Description

Hospital Medicine Review 2023

Through a series of one-hour continuing medical education lectures, Hospital Medicine Review covers the clinical complexities, challenges, and complications hospitalists deal with every day. Lectures highlight the hospitalist’s role in co-management of surgical patients, consultation on non-internal-medicine hospitalized patients, and evaluation of inter-hospital transfers.

Authoritative faculty offer guidance for compassionate delivery of prognoses, learning from one’s mistakes, and social determinants of health, and more — all within the hospital setting. Here are just a few of the key-take home points you’ll glean from this online CME program:

Approach to Preoperative Evaluation, Testing, and Medication Management. Optimize the patient’s medical condition but do not say, “Cleared for surgery.”
In-Hospital Infections: Diagnosis and Management. Approach to in-hospital infections requires consideration of the host factors, the recent events and exposures, the possible pathogens involved, and the potential for toxicity or drug reactions with each therapeutic option.
Seizure/Status Epilepticus: Diagnosis and Management. A high index of suspicion is required to appropriately diagnose seizures, epilepsy, and status epilepticus, as there are a variety of manifestations.
Tele-Health for Hospitalists. Tele-hospitalist medicine has been shown to provide clinical excellence, increase access to care, and contribute to patient and provider satisfaction.
