Quality Improvement Project: Compliance Of Antenatal Testing In Patients With Class Iii Obesity, Isabella L. Sciacca, Timothy Kremer, Nicole Tenzel

North Texas GME Research Forum 2024

The prevalence of obesity in women of reproductive age (20 to 39) in the US is 39.7%. It has been estimated that one-quarter of pregnancy complications are attributable to maternal obesity. Comprehensive prenatal care is imperative to achieving positive health outcomes. This quality improvement (QI) initiative aimed to improve antenatal fetal surveillance rates in patients with class III obesity. Evidence based interventions to test fetal wellbeing were implemented and examined over a 7 month time period to evaluate physician compliance of the standard of care for antenatal surveillance starting at 34 weeks gestation. Following implementation of this initiative, compliance with …

Case Report: Streptococcus Gallolyticus Prosthetic Joint Infection, Jeffrey Dickerson, Liza Salloum, Amaan Sheikh, Madhukanth Reddy, Bryan Youree

North Texas GME Research Forum 2024

Streptococcus gallolyticus, part of the Streptococcus bovis/Streptococcus equinus complex (SBSEC) formerly known as Group D streptococi, is strongly associated with colorectal cancer and infective endocarditis. Its appearance in septic arthritis is rare, and its role in septic arthritis has not been as thoroughly investigated. We present the case of a 69 year old male with a history of atrial fibrillation and hypertension who was admitted to our hospital after undergoing a right knee replacement in 2023 with a chief complaint of right knee pain, fever, and chills. Arthrocentesis and blood cultures were performed, and the patient was started on …

Myelodysplastic Syndrome With An Unusual De-Novo Gata1 Mutation In An Elderly Caucasian Male: A Case Report, Minh-Triet Nguyen, Maryam Fallahi, Talha Riaz

North Texas GME Research Forum 2024

Myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) is a disorder of blood cell proliferation that has been shown to have multiple risk factors for pathogenesis. One risk factor well documented in existing literature is a mutation in GATA-binding factor 1 (GATA1) which is classically seen in younger individuals with Down syndrome. However, in our case report, we present an unusual presentation of MDS with a de novo GATA1 mutation in a 75-year-old male with no history of Down syndrome, who initially presented with isolaterombocytopenia. A 75-year-old male presented for evaluation of unexplained asymptomatic thrombocytopenia found incidentally on outpatient laboratory evaluation. Further evaluation of the …

Impact Of Vertical Zone Redesign: One Hospitals Experience, Zachary Shields, Enrique Alvarez-Ventura, Curtis Johnson

North Texas GME Research Forum 2024

Background: Crowding in the emergency department has been a prevalent issue for decades, however, over the last few years, crowding and the number of patient visits in EDs have been higher than normal. Many factors influenced this, including the COVID-19 pandemic. Emergency departments around the country have been at a loss in improving patient flow and time in the ER. Literature has demonstrated some possible methods with varying results, but there has not been significant research on the subject.

Methods: After reviewing the literature, we designed a system where patients were stratified between different groups using the triage system. …

Colovaginal Fistula In A Patient Without A Hysterectomy, Austin Moore, Mollie Ahn, Anthony Macaluso

North Texas GME Research Forum 2024

Introduction: A majority of case reports and review studies exploring the incidence of colovaginal fistulas typically involve patients of older age with a history of both a hysterectomy and at least one episode of symptomatic diverticular disease. Colovaginal fistulas rarely occur in patients who have not had a prior hysterectomy. Case Description: A 52 year old female presented to colorectal surgery clinic with a history of multiple episodes of sigmoid diverticulitis who now had passage of air and stool from her vagina. She was confirmed to have evidence of a colovaginal fistula from her sigmoid colon to her …

The Impact Of Tamsulosin And Duration In Catheter-Associated Uti (Cauti) At Weatherford, Feeza Hasan, Diana Steedley, Maria Guerrero, Muhammad Siddique

North Texas GME Research Forum 2024

Among Catheter-Associated Urinary Tract Infections (CAUTI) acquired in the hospital, approximately 75% are associated with a urinary catheter, which is a tube inserted into the bladder through the urethra to drain urine. Between 15-25% of hospitalized patients receive urinary catheters during their hospital stay. A urinary tract infection (UTI) is an infection involving any part of the urinary system, including urethra, bladder, ureters, and kidney. UTIs are the most common type of healthcare-associated infection reported to the National Healthcare Safety Network (NHSN). The most important risk factor for developing a CAUTI is prolonged use of the urinary catheter. Therefore, catheters …

Subacute Defibrillator Lead Associated Right Ventricular Perforation In A Young Individual With Non-Ischemic Cardiomyopathy: A Unique Clinical Case, Jackson V. Littlejohn, Aditya Sharma, Marisha R. Sharma, Kamran Rizvi

North Texas GME Research Forum 2024

Pacemaker-lead associated complications are often documented in elderly populations with ischemic heart disease. Acute perforations within 24 hours of implantation are the most common, and immediate life-threatening complications are most likely to occur during an acute perforation. Subacute perforations between 1 day and 30 days after implantation are less common and carry a lower risk of life-threatening complications. Here, we present a unique case of subacute right ventricular perforation in a young individual with non-ischemic cardiomyopathy, challenging the conventional understanding of such an occurrence. Further adding to the intrigue of our case, the patient had recurrent hospital visits both before …
