Association of Burnout With Primary Care Clinician Perception of Team-Based Scheduling Support.

Introduction: Primary care clinician burnout is pervasive and detrimental. How components of teamwork and clinic culture might contribute to burnout remains unsettled.

Objective: To examine associations between primary care clinician perceptions of specific components of teamwork and of organizational culture, and perceived stress and burnout.

Primary Care Provider Demographics and Engagement in Interprofessional Collaboration.

Introduction: Interprofessional care contributes to all components of the quadruple aim. While previous research has identified many facilitators and barriers to the provision of interprofessional care, whether demographic differences might influence the extent to which providers collaborate interprofessionally remains unknown.

Methods: Using electronic health record data, we characterized the level of primary care providers' (PCPs') interprofessional collaboration based on the percent of their patients who had a visit with an interprofessional team member over a 14-month period.

Enhancing the "What" and "Why" of the Pharmacists' Patient Care Process With the "How" of Clinical Reasoning.

Clinical reasoning is integral to the provision of patient-centered care as outlined in the Pharmacists' Patient Care Process (PPCP). However, the PPCP was not created to foster clinical reasoning in student pharmacists and cannot be the sole tool used to characterize or cultivate these skills. This article describes elements of clinical reasoning, the relationship between clinical reasoning and PPCP, and concepts from the clinical reasoning literature that should inform the teaching of clinical reasoning skills.

How Comprehensive Medication Management Contributes to Foundational Elements of Primary Care.

Pharmacists are more often being recognized as a critical component of the primary care team. Previous literature has not clearly made the connection to how pharmacists and comprehensive medication management (CMM) contribute to recognized foundational elements of primary care. In this reflection, we examine how the delivery of CMM both supports and aligns with Starfield's 4 Cs of Primary Care.

Primary Care Providers Believe That Comprehensive Medication Management Improves Their Work-Life.

Purpose: In primary care, clinical pharmacists often deliver a service called comprehensive medication management (CMM). While research has identified that CMM positively influences most aspects of the Quadruple Aim, it is unclear how CMM-both the service and the role of the pharmacist-may influence the primary care provider's (PCP) clinical work, professional satisfaction, and burnout (described here as PCP's work-life). We aimed to identify how PCPs perceive CMM impacts their work-life.

Pharmacy student involvement in student-run free clinics in the United States.

Introduction: The role of pharmacy students in student-run free clinics (SRFCs) across the United States has not been well-defined. This study sought to assess the level of involvement and roles of pharmacy students in SRFCs as well as their interprofessional collaboration.

Methods: An online survey was sent to each pharmacy school registered with the American Association of Colleges of Pharmacy (AACP).

Experience with the script concordance test to develop clinical reasoning skills in pharmacy students.

Background: The script concordance test (SCT) is used to assess clinical reasoning and was originally developed for medical learners. The Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education (ACPE) endorses the need for pharmacy students to develop clinical reasoning skills, but there is little documentation of use of the SCT for pharmacy learners.

Educational Activity: A script concordance test activity was designed for a diabetes and metabolic syndrome pharmacotherapy course.

Team work and collaborative practice agreements among pharmacists and nurse practitioners.

Objectives: The authors share their knowledge about partnering and establishing collaborative practice agreements with nurse practitioners. State laws and regulations were reviewed that affect pharmacists' ability to fully partner with nurse practitioners.

Summary: Nurse practitioners' role in primary care is growing, and, in many states, nurse practitioners practice independently.

Comprehensive medication management services: benefits for seniors with diabetes.

Authors from the University of Minnesota College of Pharmacy highlight the role that pharmacists can play in care optimization for seniors with chronic conditions.

The effects of an informational video on patient knowledge, satisfaction and compliance with venous thromboembolism prophylaxis: a pilot study.

Objective: Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is the leading cause of preventable death in hospitalized patients. Educational videos have been effectively used to increase patient satisfaction and knowledge. This study examined possible benefits of an educational video about VTE.

A comparison of the risk of QT prolongation among SSRIs.

Objective: To report QT prolongation potential in selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) in order to advise clinicians on safe use of SSRIs other than citalopram in light of citalopram warnings.

Data Sources: Primary literature and case reports were identified through a systematic search. Data from drug manufacturers, package inserts, and the ArizonaCERT database were also utilized.

Strong H...F hydrogen bonds as synthons in polymeric quantum magnets: structural, magnetic, and theoretical characterization of [Cu(HF2)(pyrazine)2]SbF6, [Cu2F(HF)(HF2)(pyrazine)4](SbF6)2, and [CuAg(H3F4)(pyrazine)5](SbF6)2.

Three Cu(2+)-containing coordination polymers were synthesized and characterized by experimental (X-ray diffraction, magnetic susceptibility, pulsed-field magnetization, heat capacity, and muon-spin relaxation) and electronic structure studies (quantum Monte Carlo simulations and density functional theory calculations). [Cu(HF(2))(pyz)(2)]SbF(6) (pyz = pyrazine) (1a), [Cu(2)F(HF)(HF(2))(pyz)(4)](SbF(6))(2) (1b), and [CuAg(H(3)F(4))(pyz)(5)](SbF(6))(2) (2) crystallize in either tetragonal or orthorhombic space groups; their structures consist of 2D square layers of [M(pyz)(2)](n+) that are linked in the third dimension by either HF(2)(-) (1a and 1b) or H(3)F(4)(-) (2). The resulting 3D frameworks contain charge-balancing SbF(6)(-) anions in every void.

KCd2[N(CN)2]5(H2O)4: an enmeshed honeycomb grid.

The title compound, poly[potassium [diaquapenta-micro(2)-dicyanamido-dicadmium(II)] dihydrate], {K[Cd(2)(C(2)N(3))(5)(H(2)O)(2)].2H(2)O}(n), contains two-dimensional anionic sheets of {[Cd(2){N(CN)(2)}(H(2)O)(2)](-)}(n) with a modified (6,3)-net (layer group cm2m, No. 35).
