Improving Annual Wellness Visit Documentation In Clinic, Chak Lam Yeung, Gurunath Subramanyam, Krishna Ramesh, Mohammad Nadim, Jasmyne Bowser, John Sturgeon

North Texas Research Forum 2025

Introduction: Medicare beneficiaries who received an annual wellness visit (AWV) were noted to have reduced Medicare spending. Review of Medical City North Hills Internal Medicine Clinic data showed that 44% of eligible patients received an AWV. Improper documentation and coding were the primary reasons eligible AWVs were not accounted for even though they were performed. Majority of incomplete documentation was missing information regarding patient’s functional ability, level of safety, home safety, and activities of daily living. The information is normally obtained from a questionnaire completed by the patient prior to the visit. Questionnaire was noted by residents to be unorganized …

Improving Colon & Rectal Cancer Screening At Medical City North Hills Clinic, Basil Nduma, Sharvani Raguthu, Gurunath Subrahmanyam, John Sturgeon

North Texas Research Forum 2025

Introduction: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths globally. Despite its severity, fewer than half of eligible Americans undergo annual screening. The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) recommends CRC screening from age 45 to 75, with personalized assessments for those aged 76 to 85. The current CRC screening rate at the Medical City North Hills Internal Medicine Residents’ Clinic is 9.3%, significantly below the target rate of over 66%. Objective: This project aimed to increase the CRC screening rate from 9.3% to over 66% at the Medical City North Hills Internal Medicine Residents Clinic, in …


Navigating The Complexity Of Ards And Cardiogenic Shock With Veno-Arterial Ecmo: A Case Report, Sanjana Kesireddy, Mohan Sengodan Jan 2025

Navigating The Complexity Of Ards And Cardiogenic Shock With Veno-Arterial Ecmo: A Case Report, Sanjana Kesireddy, Mohan Sengodan

North Texas Research Forum 2025

INTRODUCTION: When deciding between VA ECMO (veno-arterial ECMO) and VV ECMO (veno-venous ECMO), the primary consideration is the underlying pathology affecting the patient’s heart and lungs. VA ECMO provides support for both the cardiovascular and respiratory systems, making it suitable for patients experiencing cardiogenic shock or combined cardiac and respiratory failure. In contrast, VV ECMO is used exclusively for respiratory failure, offering support to patients with severe lung dysfunction but intact cardiac function. CASE PRESENTATION: 41 year old male with no known past medical history presented s/p cardiac arrest secondary to aspiration pneumonia due to alcohol and opioid intoxication. Chest …


Malignant Phyllodes Tumor With Osteosarcomatous Differentiation, Chris Robert, Kayla Mccarthy, Danielle Pigneri Jan 2025

Malignant Phyllodes Tumor With Osteosarcomatous Differentiation, Chris Robert, Kayla Mccarthy, Danielle Pigneri

North Texas Research Forum 2025

Introduction: Phyllodes tumors are fibroepithelial tumors accounting for 1% of primary breast neoplasm with malignant transformations occurring in 10-20% of the tumors. Heterologous osteosarcomatous differentiation is a rare and aggressive variant associated with poor prognosis. Case report: A 38-year-old female presented with a mass that she noticed a month ago with increase in size of mass to 10cm at time of presentation. A biopsy of the mass showed a fibroepithelial lesion with focal areas of stromal overgrowth, accompanied by stromal hypercellularity without evidence of nuclear pleomorphism, mitotic activity, necrosis and heterogenous elements most likely a benign phyllodes tumor. Due to …

North Texas Research Forum 2025

BACKGROUND: Management of VA ECMO has substantially evolved over the years. Much literature has been published regarding indications, management, and outcomes; however, limited evidence exists detailing strategies to manage, progress, and wean patients from VA ECMO. We present our experience using a VA ECMO expected progression patient management guideline. METHODS: The VA ECMO Expected Progression Patient Management Guideline, approved on June 1, 2021, consists of six goal-oriented stages with suggestive interventions for managing cardiogenic shock patients undergoing VA ECMO therapy. Patient characteristics and outcomes were collected retrospectively and compared between March 2019 to May 2021 (VA Non-Expected Progression group) and …

There’S A Qr Code For That: Trauma Performance Improvement, Patient Safety, And Peer Review, April Miller, Luis Taveras, Elizabeth Kim, Kathy Galt

North Texas Research Forum 2025

In preparation for our facility’s initial ACS verification visit, a Trauma Consultative Site visit in 2021 identified the need for a streamlined process to communicate issues to the Trauma Program that were recognized during patient care. This was especially true on weekends and nights when issues were most likely to occur. A recent literature review revealed implementation of electronic communication tools increased reporting of performance improvement and patient safety (PIPS) events and improved tracking and resolution of events. The authors of that study used a virtual chatroom accessible from cell phone to post PIPS events. One perceived drawback to this …

Anti-Pd-1 Monoclonal Antibody Induced Diabetic Ketoacidosis In Melanoma, Boney Lapsiwala, Jacqueline Bekhit, Indira Tata, Vibhuti Veeranna

North Texas Research Forum 2025

Background: Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), including pembrolizumab, are increasingly used in cancer therapy, particularly for melanoma. While effective, these agents are associated with various immune-related adverse events (IRAEs), including endocrine disorders like diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). This report aims to contribute to the understanding of pembrolizumab-induced DKA, especially in patients with pre-existing prediabetes. Case Presentation: A 78-year-old male with a history of melanoma, prediabetes, and other comorbidities developed DKA after 1.5 years of pembrolizumab treatment. He presented with symptoms of weakness, thirst, dry mouth, and diarrhea, alongside severe hyperglycemia and metabolic acidosis. Diagnostic workup confirmed DKA, and his clinical improvement followed …

Presentations Of Cutaneous Disease In Various Skin Pigmentations: Keloids, Marshall Hall, Alyssa Forsyth, Paige Loux, Henry Lim, Christian Scheufele, Garrett Furth, Michael Carletti, Stephen Weis

North Texas Research Forum 2025

Introduction: Keloids are benign, firm nodules resulting from excessive scar formation, typically following trauma, but they can also arise spontaneously. They commonly affect areas like the chest, shoulders, back, cheeks, and earlobes. Their growth exceeds the boundaries of the original injury. Keloids can cause discomfort, pruritus, or cosmetic concerns. While they are more prevalent in individuals with darker skin tones, they occur across all age groups and skin types. Differentiating keloids from conditions such as hypertrophic scars, dermatofibromas, acrochordons, inflamed nevi, cysts, and lipomas i s crucial for proper diagnosis and management. This review highlights the diverse clinical presentations of …
