EXPLORING THE DYNAMIC STRUCTURE OF RAPID RESPONSES: A FOCUSED ETHNOGRAPHY
Hospital Medicine 2020, Virtual Competition
Background: Rapid response teams play an important role in the care of clinically deteriorating patients. Variability in team members, setting, and activation criteria creates unique challenges to studying these teams. The complexities and inefficiencies of rapid responses due to their heterogeneity are poorly understood. Here, we explore opportunities for improved rapid response team efficiency using […]

Many of these patients will show signs of significant physiological deterioration in the 24 hours prior to ICU transfer or cardiac arrest [1-4]. Different scores have been developed […]

Discharge Before Noon Challenge to Improve Medicine Service Throughput
Hospital Medicine 2020, Virtual Competition
Background: Late‐afternoon discharges create admission bottlenecks in the ED. Long ED length of stay (LOS) is a major dissatisfier for patients. In addition, patients who arrive on the floor after 1 pm have a 0.6 day longer LOS than those who arrive before 1 pm. In January 2012, the 30‐day running discharge before noon (DBN) […]

THE AMBULATORY MEDICAL EMERGENCY TEAM: A NOVEL ROLE FOR HOSPITALISTS
Hospital Medicine 2020, Virtual Competition
Background: While rapid response teams are well established for inpatient emergencies, outpatient emergency response on large medical campuses is much more variable. At our institution, this need for outpatient emergency response is particularly acute. As a tertiary referral center, cancer treatment center, and the largest transplant center in the state, our clinics provide 1.4 million […]
