ObjectiveTo imitate the process of identifying episode separations,which helps to improve the methodology of control episode separations.Methods Abstracts of inpatient record on all patients discharged from the hospitals in Beijing in 2010 were drawn from Beijing Public Health Information Center.Risk-adjusted by Diagnosis Related Groups-Beijing version (BJ-DRGs),two-weeks readmission rate was calculated at the whole city and hospital levels respectively.Comparing the readmission rate between these two levels,“suspicious objects”of episode separations can be found.In turn,the episode separations can be identified by detail analysis of these suspicious objects.Results In 2010,there were 13 DRGs with readmission rate exceeding 10％.Take the cases of dementia and other chronic brain disorders for example,the readmission rate for this type of inpatients in hospital G was much higher than the average level of the whole city.After the detail analysis of hospital G,the episode separations were found.Conclusion It is an effective method to indentify episode separations that calculating readmission rate based on the DRG risk-adjustment and using city level readmission rate as bench-mark.

Objective To observe the effect of Bi-level positive airway pressure(BiPAP) noninvasive ventilation on acute left ventricular failure(LVF). Methods BiPAP group :32 patients with severe LVF from various causes were treated by BiPAP with traditional drugs. Control group:32 patients were treated with traditional drugs alone,and the results were compared with those of BiPAP group. Results Dyspnea was relieved in all patients in BiPAP group,both the respiratory rate and heart rate were slowed,the vital signs were stable,and PaO2 ,SaO2 went up. The total effective rate was 100%, which was only 68. 75% in control group. Conclusion The use of BiPAP noninvasive ventilation therapy is feasible and effective on LVF.
