Abstract

An elderly man was admitted to inpatient care after a check-up with a gerontologist, stating that he had no will to continue living and showing other depressive symptoms. The gerontologist then ponders whether the will to live is prognostic for depression, specifically in elderly patients. The report aims to determine whether the will to live, measured by the Will-to-Live (WTL) scale, can predict depressive symptoms (DS) emerging in elderly patients. A literature search was conducted on three databases: PubMed, Cochrane, and EBSCOhost. Of the searches, two articles were selected for further critical appraisal using the criteria provided by the University of Oxford Centre of Evidence-Based Medicine. first study, using the WTL Scale to quantify WTL and the Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS) to measure DS, showed that WTL can predict DS but not vice versa with moderate negative correlation (r = -0.49 p<0.001). The second study analyzes the temporal relationship further, showing that WTL still has a negative correlation with DS (measured by modified GDS) (r=-0.4, p<0.05) when assessed in the same time frame but shows little to no correlation when used as a predictor for DS after a 1-year interval from the initial assessment (r= 0.14, p<0.05). The Will-To-Live Scale has the potential to be a more practical tool in predicting depressive symptoms in gerontology settings as compared to usual methods after further validation studies.

Abstract

An elderly man came to the Emergency Room with labored breathing with a history of prior tuberculosis infection and BCG vaccination when he was an infant. He was diagnosed with tuberculosis reinfection with negative microbiology result. This study aims to see whether revaccination of BCG vaccination will positively impact suppressing the rate of tuberculosis infection. A literature search was conducted on three databases: PubMed, Cochrane, and EBSCOhost. Of the searches, three articles were selected for further critical appraisal using the criteria provided by the University of Oxford Centre of Evidence-Based Medicine. The first study shows that BCG Revaccination does not become a protective factor against tuberculosis reinfection with OR 0.92 (0.80 – 1.05) in all populations yet interestingly yielded OR 0.77 (0.59-1.00) in HIV-negative patients, while the second study shows that BCG Revaccination can prevent conversion of QFT with the study showing p <0.05, thus believed to lower tuberculosis infection rates, the third study shows that BCG revaccination yield modest protection against TB infection after 15 years (Hazard Ratio 0.64 95% CI 0.46-0.89). The main difference between the studies is the main population, which the first study also includes HIV-positive patients. In conclusion, BCG Revaccination may be considered to be given and be considered as protective factor against tuberculosis reinfection in HIV-negative patients.

Abstract

XYZ Orthopaedic Hospital in Jakarta faces declining patient acquisition and challenges in converting clinic visits into elective surgeries, which are its primary revenue streams. This study explores the effects of social media marketing and price perception as one of the antecedents to hospital brand image and their impact on hospital choice intention, with health literacy as moderating variables. A cross-sectional study was conducted with 134 respondents recruited from outpatient clinics at XYZ Orthopaedic Hospital. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire and analysed through Structural Equation Modelling (SEM). Variables measured included Word of Mouth (WoM), Hospital Social Media, Patient Review, Hospital Advertisement, Price Perception, Surgeon Reputation, Hospital Brand Image, Health Literacy, and Hospital Choice Intention. Word of Mouth, Surgeon Reputation, and Price Perception have significant impact toward Hospital Brand Image while Hospital brand image itself does not have an impact towards Hospital Choice Intention unlike Surgeon Reputation (R= 0.440, p<0.05). The Overall model has an R2 of 0.690. Importance Performance Map Analysis shows that without Hospital Brand Image, Price Perception of this hospital needs significant improvement and very important, but when accounts for the hospital brand image, the price perception becomes less important. Enhancing word of mouth, price competitiveness and emphasizing surgeon reputation are critical for improving hospital brand image. With a stronger hospital brand image, one can price more freely towards patients.
