Summary: Despite efforts to improve screening for CHB in high-risk populations and provide care for those with chronic infection in the United States, data shows that a large proportion of at-risk individuals remain untested and only a minority of those with chronic infection receive long-term care. Additionally, even among patients being treated for CHB, only a small minority undergo basic testing and screening for disease staging and complications.

Summary: An integrated plan within a defined care pathway is essential for the diagnosis, interventions, and redefinition of care of autistic people. Challenges include delivering services across all domains or life stages and effective coordination between providers and services. Research should prioritize the development of an integrated care pathway model centered around case management, individualization, support, and quality management.

Summary: This study evaluated the effectiveness of two different continuous quality improvement interventions in an integrated community urology practice, showing that audited physician feedback can improve active surveillance adoption and adherence to prostate biopsy time-out templates. Continuous quality improvement should be a dynamic process, and audited feedback coupled with education was found to be most effective.

Summary: This study developed a new tool to assess the quality of care for post-partum hemorrhage (PPH) globally and identified characteristics of maternity units associated with inadequate PPH management. The study found that low-volume units, private units, and low-level care units were associated with inadequate care for PPH after vaginal delivery, while the absence of a 24/7 on-site anesthesiologist was associated with inadequate care for PPH after cesarean delivery.
