The three datasets (i.e., Transfer-Encounters, Transfer-Outcomes, Transfer-Locations) provide the number of hospital transfers and Major Diagnostic Categories (MDCs). The Transfer-Encounters Dataset provides transfer counts by patient characteristics (i.e., Race/Ethnicity, Language Group, Expected Payer, Age Group and Assigned Sex at Birth) for each MDC. The Transfer-Outcomes shows the transfer outcomes (i.e., Median Length of Stay, Percent of Leaving Against Medical Advice and Percent of Inpatient Death) by MDC. The Transfer-Location dataset shows the locations of Acute Care Hospitals which received at least 25 transfers by MDC.

This dataset provides the adjusted length of stay, type of care, discharges with valid charges, charges by hospital, licensure of bed, and Major Diagnostic Category (MDC).

The dataset contains risk-adjusted mortality rates, and number of deaths and cases for 6 medical conditions treated (Acute Stroke, Acute Myocardial Infarction, Heart Failure, Gastrointestinal Hemorrhage, Hip Fracture and Pneumonia) and 6 procedures performed (Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Repair, Carotid Endarterectomy, Craniotomy, Esophageal Resection, Pancreatic Resection, Percutaneous Coronary Intervention) in California hospitals. The 2014 and 2015 IMIs were generated using AHRQ Version 5.0, while the 2012 and 2013 IMIs were generated using AHRQ Version 4.5. The differences in the statistical method employed and inclusion and exclusion criteria using different versions can lead to different results. Users should not compare trends of mortality rates over time. However, many hospitals showed consistent performance over years; “better” performing hospitals may perform better and “worse” performing hospitals may perform worse consistently across years. This dataset does not include conditions treated or procedures performed in outpatient settings.

The dataset contains counts for the Top Five inpatient diagnosis groups based on Major Diagnostic Categories (MDCs) from the Patient Discharge Data (PDD) for each California hospital. Each MDC corresponds to a major organ system (e.g., Respiratory System, Circulatory System, Digestive System) rather than a specific disease (e.g., cancer, sepsis). The MDCs are also generally associated with a particular medical specialty. Therefore, the MDCs can be used to help identify what types of health care specialists are needed at each facility. For instance, a facility with “Circulatory System, Disease and Disorders” as one of their Top Five MDC diagnosis groups is more likely to have a greater need for cardiac specialists. The data will be updated on an annual basis.

Attrition of nurses in the US Healthcare system is at an all-time high. It is a major area of focus, especially for hospitals.

This dataset contains employee and company data useful for supervised ML, unsupervised ML, and analytics. Attrition - whether an employee left or not - is included and can be used as the target variable.

The data is synthetic and based on the IBM Watson dataset for attrition. Employee roles and departments were changed to reflect the healthcare domain. Also, known outcomes for some employees were changed to help increase the performance of ML models.

Here's an app I use as a demo based on this dataset and an ML classification model.

The data for this assignment come from the Hospital Compare web site (http://hospitalcompare.hhs.gov)run by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. The purpose of the web site is to provide data and information about the quality of care at over 4,000 Medicare-certied hospitals in the U.S. This dataset essentially covers all major U.S. hospitals. This dataset is used for a variety of purposes, including determining whether hospitals should be ned for not providing high quality care to patients (see http://goo.gl/jAXFX for some background on this particular topic).

This dataset provides a historical view of proposed long term care, and individual and small group major medical/hospital rate increases starting in January 2005.

