Eight the 10 HIV-positive patients whose serological status was not recorded on admission were discharged with their still unrecorded and presumably undetected. Thirty-nine (51%) 77 HIV-related risk behaviors identified no record having been serologically tested before or during hospitalization.

Medical students are expected to perform common procedures such as suturing on patients during their third‐year clerkships. However, these experiences often viewed by medical stressors rather than opportunities for learning. The source of this stress is the lack instruction prior being asked observe or procedure a patient. First‐time exposures in stressful environments may result decreased confidence and decrease frequency with which they future. authors sought change paradigm by: (1)...
Pre-clerkship medical students benefit from practice questions that provide rationales for answer choices. Creating these is a time-intensive endeavor. Therefore, not all multiple choice (MCQ) have corresponding explanations to aid learning. The authors examined artificial intelligence's (AI) potential create high-quality clinical vignette-style MCQs. conducted single-center pre-post intervention survey study in August 2023 assessing 8 pre-clerkship course director (CD) attitudes towards...
Background: Video review is a valuable educational tool for teaching communication skills. Many studies have demonstrated its efficacy with individual learners, but few addressed use in group format. Purpose: To assess the benefits of versus video standardized patient encounters through evaluations 4th-year students at Albert Einstein College Medicine. Methods: Students (128) who participated 7-station, patient, clinical competency exam were randomly assigned to an or small selected segments...
Fibrin sheaths may develop around long-term indwelling central venous catheters (CVCs) and remain in place after the are removed. We evaluated prevalence, computed tomographic (CT) appearance, clinical associations of retained fibrin CVC removal.We retrospectively identified 147 adults (77 men 70 women; mean age 58 y) who underwent CT removal. The prevalence sheath remnants was calculated. Bivariate multivariate analyses were performed to assess for between underlying diagnoses leading...
The burden of non-communicable diseases continues to grow throughout the developing world. Health systems in low- and middle-income regions face significant human resource shortages, which limit ability meet growing need for disease care. Specially trained community health workers may be useful filling that provider gap. This study aimed evaluate consistency access care quality hypertension control a worker led, decentralized programme operating rural Uganda. Days between clinical...

Domestic abuse described as "recent" (within preceding 12 months) "lifetime" (recent past). This included emotional, physical, sexual...
Background Mental health tends to worsen over the course of medical school, with steep declines in well-being students’ clerkship year (M3). Positive emotion promotes adaptive coping stress and may help preserve student well-being.

Methods We conducted single-arm pilot LAVENDER, psychology intervention developed...
Medical students must learn the principles of epidemiology and biostatistics to critically evaluate medical literature. However, this subject has traditionally been difficult teach.
