Patterns of surgical and nonsurgical hospital use in Michigan communities from 1980 through 1984.

Hospital discharge rates vary substantially among 60 communities in Michigan. (R2 = 90 percent and R2 = 85 percent of the systematic variance is explained by community effects for nonsurgical and surgical discharges, respectively.) The ranking of communities by discharge rates is stable over a five-year period (Spearman rho = 0.78 for nonsurgical discharges and 0.72 for surgical discharges). Surgical discharge rates decreased substantially (4 percent per year) over this time period, while nonsurgical rates showed no consistent pattern. Communities with exceptional discharge rates showed no substantial or significant regression toward the mean through the five-year study.

[Clinical-statistical analysis of patient admissions to the emergency services of the Bambino Gesù Hospital in Rome in the year 1992].

The Authors present relevant information concerning the activity carried on in 1992 in the Emergency Department of the Pediatric Hospital Bambino Gesù in Rome. Out of 34,328 cases arrived at the first aid station, only 21.17% of them needed an emergency service. This significant percentage suggests that the pediatric medical staff in service may be better employed for children who really need urgent care.

Basic statistics for clinical pathway evaluation.

Clinical pathways (using accepted benchmark goals) are among the most widespread tools used to enhance outcomes and contain costs within a constrained length of stay (LOS). The author describes the need for selection and use of designated basic statistics in the "definition and evaluation of the impact of clinical pathways in hospitals." The use of both the mean and median data on resource use and LOS information (to evaluate the effectiveness of various clinical pathways) is advised, as the influence of outlier data will thus be revealed. The ultimate goal of such evaluation is the identification of statistics that can be readily "understood by and communicated among providers and consumers of health care services." The correlation of statistical variables such as resource utilization (including ICU stays) and LOS, can reveal patterns not easily seen otherwise.

[Apical granulomas and apical root cysts of inflammatory origin. A statistical study on 328 cases observed at the Ambulatory Services of Odontostomatology of the Ospedale Martini, via Tofane 71, Turin].

328 cases of chronic tooth lesions (apical granulomas and bone cysts) were examined in the Dental Surgery of the Martini Hospital in Turin and many received a later check-up. The complete series was statistically analysed in terms of lesion frequency in the different areas of the dental arch, lesion diameters and the chances of successful surgical intervention.

Regional variations in need for and provision and use of child health services in England and Wales.

An analysis of indicators of the need for and provision and use of child health services in the 15 pre- 1974 hospital board regions in England and Wales showed that need and provisions were badly matched. There was a high degree of correlation between the indices within each of the three groups, indicating that a region with a small provision in one area of child health services would tend to have few resources in other areas also. Statistics on the use of services relate more to the provision of those services than to the need for them. Regions with large resources will justify these resources by claiming that their use statistics indicate needs, whereas they really indicate met demands. It is more important to identify demands and needs that are not being met.
