Experiences of Participants During In Situ Simulation With a Learner Present.

Background: While in situ simulation (ISS) provides robust value for health care teams, it is less clear how medical learners affect the experiences of other participants.

Methods: This was a single-center qualitative analysis of a community hospital's emergency department ISS program that included medical learners (medical students, family and emergency medicine residents). Focus groups were conducted before and after with nurses, staff physicians, and resident physicians.

Infographics, podcasts, and blogs: a multi-channel, asynchronous, digital faculty experience to improve clinical teaching (MAX FacDev).

Attendance at faculty development events are often limited to those with time and interest, but all clinical teachers should have access to continuing faculty development. A multi-channel, asynchronous, digital faculty experience strategy (MAX FacDev) was used to engage busy emergency medicine (EM) teachers associated with a distributed medical education network involving ten geographically distinct teaching sites. An evidence-informed education bundle on key principles for clinical teaching was developed.

HyperCEST detection of cucurbit[6]uril in whole blood using an ultrashort saturation Pre-pulse train.

Xenon based biosensors have the potential to detect and localize biomarkers associated with a wide variety of diseases. The development and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) characterization of cage molecules which encapsulate hyperpolarized xenon is imperative for the development of these xenon biosensors. We acquired (129) Xe NMR spectra, and magnetic resonance images and a HyperCEST saturation map of cucurbit[6]uril (CB6) in whole bovine blood.

Hyperpolarized and inert gas MRI: the future.

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a potentially ideal imaging modality for noninvasive, nonionizing, and longitudinal assessment of disease. Hyperpolarized (HP) agents have been developed in the past 20 years for MR imaging, and they have the potential to vastly improve MRI sensitivity for the diagnosis and management of various diseases. The polarization of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)-sensitive nuclei other than (1)H (e.
