Physicians depend on the medical literature to keep current with clinical information. Little is known about residents' ability understand statistical methods or how appropriately interpret research outcomes.To evaluate understanding of biostatistics and interpretation results.Multiprogram cross-sectional survey internal medicine residents.Percentage questions correct a biostatistics/study design multiple-choice knowledge test.The was completed by 277 367 residents (75.5%) in 11 residency...

<h3>Background</h3> Transfer of responsibility for patient care between physicians is a key process in the hospitalized patients. Systems transfer management and frequency may affect clinical outcomes. <h3>Methods</h3> To characterize systems by which information transferred ("signed out") resident internal medicine residency programs to determine impact recently enacted work-hour regulations on transfers, we mailed self-administered survey chief residents at 324 accredited US outside New...
Physicians fail to pursue answers most of their clinical questions, despite exhortations practice evidence-based medicine (EBM). While studies have revealed several barriers practicing physicians experience in answering residents may encounter unique obstacles. The authors conducted a qualitative study explore residents' trying answer questions.In 2003, the studied convenience sample 34 residents, representing 54% university-based internal program.

Little is known about how often residents encounter unanswered clinical questions in their training. This knowledge would facilitate the development of curricula to help practice evidence-based medicine. study was conducted determine frequency, characteristics, and pursuit residents' questions.Residents a university-based primary care internal medicine program were observed two hospital-based teaching clinics. Residents interviewed after each patient whether they had any remaining questions....
Evidence-based medicine (EBM) training remains a challenge to educators, particularly in graduate medical education. In this article, I trace the history of EBM American education, review traditional journal clubs and contrast them free-standing curricula, petition for advancement integrated teaching propose an agenda future work. Traditional are unsuitable teach evidence-based decision making because their exclusive focus on critical appraisal. contrast, curricula cover identification,...
Human hepatocyte transplantation is gaining acceptance for the treatment of liver diseases. However, reagents used to isolate hepatocytes from tissue are not standardized and show lot-to-lot variability in enzyme activity endotoxin contamination. For clinical application, highly purified preferable crude digest preparations. A dissociating (TDE) preparation (CIzyme(TM) enzymes) was developed based on compositions found a superior lot collagenase previously by our group human isolation. The...

The Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education Outcome Project changed the currency of accreditation from process and structure to outcomes. Residency program directors must document their residents' competence in six general dimensions practice. A recent systematic review, published March 2009 issue Academic Medicine, concluded that instruments currently available are psychometrically inadequate evaluating residents five competencies.In this perspective, authors refute findings...

Malnutrition is associated with an increased risk of mortality in patients admitted to the intensive care unit. Children requiring extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) support represent extremely ill subset this population. There a lack data on impact nutrition state survival cohort. We examined association between being underweight and in-hospital among children supported ECMO.
As physicians' requirements for knowledge and skills evolve, medical educators often encounter the need new curricula. This article presents an approach to identifying, appraising, adapt-ing established curriculum as alternative developing a one. A published managed care is reviewed educational case example.
Background. Recent studies have shown that physicians do not accurately assess patients' health status or treatment preferences. Little is known, however, about how physicians' levels of training experience relate to their abilities these To better understand this phenomenon, the authors compared medical interns and attending predict choices adult patients for end-of-life care. Methods. 230 seriously-ill inpatients were surveyed desires cardiopulmonary resuscitation, current quality life,...
