Article Synopsis
- "Revolving door patients" are people who keep going back to the hospital because they aren't getting better, often due to not taking their medicine or not having enough support.
- The idea of a Mobile Delivery Program (MDP) is proposed, where healthcare workers bring medicines and help directly to these patients' homes to make it easier for them to stick to their treatment.
- This program aims to help patients avoid going back to the hospital repeatedly, improve their overall health, and save a lot of money that is currently spent on hospital visits and other related costs.
Background: Pregnant women and their babies face significant risks from three vaccine-preventable diseases: COVID-19, influenza and pertussis. However, despite these vaccines' proven safety and effectiveness, uptake during pregnancy remains low.
Methods: We conducted a systematic review (PROSPERO CRD42023399488; January 2012-December 2022 following PRISMA guidelines) of interventions to increase COVID-19/influenza/pertussis vaccination in pregnancy.
