]]> Comment on Nintendo Wii video games reduce depression in seniors by RightHealth Daily Dose » Blog Archive » “Exergames” Reduce Depression In Seniors http://ihealthbulletin.com/blog/2010/02/27/nintendo-wii-video-games-depression-seniors/#comment-96035 RightHealth Daily Dose » Blog Archive » “Exergames” Reduce Depression In Seniors Tue, 02 Mar 2010 05:17:07 +0000 http://ihealthbulletin.com/blog/?p=3276#comment-96035 [...] Physicians from the University of California, San Diego believe that “exergames” – video games that combine game play with physical exercise, such as the Nintendo Wii – can improve symptoms of minor depression in seniors. Depression that is not yet classified as “major depression” is very common in seniors and can be associated with substantial suffering, functional disability, and increased use of costly medical services. In an exergames study published in the March 2010 issue of The American Journal of Geriatric Psychiatry, researchers found that “More than one-third of the participants had a 50-percent or greater reduction of depressive symptoms. Many had a significant improvement in their mental health-related quality of life and increased cognitive stimulation.” Although this study was very small, it demonstrates a potentially cost-effective way of reducing morbidity among senior citizens and, indeed, many nursing homes around the country are already employing exergames in physical therapy.

]]> Comment on E-prescribing reduces prescription errors 700 percent by RightHealth Daily Dose » Blog Archive » Electoronic Prescriptions Reduce Errors By 700 Percent http://ihealthbulletin.com/blog/2010/02/26/e-prescribing-reduces-prescription-errors-700-percent/#comment-96033 RightHealth Daily Dose » Blog Archive » Electoronic Prescriptions Reduce Errors By 700 Percent Mon, 01 Mar 2010 06:31:24 +0000 http://ihealthbulletin.com/blog/?p=3272#comment-96033 [...] The current edition of the Journal of General Internal Medicine reports that health care providers who use electronic prescriptions are seven times less likely to make errors, compared to those who write prescriptions by hand. Electronic prescriptions are written on computers which contain databases of information on drugs which assist physicians in selecting proper drug dosages, avoid drug interactions, and checking drug allergies. The majority of errors were unlikely to cause serious harm to patients as they were often picked up by pharmacists – these include incomplete directions and omitting the quantity of drug to dispense. A small number of errors were more serious, such as prescribing incorrected dosages of drugs. However, the advantages of e-precribing go well beyond reducing the risk of patient harm. Reduction in errors can dramatically improve health care delivery and reduce health care costs.
