Postpartum Depression Screening Postpartum Depression Evaluation Plan
Postpartum depression affects as many as a third of all women, but minority and low-income mothers are particularly susceptible. For this reason, a number of initiatives have been implemented in the United States and other countries to try and screen mothers for this condition, with the hope of improving the health and quality of life of these families. Despite these efforts, strong scientific evidence supporting the efficacy of these screening initiatives is lacking. Towards the goal of providing such evidence, this essay details an evaluation plan for a postpartum depression screening initiative implemented at a public health clinic.
Predicting the Future of Medical Health Records
With the advent of digital databases used to store vast amounts of medical information, health histories, and vital statistics for millions of patients across America, a concept known on the local level as electronic medical recordkeeping (EMR), and collectively forming the electronic health record (EHR), the delivery of healthcare services has undergone a rapid transformation during the last two decades. The traditional clipboard and paper chart carried by physicians and nurses, which held an often indecipherable maze of pencil-etched recordings made throughout a patient's stay, has since been replaced in many modern healthcare facilities by the iPad and other handheld computer tablet devices. Banks of unwieldy filing cabinets, each storing hundreds of individual patient files, have vanished in the private practices and doctor's offices of America's healthcare providers, with a simple server system allowing for the storage of millions of files on a single hard drive. Through the implementation of advanced software systems, diagnostic tools have now become intuitive, scanning through a patient's entire archived medical record and searching for connections that may ordinarily escape the consideration of a single doctor handling dozens of cases concurrently.
