The current lack of collaborative care is contributing to higher mortality rates and longer hospital stays in the United States. A method for improving collaboration among health professionals for patients with congestive heart failure, the Clinical Integration Model (CIM), was implemented. The CIM utilized a process tool called the CareGraph to prioritize care for the interdisciplinary team. The CareGraph was used to focus communication and treatment strategies of health professionals on the patient rather than the discipline or specific task. Hospitals who used the collaborative model demonstrated shorter lengths of stay and cost per case.

Introduction: Follicular lymphoma (FL) is a common type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma that is incurable but often follows an indolent course. While survival is improving thanks to advances in diagnosis, supportive care, and new therapies, understanding outcomes and their impact on overall survival is still limited. There are few studies on FL in Brazil, so this study aims to evaluate the patient's profile, morbidity and mortality treated by the Brazilian national health service (SUS) and evaluate risk factors associated with treatment failure.
