“…Though some studies just investigated the incidence of specific diseases [4,5], the research by Park et al [3] analyzed the correlation between the epidemiology of head trauma patients and the frequency of conducting computed tomography among those patients. They also demonstrated that epidemiologic analysis could be conducted using the medical insurance claim database.…”

ObjectivesThis study considered whether there could be a change of mortality and length of stay as a result of inter-hospital transfer, clinical department, and size of hospital for patients with organophosphates and carbamates poisoning via National Patients Sample data of the year 2009, which was obtained from Health Insurance Review and Assessment Services (HIRA). The utility and representativeness of the HIRA data as the source of prognosis analysis in poisoned patients were also evaluated.MethodsOrganophosphate and carbamate poisoned patients' mortality and length of stay were analyzed in relation to the initial and final treating hospitals and departments, as well as the presence of inter-hospital transfers.ResultsAmong a total of 146 cases, there were 17 mortality cases, and the mean age was 56.8 ± 19.2 years. The median length of stay was 6 days. There was no inter-hospital or inter-departmental difference in length of stay. However, it significantly increased when inter-hospital transfer occurred (transferred 11 days vs. non-transferred 6 days; p = 0.037). Overall mortality rate was 11.6%. The mortality rate significantly increased when inter-hospital transfer occurred (transferred 23.5% vs. non-transferred 7.0%; p = 0.047), but there was no statistical difference in mortality on inter-hospital and inter-department comparison at the initial treating facility. However, at the final treating facility, there was a significant difference between tertiary and general hospitals (5.1% for tertiary hospitals and 17.3% for general hospitals; p = 0.024), although there was no significant inter-departmental difference.ConclusionsWe demonstrated that hospital, clinical department, length of stay, and mortality could be analyzed using insurance claim data of a specific disease group. Our results also indicated that length of stay and mortality according to inter-hospital transfer could be analyzed, which was previously unknown.

“…Park et al [3] mainly focused on epidemiology, and others investigated the incidence of unusual diseases [4,5]. However, we thought that it could also be possible to analyze inter-hospital transfer because HIRA-NPS-2009 contains every detailed personal history of the utilization of medical services.…”

Objective: The aim of our study is to examine the cases that underwent marsupialisation for Bartholin gland abscess cases. Method: Medical records of 230 patients who underwent Bartholin gland abscess marsupialization in our hospital between January 2011 and March 2017 were retrospectively reviewed. Patients' demographic data, location and size of Bartholin abcess, complaints of admission and postoperative complications were recorded. The data of patients who did or did not have vaginal delivery The mean age of the patients was 31.78±7.24 years. Median numbers for gravida and parity were 1.75 and 1.45, respectively. While 62 patients were nulliparous, 160 patients had vaginal delivery and 8 patients had cesarean section. The most common complaint was pain with a rate of 60% and the second most common complaint was dyspareunia. Recurrence was more frequent in the vaginal delivery group. Conclusion: Bartholin abscess is more prevalent in young, sexually active individuals who have a history of surgical intervention in Bartholin gland region. Marsupialisation is an easier procedure than other procedures, the length of hospital stay and the duration of operation are shorter than other procedures.

Objective To describe the results of treatment with CO2 laser for Bartholin gland cysts.Methods Thirty-one women with Bartholin gland cysts were treated with CO2 laser at an outpatient´s setting. Skin incision was performed with focused laser beam, the capsule was opened to drain mucoid content, followed by internal vaporization of impaired capsule.Results There were no complications. Five patients had recurrence of the cyst and were submitted to a second and successful session.Conclusion CO2 laser surgery was effective to treat Bartholin gland cysts with minimal or no complications, and can be performed at an outpatient´s setting.
