Background: Every year, as many as 98,000 people die from medical errors within the hospital, making medical errors one of the top 10 leading causes of death in the United States(1). While the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) has incorporated healthcare quality and patient safety into the Clinical Learning Environment Review (CLER) program […]

SHM Converge 2022
Background: Bone marrow biopsies (BMB) are a relatively frequent procedure needed in the inpatient setting, especially in a tertiary care center. BMB are a straightforward procedure with a generally low complication rate. In lieu of using specialists (eg, oncologists) or computed tomography (CT) guidance with radiology, procedure-focused hospitalists can provide an excellent option for doing […]

Background: Medical simulation has been shown to be beneficial to long-term learning (1). A recent systematic review of 21 simulation studies also illuminated its potential role in preventing medical errors (2). Our institution has a robust simulation center with high-fidelity mannequins that all internal medicine residents rotate through on a yearly basis. Each session has […]

SHM Converge 2022
Background: COVID-19 is an emerging illness that the medical community learns more about with each passing day. As medical students go out on their rotations, they receive differing levels of education about the disease and its treatment modalities. Our study aim was to gather baseline information about the knowledge 4th-year medical students were receiving in […]

SHM Converge 2022
Background: Internal Medicine residency is a three-year experience during which second and third year residents are expected to lead a team of first year residents and medical students. This structure has led to many residents finding themselves in leadership positions by circumstance and often with limited prior leadership training. The purpose of this study is […]

SHM Converge 2022
Background: The relationship between autonomy and supervision (A/S) on general medicine inpatient services requires a balance to ensure patient safety while fostering graduated competency in residents. Previous research at our institution has shown a tension hospitalists feel when balancing these two principles. For example, hospitalists reported that the ideal clinical culture should offer more autonomy […]

SHM Converge 2022
Background: Central venous catheters (CVC), including temporary dialysis catheters, are a relatively frequent procedure needed in the inpatient setting. Historically in our institution, CVC have been placed in the intensive care unit (ICU) by critical care staff or in the radiology suite by interventional radiology staff. The reasons for this placement preference have included the […]

SHM Converge 2022
Background: Microaggressions are subtle, indirect words or actions that create hostility, communicate disrespect, or imply a sense of exclusion. Over time, these microaggressions can contribute to physician burn-out and negatively impact well-being. Although studies have found that a majority of physicians have been subjected to these deleterious comments by patients, many physicians have never received […]

SHM Converge 2022
Background: Medication errors and adverse drug events are common in the pediatric population. Parents with limited English proficiency have increased risk of management errors and nearly a third of low-income families failed to pick up their child’s prescriptions after hospital discharge, with non-adherence rates as high as 40%. The objective of this study is to […]

SHM Converge 2022
Background: Much of medical education relies on effective consultation between primary teams and consultants. Previous work has shown that trainees have difficulty with placing and receiving consults. Resident-driven interventions have been shown to increase the number of teaching interactions during consults. Purpose: Our objective was to evaluate the effect of an educational workshop and the […]
