Definition : Clamps designed for grasping and/or compressing a cannula without damaging it. These clamps are available in several sizes and configurations according to the cannula to be clamped and the procedure to be performed; they are frequently a flexible plastic mechanism that may be operated by a spring and attached to the cannula. Some cannula clamps are available as an integral part of a specialized device (e.g., a cannula attached to a hemodialysis fistula needle). Cannula clamps are used mainly in procedures (e.g., cardiopulmonary bypass surgery, hemodialysis procedures, oral surgery) that require a temporary closing of the cannula (i.e., the cannula is no longer patent).

Each denial increases your costs and jeopardizes your revenue. How much are you spending to get paid? Download this infographic from Change Healthcare to uncover the real cost of denials.
The Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act of 2015 (his friends just call him MACRA) is the biggest change to physician reimbursement since Medicare was signed into law by President Lyndon Johnson in 1965. So it's understandable that many healthcare professionals are feeling a little overwhelmed with this complex law that covers diverse issues such as data reporting, practice models, evolving clinical standards and physician evaluations.
As patients take on more financial burden for their care, their consumer-driven demands are also increasing. They expect healthcare organizations and providers to increase price transparency and deliver more fluid, retail-like experiences, or they will go elsewhere.Healthcare organizations must shift to a new mindset for care delivery--one that connects positive patient experiences with bottom line impacts.
There are 3 types of search. Please only use one option at a time.
1) Build a boolean search string.
Ensure that document matches include...
2) Search for a phrase:
3) Search on part of a word:
Information on how to use Search
There are 2 types of basic queries: Terms and Phrases.
A Term is a single word search.
A Phrase would wrap a string of words in quotes and find matches on the extact string.
Boolean Operators You can combine basic queries with Boolean operators to form a more complex query. Boolean operators define the relationships between Terms or Phrases. Our search supports the following Boolean operators: AND, "+", OR, NOT and "-". Please note that Boolean operators must be all uppercase.
AND example search: default AND document
This is the default operator. It will be used if there is no Boolean operator between two terms. For example:
default document is the same as default AND document. In this case both terms need to exist within a listing to find a match on that listing.The + character is synonymous with using AND.
OR example search: default OR document
In this case just one of the terms needs to exist within a listing to find a match on that listing.
NOT example search: default NOT "document type"
The NOT operator excludes documents that contain the term (or phrase) after NOT. So a listing match would have to include the word default but not the phrase "document type". The - character is synonymous with using NOT.
Wildcard/Prefix queries You can perform "wildcard" or "prefix" queries using the '*' operator. Whereas all of the previous search found exact matches on the whole term or phrase, a wildcard search will find partial matches.
example search: ehr*
This query will match all documents containing words beginning with the prefix 'ehr' like the word Ehrlichia.
