of yellow fever vaccination. All in-transit passengers between the two destinations, irrespective of the time period in transit, will also require proof of yellow fever vaccination. Over the last several months there has been a lot of back and forth regarding this new policy. Often times the translation of the new policy has confused travelers like you. So what is the new policy stating? In addition, also as of October 1, 2011 travelers coming from Zambia into South Africa will need a Yellow Fever certificate (World Health Organization card) to enter the country. So in other words, South Africa’s Department of Health will need to see visual proof you are vaccinated for yellow fever (unless you’re in possession of a valid waiver certificate). Al...

If you do decide to have liposuction, there are quite a few areas of your body where you could choose to have it done. One area where many people have liposuction is their thighs. This includes both saddlebags and inner thighs; areas where excess fat often gets stored. A lot of people also choose their hips and their ‘love handles’ as areas to have liposuction, because weight commonly gathers in these areas. Exercise and diet aren’t always effective at shifting the fat and so if these ‘normal’ solutions haven’t worked for you, you could consider liposuction as an alternative option.  The abdomen is another place you might have liposuction, such as if you have been unable to shift excess fat on your stomach in another way.you are supposed to have a layer of fat on your body and so some will remain following surgery, but your liposuction surgeon will sit down with you to work out how much to remove and where. If you have excess fat on your ...

Total joint arthroplasty is widely performed in patients of all races with severe osteoarthritis to relieve pain and improve joint function and mobility. Although several studies have suggested that racial minority patients are less likely to undergo joint replacement surgery little is known about the quality of arthroplasty care that African Americans receive as compared to Caucasians.  Using data from the Medicare Provider Analysis and Review (MedPAR) files between 2002 and 2005, which contain information regarding hospitalization for Medicare beneficiaries, Cai and colleagues profiled US hospitals' quality of care. Quality was based on the rate of complications including sepsis, hemorrhage, pulmonary embolism, deep vein thrombosis and severe wound infection, as well as the number of deaths, experienced in the 90 days after total   joint replacement surgery   To test for a racial difference in access to high-, intermediate- and low-quality hospitals, the autho...

Hip replacement is major surgery and, for the first few days, you will want to take it easy. However, it is important that you start some activities immediately to offset the effects of the anesthetic, help the healing, and keep blood clots from forming in your leg veins. Your doctor and physical and occupational therapists can give you specific instructions on wound care, pain control, diet, and exercise. They should also indicate how much weight you can put on your affected leg. Pain management is important in your early recovery. Although pain after surgery is quite variable and not entirely predictable, it does need to be controlled with medication. Initially, you may get pain medication through an IV (intravenous) tube that you can control to get the amount of medication you need. It is easier to prevent pain than to control it and you do not have to worry about becoming addicted to the medication; after a day or two, injections or pills will replace the IV tube. Besides the...

Health and safety training is an important component of childcare. By enforcing proper and proactive first aid training, childcare programs can help ensure that children remain safe and healthy while in their care  It is recommended that this training include resuscitation skills such as management of blocked airways and rescue breathing but not necessarily Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR). The need for cardiac resuscitation is rare in childcare settings, occurring only when children have specific problems such as cardiac arrhythmia or drowning. First-aid training for childcare providers should include guidance on treating abrasions and lacerations, burns, puncture wounds from splinters, and eye injuries. Childcare providers also should be prepared to treat the following injuries and health care needs: Bleeding, including nosebleeds Poisoning Convulsions or non convulsive seizures Sprains or fractures Head injuries Dental and mouth injuries Heat or cold-re...

Joint pain, primarily from arthritis, affects thousands of adults across the country. According to the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 454,652 total knee replacements were performed in 2004, and in the same year, add to that number 232,857 total hip replacements, 41,934 total shoulder replacements, and 12,055 other joint replacements. Started in 2005, the Total Joint Replacement Program is an all-inclusive program for patients having total hip, total knee, or total shoulder replacement. Once a patient enters the program, he or she receives step-by-step guidance throughout the procedure—from preadmission, to the admission office and stay, and after outpatient discharge and therapy. The program is offered at Johnson City Medical Center, Indian Path Medical Center in Kingsport, and Johnston Memorial Hospital in Abingdon, Virginia. The only qualification for the entering is a need for total joint replacement. There is no charge for participating. Patients learn about...

