We studied associations between structures of health care (e.g., physician/nurse staffing, healthcare manpower), disease management systems, process of care, and patient outcomes on following 3 topics ; 1) acute care of ischemic stroke, 2) high- and low-intensity intensive care models, and 3) transfusion practices and management. The results of the study suggest that, in addition to clinical factors, clinical management systems and clinical processes, is significantly associated with better process of care and patient outcomes.
