Prevalence and risk factors associated with readmission with acute kidney injury in patients receiving vancomycin outpatient parenteral antimicrobial therapy.
The purpose of this study was to understand barriers to early-stage lung cancer care at high-volume academic centers in the US. Researchers conducted semi-structured interviews with patients with suspected or diagnosed early-stage non-small cell lung cancer who had presented to a multidisciplinary clinic at academic institutions over a 6-month period; a qualitative content analysis was then performed using the framework method. Six themes relating to barriers and facilitators to lung-cancer care were identified, and the authors concluded that these factors must be addressed to improve quality of care among lung cancer patients.
