Background: Research suggests that high workloads in the inpatient setting (often measured through patient encounters/visits) contribute to increased hospital length of stay, increased costs, and delayed discharges. High workloads also negatively impact our quality improvement efforts and result in a mismatch in job demands and job resources leading to clinician burnout. To date, there is […]

Background: To relieve hospital capacity strain, hospitals often encourage clinicians to prioritize early morning discharges which may have unintended consequences. We aimed to test the effects of hospitalist physicians rounding on discharging patients first. Methods: Prospective, multi-center randomized controlled trial at three large academic hospitals. Participants were Hospital Medicine attending-level physicians and patients the physicians […]

Background: Physician burnout is a ubiquitous problem in healthcare characterized by emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and a sense of reduced accomplishment from daily work. Though research has been done to evaluate the national burden of burnout in hospitalists, the impact of specific drivers of burnout and engagement is not yet well described. Drivers identified in the […]

Background: Geographic localization (GL) has been shown to improve perceptions of physician-nurse, physician-physician, and physician-Case Management communication. However, data on other benefits of GL are mixed. While some studies show that GL improves time allocated by physicians for direct patient care, others report an increased frequency of workday interruptions and greater time spent on indirect […]

Background: Over 50% of practicing physicians in the United States report burnout with internal medicine having some of the highest rates. The aim of our study is to identify factors that contribute to burnout in academic hospitalists and the impact that COVID-19 has had on this phenomenon. Methods: 19 academic hospitalists at Froedtert Hospital & […]

Pneumonia is a frequent condition treated by both hospitalists and emergency room physicians and the most common reason for inpatient antibiotic use and over prescribing. Recent IDSA guidelines for the treatment of community […]
