The approaches were: (1) a medical record intervention that notified the clinician of the patient's increased fall risk and directed him/her to an evidence-based fall prevention practice guideline located on the Electronic Medical Record (EMR); (2) both the medical record intervention and a prompt to refer the patient to a Geriatric Assessment Clinic and provide feedback to the referring physician; and (3) a community-based care management intervention that included assessment by a case manager and referral for visual screening, physical therapy evaluations, or geriatric assessment clinic as deemed appropriate. A control group of patients received usual care from their physicians.<br />

<h3>Readiness for Bioterrorist Events</h3>

|
|
<strong>Partner:</strong> Weill Medical College of Cornell University<br />
|
|
<strong>Description:</strong> A Points of Distribution (POD) simulation model previously developed by Weill for the IDSRN was refined and has been disseminated to local, State and Federal governments. The model includes an outpatient prophylaxis component and a hospital surge capacity component. The refinement included adding real time data from actual anthrax cases into the surge capacity component of the model. <br />
|
|
<strong>Period:</strong> 04/02-03/03<br />
|
|
<strong>Funding:</strong> $164,989</p>

|
<p><strong>Predicting Health Care Use Resulting from Bioterrorism: Tools to Aid State Planning</strong><br />
|
|
<strong>Partner:</strong> Emory Center on Health Outcomes and Quality<br />
|
|
<strong>Description:</strong> Terrorism-induced psychological and clinical sequelae have a great potential to overburden health care systems. There is some evidence that even in less-affected geographic areas, people will experience stress symptoms that may persist for some time. Emory examined the large-scale impact on the health care system of terrorism and anthrax events in the fall of 2001. Stress-related medical resource use patterns in inpatient, outpatient and emergency room settings before, during and after these events were analyzed for persons insured by Aetna across the United States. The study accounted for seasonality, geographic distance from the events, short- and long-term impact of the events, and impact on special populations. The goal of the study was to permit improvement in future bioterrorism resource allocation planning activities. <br />
|
|
<strong>Period:</strong> 10/02-09/03<br />
|
|
<strong>Funding:</strong> $269,707</p>
|
|
<p><strong>A Systematic Regional Inventory of Critical Resources to Respond to Bioterrorism</strong><br />
|
|
<strong>Partner:</strong> Abt Associates <br />
|
|
<strong>Description:</strong> A Web-based data repository, accompanied by a "process" manual, was developed to serve as a supply inventory to improve preparedness for a bioterrorist threat. The Web-accessible relational database is available for others who wish to adapt it for their own needs. The geographic area of interest from which data were drawn to populate the supply inventory is the six-county Geisinger catchment area in east central Pennsylvania.<br />
|
|
<strong>Period:</strong> 10/02-12/03<br />
|
|
<strong>Funding:</strong> $477,772</p>
|
|
<p><strong>AHRQ-sponsored Workbook for Sharing Regional Bioterrorist Preparedness Tools</strong><br />
|
|
<strong>Partner:</strong> Research Triangle Institute <br />
|
|
<strong>Description:</strong> Using Intermountain Health Care and the University of Pennsylvania Medical Center as examples of integrated delivery systems, Research Triangle Institute (RTI) assessed the health system requirement and interorganizational relationships necessary for regional bioterrorism preparedness. The assessment examined the effects of regional care models and their impact on resource allocation and capacity in the event of a potential bioterrorist event, and the full spectrum of expected health care needs following a potential bioterrorist event, including hospital, home care, and long-term care needs.<br />
|
|
<strong>Period:</strong> 10/02-9/04<br />
|
|
<strong>Funding:</strong> $485,877</p>
|
|
<p><strong>Rocky Mountain Regional Health Emergency Assistance Line and Triage Hub (HEALTH) Model</strong><br />
|
|
<strong>Partner:</strong> Denver Health<br />
|
|
<strong>Description:</strong> Denver Health assessed requirements, specifications and resources to develop a public health emergency contact center in Colorado and Hawaii, with exportability to seven other states. The model addresses integration with public health agencies and efficient management of patient demand surges during and after a public health emergency such as a bioterrorist event.<br />
|
|
<strong>Period:</strong> 10/02-10/03<br />
|
|
<strong>Funding:</strong> $267,056</p>
|
|
<p><strong>Rocky Mountain Regional Care Model for Bioterrorism Preparedness</strong><br />
|
|
<strong>Partner:</strong> Denver Health<br />
|
|
<strong>Description:</strong> Denver Health assessed surge capacity and short- and long-term health system needs for regional bioterrorism preparedness. The study examined effects of regional care models and their impact on resource allocation and capacity in the event of a potential bioterrorist event; the effect of a potential bioterrorist event on hospital and health system's costs, outcomes, and staffing; facility characteristics needed to establish isolation or quarantine units for a region; and characteristics of the model that are exportable to regional, state and local policymakers.<br />
|
|
<strong>Period:</strong> 10/02-10/03<br />
|
|
<strong>Funding:</strong> $452,386</p>
|
|
<p><strong>Developing Tools for State-wide Planning and Response to Bioterrorist Attacks</strong><br />
|
|
<strong>Partner:</strong> Weill Medical College of Cornell University <br />
|
|
<strong>Description:</strong> The goal of the project was to expand and implement New York Presbyterian Healthcare System's existing surge capacity information system (HERIS, Hospital Emergency Response Information System) as a regional model for New York State. The information system estimates staffing requirements, cost and outcomes of a bioterrorist event affecting NYPHS and establishes appropriate data systems and readiness measures. Weill developed risk communication messages and dissemination plans for NYPHS staff, New York metro area health care providers, and the public.<br />