Orthopedic implants in the United States represent a $20 billion per year industry. Seventy-five percent of the orthopedic implant industry consists of devices that are expired or soon to be expired IP (intellectual property). Typically, when a device has expired IP, manufacturers or their competitors begin to sell it as a value proposition. The reason we allow a company to have patent protection is to reward them for their innovation for a period of time. The orthopedic industry has been successful in never allowing their implants to behave in a normal market pattern. They always have been able to charge full price without letting normal market efficiencies take effect.   The industry points out that they have to pay for R&D and regulatory approvals for their products and so higher prices are necessary to support these ever-increasing expenses. Pharma companies spend about 20 percent of revenues on R&D. Hip and knee companies spend 6 percent. Every drug that...

Men, women and children fell ill to fever, nausea, pain and bleeding. Death was ubiquitous; each fatality marked by a ringing church bell. The knells soon became deafening. It was 1793 and yellow fever had arrived in Philadelphia. By the time it disappeared that autumn, an estimated 10 percent of the approximately 55,000 city inhabitants were dead. Yellow fever , so named because it causes jaundice, is transmitted by mosquitoes and is common in tropical climates. Scientists believe the disease originated in Africa and was brought to South America through the slave trade. It made its way north to Philadelphia’s port with boats of refugees fleeing political turmoil in the Caribbean. There was also a high concentration of mosquitoes in the summer of 1793, providing ideal conditions for the disease to spread. Armed guards lined the roads leading out of the city, making sure fleeing residents had some place to go. If they did not, they were forced to return to their homes. Th...

A yellow vaccine works by presenting a foreign antigen to the immune system in order to evoke an immune response. You should talk to your family doctor at least two months in advance of your travel to refer you to a suitable travel clinic for proper vaccination. Ideally, you should have a yellow fever vaccine administered at least 10 days before your travel to the country of various  hospitals like orthopedic hospitals If you have any allergy to any medication. It is important to tell about the type of allergy and the related agents in medications. If you are pregnant or planning on becoming pregnant. If you are breast-feeding. If you have had organ transplantation or serious illnesses like cancer or cardiac issues. If you have a weak immune system or serious illness with a fever. Besides being equipped with proper vaccination, as a traveler, you should equip yourself with enough of mosquito repellents to protect from the mosquito bites. Yellow fever can be deadly. It is a kind o...

As we enter our sixth decade of total hip replacement and our fifth decade of total knee replacement, the orthopedic community can take pride in the substantial improvements that have been made in these operations which produce validated improvements in patients’ lives. The incidence of two of the most feared complications of  joint replacement  infection and thromboembolic disease, has been substantially reduced. In addition, the incidence of instability in total hip replacement has decreased significantly, and the length of hospital stays has decreased remarkably for hip and knee replacement. Despite these improvements, there is a real interest by patients for “less invasive, faster recovery” surgery modifications. If one looks at the development of urologic, bariatric and colorectal surgery, all have reduced the use of open surgical procedures in favor of less invasive — and in many cases, more accurate — scope-assisted procedures. In our own...

Before you have a major joint replacement surgery , here are five things you need to know. 1. They don't last forever While artificial joints are more durable than they used to be, the typical patient who gets one today will need another in about 20 years, says Dr. William Maloney, chair of orthopedic surgery at Stanford University School of Medicine. 17 Print Most private insurers and Medicare cover the procedure, but even so, out-of-pocket costs can easily hit $3,000 -- much more if you go out of network. To put off your date with the scalpel, ask your doctor about physical therapy, anti-inflammatory drug treatment, and cortisone shots, which may buy a couple more years for someone with arthritis. And switch to low-impact activities such as swimming rather than jogging, which can lengthen any joint's life span. 2. Expertise is paramount Studies show that patients of surgeons who do lots of hip and knee replacements tend to have f...

By Kelly April, Tribune reporter August 2, 2011 When the Cook County Bureau of Health Services discontinued non-emergency joint replacements more than two years ago, it left many poor people disabled, in pain, unable to work and with few options for surgery. But Operation Walk Chicago , a not-for-profit organization run by two local doctors, is trying to meet that need by offering free joint replacements. Whether it will be enough is the question. April Randle, 47, is excited to ride her bike again. The West Garfield Park woman is one of eight people who received new joints in March through the nonprofit group, in partnership with Norwegian American Hospital in Humboldt Park . After years of suffering from a disabling hip condition that rendered her stationary and forced her to leave her job, Randle is free of hip pain. She is eager to get moving and return to work. Arthritis is the leading cause of disability in the United States, according to the Centers for...
