Background: Patient experience (PEX) is associated with higher levels of adherence to recommended prevention and treatment processes, better clinical outcomes, improved patient safety within hospitals, and decreased inappropriate health care utilization. (1,2,3) Furthermore, overall patient satisfaction is associated with lower 30-day risk standardized hospital readmission rates after adjusting for clinical quality. (4) Our hospital medicine […]

Background: Balancing attending supervision with resident autonomy is intended to ensure patient safety while allowing trainees to gain graduated competency and independence upon completion of residency. ACGME work-hour restrictions have increased attending supervision, but its effect on resident education and autonomy is unclear. In order to better understand the underlying tensions and contributing factors to […]

Background: Duty hour restrictions for resident physicians have led to the ubiquity of night float systems. While this change has positively influenced well-being and supervision, limited studies indicate a negative impact of night float rotations on resident education. Nocturnists have been identified as a key resource for improving the educational value of night float rotations, […]

Background: Enhanced physician-nurse collaboration improves patient outcomes. Current interprofessional clinical learning environments, however, rarely engage physicians with nurses and are not based on high-performance team frameworks. Therefore, leaders at the University of Chicago Medicine developed the Improving GME Nursing Interprofessional Team Experiences (IGNITE) program to engage interprofessional healthcare teams, with hospitalist coaches, in institutional performance […]

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 […]

Background: Intravenous low-molecular weight iron dextran is indicated for patients with iron deficiency who are unable to take oral iron or experience insufficient efficacy with oral replacement. Adverse effects have been reported, including anaphylaxis and death. The primary purpose of this study was to determine the proportion of patients experiencing adverse reactions in a wide […]

Background: Pediatric hospitalists are responsible for providing high quality care in the hospital setting while teaching learners and maintaining a professional learning environment. This skill is rarely taught during medical training. Peer observation is a collaborative tool with potential for mutual benefit; offering the observer an opportunity to learn new strategies and the individual observed […]

Background: Patients undergoing cardiac surgery are at risk of anemia from blood loss, inflammation, and red blood cell lysis, necessitating blood product utilization and increasing the risk of post-operative complications. RBT-1 (a combination of stannic protoporfin and iron sucrose) is a novel preconditioning drug administered prior to surgery that upregulates anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and iron scavenging […]

Background: Intravenous (IV) low molecular weight iron dextran is a safe and effective treatment for iron deficiency anemia (1). However, oral (PO) iron supplementation remains a preferred mode of iron repletion due to low cost and ease of administration. Unfortunately, the efficacy of PO iron varies due to differences in drug absorption and patient adherence. […]

Background: The American Board of Internal Medicine and the Society of Hospital Medicine have identified routine laboratory testing of stable inpatients as one source of low-value care.1,2 As it is estimated that upwards of 21% of all lab tests represent inappropriate overutilization,3 reducing unnecessary testing could have a significant impact on cost saving, limiting waste, […]
