Assessing Sentiment Towards Opioid Use Disorder At Jefferson: Characterizing Non-Clinical Emergency Department Staff, Joseph Arciprete, Benjamin Finard, Madalene Zale, Mph, Benjamin Slovis, Md, Hannah Smith

Phase 1

Purpose: To characterize emergency department (ED) staff regard toward opioid use disorder (OUD) and analyze variation based on job category. The closure of Hahnemann Hospital, in combination with the increasing prevalence of OUD, is exacerbating the previously inadequate network of resources for these patients. Jefferson is strategically positioned to improve the care provided to this patient population, especially in an ED setting, and ultimately increase linkage to long-term recovery programs.

Methods: Sentiment toward this patient population was measured utilizing the Medical Condition Regard Survey (MCRS). This questionnaire was previously validated to subjectively, but quantitatively, assess regard toward a defined patient …

Lgbtq-Related Material In Undergraduate Medical Education In The Mid-Atlantic Region Of The United States, Margaret Pearce, Bernard Lopez, Md

Phase 1

Purpose

This study describes the current state of formal lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer (LGBTQ)-related education at undergraduate medical schools in the Mid-Atlantic region of the United States. A review of literature shows the last time a similar study was conducted was in 2011 by Obedin-Maliver et al and was a survey that included all medical schools of the United States and Canada. Given the changes over time for both the LGBTQ and medical community , it is likely that the state of LGBTQ-related education in undergraduate medical education has changed greatly.

Methods

This was a cross-sectional Internet-based survey, …

Assessing The Educational Impact Of 3d Printed Models On Fellow, Resident, And Patient Education For Partial Nephrectomies, E. Reilly Scott, Samuel Morano, Andrea Quinn, Erica Mann, Kaitlyn Boyd, Michelle Ho, Alice Karp, Abhay Singh, Thenappan Chandrasekar, Mark Mann, Edouard Trabulsi, Vishal Desai, Costas Lallas

Phase 1

Purpose:

3D printing is a growing tool in surgical education with the ability to visualize and teach complex procedures from multiple angles. Previous studies demonstrated 3D models as useful teaching tools for partial nephrectomy for patient and trainee education. We aim to create a cheaper and simpler 3D model to encourage these learning opportunities.

Methods:

Patient-specific, cost-effective ($35) 3D models of the affected urologic structures were created using preoperative imaging of 17 patients undergoing partial nephrectomies at Thomas Jefferson University Hospital between July and December 2020.

Patients receiving the surgery filled out two surveys about their understanding of …
