It is equipped with a shelter equipped in the operating room and other support units. This includes surgeons, emergency physicians, intensivists, and traumatologists.
It has already been used successfully in the recent catastrophic earthquake with excellent result
Valutazione di appropriatezza dell’utilizzo dell’ospedale: il caso dell’ IRCCS Ospedale Maggiore di Milano
No full textTo measure the level of not appropriated hospital use for some DRG's a Lombardia Region AEP version was applied to two units in the Ospedale Maggiore in Milano. The aims of the study was to evaluate the level of appropriateness in Neurology and Dermatology wards for some DRG's which are at risk to be applied in not appropriated way, to study the reasons of not appropriated use, to educate medical doctors in neurology and dermatology to apply for the right level of care for they patients and to highlight some limits of the Lombardia Regional protocol
Flow cytometric analysis of bronchoalveolar lavage and venous blood lymphocyte phenotype for the diagnosis of acute graft rejection in lung transplant patients : The Lung Transplant Group, Ospedale Maggiore di Milano
No full textOBJECTIVE: To investigate modifications of phenotype in bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) and venous blood lymphocytes as markers of acute organ rejection in lung transplant patients.
STUDY DESIGN: Five consecutive patients receiving successful single lung transplants between March 1991 and April 1992 were followed for two years; serial bronchoscopies with BAL and transbronchial biopsies (TBBs) were performed. BAL and venous blood lymphocyte cytofluorimetry was performed at every procedure, and an index, (blood T4/T8)/(BAL T4/T8), was computed.
RESULTS: The index was always > or = 3 in the two patients who did not have graft rejection and always < 3 in the two patients who had repeated episodes of acute rejection (even when no rejection was apparent). The index was frequently < 3 when cytomegalovirus infection was diagnosed.
CONCLUSIONS: Since BAL is far less invasive and carries lower risks than TBB, the index might be considered, if our results are confirmed, for screening patients at high risk of acute rejection. TBB could be used as a confirmatory tool for patients who have an index < 3
Built heritage of health: Italian hospital’s inward/outward urban history and relocation dilemma Ca’ Granda Ospedale Maggiore Policlinico case study
Get PDFHospitals, health centres and asylum buildings fall within the sphere of so-called health architecture, places oriented towards health promotion and prevention. A solid evolutionary process characterises all structures that accommodate health-related functions owing to the constantly changing needs of society, methods of treatment/prevention and complex scientific and technological advancements. Architectural health structures need to be kept modern and up to date, and heritage buildings are generally considered unsuitable. The evolutionary process has often radically changed the relationship between hospitals and historic structures or hospitals and the city. Initially located within the historic urban fabric, health structures were shifted outside of it in the 20th century into new modern complexes in suburban areas. The case of the Ca’ Granda Ospedale Maggiore Policlinico in Milan is particularly emblematic of the inwards/outwards hospital relocation phenomena that occurred around Italy during the 20th century, and it can compellingly trigger a debate over the conservation/innovation challenges faced by the built heritage of health
