Taking a Team Approach: Keep up with the EHR with a Training and Optimization Program.

Objectives: This study aimed to describe the current landscape of electronic health record (EHR) training and optimization programs (ETOPs) and their impact on healthcare workers' (HCWs) experience with the EHR.

Methods: A 72-question electronic survey was developed and distributed to healthcare organization (HCO) leaders in clinical informatics through various channels such as national informatics conferences, social media, and email distribution lists of vendors and informatics associations. The survey collected data on the characteristics, resourcing, approach, and outcomes of ETOPs.

Relationship of exercise capacity and left ventricular dimensions in patients with a normal ejection fraction. An exploratory study.

Objectives: Extreme endurance exercise is known to be associated with an enlargement of the left ventricular (LV) chamber, whereas inactivity results in inverse changes. It is unknown if these dimensional relationships exist in patients.

Methods: We analyzed the relationship of exercise capacity and LV dimension in a cohort of sequential patients with a normal ejection fraction undergoing stress echocardiography.
