Using An Electronic Reminder To Improve Physician Practices At Yale-New Haven Hospital, Alicia Inés Arbaje Jan 2000

Using An Electronic Reminder To Improve Physician Practices At Yale-New Haven Hospital, Alicia Inés Arbaje

Yale Medicine Thesis Digital Library

The inappropriate use of diphenhydramine (Benadryl™) can lead to iatrogenic complications, such as cognitive decline. Electronic reminders can be effective in implementing clinical guidelines, providing decision support to clinicians, and reducing medical errors. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of an electronic reminder screen on physicians' routine use of diphenhydramine as a pretreatment prior to blood transfusions, and to assess their attitudes regarding this reminder. The researchers reviewed diphenhydramine use in adult inpatients before, immediately after, and one year after implementation of the reminder screen. A total of 752 transfusion episodes (467 patients) were reviewed, with …


Severity Of Illness And Prognosis Of Liver Transplant Candidates At Yale, Arvind Venkat Jan 2000

Severity Of Illness And Prognosis Of Liver Transplant Candidates At Yale, Arvind Venkat

Yale Medicine Thesis Digital Library

The increasing number of patients with end-stage liver disease (ESLD) listed for transplantation has forced physicians to examine the disparities in waiting times (WT) for this procedure across the US. The debate has centered upon whether physicians within regions with longer WT, such as that of Yale, are listing patients prematurely compared to regions with shorter WT . Using regional variations in WT, per this argument, to analyze access to organs is therefore misleading. To determine the appropriateness of listing practices at Yale, the authors applied stratification guidelines for liver transplant candidates adopted by the United Network for Organ Sharing …


Default In A General Equilibrium Model With Incomplete Markets, Pradeep Dubey, John Geanakoplos, Martin Shubik Jan 2000

Default In A General Equilibrium Model With Incomplete Markets, Pradeep Dubey, John Geanakoplos, Martin Shubik

Cowles Foundation Discussion Papers

We extend the standard model of general equilibrium with incomplete markets (GEI) to allow for default. The equilibrating variables include aggregate default levels, as well as prices of assets and commodities. Default can be either strategic, or due to ill-fortune. It can be caused by events directly affecting the borrower, or indirectly as part of a chain reaction in which a borrower cannot repay because he himself has not been repaid. Each asset is defined by its promises A , the penalties lambda for default, and the limitations Q on its sale. The model is thus named GE ( A …


Information Acquisition And Efficient Mechanism Design, Dirk Bergemann, Juuso Välimäki Jan 2000

Information Acquisition And Efficient Mechanism Design, Dirk Bergemann, Juuso Välimäki

Cowles Foundation Discussion Papers

We consider a general mechanism design setting where each agent can acquire (covert) information before participating in the mechanism. The central question is whether a mechanism exists which provides the efficient incentives for information acquisition ex-ante and implements the efficient allocation conditional on the private information ex-post. It is shown that in every private value environment the Vickrey-Groves-Clark mechanism guarantees both ex-ante as well as ex-post efficiency. In contract, with common values, ex-ante and ex-post efficiency cannot be reconciled in general. Sufficient conditions in terms of sub- and supermodularity are provided when (all) ex-post efficient mechanisms lead to private under- …


Bargaining And Markets: Complexity And The Walrasian Outcome, Hamid Sabourian Jan 2000

Bargaining And Markets: Complexity And The Walrasian Outcome, Hamid Sabourian

Cowles Foundation Discussion Papers

Rubinstein and Wolinsky (1990b) consider a simple decentralized market in which agents either meet randomly or choose their partners volunatarily and bargain over the terms on which they are willing to trade. Intuition suggests that if there are no transaction costs, the outcome of this matching and bargaining game should be the unique competitive equilibrium. This does not happen. In fact, Rubinstein and Wolinsky show that any price can be sustained as a sequential equilibrium of this game. In this paper, I consider Rubinstein and Wolinsky’s model and show that if the complexity costs of implementing strategies enter players’ preferences …

Models Of Medical Malpractice In Jewish Law, Brian Howard Galbut Jan 2000

Models Of Medical Malpractice In Jewish Law, Brian Howard Galbut

Yale Medicine Thesis Digital Library

Medical malpractice is largely a product of the modem era. Consequently, one might suppose that ancient sources have little to add to any meaningful discussion of the topic. Yet, numerous models and precedents directly or indirectly applicable to malpractice surface in the vast body of traditional Jewish literature of the last two millennia. These sources can lend profound insight for the physician - and others - grappling with issues of moral and legal responsibilities related to care of patients and malpractice. This thesis will first catalogue the various types of immunities, and qualifications for those immunities, granted by Jewish law …
