Surgical Scheduling Errors During Manual Data Transfer.

Qual Manag Health Care

January 2025

Author Affiliations: Source Healthcare, Santa Monica, California.

Background And Objectives: Retrospective studies examining errors within a surgical scheduling setting do not fully represent the effects of human error involved in transcribing critical patient health information (PHI). These errors can negatively impact patient care and reduce workplace efficiency due to insurance claim denials and potential sentinel events. Previous reports underscore the burden physicians face with prior authorizations which may lead to serious adverse events or the abandonment of treatment due to these delays.

Background: The non-ablative 1940-nm laser induces controlled thermal damage at superficial depths without ablating the epidermis.

Objective: We evaluated a new 1940-nm fractional diode laser for improving pigmentation and skin texture.

Materials And Methods: Participants with mild to severe benign pigmented lesions received up to three laser treatments.

Effect of reserve protection level and governance on tree cover loss and gain.

Conserv Biol

January 2025

School of Geography, Planning, and Spatial Sciences, University of Tasmania, Hobart, Tasmania, Australia.

Terrestrial protected areas are essential for biodiversity conservation, yet it is not fully understood when and how different types of protected areas are most effective in achieving specific conservation objectives. We assessed the impact of reserves on tree cover loss and gain through a case study in Tasmania, Australia. We considered varying protection levels (strict, where human activities are restricted, and multiple use) and governance types (public and private).

Background: Complicated wrist amputation caused by severe trauma poses a real challenge for orthopedic and hand surgeons. This study aimed to evaluate a procedure of ulnoradial-metacarpal reconstruction as a rescue option in this challenging situation.

Methods: In total, 12 patients with complicated wrist amputation induced by serious injury were selected from 2015 to 2020 and followed up for 1∼6 years at a level 1 trauma center.

We combine atomistic and continuum simulation methods to study the defect chemistry of a model grain boundary in UO. Using atomistic methods, we calculate the formation energies of oxygen interstitials, uranium vacancies, and hole polarons (U ions) across the Σ5(310)[001] symmetric tilt grain boundary. This information is then used as input in a continuum model of point-defect concentrations at the grain boundary and in its vicinity, taking into account electrostatic (space-charge) effects.
