The vast majority of the healthcare problems burdening our society today are caused by disease-promoting lifestyles (e.g., physical inactivity and unhealthy eating). Physicians report poor training lack confidence in counseling patients on lifestyle changes.To evaluate a new curriculum rotation medicine for preventive residents.Training included didactics (six sessions/year), distance learning, educational conferences, newly developed rotations at Institute Lifestyle Medicine, Yale-Griffin...
In Brief Interdisciplinary rounds (IBs) have been proposed to improve staff communication and reduce LOS. There no studies of IBs on an inpatient telemetry ward. Patients a unit community hospital were randomly assigned either IB intervention or standard care. Charts reviewed determine LOS, patient characteristics, indirect indices quality Intervention: Daily work rounds, in which resident physicians, nurses, ancillary meet discuss patients the team. Besults: 84 enrolled, 42 randomized was...
Behavioral health risk factor and belief data for the indigenous population of Peruvian Amazon are unavailable. Therefore, we conducted structured interviews adults living in 5 towns remote region Peru. Respondents (n = 179) were 67% women with a mean age 35.4 years. The average household size was 6.7 people. A majority (72%) unable to see doctor when needed because lack money distance. Only 6% reported excellent health, nearly half (49%) fair health. Forty-eight percent drank alcohol 73%...
Patient-centered communication is essential for successful patient encounters and positive outcomes. Therefore, training residents how to communicate well one of the key responsibilities residency programs. However, many residents, especially international medical graduates, continue struggle with barriers.All faculty from a small community teaching hospital participated in three-year, multidimensional patient-centered curriculum including lectures, experiential learning, skills practice,...

The purpose project ASPIRE (Advancing Skills Preventive residents through Integrative Education, Research Evaluation) was create, implement, evaluate needs-based, innovative training curriculum in medicine....
Colorectal cancer is the third most common in United States. Despite efforts to increase colorectal screening, rate of compliance with recommended screening remains relatively suboptimal according American Cancer Society (53%).To assess whether time hospitalization a suitable opportunity for patients receive counseling and recruiting undergo colonoscopy colon cancer.In 2009, we conducted cross-sectional survey hospitalized adults age 50 80 years order their responses on modified version...
Intracoronary thrombosis is fundamental to the pathogenesis of acute myocardial infarction (MI), yet few studies have examined diagnostic value routine coagulability markers, such as activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT), in patients with chest pain. We hypothesized that initiation early MI would shorten aPTT, and conducted a retrospective cohort study admitted diagnosis pain through emergency department one community hospital between 1 January 30 August 1998. Patients were diagnosed...
The randomized controlled trial is the model against which research designs are judged. Concurrent with rising standards of evidence, however, a trend toward greater inclusiveness in community-based research, exemplified by Centers for Disease Control and Prevention-funded Prevention Research Centers, nationwide network academic-community partnerships engaged health promotion disease prevention research. Yale-Griffin Center developed replicable process devising trials context community...
Introduction Accurate, comprehensive, and legible operation notes are essential for maintaining patient records, supporting healthcare professionals, facilitating research. The study focused on adherence to Royal College of Surgeons (RCS) guidelines established in 2008. Despite the guidelines, poor documentation practices have been reported globally. This audit seeks address this issue enhance quality. Methodology evaluated 19 parameters as defined 2014 RCS operative note guidelines. Data...

OBJECTIVES: This study assessed hospital electronic patient information systems (EPIS) for inclusion of variables associated with avoidable and extended hospitalization (preventable inpatient time). METHODS: We searched MEDLINE HealthSTAR databases to identify predictors preventable time. then audited the admissions process handwritten medical record at 1 hospital, EPIS all hospitals, affiliated Yale University School Medicine predictors. RESULTS: Whereas written included 58 predictors, 10...
OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: The objective of this partnership was to create a global network clinical and public health researchers communities conducting technology-assisted research in noncommunicable disease. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: University Rochester’s Clinical Translational Science Institute (CTSI) has successfully leveraged the informatics core’s capacity into an emerging organizations that focus on technology settings outside mainland United States. CTSI coordinated with another...
