Background: Persons with opioid use disorders (OUD) represent a disproportionately high percentage of hospitalized patients, have greater lengths of stay and readmissions, can incur higher costs, and are at greater risk of drug-related death immediately post-discharge. Further, despite the availability of effective medications for OUD, patients often are not offered treatment during the inpatient encounter. […]

Using a Modified Coleman Model to Decrease 30‐Day Readmissions on a Telemetry Unit

Drugs Smarter Than the Bugs: Mirtazapine and Mefloquine for Non‐Aids‐Related Progressive Multifocal Leukoencephalopathy
Hospital Medicine 2020, Virtual Competition
Case Presentation: A 77‐year‐old man with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and hypogammaglobulinemia was hospitalized for generalized seizures. Three weeks prior to admission he was found to have progressive psychomotor slowing. Head CT revealed an area of low attenuation involving the frontal lobe with effacement of the cortical sulci and vasogenic edema. MRI demonstrated an abnormal […]

IMPLEMENTATION OF A HOSPITALIST-RUN HOTLINE FOR INPATIENT MANAGEMENT OF OPIOID USE DISORDER
Hospital Medicine 2020, Virtual Competition
Background: Opioid use disorder (OUD) is a highly prevalent medical condition that is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. As rates of opioid addiction have increased in the last several years, hospitalists are uniquely positioned at the front lines to initiate evidence-based treatment for patients who are admitted with comorbid OUD and help link patients […]
