The Impact Of Art In Medicine Training And Its Effectiveness On Professionalism And Interpersonal Skills: A Prospective Study., Maria Musri, Atif Nehvi, Shireen Chacko, Glenn Eiger, Nazanin Moghbeli

Einstein Health Papers

INTRODUCTION: Internal Medicine residents in The United States of America (USA) need to demonstrate competency in the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) core areas to meet training requirements. Two of these core competencies are professionalism and interpersonal/communication skills. Medical humanities can positively influence trainee development by cultivating these skills. There is limited literature on the use of art-based programs to enhance communication and professionalism skills among residents aside from the original FRAME workshop. We have designed a six-part series called "Using Art for Professionalism and Communication Skills in Medical Education" (UAPCMedEd) that implements visual arts training strategies to …

“Coherent Nonsense”: Lessons Learned From Utilizing Chatgpt For Usmle-Style Anatomy And Pathology Questions, Alexander Macnow, Md, Mhpe

Department of Medical Education Posters

Undergraduate medical education (UME) encounters several challenges, including the need for adequate practice items replicating standardized medical exams like the United States Medical Licensing Examination (USMLE).1 This demand suggests a role for innovative, efficient approaches to item generation. Artificial intelligence (AI) large language models (LLM), like those employed by ChatGPT, present an attractive solution.

Previous authors have investigated ChatGPT’s ability to “pass” high-stakes assessments, such as the USMLE,^2–4 the ophthalmology and radiology board examinations,5,6 and other nations’ certification examinations.⁷ Less literature has been published on ChatGPT’s ability to construct vignette-based single best answer multiple choice items similar to …

Enhancing Cauti Prevention Through Daily Catheter Care Charting, Pre-Packaged Wipes, And Targeted Nursing Education, Alexis Bartolo, Hannah Todd, David Wagner

Scholars Week

Catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTIs) are common healthcare-associated infections that increase patient morbidity, mortality, and healthcare costs. This evidence-based project aims to reduce CAUTIs by implementing daily catheter care charting, using pre-packaged antiseptic wipes, and providing targeted nursing education. These interventions will enhance accountability, improve hygiene practices, and equip nurses with the latest CAUTI prevention techniques. The project evaluates the current catheter care policy, comparing it with evidence-based practices to identify improvements. Guided by Dorothea Orem’s Self-Care Deficit Theory, the proposed policy changes aim to improve patient safety and care quality. By integrating these interventions into routine practice, the project …

Connecting Disciplines: Dermatologists Discuss Skin Cancer Screening In Physical Therapy, Michael T. Robinson, Lindsay Gietzen

Pacific Journal of Health

Background: This study aims to explore dermatologists’ perspectives on the integration of skin cancer screening within physical therapy practice. The hypothesis is that insights from dermatologists can enhance the efficacy and accuracy of skin cancer screening by physical therapists (PTs), thereby improving early detection rates and patient outcomes. Methods: A total of five dermatologists participated in this study, each with between 5 and 18 years of experience and a diverse range of expert opinions and insights. This qualitative study utilized semi-structured interviews with participating dermatologists. The interview questions focused on their knowledge of skin cancer screening, perceptions of its implementation …

Stop The Bleed! Acute Epistaxis Management, Christopher R. Cannell

Lynchburg Journal of Medical Science

Epistaxis, the most common Otolaryngology-related emergency, is responsible for one in 200 emergency department (ED) visits in the United States (US) and one-third of otolaryngology visits.^1,11 Up to 60% of the population will experience epistaxis during their lifetime, and 6% -10 % will require medical intervention.^2,3 Epistaxis occurs in children and adults and has a seasonal variation. Although 85% of nosebleeds are idiopathic, they are more frequent in those on supplemental oxygen, anticoagulation, antiplatelet therapy, and in those with other conditions that may predispose them to bleeding. Most clinicians will encounter patients with acute epistaxis; therefore, it is …

Effective Interventions For Preventing Burnout In Health Education Students, Heidi Vonderheide

Lynchburg Journal of Medical Science

This article aims to investigate effective interventions to reduce burnout in health education students. A comprehensive electronic literature search of PubMed and Google Scholar identified articles discussing the prevalence and effects of burnout in health care providers and students, as well as interventions to reduce burnout and improve the quality of life of health education students. The findings suggest pass-fail grading, physical exercise, mindfulness training, and mental health programming significantly reduce burnout among health education students. Significant variability in both intervention design and outcome measurement highlights the limitations of the findings and underscores the need for future research. Effective burnout …
