Resource Utilization

Kenneth Bastin, Dolores A. Buchler, Judith A. Stitt et al. · American Journal of Clinical Oncology · 1993

A comparative analysis of anesthesia use, perioperative morbidity and mortality, capital, and treatment cost of high dose rate versus low dose rate intracavitary brachytherapy for gynecologic malignancy is presented. To assess current anesthesia utilization, application location, and high dose rate afterloader availability for gynecologic brachytherapy in private and academic practices, a nine-question survey was sent to 150 radiotherapy centers in the United States, of which 95 (63%) responded. Of these 95 respondents, 95% used low dose rate brachytherapy, and 18% possessed high dose rate capability. General anesthesia was used in 95% of programs for tandem + ovoid and in 31% for ovoids-only placement. Differences among private and academic practice respondents were minimal. In our institution, a cost comparison for low dose rate therapy (two applications with 3 hospital days per application, operating and recovery room use, spinal anesthesia, radiotherapy) versus high dose rate treatment (five outpatient departmental applications, intravenous anesthesia without an anesthesiologist, radiotherapy) revealed a 244% higher overall charge for low dose rate treatment, primarily due to hospital and operating room expenses. In addition to its ability to save thousands of dollars per intracavitary patient, high dose rate therapy generated a “cost-shift,” increasing radiotherapy departmental billings by 438%. More importantly, perioperative morbidity and mortality in our experience of 500+ high dose rate applications compared favorably with recently reported data using low dose rate intracavitary treatment. Capital investment, maintenance requirements, and depreciation costs for high dose rate capability are reviewed. Application of the defined “revenue-cost ratio” formula demonstrates the importance of high application numbers and consistent reimbursement for parity in high dose rate operation. Logically, inadequate third-party reimbursement (e.g., Medicare) reduces high dose rate parity and threatens the future availability of high dose rate technology.

IDENTIFIERS *Resource Utilization

During Adolescence · 2016

In this study, 242 adolescents were asked to indicate the likelihood that they would seek support from their mother, father, closest sibling, and closest friend when confronted with each of 24 common concerns. Mean scores were generated in eight specific and three general categories for all four target individuals. Mean scores for target individuals were compared. Mothers were the most likely source of support in the family. Siblings were rated higher than mothers for dating support, and were a more likely source of support than fathers for several areas. Peers were the most likely source of support, with higher ratings than siblings in all categories, and with higher ratings than parents in all areas except financial support, career planning, and personal values. Although ratings were similar for both genders, where differences did exist, females were more likely to go to peers and mothers for support than were males. Younger adolescents showed strorg preferences for mothers and peers, while older adolescents were likely to give higher ratings to fathers and siblings in several areas. Peers were rated higher than other targets on most areas of support-seeking. Findings reinforce the importance of context and its interaction with gender and age in determining adolescents ' support-seeking behavior.

Measuring Resource Utilization

Laura E. Leggett, Rachel G. Khadaroo, Jayna Holroyd‐Leduc et al. · Medicine · 2016

A variety of methods may be used to obtain costing data. Although administrative data are most commonly used, the data available in these datasets are often limited. An alternative method of obtaining costing is through self-reported questionnaires. Currently, there are no systematic reviews that summarize self-reported resource utilization instruments from the published literature.The aim of the study was to identify validated self-report healthcare resource use instruments and to map their attributes.A systematic review was conducted. The search identified articles using terms like "healthcare utilization" and "questionnaire." All abstracts and full texts were considered in duplicate. For inclusion, studies had to assess the validity of a self-reported resource use questionnaire, to report original data, include adult populations, and the questionnaire had to be publically available. Data such as type of resource utilization assessed by each questionnaire, and validation findings were extracted from each study.In all, 2343 unique citations were retrieved; 2297 were excluded during abstract review. Forty-six studies were reviewed in full text, and 15 studies were included in this systematic review. Six assessed resource utilization of patients with chronic conditions; 5 assessed mental health service utilization; 3 assessed resource utilization by a general population; and 1 assessed utilization in older populations. The most frequently measured resources included visits to general practitioners and inpatient stays; nonmedical resources were least frequently measured. Self-reported questionnaires on resource utilization had good agreement with administrative data, although, visits to general practitioners, outpatient days, and nurse visits had poorer agreement.Self-reported questionnaires are a valid method of collecting data on healthcare resource utilization.

Resource utilization prediction

Daniel W. Yoas, Greg Simco · 2012

Research into predicting long-term resource needs has been faced with a very difficult problem of extending the accuracy period beyond the immediate future. Business forecasting has overcome this limitation by successfully incorporating the concept of human interaction as the basis of prediction patterns at the hourly, daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly time frames. Computer resource utilization is also impacted by human interaction therefore influencing research into predictability of resource usage based on human access patterns. Emulated human web server access data was captured in a feasibility study that used time series analysis to predict future resource usage. For prediction beyond several minutes, results indicate that the majority of projected resource usage was within an 80% confidence level thus supporting the foundation of future resource prediction work in this area.

RESOURCE UTILIZATION POLICY

John A. Carver · 1976

The federal government in its sovereign capacity has a policy role with respect to land and resource utilization. It shares this role with the states and by no means occupies the entire field. For example, zoning laws are traditionally a part of the state police power. The federal government has a distinct policy role with respect to its own lands and resources and their utilization-a role that is, by and large, not shared with states. The Public Land Law Review Commission (PLLRC) studied the dimension of this separate policy role and identified its magnitude by entitling its final report One Third of the Nation's Land, I to reference the fraction of the nation's total land area in this category. In general, the federal government's status as a sovereign landowner applies to the national forests, the national parks, wildlife refuges, and all of the public domain .

Health Resource Utilization

2003

Chronic respiratory diseases represent a challenge in both industrialized and developing countries because of their frequency and economic impact [1]. Understanding the burden of health care utilization and costs is important in developing strategies for prevention and management of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), due to the fact that health planners in these countries have limited resources. COPD is a disease state characterized by chronic, progressive airflow limitation that is not fully reversible,with aprecise definition varying from different management guidelines [2]. COPD refers to disorders including chronic bronchitis, emphysema, and a combination of the two disorders [3].

Resource Utilization Systems

Ariane Chepko, Olivier De Weck, L. Darmofal et al. · 2009

This paper discusses an approach to exploring the conceptual design space of largescale, complex electromechanical systems that are technologically immature. A modeling framework that addresses the fluctuating architectural landscape (an inherent feature of developing technology systems) is applied to the design of a lunar in-situ resource utilization (ISRU) oxygen plant. Four optimization methods using genetic algorithms are compared on both a quadratic-based test function and the ISRU plant design with the goal of balancing the resources spent on exploiting individual architectures and exploring a broad selection of architectures. These include two dual-level approaches that address the discrete architecture design space differently from the continuous sizing design space and two combinatorial approaches that address both the discrete and continuous simultaneously. It was found that the single-level, combinatorial approaches worked better on the real-world ISRU case study, providing a balance between computation time spent on optimizing sizing and performance of each architecture and time spent searching a large number of architectures. For the ISRU architecture search, the single-level approaches on average covered ~300 architectures with

Predicting cloud resource utilization

Michael Borkowski, Stefan Schulte, Christoph Hochreiner · 2016

A major challenge in Cloud computing is resource provisioning for computational tasks. Not surprisingly, previous work has established a number of solutions to provide Cloud resources in an efficient manner. However, in order to realize a holistic resource provisioning model, a prediction of the future resource consumption of upcoming computational tasks is necessary. Nevertheless, the topic of prediction of Cloud resource utilization is still in its infancy stage.
