With some clinical studies indicating that diagnostic ultrasonography can be superior to the physical exam, several U.S. medical schools now offer ultrasound training early in undergraduate curriculum — though not everyone agrees on wisdom of approach.
Nitric oxide production in the vascular endothelium is promoted by diverse agonists that transiently increase intracellular Ca2+ concentration and activate endothelial nitric-oxide synthase (eNOS), a Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent enzyme. eNOS acylated fatty acids myristate palmitate targeted thereby to plasmalemmal signal-transducing domains termed caveolae. enzyme activity markedly attenuated its interactions with caveolin, structural scaffolding protein of We have discovered living cells,...
Point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) is expanding across all medical specialties. As the benefits of US technology are becoming apparent, efforts to integrate into pre-clinical education growing. Our objective was describe our process integrating POCUS as an educational tool school curriculum and how such perceived by students.This a pilot study introduce ultrasonography Harvard Medical School first- second-year students. Didactic hands-on sessions were introduced first-year students during...
Heart failure (HF) is a chronic condition affecting nearly 5.7 million Americans and leading cause of morbidity mortality. With an aging population, the cost associated with managing HF expected to more than double from US $31 billion in 2012 $70 by 2030. Readmission rates for patients are high-25% readmitted at 30 days 50% 6 months. Low medication adherence contributes poor management higher readmission rates. Remote telehealth monitoring programs aimed improved may improve reduce...
The purpose of this study was to evaluate our pilot program incorporating oral health education into the medical curriculum by evaluating students' perspectives on curriculum.Two hundred second-year students were asked fill in a presession survey online regarding their familiarity with basic concepts and comfort level performing examinations, postsession paper that repeated questions added effectiveness session.Of 200 students, 164 (82%) participated surveys. pre- postsurvey results showed...
During professional identity formation, medical students integrate their newly developing identities with longstanding personal identities. Longitudinal mentorship has been shown to aid in this process. Lack of clear relationship expectations among and faculty is a barrier effective longitudinal relationships.A cross-sectional, survey-based study collected information about experiences from both (mentees) (mentors). Surveys focused on collecting participants' attitudes regarding ideal actual...
Exposing trainees to roles within medical school offices is an important, but often overlooked, component of academic medicine career development. This module described the and responsibilities staff Office Student Affairs (OSA) opportunities for become engaged, lead, develop student affairs-related competencies. The 90-minute workshop was presented at three regional conferences US schools between September December 2019. Participants were students, residents, fellows from multiple...
Problem Mentorship is valuable to medical students undergoing professional identity formation. Many institutions lack infrastructure facilitate the personalized mentoring that supports students’ integration of new identities with their personal and values. Approach The authors developed a novel mentorship platform called Weave via multistep, iterative design process, incorporating in-person survey-based student faculty feedback. Features include clear communication offerings expectations,...
While we wait for Congress to act protect the “Dreamers” — young immigrants who were covered by Deferred Action Childhood Arrivals program graduate medical education programs and their potential applicants have tough decisions make.
Purpose: Medical school simulations are often designed for a limited number of students to maximize engagement and learning. To ensure that all first-year medical who wished join had an opportunity participate, we novel method larger groups. Patients Methods: We devised low technology “Orchestra Leader’s” chart approach prominently display students’ roles, chosen by lottery. During simulation, the was mounted on intravenous pole served as group organizational tool. A course instructor...
