Effective documentation and coding in health care are crucial for patient care, safety, workflow improvement and accurate billing. This quality improvement study aimed to enhance History and Physical (H&P) note documentation and charge capture processes to integrate coding and billing aspects, capture authentic work, preserve the H&P's integrity and align H&P-related revenue with actual performance. A multidisciplinary team, including divisional leadership and specialists in documentation improvement, electronic health records, lean/six sigma methodology, a nocturnist and a senior-level physician coding auditor, initiated a quality improvement project.

This work represents a comprehensive study of the ground vibrational state of C-13 substituted methanol using very high-resolution far-infrared (FIR) and infrared (IR) Synchrotron Radiation spectra recorded with a very high signal-to-noise (S/N) ratio in the entire region from 40to5000cm, at the Canadian Light sources. High resolution combined with a high S/N ratio allowed the recording to be done with an unprecedented resolution of about 0.0017cm.

Background: Surgical site infections (SSIs) are the most common postoperative complications after cesarean section (CS), with increased mortality, prolonged hospital stays, and increased healthcare costs.
Objective: To systematically estimate the global incidence and identify the risk factors associated with SSI, focusing on the variation between high- and low-income countries.
Search Strategy And Selection Criteria: Observational studies reporting on the incidence of SSI after CS were systematically searched in PubMed, Embase and SCOPUS.
