An analysis of anger in relation to clinical dentistry.

This article discussed anger and its cause. Experience and observation of human behavior denote valid points in the four concepts considered. The introduction of the RET has added the belief system and interpretation of events to the classic approaches. This concept adds further insight into why people become angry or, more accurately, allow themselves to be moved by anger. With this new knowledge should come an awareness of the need to converse with and know patients better and to prevent undesirable anger relationships from occurring. Dentists are able to modify the patient's belief system, if it is erroneous, by educating them toward more realistic expectations. This makes it possible to add to the patient's happiness by reducing conflictual relationships in the acceptance of reality.

Best practices in Web-based courses: generational differences across undergraduate and graduate nursing students.

The demand for online courses is greatly increasing across all levels of the curriculum in higher education. With this change in teaching and learning strategies comes the need for quality control to determine best practices in online learning communities. This study examines the differences in student perceptions of the use of technology, educational practices, and outcomes between undergraduate and graduate students enrolled in Web-based courses. The multisite study uses the benchmarking process and the Flashlight Program Evaluating Educational Uses of the Web in Nursing survey instrument to study best practices and examine generational differences between the two groups of students. The outcomes of the study establish benchmarks for quality improvement in online learning. The results support the educational model for online learning and postulates about generational differences for future study.

[Relations between anesthetists and general practitioners or pediatricians. Results of a cross sectional study among 2281 physicians with private practice].

OBJECTIVE: To assess the relationship of anaesthetiologists (Anaes) with general practitioners (GP) and paediatricians (Paed), possessors of the medical files of children scheduled to undergo ambulatory anaesthesia and participating in postoperative surveillance. STUDY DESIGN: Cross-sectional prospective survey. PERSONS: GP and Paed treating children admitted in September 1994 at the paediatric clinic of the University hospital of Tours for ambulatory surgery. METHOD: Questionnaire including 11 items circulated to 2,181 GP and 100 Paed of the centre of France. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION: Replies were obtained from 1,053 GP (48%) and 64 Paed (64%). The experience of Anaesth in paediatric anaesthesia was the least important criterion for the choice of the clinic (for 67% of Paed and 44% of GP). The rate of contacts of Anaesth with GP and Paed was low (23% of GP and 38% of Paed). Informations concerning anaesthesia (26% of GP and 42% of Paed), or its complications (8% of GP and 8% of Paed) were scarce. The rules of ambulatory anaesthesia were better known by Paed (56%) than by GP (34%), unlike those for autotransfusion (45% of GP and 23% of Paed). A majority of GP (82%) and Paed (73%) would appreciate an anaesthetic report. Most of GP (86%) and Paed (83%) were in favour of more informations, mainly through continuing medical education, on these problems.

Improving information access for public health professionals.

Fundamental to our protection against biological weapons and the detection of disease outbreaks is the need to strengthen our surveillance systems. Improved electronic communications between local, state, and federal public health agencies provide a way for health officials to share information on unusual disease outbreaks and provide important health alert information. This article describes a model of a partnership between a regional medical library of the National Library of Medicine, a school of public health, and federally qualified community health centers. This project upgraded technology and provided public health professional training on Internet information and resources for local public health agencies.

The quality of communication between hospitals and general practitioners: an assessment.

The objective of this study was to assess the quality of communications between hospitals and general practitioners (GPs). The proportion of medical records in which the patient's general practitioner (GP) was identified, the accuracy of medications recorded in the discharge summary, the proportion of GPs who received discharge summaries, and the timeliness of receipt of discharge summaries were all evaluated. Discussions were held with all stakeholders, the literature was reviewed and GPs were surveyed to identify potential measures of quality. These were then trialled to assess their utility and practicability. Timeliness, issues that required follow-up and treatment provided in hospital were of greatest importance to general practitioners. The GP's name was recorded in 88% of audited records. Few inaccuracies were detected in the medications recorded in the discharge summaries, and GPs received 77% of discharge summaries. Methods similar to those used in this study might be broadly applied to improve the quality of discharge communication throughout Australia.

Clinicians' contributions to healthcare management.

Primary tasks for clinical directors are to disseminate information to colleagues, provide feedback to senior professional managers, and to play key roles in strategic planning and resource allocation in health services. These tasks are seen to reduce barriers between clinicians and management. The application of clinical directorates across healthcare organisations is inconsistent and ambiguous. When set clear guidelines, clinical directors can impact on the decision-making process within senior management. As further applications of clinical directors in management occur, development of the role is required to realise the potential.

Health service structures, management and professional practice: beyond clinical management.

At the heart of the operation of the health system is the relationship between managers and the various professionals who provide clinical services. While there is an inherent conflict between these two groups, this conflict has been avoided in the past by the managers playing a supporting rather than a controlling role. However, the current demands of cost-control are placing managers and professionals into direct conflict; a situation that many organisations are addressing by putting clinicians into management roles. This measure has had initial success in some situations, but it is argued that this success will be limited because clinical departments are not able to address many of the broader issues that affect the performance of health services. This paper proposes an alternative approach that will enable these broader issues to be effectively addressed, and also reduce the structural conflict.

Managing hospital quality performance in two related areas: patient care and customer service.

The Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organization's new emphasis on continuous quality improvement provides hospitals with an opportunity to enhance both customer service as well as patient care. Both are expected by patients and delivered by providers. Patient care is the core product; customer service augments it by adding value and providing the opportunity for a competitive advantage. This article discusses issues for administrators to consider before including customer service as a component of continuous quality improvement and then presents methods for bringing about change.
