Insights :
Patients Dashboard:
High Readmission Rate (23.7%)
A readmission rate above 20% may indicate potential gaps in discharge planning, post-care follow-up, or treatment effectiveness.
Admissions Peak on Wednesdays
Highest patient admissions are recorded mid-week, especially on Wednesday. This suggests optimal staffing and resource planning may be required on those days.
Majority of Patients Are Female (55%)
This could indicate a gender trend in hospital utilization, possibly linked to maternal health or chronic disease patterns among women.
Top Cities and States
Ikeja, Ikoyi, and Ojo top the city distribution.
States like Lagos, Abuja, Rivers, and Enugu are highly represented. This could help target public health interventions geographically.
Dominant Age Groups
Adults and elderly form the largest patient categories, with Adults (85) and Elderly (81).
Lower numbers in pediatric and adolescent age groups indicate age-driven service demand.
🏥 Clinical Dashboard:
Mortality Rate (12.2%) & Birth Rate (4.0%)
A double-digit mortality rate deserves deeper exploration—could be linked to disease burden, late admission, or treatment limitations.
High Transfer Rate (22.3%)
This might reflect cases requiring specialized care elsewhere, possibly pointing to capacity or skill limitations in specific departments.
Common Diagnoses
Pregnancy, Asthma, and Diabetes top the list.
Indicates need for strong maternal care, chronic disease programs, and community education.
Causes of Death
Cancer, Cardiac Arrest, and Stroke are leading causes of death. These conditions may benefit from early detection and intensive care strategies.
Patient Status Distribution
Most patients are Alive (86.67%), with 33.33% deceased—suggesting moderate recovery outcomes, yet high enough for concern.
Treatment Types Used
Predominance of Therapy and Medication shows reliance on non-invasive care; opportunities exist to evaluate cost-effectiveness across treatment types.
Recommendations:
Enhance Post-Discharge Care to Reduce Readmissions
Introduce follow-up systems, especially for chronic conditions like diabetes and infections.
Analyze Peak Admission Days Further
Investigate why mid-week peaks occur—referrals, clinic schedules, public health campaigns?
Monitor Gender and Age-Specific Services
Prioritize maternal health programs and geriatrics services based on demographic patterns.
Targeted Disease Control Programs
Use diagnosis data to push targeted education and early screening campaigns—e.g., asthma awareness in high-incidence zones.
Evaluate Transfer Causes
Investigate why patients are transferred and whether investing in certain departments could reduce this.
