Background: Research using the inpatient setting for interprofessional education (IPE) is sparse. At Duke Regional Hospital, the interprofessional team caring for general medicine teaching service patients includes residents, interns, medical students, physician assistant (PA) students, pharmacy students and residents, pharmacists, nurses, case managers and attending physicians. Purpose: To determine the educational and operational measures needed […]

Background: Interprofessional Education (IPE) has been gaining momentum in academic institutions across the United States since the initiation of the core competencies of interprofessional collaborative practice (IPC). Research suggests that student learners who engage in IPE become interprofessional team members who respect others’ roles and work towards creating positive health outcomes. While the promise of […]

Background: Interprofessional collaboration (IPC) is vital for high-quality patient care, and effective IPC among medical professionals, especially trainees, is crucial to supporting positive individual and team outcomes. Measuring IPC and understanding its impact on patient care remains underexplored. Understanding which IPC patterns are associated with better patient and individual outcomes will inform how to best […]

Background: Identifying patients who may benefit from a Serious Illness Conversation (SIC) in the hospital is an important step in increasing SIC timeliness. Epic’s Readmission Risk Score (RRS) is an electronic health record integrated composite score (0-100%) that includes diagnostic, laboratory, medication, order, and utilization variables to predict unplanned, 30-day readmission and was found by […]

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: Prognostication of survival in advanced cancer patients has been challenging and contributes to poor illness understanding. Disagreements among providers about prognosis occur and is a less studied phenomenon. We asked the Surprise Question (SQ), “Would I be surprised if this patient died within the next 1 year, 6 months, and 1 month?” to Palliative […]

Hospital Medicine 2018; April 8-11; Orlando, Fla.
Background: New ACGME Core requirements require active resident engagement in patient safety. Our institution’s most recent AHRQ Culture of Safety survey revealed poor ratings from residents for closed-loop feedback on event reports they had submitted. Since hospitalists are well-positioned to foster improvement in the culture of safety, we developed an interprofessional intervention in response. Purpose: […]

Hospital Medicine 2017, May 1-4, 2017; Las Vegas, Nev.
Background: Interprofessional rounds have the potential to improve patient safety, quality, and experience. Although increasingly implemented, significant variation in rounding practice patterns exist and few data are available to evaluate impact on patients’ experiences. We implemented a novel inpatient collaborative care (CC) model, which includes interprofessional rounds, and also purposely integrates patients and families into […]

Hospital Medicine 2017, May 1-4, 2017; Las Vegas, Nev.
Background: Evidence is equivocal that unit-based interventions improve quality on inpatient medical services, but most studies have reported their effect in isolation. These interventions may be better conceptualized as complementary components of a redesigned clinical microsystem. A clinical microsystem is defined as the small group of people who work together in a defined setting on […]

Background: Studies show that nurses and physicians often have different perceptions of the quality of interprofessional communication. An important part of daily communication between physicians and nurses involves patients’ clinical plan of care for each day (‘care plan’). We conducted a study examining hospitalist and nurse perceptions of communication of shared patient care plans. Methods: […]
