The Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) is considered the "gold standard" for measuring burnout, encompassing 3 scales: emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and personal accomplishment. Other well-being instruments have shown utility in various settings, correlations between MBI these could provide evidence of relationships among key variables to guide efforts.We explored other instruments.We fielded a multicenter survey 9 emergency medicine (EM) residencies, administering 4 published...
Although the U.S. population continues to become more diverse, ethnic and racial health care disparities persist. The benefits of a diverse medical workforce have been well described, but percentage emergency medicine (EM) residents from underrepresented groups (URGs) is small has not significantly increased over past 10 years. Council Emergency Medicine Resident Directors (CORD) requested that panel CORD members review current state diversity in EM training programs. objective discussion...
Abstract Burnout, the triad of emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and low personal accomplishment, begins early in medical education prevalence continues to increase over time among U.S. physicians. The Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education ( ACGME ) now requires that programs sponsoring institutions have same responsibility address well‐being as they do other aspects resident competence. Yet, there are no studies published emergency medicine EM literature discuss...
Abstract Background The Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education Common Program Requirements effective 2017 state that programs and sponsoring institutions have the same responsibility to address well‐being as they do other aspects of resident competence. Objectives authors sought determine if implementation a multifaceted wellness curriculum improved burnout measured by Maslach Burnout Inventory ( MBI ). Methods We performed multicenter educational interventional trial at 10...
Background: Acute stress impairs physician decision-making and clinical performance in resuscitations. Mental skills training, a component of the multistep, cognitive-behavioral technique inoculation, modulates response high-performance fields. Objective: We assessed effects mental training on emergency medicine (EM) residents’ simulated resuscitations as well perceptions this intervention. Methods: In prospective, educational intervention trial, postgraduate year-2 EM residents seven...
Although the average age of diagnosis for aortic dissection is 63, [1] this case demonstrates need to consider AD in younger patients, particularly presence risk factors or absence another reasonable diagnosis.This suggests PCP use as a precipitant hypertension and sympathomimetic stress on aorta.Despite high sensitivity, false negative CTA imaging can occur.If pretest probability remains high, further must be obtained.During resuscitation ED, focused point-of-care ultrasound also assist...
BACKGROUND: Over the past two decades, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) has evolved from a hospital-associated infection to significant public health threat in community, causing outbreaks of soft tissue infections otherwise healthy individuals.The goal this study was determine prevalence nasal MRSA colonization low acuity Emergency Department (ED) Fast Track patients order better characterize epidemiology pathogen. METHODS:We conducted cross-sectional convenience sample...
While burnout is occupation-specific, depression affects individuals comprehensively. Research on interventions for in emergency medicine (EM) residents limited.We sought to obtain longitudinal data positive screens EM residents, assess their association with burnout, and determine whether implementation of a wellness curriculum affected the rate screens.In February 2017, we administered Maslach Burnout Inventory Primary Care Evaluation Mental Disorders Patient Health Questionnaire...
Medical education is interconnected with the health of population. In recent years, reforms in undergraduate medical (UME) and graduate (GME) have attempted to align physician training outcomes complexities practice. Concerningly, UME GME not always worked concert toward this aim. Various stages practice remain siloed, United States lag behind other developed nations.1The Quadruple Aim, a framework highlighting goals lower costs, improved patient outcomes, care team experiences, accepted as...
