The aim of the study was to determine whether individualized coaching improved surgical technical skill in operating room a higher degree than current residency training.Clinical training is valuable opportunity for surgeons acquire and knowledge; however, it often remains underutilized. Coaching has been successfully used various industries enhance performance, but its role surgery insufficiently investigated.This randomized controlled trial conducted at one program. Trainees undergoing...

This paper examines the clinical characteristics associated with tobacco use and nicotine dependence in a large sample of alcohol-dependent subjects. The goal was to determine if alcohol history were smoking status, even after controlling for additional characteristics, such as antisocial personality disorder, other drug gender. As part Collaborative Study on Genetics Alcoholism, semi-structured interview, including detailed use, administered 1005 men women, made up 658 (65.5%) current...
Background Root cause analyses of surgical complications are high importance to ensure quality, but specific details on technical causes often remain unclear. Identifying subclinical intraoperative incidents attributable errors is essential for developing rescue mechanisms prevent adverse outcomes. Objective Descriptive study characterise error-event patterns in successful laparoscopic procedures. Methods Events (injuries) identified during prior blinded 54 unedited recordings bariatric...
Hypertension is the leading risk factor for morbidity and mortality throughout world pervasive in United States emergency departments (ED). This study documents point prevalence of subclinical heart disease patients with asymptomatic hypertension.
EM Talk is a communication skills training program designed to improve emergency providers' serious illness conversational skills. Using the Reach, Effectiveness, Adoption, Implementation, and Maintenance (RE-AIM) framework, this study aims assess reach of its effectiveness.
Abstract Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a genetic disorder predominantly affecting people of African descent and associated with significant morbidity mortality. To improve SCD outcomes, the National Heart Lung Blood Institute funded eight centers to participate in Implementation Consortium. Sites were required each recruit 300 individuals SCD, over 20 months. We aim describe recruitment strategies challenges encountered. Participants aged 15–45 years confirmed diagnosis eligible. Descriptive...
ObjectiveArtificial intelligence (AI) continues to become increasingly integrated with clinical medicine. Generative AI, and particularly Large Language Models (LLMs) like ChatGPT-3.5 ChatGPT-4, have shown promise in generating human-like text, providing a potential tool for augmenting care. These online AI chatbots already demonstrated remarkable potential, having passed the USMLE, example. The evaluation of these LLMs surgical literature, especially as it applies judgement decision-making,...
ObjectiveTo examine the perioperative, postoperative, and long-term outcomes of fenestrated/branched endovascular aneurysm repair (F/BEVAR) in octogenarians compared to nonoctogenarians.MethodsA multicenter, retrospective cohort study was conducted using Vascular Quality Improvement database, which prospectively captures information on patients who undergo vascular surgery across 1021 academic community hospitals North America. All underwent F/BEVAR aortic from 2012 2022, were included....
Abstract Background: Individuals reside within communities influenced by various social determinants impacting health, which may harmonize or conflict at individual and neighborhood levels. While some experience concordant circumstances, discordance is prevalent, yet poorly understood due to the lack of a universally accepted method for quantifying it. This paper proposes methodology address this gap. Methods: We propose systematic approach operationalize concordance between determinants,...

Medication administration is one of the most potentially dangerous tasks in hospitals. In recent years, medical establishment has gained insight into importance environmental and ergonomic factors on patient safety. Limited data are available how a standard designed medication room (MR) supports safety administration.Proactive observations were conducted at tertiary care facility, Hadassah University Medical Center, Jerusalem, Israel, to determine if principles being implemented preparation...
Comprehensive data capture systems such as the Operating Room Black Box (OR Box) are becoming more widely implemented to access quality in complex environment of OR. Prior installing an OR Box, we assessed perceptions on safety attitudes, impostor phenomenon and privacy concerns around digital information sharing among healthcare professionals A parallel survey was conducted Canada, hence, this study also discusses cultural international differences when implementing new technology...
Abstract Objective Decision aids (DAs) are tools to facilitate and standardize shared decision making (SDM). Although most emergency clinicians (ECs) perceive SDM appropriate for care, there is limited uptake of DAs in clinical practice. The objective this study was explore barriers facilitators identified by ECs regarding the implementation department (ED). Methods We conducted a qualitative interview guided science frameworks. participated interviews focused on disposition patients with...
