Background:Understanding the impact of environmental factors on pathological outcomes in hospital settings is crucial for optimizing patient care and outcomes. Tertiary care hospitals, in particular, serve patients with complex medical conditions, making it essential to investigate how environmental factors may contribute to their health status.This study aims to investigate the influence of environmental factors on pathological outcomes in patients admitted to a tertiary care hospital. By examining various environmental parameters, including air quality, noise levels, temperature, and sanitation practices, we seek to identify potential associations with pathological conditions and patient outcomes. Materials and Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted among patients admitted to a tertiary care hospital over a specified period. Environmental data, including air quality measurements, noise levels, temperature readings, and sanitation practices, were collected using standardized protocols. Pathological outcomes were assessed through medical records review, including diagnoses, disease severity, and treatment outcomes. Statistical analyses, including correlation tests and regression models, were performed to evaluate the relationship between environmental factors and pathological outcomes. Results:Preliminary findings reveal significant associations between environmental factors and pathological outcomes among tertiary care hospital patients. Higher levels of air pollution and noise pollution were correlated with increased severity of respiratory diseases and cardiovascular conditions. Additionally, suboptimal sanitation practices were linked to higher rates of healthcare-associated infections. Temperature fluctuations were also found to influence the progression of certain pathological conditions. Conclusion:This study highlights the importance of considering environmental factors in tertiary care hospital settings, as they may significantly impact pathological outcomes among patients. Addressing environmental determinants such as air quality, noise levels, temperature control, and sanitation practices could potentially improve patient outcomes and enhance the overall quality of healthcare delivery in tertiary care settings. |
