Actually, in many medical organizations there is an inexpedient structure of labor costs of medical workers, in many respects associated with large time spent on making up medical documentation. The very important aspect is proper formulation of clinical diagnosis and its coding according to the International Classification of Diseases of the 10th revision that in most cases is performed in tradition mode (so called manual coding). The article presents results of functional and cost analysis of application of automated system of coding support in various departments of the Medical Sanitary Unit of of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia at the Moscow Oblast. The study established significant difference in time spent and cost of coding process before and after implementation of automated system. The automated coding of diagnosis permits to reduce six-fold time and cost of coding process, as well as up to 12.6% reduce number of coding errors. The results of functional and cost analysis serve as an objective justification of economic expediency of implementing automated system of diagnosis coding support in multidisciplinary hospital.

The common coding of main diagnosis (so-called "manual coding") is accompanied by quite many errors associated with inobservance of classification algorithm and subjective causes that in statistical morbidity and mortality data corruption. The article presents the results of implementing automated system of diagnosis coding by the ICD-10 in the departments of the Medicosanitary Unit of MVD of Russia in City of Moscow. The functional and time losses and the error rate were studied under manual coding and automated coding system. In case of common coding of complete clinical diagnosis of one discharged patient per day, it takes from 5 to 15 minutes, for coding diagnoses of all discharged patients - about 1 hour. The number of errors in common coding made up to 14.1% (n=2472) and in case of automated coding it made up to 1.5% (n= 63, p>0.05). The application of automated coding system in medical organizations ensures exact correspondence of clinical and statistical diagnosis, unifies wording of clinical diagnosis, minimizes subjective deviations from algorithm of the ICD-10.

The study substantiates possibility of using data retrieved from electronic medical records (EMR) for analyzing comorbidity under diseases of the eye and its adnexa. The purpose of the study is to analyze prevalence and evaluate risk of development of comorbidity in patients with ophthalmologic pathology, based on the data presented in EMR. The total number of patients included into comprised 12 120 individuals. The 653 diagnoses were established and 122 703 requests for medical care were registered. The calculation was applied concerning prevalence, comorbidity index, relative risk of comorbidity. The study established prevalence and level of relative risk of development of opportunistic diseases characteristic for senile cataract and glaucoma. The obtained data on comorbidity may testify in-depth mechanisms of interaction of diseases at cellular, protein or genetic levels. The understanding of mechanisms of interaction of main and concomitant diseases can result in development of new methods of diagnostic, treatment and prevention of diseases. Thus, establishment of glaucoma diagnosis can induce physician to look for possible presence or high probability of development of prostate neoplasm that implies periodic control of prostate-specific antigen. The presented results demonstrate how EMR data can be used to identify, estimate prevalence and risk of comorbidity and also reveals pathogenic mechanisms of interaction between primary and recurrent diseases that can be applied in clinical practice.

Despite attempts of improving actual system of morbidity and mortality accounting, the study research established significant real data distortion. These differences do not allow to assess in fullness complete picture of actual morbidity and mortality. Hence, improvement of approaches to increasing efficiency of indices data registration. The study was carried out in 2017-2019 on the bases of medical organizations of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia. The study assessed quality of encoding of morbidity of 28 061 case histories/out-patient records. The size needed to obtain reliable results was determined using the Lopez-Jimenez formula. The statistical data was processed by MS Excel and Statistica-6 software. The most common errors were associated with non-rubricated and incorrectly rubricated diagnoses (53.2%, n = 2860). The second most common error in the structure of incorrectly formulated diagnosis was associated with using non-informative terms (14.6%, n = 785). The errors regarding non-observance of the ICD 10 revision requirements followed resulting in using and wordings not corresponding to modern classification (10.6%, n = 568). A number of errors was associated with unspecified localization of process (3.6%, n = 195) and other rarely occurring causes (2.6%, n = 139). The results of study permitted to conclude that one of the most promising directions of modernization of the encoding system is the automated encoding system.

