Are All Vital Signs “Vital”? A Retrospective Study of Nighttime Vital Sign Frequency and Risk of Clinical Deterioration
Hospital Medicine 2020, Virtual Competition
Background: Sleep disruptions are prevalent among ward patients and are associated with a number of negative health outcomes, including elevated blood pressures and delirium. Overnight vital signs are an especially bothersome disruptor and can deplete crucial health care resources. Although vital sign checks every 4 hours are often routine, there are limited data to support […]

EXAMINATION OF ANTICOAGULATION PRESCRIPTION AMONG ELDERLY PATIENTS WITH ATRIAL FIBRILLATION AFTER IN-HOSPITAL FALL
Hospital Medicine 2020, Virtual Competition
Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is strongly age-dependent, and with a growing geriatric population, the incidence and prevalence of AF is expected to increase in the United States. As a result, the number of patients at risk of a thromboembolic event due to AF is also expected to increase. Although bleeding associated with mechanical falls is […]

Early Result from Use of an Implantable Loop Recorder for Detection of Atrial Fibrillation in Patients with Cryptogenic Stroke
Hospital Medicine 2020, Virtual Competition
Background: Paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF) is an important risk factor for thromboembolic complications. We hypothesized that using an implantable loop recorder (ILR) may help for identification of occult AF in patients with cryptogenic stroke. Methods: We report the early results from a prospective study that monitors patients with cryptogenic stroke/TIA for 2 years after loop […]

IMPACT OF COAGULATION DISORDERS ON SHORT-TERM IN-HOSPITAL OUTCOMES IN TRANSJUGULAR INTRAHEPATIC PORTOSYSTEMIC SHUNT(TIPS) PROCEDURES
Hospital Medicine 2020, Virtual Competition
Background: Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) creation is a commonly utilized procedure used for patients with chronic liver disease and resistant portal hypertension. Previous studies have explored the trends and short-term outcomes in TIPS procedures. This study aims to further compare short-term in-hospital outcomes of patients with coagulation disorders when undergoing TIPS. Methods: This retrospective […]

Development of the Tool to Assess Inpatient Satisfaction with Care from Hospitalists (Taisch)
Hospital Medicine 2020, Virtual Competition
Background: Service excellence in the U.S. hospitals, as measured by patient satisfaction scores, is receiving more attention, with the results being reported publicly and affecting reimbursement rates. Ideally, accurate feedback could be given to individual providers to improve their performance; however, the current survey methods have significant shortcomings that limit their usefulness. Methods: We developed […]

META-ANALYSIS OF ANTITHROMBOTIC THERAPY IN PATIENTS WITH ATRIAL FIBRILLATION UNDERGOING PERCUTANEOUS CORONARY INTERVENTION
Hospital Medicine 2020, Virtual Competition
Background: For patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) who undergo percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), antithrombotic therapy including oral anticoagulants (OAC) and antiplatelets are indicated. The optimal combination is not known. We investigated the efficacy and safety of different antithrombotic strategies in patients with AF undergoing PCI. Methods: PUBMED and EMBASE were searched through September 2019 for […]

Changes in Inpatient Staffing Following Implementation of New Residency Work‐Hour Restrictions
Hospital Medicine 2020, Virtual Competition
Background: In July 2011, the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) mandated new residency work‐hour restrictions. These changes limited the maximum hours of continuous clinical responsibilities from 30 to 16 hours for interns, 24 hours for upper‐level residents. Our objective was to determine how inpatient staffing of non–critical care teaching services within pediatric residency […]

NETWORK META-ANALYSIS OF ANTICOAGULATION STRATEGIES FOR VENOUS THROMBOEMBOLISM IN PATIENTS WITH CANCER
Hospital Medicine 2020, Virtual Competition
Background: Cancer-associated thrombosis (CAT) is a common complication in patients with malignancy. Management of venous thromboembolism (VTE), in these patients, is challenging due to the high risk of recurrence and inherent risk of bleeding in this population. Direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) have emerged as a treatment options for CAT. As yet there have not been […]

Double Mono: A Case of Coinfection with Ebv and Cmv
Hospital Medicine 2020, Virtual Competition
Case Presentation: A 29‐year‐old male with a history marijuana and cocaine use presented with abdominal pain of three weeks duration. The pain was associated with nausea, emesis, dark urine, night sweats and fever. He denied recent travel or sick contacts. On admission he was mildly tachycardic and afebrile. On physical exam he had left upper […]

NOT JUST ANOTHER CASE OF ENDOCARDITIS!
Hospital Medicine 2020, Virtual Competition
Case Presentation: A 55-year-old female presented with headaches and intermittent fevers. On initial examination, she had left hand weakness. Laboratory findings revealed leukocytosis; brain MRI demonstrated multiple bilateral cerebral infarcts. Initial workup was concerning for embolic stroke which initiated our search for a cardioembolic source. No significant abnormalities were seen on transthoracic echo (TTE) and […]
