Design of a medical record review study on the incidence and preventability of adverse events requiring a higher level of care in Belgian hospitals Universiteit Hasselt KU Leuven

Annemie VLAYEN, Kristel MARQUET, Ward SCHROOTEN, Arthur VLEUGELS, Johan HELLINGS, Elke DE TROY, Frank Weekers, Neree CLAES
BACKGROUND: Adverse events are unintended patient injuries that arise from healthcare management resulting in disability, prolonged hospital stay or death. Adverse events that require intensive care admission imply a considerable financial burden to the healthcare system. The epidemiology of adverse events in Belgian hospitals has never been assessed systematically. FINDINGS: A multistage retrospective review study of patients requiring a ...

A multicenter record review of in-hospital adverse drug events requiring a higher level of care Universiteit Hasselt KU Leuven

Kristel MARQUET, Neree CLAES, Elke DE TROY, Gaby KOX, Martijn DROOGMANS, Arthur VLEUGELS
Objective: Adverse drug events (ADEs) are a worldwide concern, particularly when leading to a higher level of care. This study defines a higher level of care as an unplanned (re)admission to an intensive care unit or an intervention by a Medical Emergency Team. The objectives are to describe the incidence and preventability of ADEs leading to a higher level of care, to assess the types of drug involved, and to identify the risk factors. Methods: ...

Open-source electronic health record systems for low-resource settings: systematic review Instituut voor Tropische Geneeskunde

Assel Syzdykova, Andre Malta, Maria Zolfo, Ermias Diro, Jose Luis Oliveira

Background: Despite the great impact of information and communication technologies on clinical practice and on the quality of health services, this trend has been almost exclusive to developed countries, whereas countries with poor resources suffer from many economic and social issues that have hindered the real benefits of electronic health (eHealth) tools. As a component of eHealth systems, electronic health records (EHRs) play a ...

Safety and Effectiveness of Vedolizumab in Patients with Steroid- Refractory Gastrointestinal Acute Graft-versus-Host Disease: A Retrospective Record Review KU Leuven

Johan Maertens
Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) can be curative in patients with hematologic malignancies but carries a significant risk of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). There are no standard treatments for steroid-refractory (SR) gastrointestinal (GI) acute GVHD (aGVHD). This multicenter, international, retrospective medical record review aimed to evaluate the off-label use of vedolizumab, a gut-selective immunomodulator, for ...

Adverse events in acute hospitals: Methodological aspects and results of a record review in patients with an unplanned transfer to a higher level of care Universiteit Hasselt

Kristel MARQUET
The objectives of this study were to determine the incidence and preventability of adverse events requiring an unplanned higher level of care - defined as an unplanned transfer to the intensive care unit or an in-hospital medical emergency team intervention - and to assess the type and the level of harm of each adverse event. A three-stage retrospective review process of screening, record review and consensus judgment was performed in six ...