The back of the foot is a standard region for measuring transcutaneous oxygen tension (tcpO2) with a reliably determined threshold of ischaemia, but such measurement reflects blood supply of only a portion of angiosomes of the foot. Determining the reference values of tcpO2 in other regions of the lower extremity is of current importance. However, measuring the tcpO2 level on the plantar surface and in some other regions not uncommonly reveal a phenomenon of its steady decrease instead of formation of a plateau. The purpose of the present study was to analyse the frequency of the phenomenon of a steady decrease in ptcO2 level while performing transcutaneous oximetry in various zones of the lower extremity. We retrospectively analysed the results of a total of 160 measurements of tcpO2 in 35 patients with diabetes mellitus. The patients' mean age amounted to 68 (47-87) years, with the duration of diabetes mellitus averaging 14 (1-24) years. The male-to-female ratio was 60:40. Seventy-seven percent of patients had foot ulcers/wounds, 34% of patients had a history of previously endured revascularization. The examination was carried out in the dorsal, plantar, medial plantar regions of the foot, on the medial surface of the crus and in the subclavian region, using the TCM 400 monitoring device (Radiometer, Denmark). The measurements were performed by an experienced operator in strict accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations. We evaluated the average value of tcpO2 between the 15th and 19th minutes of measurement and the peculiarities of the tpcO2 curve (plateau/increase/decrease of the value) within this time interval. The mean tcpO2 value in the medial plantar region was significantly higher than that on the back of the foot: 34 (3-70) versus 22 (1-59) mm Hg, p=0.003. A portion of measurements demonstrated a steady decrease in the tpcO2 during the measurement up to the 40th minute. Complying with the stable plateau phase criteria we had developed were 92% of measurements in the subclavian region, 100% - in the middle third of the crus, 76% - on the back of the foot, 77% - in the medial plantar region and 43% - on the plantar surface of the foot. CONCLUSIONS: 1) the revealed phenomenon of a steady decrease of tcpO2 in some patients needs to be taken into consideration in clinical practice and deserves further study; 2) the nature of this phenomenon is unclear, with a possible effect of skin creams on the results of the measurements; 3) it is advisable to include into the functions of the devices for transcutaneous oximetry an algorithm for confirmation of the true phase of the plateau and calculation of the mean tcpO2 value for a chosen period; 4) despite the need for measurement of tcpO2 in the 'alternative zones' it is necessary to thoroughly study the reliability of the data in these zones and to determine the normal values of the parameter separately for each of them.

BACKGROUND: Depression and anxiety can potentially influence treatment results of diabetic complications. OBJECTIVE: Of our study was to explore: (1) prevalence of these disorders in patients with diabetic foot ulcers (DFU); (2) possible risk factors of depression and anxiety; (3) possible links between ulcer treatment results and depression/anxiety status. METHODS: 285 outpatients with diabetes and foot or leg ulcers were tested for depression and anxiety with self-report scales: CES-D and the anxiety subscale from HADS. Ulcer treatment results, incidence of new ulcers and number of hospital admissions were assessed after 1.5 years of follow-up. RESULTS: Depression was detected in 110 patients (39%), anxiety in 103 (36%). Females had depression and anxiety more often than males (48% and 46% vs. 27% and 25% respectively). A combined score based on diabetes duration, insulin treatment, history of myocardial infarction, history of foot ulcers and recent foot surgery was higher in patients with than without depression (3.0 vs. 2.0, p=0.02). Every of these or other potential risk factors alone was not associated with depression or anxiety. Patients with depression did not demonstrate poorer prognosis except higher mortality in subgroup of severely depressed patients without ulcer history. For anxiety we got similar results as its presence strongly correlated with depression. CONCLUSION: The overall prevalence of depression and anxiety in DFU patients is compatible with other diabetic populations. Various parameters of ulcer severity and duration did not influence the probability of depression and anxiety occurrence. Depression in general was not associated with poorer ulcer treatment results.

The diabetic retinopathy rooms are relatively new interdisciplinary structure in the medical care system. The evaluation of sufficiency of the number of this type of medical service for all patients with diabetes mellitus is lacking. The article presents calculation of required number of diabetic retinopathy rooms based on analysis of actual normative base, epidemiological data and experience of functioning of such rooms kind of rooms in municipal medical institution. It is established that for the room assisting particular population of patients with diabetes mellitus workload in average makes up to 1.87 visits per patient annually. The structure and authorized number of diabetic retinopathy rooms specified by actual normative documents, can be considered as sufficient only under condition that primary screening of diabetic retinopathy will be implemented at least to certain percentage of patients by ophthalmologists outside diabetic retinopathy rooms. This condition is to be considered during development of routing of referral of patients with diabetes mellitus to diabetic retinopathy rooms and other ophthalmologists of polyclinic network for full coverage of patients with screening for retinopathy and other affections of organ of vision under diabetes mellitus.