This study is to investigate the effect of public reporting of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) care on the people’s choice of hospitals. A cross-sectional study was conducted using an online questionnaire. The survey questions include the awareness and usage of public reporting, and the impact of the public reporting on the choice of hospitals. The difference in responses before and after acquiring information about public reporting was compared using multinomial logistic regression. Following a thorough validity check, 740 respondents are included in the final survey data set. The average age of respondents was 38.7 years (SD: 11.8), with 75.3% being female. Age distribution was as follows: 26.3% in their 20s, 23.5% in their 30s, 30.0% in their 40s, and 20.2% in their 50s. Most participants (73.7%) lived in metropolitan areas, and 75.1% had a university degree or higher. Before providing information about public reporting of AMI care, 62.8% of respondents selected ‘nearby hospitals’ as the best option for AMI patients, followed by ‘famous hospitals’, ‘usual hospital’, and ‘hospitals with good rates’. Non-health-related occupation shows significantly changed results of hospital choice between before and after obtaining public reporting information (p

We are working to develop a comprehensive dataset of surgical tools based on specialities, with a hierarchical structure ��� speciality, pack, set and tool. We belive that this dataset can be useful for computer vision and deep learning research into surgical tool tracking, management and surgical training and audit. We have therefore created an initial dataset of surgical tool (instrument and implant) images, captured using under different lighting conditions and with different backgrounds. We captured RGB images of surgical tools using a DSLR camera and webcam on site in a major hospital under realistic conditions and with the surgical tools currently in use. Image backgrounds in our initial dataset were essentially flat colours, even though different colour backgrounds were used. As we further developed our dataset, we will try to include much greater occlusions, illumination changes, and the presence of blood, tissue and smoke in the images which would be more reflective of crowded, messy, real-world conditions. Illumination sources included natural light ��� direct sunlight and shaded light ��� LED, halogen and fluorescent lighting, and this accurately reflected the illumination working conditions within the hospital. Distances of the surgical tools to the camera to the object ranged from 60 to 150 cms., and the average class size was 74 images. Images captured included individual object images as well as cluttered, clustered and occluded objects. Our initial focus was on Orthopaedics and General Surgery, two out of the 14 surgical specialities. We selected these specialities since general surgery instruments are the most commonly used tools across all surgeries and provide instrument volume, while orthopaedics provides variety and complexity given the wide range of procedures, instruments and implants used in orthopaedic surgery. We will add other specialities as we develop this dataset, to reflect the complexities inherent in each of the surgical specialities. This dataset was designed to offer a large variety of tools, arranged hierarchically to reflect how surgical tools are organised in real-world conditions.

Reducing mortality among COVID-19 cases is a major challenge for most health systems worldwide. Estimating the risk of preexisting comorbidities on COVID-19 mortality may promote the importance of targeting at-risk populations to improve survival through primary and secondary prevention. This study was conducted to explore the contribution of exposure to some chronic diseases on the mortality of COVID-19. This was a case control study. The data were collected from the records of all patients hospitalised at Bafoussam Regional Hospital (BRH) from March 2020 to December 2021. A grid was used to extract data on patient history, case management and outcome of hospitalised patients. We estimated the frequency of each common chronic disease and assessed the association between suffering from all and each chronic disease (Diabetes or/and Hypertension, immunodeficiency condition, obesity, tuberculosis, chronic kidney disease) and fatal outcome of hospitalised patients by estimating crude and adjusted odd ratios and their corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CI) using time to symptom onset and hospital admission up to three days, age range 65 years and above, health professional worker and married status as confounder’s factors. Of 645 included patients, 120(20.23%) deaths were recorded. Among these 645 patients, 262(40.62%) were males, 128(19.84%) aged 65 years and above. The mean length of stay was 11.07. On admission, 204 (31.62%) patients presented at least one chronic disease. The most common chronic disease were hypertension (HBP) 73(11.32%), followed by diabetes + HBP 62 (9.61%), by diabetes 55(8.53%) and Immunodeficiency condition 14(2.17%). Diabetes and Diabetes + HBP were associated with a higher risk of death respectively aOR = 2.71[95%CI = 1.19–6.18] and aOR = 2.07[95% CI = 1.01–4.23] but HBP did not significantly increased the risk of death. These results suggest that health authorities should prioritize these specific group to adopt primary and secondary preventive interventions against SARS-CoV-2 infection.
