Background: Racism is a public health crisis impacting patients and healthcare workers. Antiracist education is not typical in undergraduate or graduate medical education curriculum. Discriminatory practices in health care result in worse patient outcomes in Black, Indigenous, & People of Color (BIPOC). Committing to antiracist work is the first step in addressing racism and must […]

SHM Converge 2022
Background: Residents are uniquely positioned to learn from and contribute to informatics. As key electronic health record (EHR) users, they offer practical solutions and feedback. Resident informatics engagement promotes EHR proficiency and accelerates implementation of best practices and quality improvement. Understanding how clinical data are structured creates a foundation for future scientific inquiry using clinical […]

SHM Converge 2022
Background: For the academic hospitalist, rounds are the cornerstone of teaching, learning, and patient care. At our institution, a study found that internal medicine residents on the inpatient wards spent an average of 3.4 hours rounding daily. However, most residents and attendings described rounds as “inefficient” and “low value.” With the importance of ACGME work […]

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 […]

SHM Converge 2022
Background: Internist trainees have traditionally acquired radiology skills in a piecemeal manner, either through elective rotations or through informal “radiology rounds” on inpatient medicine rotations. here is no comprehensive curriculum for teaching basic radiology to internal medicine (IM) residents, and their image interpretation skills are limited (1). Additionally, the rise of the electronic medical record […]

SHM Converge 2022
Background: Diabetes is an exceedingly common disease encountered by medical trainees, with over 8 million hospitalizations in 2018 listing type 1 or type 2 diabetes as a diagnosis (1). Evidence supports continuing certain oral diabetes medications during admission when safe, reflected in recent consensus statements from professional societies (2,3). Nevertheless, oral medications are often held […]

SHM Converge 2022
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 […]

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: 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 […]
