Background: There is currently no gold standard for delivery of systems-based practice in medical education, and it is challenging to incorporate into medical education. Health systems competence requires physicians to understand patient care within the broader health care system and is vital to improving the quality of care clinicians provide. We describe a health systems curriculum that utilizes problem-based learning across 4 years of systems-based practice medical education at a single institution.

Methods: This case study describes the application of a problem-based learning approach to system-based practice medical education. A series of behavioral statements, called entrustable professional activities, was created …

Life-Threatening Retropharyngeal Hemorrhage Secondary To Rupture Of The Inferior Thyroid Artery., Cristina G Calogero, Andrew C. Miller Do, Marna R. Greenberg Do, Mph, Facep

Marna R Greenberg DO, MPH, FACEP

Inferior thyroid artery (ITA) rupture is rare and may progress to life-threatening conditions. We present a patient who visited the emergency department after an episode of syncope and dizziness in which he had a mechanical fall that resulted in abrasions and a hematoma to his left forehead. The patient presented with dysphagia and anterior neck swelling that progressed rapidly into airway compromise requiring endotracheal intubation. Emergent computed tomography revealed a large retropharyngeal hematoma, with active arterial extravasation that was thought to be arising from the thyrocervical trunk on the left. The hematoma measured approximately 6.7 cm transversely and 3.2 cm …

Funding Mechanisms For Gender-Specific Research: Proceedings From A Panel Discussion At The 2014 Academic Emergency Medicine Consensus Conference., Basmah Safdar, Marna Greenberg, Ayodola Anise, Jeremy Brown, Robin Conwit, Rosemarie Filart, Jane Scott, Esther K Choo

Marna R Greenberg DO, MPH, FACEP

As part of the 2014 Academic Emergency Medicine (AEM) consensus conference "Gender-Specific Research in Emergency Care: Investigate, Understand, and Translate How Gender Affects Patient Outcomes," we assembled a diverse panel of representatives from federal and nonfederal funding agencies to discuss future opportunities for sex- and gender-specific research. The discussion revolved around the mission and priorities of each organization, as well as its interest in promoting sex- and gender-specific research. The panelists were asked to provide specific examples of funding lines generated or planned for as pertinent to emergency care. Training opportunities for future researchers in this area were also discussed.

Emergency Medicine Gender-Specific Education., John Ashurst, Alyson J Mcgregor, Basmah Safdar, Kevin Weaver, Shawn M Quinn, Alexander Rosenau, Terrence Goyke, Kevin Roth, Marna Greenberg

Marna R Greenberg DO, MPH, FACEP

The 2014 Academic Emergency Medicine consensus conference has taken the first step in identifying gender-specific care as an area of importance to both emergency medicine (EM) and research. To improve patient care, we need to address educational gaps in this area concurrent with research gaps. In this article, the authors highlight the need for sex- and gender-specific education in EM and propose guidelines for medical student, resident, and faculty education. Specific examples of incorporating this content into grand rounds, simulation, bedside teaching, and journal club sessions are reviewed. Future challenges and strategies to fill the gaps in the current education …

A Research Agenda For Gender And Substance Use Disorders In The Emergency Department, Esther K Choo, Gillian Beauchamp, Francesca L Beaudoin, Edward Bernstein, Judith Bernstein, Steven L Bernstein, Kerryann B Broderick, Robert Cannon, Gail D'Onofrio, Marna Greenberg, Kathryn Hawk, Rashelle B Hayes, Gabrielle A Jacquet, Melanie J Lippmann, Karin V Rhodes, Susan H Watts, Edwin D Boudreaux

For many years, gender differences have been recognized as important factors in the etiology, pathophysiology, comorbidities, and treatment needs and outcomes associated with the use of alcohol, drugs, and tobacco. However, little is known about how these gender-specific differences affect ED utilization; responses to ED-based interventions; needs for substance use treatment and barriers to accessing care among patients in the ED; or outcomes after an alcohol-, drug-, or tobacco-related visit. As part of the 2014 Academic Emergency Medicine consensus conference on "Gender-Specific Research in Emergency Care: Investigate, Understand and Translate How Gender Affects Patient Outcomes," a breakout group convened to …

Gender Differences In Perceptions And Self-Reported Driving Behaviors Among Teenagers., Gavin Barr, Kathleen Kane, Robert Barraco, Timarie Rayburg, Lauren Demers, Chadd Kraus, Marna Greenberg, Valerie Rupp, Kimberly Hamilton, Bryan Kane

Marna R Greenberg DO, MPH, FACEP

BACKGROUND: The Centers for Disease Control reports that motor vehicle crashes (MVCs) are the leading cause of injury and death among U.S. teenagers, and disproportionately affect males. Among preventable causes of MVCs involving teenage drivers, distracted driving continues to be a serious public health problem. OBJECTIVES: To describe gender differences in teenage drivers' self-perceptions of safe driving behaviors, and self-reported risk behaviors and distractions while driving. METHODS: We prospectively surveyed teenage drivers from four high schools in Pennsylvania and New Jersey. Gender comparisons were made between self-reported perceptions and self-reported driving behaviors. Descriptive statistics and chi-squared testing were used in …

Organization, Execution And Evaluation Of The 2014 Academic Emergency Medicine Consensus Conference On Gender-Specific Research In Emergency Care - An Executive Summary., Basmah Safdar Md, Marna R. Greenberg Do, Mph, Facep

Marna R Greenberg DO, MPH, FACEP

With the goal of reducing inequalities in patient care, the 2014 Academic Emergency Medicine (AEM) consensus conference, "Gender-Specific Research in Emergency Care: Investigate, Understand, and Translate How Gender Affects Patient Outcomes," convened a diverse group of researchers, clinicians, health care providers, patients, and representatives of federal agencies and policy-makers in Dallas, Texas, in May 2014. The executive and steering committees identified seven clinical domains as key to gender-specific emergency care: cardiovascular, neurological, trauma/injury, substance abuse, pain, mental health, and diagnostic imaging. The main aims of the conference were to: 1) summarize and consolidate current data related to sex- and gender-specific …

Applying The Gender Lens To Emergency Care: From Bench To Bedside., Basmah Safdar Md, Marna R. Greenberg Do, Mph, Facep

Marna R Greenberg DO, MPH, FACEP

This article outlines the history, need, and evolution of gender medicine in emergency care research. Clinical examples are used where sex and gender play a role in diagnosis, management, or prognosis of patients in the emergency department (ED). The ED serves as an ideal setting to advance sex- and gender-specific research as the primary access point for health care for much of the U.S. population, with more than 136 million annual visits. Gender medicine provides the biologic and social framework to provide high-quality, safe, equitable, and cost-effective sex- and gender-specific care in the ED. With a 24-hour hospital presence, and …

Detecting Foreign Bodies In A Head Laceration, Thomas R Fowler, Steven Crellin, Marna Greenberg

Marna R Greenberg DO, MPH, FACEP

Open wounds represent a potential area of medicolegal risk if foreign bodies are not identified prior to wound closure. The importance of imaging of lacerations was underscored by a recent case where a 20-year-old male collided with a friend's mouth on a trampoline sustaining a simple, superficial scalp laceration. The wound was evaluated in typical fashion including irrigation and local exploration and was prepared for closure. The friend was then evaluated and noted to have multiple extensive dental fractures. An increased index of suspicion generated further evaluation of the first patient's wound. Plain radiography obtained of the first patient's skull …
