Medicine
APA Special Interest Group
Chair:
Daniel Rauch, rauch@aecom.yu.edu
The
Hospital Medicine SIG provides an opportunity for
providers dedicated to the care of hospitalized patients
to discuss the latest updates in research, education and
program development.
Now in our fourth year, this year’s meeting
promises to be another exciting and interactive session.
Our
agenda will include:
-
Updates
from the previous year in Pediatric Hospital Medicine
-
Presentation/discussion
on Disaster Preparedness by our colleagues from
Florida
-
Poster
session
-
Small
group discussion groups that will focus on research
(including an update on the PRIS network) and
education.
-
Latest
updates on the Pediatric Hospital Medicine 2005
Conference in Denver this summer
We
are also excited to have the Pediatric Resident SIG join
us for a joint discussion on the role of Pediatric
Hospitalists in residency education and career planning
for those interested in Pediatric Hospital Medicine.

Simulation Technology—What Is It and What Can It Do for
You?
PAS Educational Workshop
Leader:
Joseph O. Lopreiato, Bethesda, MD; Co-leaders: Michael
Fitzgerald, Hilary M. Haftel, Mary D. Patterson
Medical simulation technology is a rapidly expanding
area of education in medicine. This expansion is due in
part to an expectation that training programs will assess
and document clinical skills over a wide range of
competencies. Many medical schools and some residency
programs are using simulation technologies to assess
clinical skills, professionalism, information gathering,
communication and trauma/resuscitation skills. This
workshop is designed for medical professionals involved in
the education of medical students, residents and fellows.
It is directed to those with an interest in the
educational potential of simulation technology and will
also be useful for those interested in learning about the
practical aspects of simulator program development.
Objectives:
-
Be able to describe the capabilities and optimal
applications of the various types of medical
simulation in the pediatric environment.
-
Understand the elements required to develop and
sustain a successful program including issues of
personnel, utilization and financing.
Method of Instruction: Minilectures and
demonstrations will be used to introduce participants to
the full range of simulation technology including
standardized patients, mechanical simulators and
computer-based virtual reality; videos and DVDs, as well
as actual simulation technology, will be used as feasible.
This will serve as a springboard for discussion of the
practical aspects of a patient simulator program. Large
and small group activities will explore how these
technologies may be utilized in assessing clinical skills,
evaluating competencies and evaluating the progress of
trainees. We will also address the elements required to
develop and sustain a successful simulation program
including issues of personnel, utilization and financing.
Hands-on demonstrations of hardware and software elements
used in simulation will allow participants to judge which
simulation technologies would best serve their needs.
Target Audience: Trainee, junior faculty, mid-level
faculty

7214—Using
After-Hours Hospitalists To Observe Residents in Action: A
Workshop in Observation, Feedback and Competency
Evaluation
PAS Educational Workshop
Leader:
Kenneth Pituch, Ann Arbor, MI; Co-leaders: Erin Brackbill,
Jonathan Fliegel, Jennifer Meyers, John Schmidt
Since developing an extended-hours service, members
of the University of Michigan Pediatric Hospitalist
Program have been using evening and night-time admissions
to observe house staff "in action," as they
admit pediatric patients to the ward service. Through
videotaped clinical vignettes and role playing, workshop
participants will learn and practice techniques used to
observe, give feedback and evaluate competency in
interview skills, examination skills and problem-solving
skills. In small groups, participants can focus on one of
the following areas: (1) Developing faculty in techniques
of observation and feedback, (2) developing an evening
hospitalist program with time and support for education
and (3) evaluating the competency assessment
process—research questions and opportunities for
clinical scholar-educators.
Objectives:
-
Participants will learn an observation and feedback
technique.
-
Participants will identify and learn ways to improve
observation, feedback and competency evaluation at
their own programs.
Method of Instruction: Videotaped and role-played
clinical encounters, small and large group discussions.
Target Audience: Trainee, junior faculty, mid-level
faculty.
