Exploring clinician perspectives of systems-based practice: A physician training challenge.

Introduction: Systems-based practice (SBP) has been a competency in US graduate medical education for over 20 years, but it is not well implemented. SBP is loosely defined as physician's responsiveness to the larger system of healthcare. The aim of this study was to describe healthcare professionals' perspectives regarding: (1) their knowledge and beliefs about SBP and (2) their beliefs regarding factors in clinical learning environments (CLE) that facilitate or hinder operationalisation and learning of SBP.

Near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) and machine learning as a promising tandem for fast viral detection in serum microsamples: A preclinical proof of concept.

Fast detection of viral infections is a key factor in the strategy for the prevention of epidemics expansion and follow-up. Hepatitis C is paradigmatic within viral infectious diseases and major challenges to elimination still remain. Near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is an inexpensive, clean, safe method for quickly detecting viral infection in transmission vectors, aiding epidemic prevention.

Advancement, barriers and collaboration: the ABC's of addressing challenges and designing solutions between front-line physicians and business-oriented leaders.

Background: The complexity of US healthcare has been increasing for many years, requiring clinicians and learners to understand care delivery systems in addition to clinical sciences. Thus, there has been a major push to educate faculty and trainees on healthcare functionality. This comes as hospitals expand into health systems requiring the help of more sophisticated expertise of departments such as operations excellence when problem-solving.

How a Team Effectiveness Approach to Health Systems Science Can Illuminate Undergraduate Medical Education Outcomes.

Health care delivery requires physicians to operate in teams to successfully navigate complexity in caring for patients and communities. The importance of training physicians early in core concepts of working in teams (i.e.

Promising Practices in US Sponsoring Institutions to Advance Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion in Graduate Medical Education.

Best practices to improve diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) in the biomedical workforce remain poorly understood. The Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education launched the Barbara Ross-Lee, DO, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion award for sponsoring institutions to celebrate efforts to improve DEI in graduate medical education (GME). To identify themes in practices used by award applicants to improve DEI efforts at their institutions, using a qualitative design.
