1) Ch1: Intro Flashcards
Outcome Research
Systematic measurement of pt or service results
Documentation
Process/product of recording the status, clinical decision-making, and provision of health services
Cohort Data
Measurements taken from a group of pt’s w/similar characteristics
Retrospective Data
Process of harvesting selected data from pt charts or files after pt has discontinued service
Hunt & Treat Approach
Look for impairments and then treat only the ones you can improve
Outcomes Approach
Predict and work towards the expected outcome
- Provide pt w/mile-markers to help them gauge their progress
Narrative Format
Impairment-oriented documentation that uses both types of data and has goals at the end
- No standard terminology is used and is not computer ready so its difficult to input your data
Impairment Checklist Format
Has measures of impairment at the beginning and uses numeric and codified data
- Has a lot of fill-in-the-blanks that don’t necessarily follow a specific order making it difficult to input your data
Function-Oriented Format
Starts by identifying functional losses and uses both types of data (mostly narrative)
- Doesn’t use standard terminology and its not computer-ready so its difficult to input your data
Functional Oriented Format
Starts by identifying functional losses and uses both types of data
- Uses standard terminology that is numerically coded and is available online so data is directly entered MAKING DATA INPUT EASY!
Mixed Orientation
Starts by identifying functional losses and impairment levels and uses both types of data
- Uses an online form with automatic data exporting so DATA INPUT IS EASY!
