Inter-hospital Critical Care Transport: Implementation of a Novel Policy and Review of the Literature

Andrea M Pakula, Jannet Gannon, Lisa Mundy, Kathleen Berns, Anita Stoltenberg and Beth A Ballinger

Article Type: Literature Review | First Published: January 30, 2016

The decision to transport a critically ill patient is based on the need for diagnostic or therapeutic procedures that are not available within the intensive care unit. Most commonly this type of transport is within the home facility and is for procedures such as imaging or for operative intervention. Theoretically, intra-hospital transfers are safer than the transfers to another institution, as transfers outside of the home facility tend to require the coordination of extensive cardio-pulmonary ...

Miriam Theilla RN, Jonathan Cohen, Pierre Singer, Chedva Liebman and Ilya Kagan

Article Type: Research Article | First Published: March 25, 2016

Jim A Youssef, Sue Lynn Myhre and B. Sonny Bal

Article Type: Original Article | First Published: March 28, 2016

When non operative actions for degenerative spinal disorders fall flat, surgical intervention frequently becomes the popular choice of treatment. Although the class of pathology matters, the surgical operation will generally include an arthrodesis procedure. The gravity of a successful initial fusion surgery is intensified not only by the growing number of arthrodesis procedures, but also by the rising costs for revisal operations. Additionally, fusion success appears to have an impact on patien...
