Cheat sheets: Learn how top hospital quality ratings programs work

Methodology

To create its "World's Best Specialized Hospitals" list, Newsweek and Statista surveyed over 40,000 medical professionals in more than 20 countries about hospitals in 11 different specialties, including:

Cardiology

Cardiac surgery

Oncology

Endocrinology

Neurology

Neurosurgery

Orthopedics

Gastroenterology

Pulmonology

Pediatrics

Urology (new this year)

Survey recommendations made up 92.5% of a hospital's score, while accreditations/certifications made up 5%, and surveys of patient reported outcome measures made up 2.5%. Overall, Newsweek ranked the top 300 hospitals for cardiology and oncology, the top 200 hospitals for pediatrics, the top 150 hospitals for cardiac surgery and endocrinology, and the top 125 hospitals for each remaining specialty. For its "World's Best Smart Hospitals" list, Newsweek and Statista conducted an international survey of hospital managers and health care professionals who were knowledgeable of smart hospitals, as well as an international survey of a hospital's implementation and use of digital technology, which was validated by chief digital/information officers or senior management.

The digital technologies considered in the surveys include:

Electronic functionalities

Telemedicine

Digital imaging

Artificial intelligence

Robotics

Every nominated hospital was reviewed through a quality assurance process via desk review. Hospitals were scored based on their national recommendations (45%), international recommendations (50%), and the international hospital survey (5%). Newsweek ranked the top 300 smart hospitals from 28 different countries.

Why do we wash our hands after peeing?

There's a good reason why you should wash your hands after urination. And no, it doesn't matter if you have the cleanest, straightest, most precise pee aim known to man. “The rationale is that when toileting, it's possible to have fecal material and fecal bacteria get onto your hands,” says Richard T.

There’s a good reason why you should wash your hands after urination. And no, it doesn’t matter if you have the cleanest, straightest, most precise pee aim known to man. “The rationale is that when toileting, it’s possible to have fecal material and fecal bacteria get onto your hands,” says Richard T. Ellison III, an epidemiologist at the University of Massachusetts Memorial Medical Center. (Two nasty byproducts of ingesting fecal matter are E. Coli and hepatitis.) “So it’s wisest to always wash with soap and water even after urinating. Neither plain water nor alcohol hand sanitizers are effective at removing fecal material or killing bacteria in fecal material.” Now, you might be wondering: How can you get fecal matter on your hands if you’re directing your super soaker directly into the urinal, no spillage and splashback whatsoever? For starters, bathroom-door handles have so much bacteria on them, you could use one to colonize Mars. And if that’s not enough for you, flushing actually launches aerosolized toilet funk into the air, which can travel up to six feet. That means virtually everything you touch in the bathroom could be coated with a fine mist of invisible poo particles.

Gross.

So, uh, yeah. That’s why you should wash your hands after urination.
