  • 2013 Research Report
    RESEARCH >REPORT St George and Sutherland Hospitals 2012 » 2013 > INTRODUCTIONS Professor John Edmonds Conjoint Professor, UNSW Chair of the St George and Sutherland Medical Research Foundation The Research Report of the St George and Sutherland Hospitals, currently published every second year, is an important record of our clinical and research staff and some traditional indicators by which institutions’ research status is judged: projects undertaken, grants awarded, publications and presentations. There are encouraging pointers, great and small, that government and society are increasingly recognising the importance of medical research: McKeon’s Strategic Review of Health and Medical Research; a federal commitment to a 20 billion dollar medical research fund; the choice of Suzanne Corey (former Director of WEHI) as the 2014 Boyer Lecturer; even a recent Q & A session devoted to Science & Australia. As society looks to its great academic medical centres for research-driven guidance, it becomes ever more important that St George and Sutherland Hospitals match the excellence of their clinical service and teaching with a comparable level of eminence in research endeavour and success. The St George and Sutherland Medical Research Foundation is committed to helping the hospitals’ academics in that project. The Research Reports provide a useful audit of our joint progress. Professor Peter Gonski Head, Sutherland Teaching Unit St George Clinical School Although Sutherland Hospital is well known as a provider of major clinical service to the South Eastern Sydney Local Health District, it also provides a major teaching resource to medical, nursing and allied health students. Research is now becoming important in its activities. On behalf of Sutherland, I am grateful that the St George and Sutherland Medical Research Foundation has included us in their activities and also providing research funds.

  • Outcomes and Cost Effectiveness of a Respiratory Coordinated Care Program in Patients with Severe Or Very Severe COPD
    Open Journal of Respiratory Diseases, 2016, 6, 52-57 Published Online August 2016 in SciRes. http://www.scirp.org/journal/ojrd http://dx.doi.org/10.4236/ojrd.2016.63008 Outcomes and Cost Effectiveness of a Respiratory Coordinated Care Program in Patients with Severe or Very Severe COPD Shahila Aslam1, Johnathan Man1, Jason Behary1, John Riskallah1, Saidul Ansary1, Benjamin CH Kwan1,2 1Department of Respiratory and Sleep Medicine, The Sutherland Hospital, Sydney, Australia 2St George and Sutherland Hospitals Clinical School of Medicine, University of New South Wales, Sydney, Australia Received 8 August 2016; accepted 23 August 2016; published 26 August 2016 Copyright © 2016 by authors and Scientific Research Publishing Inc. This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution International License (CC BY). http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Abstract Multidisciplinary community coordinated care programs are widely adopted to optimise care of chronic disease patients, but there is a need for further evaluation in the setting of COPD. This ob- servational study evaluated 147 patients with severe or very severe COPD who were enrolled in a multidisciplinary community respiratory coordinated care program (RCCP) from 2007 to 2012. Comparison was made of hospitalisation rates and length of stay for 12 months prior to joining the program, and the first 12 months after joining the program. This data was used to inform a cost analysis. Enrolment into RCCP halved the annual hospital admission rate from 1.18 to 0.57 admis- sions per year (relative risk reduction 51.4%, p < 0.001), and annual total length of stay was re- duced from 8.06 to 3.59 days per patient per year (p < 0.001).
