Background: The lack of competent teaching faculty is a major limitation to the expansion of point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) in the field of inpatient and outpatient medicine despite the availability of approved training programs. Programmatic research demonstrates that participants have increased knowledge, skill and confidence immediately after a course. Currently there is insufficient data on long […]

Background: Biases and microaggressions are common in the clinical setting and can impact the wellbeing of medical trainees and faculty. From our knowledge, this is the first study to assess workplace experiences based on group identity of medicine faculty and trainees across sites and subspecialities using qualitative and quantitative data to help design re-enactment upstander […]

Background: Staffing of inpatient medicine services with Advanced Practice Providers (APPs), including physician assistants and nurse practitioners, is becoming increasingly common at academic medical centers across the United States. The various roles filled by APPs have not been well-described in the literature. The purpose of this study is to better characterize how APPs are utilized […]

Background: Risk assessment for venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a part of every hospital admission. The workflow of who completes the assessment varies between hospitals, but often it is carried out by trainees. VTE risk assessment is further complicated by the variety of methods to identify those patients who are appropriate for chemoprophylaxis, mechanical prophylaxis, or […]

Hospital Medicine 2017, May 1-4, 2017; Las Vegas, Nev.
Background: Patients admitted to inpatient hospital services are increasingly cared for by hospitalists rather than their primary care providers. When transitioning from hospital-based to ambulatory care, suboptimal information transfer can lead to serious adverse events and readmissions; therefore, demands for timely preparation of high-quality discharge summaries are increasing. Confronted with these demands, most hospitalists are […]

SHM Converge 2021
Background: It is typical for new advanced practice providers (APPs) to onboard within our hospital medicine division for at least six months. With the arrival of the first Covid-19 surge in Spring 2020, we onboarded a dozen off-service APPs on a much shorter timeline, typically one week. This required intensive precepting and teaching. As the […]

Background: The hospitalist role has traditionally been within the hospital setting where a dedicated Rapid Response Team (RRT) and critical care support are available to respond to acute clinical events. While hospitalist involvement in RRT/Codes can vary by institution, the academic hospitalist is infrequently the RRT/Code team leader. As the hospitalist’s scope expands to new […]
