Mechanical Falls: Are Patients Willing To Discuss Their Risk With A Health Care Provider?, Marna Greenberg, Michael Nguyen, Brian Stello, Arnold Goldberg, Robert Barraco, Bernadette Glenn-Porter, Anita Kurt, Stephen Dusza, Bryan Kane

Bryan G Kane MD

Background: Falls in the elderly cause serious injury. Objective: We aimed to determine subjects’ comfort in discussing fall risk and home safety evaluations. Methods: This prospective study surveyed a convenience sample of subjects ($50 years old) in an emergency department (ED), health fair (HF), and family practice (FP). The survey included the Falls Efficacy Scale and Vulnerable Elders Survey—validated surveys measuring fall concern and functional decline. Other data—environmental living conditions, participant behaviors, fall frequency—were collected. The associations between perceived fall risk and participant characteristics were assessed using descriptive statistics and random-effects logistic regression. Results: Participants (n = 416, 38% males, …

Learning Evaluation: Blending Quality Improvement And Implementation Research Methods To Study Healthcare Innovations, Bijal A. Balasubramanian, Deborah J. Cohen, Melinda M. Davis, Rose Gunn, L Miriam Dickinson, William L. Miller Md, Ma, Benjamin F. Crabtree, Kurt C. Stange

William L Miller MD, MA

Background: In healthcare change interventions, on-the-ground learning about the implementation process is often lost because of a primary focus on outcome improvements. This paper describes the Learning Evaluation, a methodological approach that blends quality improvement and implementation research methods to study healthcare innovations. Methods: Learning Evaluation is an approach to multi-organization assessment. Qualitative and quantitative data are collected to conduct real-time assessment of implementation processes while also assessing changes in context, facilitating quality improvement using run charts and audit and feedback, and generating transportable lessons. Five principles are the foundation of this approach: (1) gather data to describe changes made …

The Unique Contribution Of Behavioral Scientists To Medical Education: The Top Ten Competencies., Jeffrey L. Sternlieb Phd Jul 2015

The Unique Contribution Of Behavioral Scientists To Medical Education: The Top Ten Competencies., Jeffrey L. Sternlieb Phd

Jeffrey L Sternlieb PhD

Understandably, the focus of most physicians is primarily on the biomedical-What is this disease or injury? Behavioral scientists from various disciplines in medical education generally have a broader approach-Who is this person with these symptoms and what is their story? Since behavioral scientists are often alone among U. S. residency faculty, physicians may fail to recognize the value of their approach to medical resident training. This review identifies and describes the top areas of expertise that behavioral scientists bring to medical education and how their training prepares them to think differently than other medical educators. In the course of identifying …
