INTERHOSPITAL PATIENT TRANSFERS WITHIN A LARGE HEALTHCARE SYSTEM
SHM Converge 2022
Background: The availability of beds within healthcare systems has been stressed during each wave of the COVID-19 pandemic. Healthcare systems with tertiary hospitals have had increasing patient volumes and face limitations of specialized urgent (e.g., ECMO) and routine (e.g., Percutaneous Coronary Intervention) functions during critical inpatient surge volumes. Reserving the limited capacity at a tertiary […]

EARLY-CAREER HOSPITALISTS’ PERSPECTIVE ON HOSPITAL MEDICINE-FOCUSED EDUCATION IN RESIDENCY TRAINING
SHM Converge 2022
Background: Acknowledging that a successful career in hospital medicine (HM) may require specialized skills, residency programs have developed hospital medicine-focused education (HMFE) programs. Surveys of internal medicine residency leaders have described HMFE curricula but are limited to that specialty and lack input from early career hospitalists (ECHs) who recently completed this training. Therefore, we surveyed […]

PROTECTING TIME FOR SCHOLARSHIP IN ACADEMIC HOSPITAL MEDICINE: A MULTI-INSTITUTIONAL, QUALITATIVE STUDY
SHM Converge 2022
Background: Scholarly productivity is critical for academic fulfilment and promotion in hospital medicine (HM), but many hospitalists struggle to achieve scholarly success. Protected time (PT) (i.e., non-clinical time that can be dedicated to scholarly activities) is a key facilitator of academic productivity in HM. However, little is known about how PT for scholarship is managed […]

BUILDING A THRIVING ACADEMIC HOSPITALIST WORKFORCE: A RAPID QUALITATIVE ANALYSIS TO IDENTIFY KEY AREAS OF FOCUS IN THE FIELD
SHM Converge 2022
Background: As the COVID-19 pandemic continues, the hospitalist workforce, which has been at the forefront, has been further stretched in both clinical and non-clinical domains. Hospitalists have faced increased clinical workloads due to inpatient volume surges, have been asked to lead hospital administrative pandemic responses, and have had to quickly adapt research to the context […]

OVERDIAGNOSIS OF COMMUNITY-ACQUIRED PNEUMONIA: RISK FACTORS AND OUTCOMES FROM A 48 HOSPITAL COHORT STUDY
SHM Converge 2022
Background: Community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) is the most common infectious diagnosis necessitating adult hospitalization in the United States (US). Timely diagnosis of CAP is important to improve patient outcomes. However, overdiagnosis of CAP, or treatment of CAP despite inadequate signs or symptoms of CAP, may also pose a significant threat to patient safety. Potential harm of […]

ANALYZING MONDAY DISCHARGES TO IDENTIFY LOST OPPORTUNITIES FOR WEEKEND DISCHARGE IN ADULT PATIENTS ADMITTED TO THE HOSPITAL MEDICINE SERVICE
SHM Converge 2022
Background: Fewer hospitalized patients are discharged per day on weekends as compared to weekdays.1 Hospital medicine groups have implemented quality improvement (QI) initiatives to increase weekend discharges, however, the factors contributing to lower rates of weekend discharges are not well-described.2 To better understand contributors to missed opportunities for weekend discharge, we analyzed patients discharged on […]

PHM FELLOWSHIP: THE PERFECT TIME TO FOCUS ON POCUS
SHM Converge 2022
Background: Point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) is a growing interest in pediatric hospital medicine, however few Pediatric Hospital Medicine (PHM) fellowships incorporate POCUS training formally into their curriculum. In addition to its ability to expedite care, POCUS can improve the ability of pediatric hospitalists to take care of patients in resource-limited settings or when specialists are not […]

EVALUATING THE IMPACT OF A SECOND-LEVEL OBSERVATION UNIT ON PATIENT OUTCOMES AT A LARGE ACADEMIC HEALTH CENTER
SHM Converge 2022
Background: Observation Units (OUs) are a common healthcare delivery model for health systems across the United States. OUs vary from a type 1 to type 4 based on several factors[1]. Another category of OUs – second-level OUs – does not fit this traditional classification due to a different patient population composition and staffing model. The […]

INCREASING USE OF METERED-DOSE INHALERS FOR PRIMARY INPATIENT BRONCHODILATOR THERAPY: A SINGLE-CENTER QUALITY IMPROVEMENT PROJECT IN THE COVID-19 ERA
SHM Converge 2022
Background: The use of metered-dose inhalers (MDIs) with spacers for delivering bronchodilator therapy is established as equivalent to the use of nebulizers (nebs) for symptom response.[1-3] Additional well-documented benefits to using MDIs in place of nebs include fewer systemic side effects, better long-term patient adherence to therapy, and, in the era of COVID-19, decreased use […]

FAST TRACK DIALYSIS 2: 2 FAST 2 FURIOUS
SHM Converge 2022
Background: In 2017, Emory University Hospital Midtown (EUHM) instituted fast track dialysis (FTD) which identified low risk patients in the emergency department (ED) in need of hemodialysis (HD) and provided it efficiently. The FTD development team consisted of hospital medicine, emergency medicine, nephrology, dialysis unit nursing, and ED nursing. This program showed a reduction in […]
