Purpose: Professional identity development (PID) has become an important focus of medical education. To date, contributions of basic science education to physician PID have not been broadly explored. This review explores the literature surrounding the contribution of basic science education to the PID of medical learners and interprets findings critically in terms of the landscapes of practice (LoP) framework.

A group of nurse leaders, bedside nurses, and pharmacists formed a medication safety task force to increase compliance with barcode scanning and reduce reported medication errors in which failure to scan was a contributing factor.Three task force members observed nurses' workflow in ICU medication administration.

- The study focused on the prevalence and characteristics of delirium in COVID-19 patients undergoing VV-ECMO, finding that 98% of patients experienced delirium during treatment.
- Delirium onset occurred around day 9 for both survivors and non-survivors, with non-survivors showing longer periods when delirium assessments were not possible and lower sedation scores.
- The duration of delirium correlated with sedation levels and the use of neuromuscular blockers, but overall, delirium duration did not predict in-hospital mortality.
Introduction: Although studies have examined the utility of clinical decision support tools in improving acute kidney injury (AKI) outcomes, no study has evaluated the effect of real-time, personalised AKI recommendations. This study aims to assess the impact of individualised AKI-specific recommendations delivered by trained clinicians and pharmacists immediately after AKI detection in hospitalised patients.
Methods And Analysis: KAT-AKI is a multicentre randomised investigator-blinded trial being conducted across eight hospitals at two major US hospital systems planning to enrol 4000 patients over 3 years (between 1 November 2021 and 1 November 2024).
Problem: Using pass/fail (P/F) course grades may motivate students to perform well enough to earn a passing grade, giving them a false sense of competence and not motivating them to remediate deficiencies. The authors explored whether adding a not yet pass (NYP) grade to a P/F scale would promote students' mastery orientation toward learning.
Approach: The authors captured student outcomes and data on time and cost of implementing the NYP grade in 2021 at the University of Utah School of Medicine.
