Co-Management by Hospitalists: Opportunities, Challenges, and the Role of Interservice Agreements

Hospitalists are increasingly involved in the care of patients from surgical and medical subspecialities. To provide guidance in creating, leading, or participating in a co-management model, SHM recently released the Building and Sustaining Co-Management Programs in Hospital Medicine: A Technical Report and Operational Guide. This webinar, which features contributors of the SHM resource and experts from across the country and abroad, will focus on the opportunities and challenges in hospitalist co-management models and the role that interservice agreements play in defining roles, workflows, and in conflict resolution.

Rapid Clinical Updates: Challenging Inpatient Scenarios in Atrial Fibrillation

As bedside alarms spike, do you have a ten‑minute plan for AF? In this rapid, case‑driven webinar you will recognize triggers, triage safely, and decide when to cardiovert vs rate control, then manage anticoagulation—balancing DOACs, PCI antithrombotics, and cardioversion timing. You’ll design high‑value discharges, reassess risk after sepsis or bleeding, and optimize outcomes for frailty and falls—and, when OAC isn’t feasible, evaluate LAAO—so you leave with faster, defensible choices.

How to be a Hospitalist Opioid Use Disorder Champion: Improving the Quality of Care for Patients

The hospitalist role in providing effective care for patients with opioid use disorder (OUD) has never been more important. In this webinar, part one of two on the topic, members of the SHM SUD Special Interest Group will discuss the current state of addiction medicine and the roles that hospitalists can take within their practice to overcome barriers and improve the quality of care for their patients with opioid use disorder. Topics will include how to screen patients, building protocols and pathways for treatment, QI projects, orders for discharge, and linkage to care. Additionally, speakers will discuss how to acquire data on the issue and how to start building capacity within the hospitalist team.

The Hospitalist's Role in Ensuring Optimal Nutrition for Hospitalized Patients

Ensuring optimal nutrition for the hospitalized patient is a complex issue fraught with several pitfalls for clinicians as they asses the patient’s nutritional status and determine the caloric needs and appropriate delivery method. Many factors need to be considered when creating this patient-specific plan. The following activity discusses these issues and outlines the various dietary formulations (ie, oral, enteral nutrition, and parenteral nutrition). Step-by-step guidance for how to implement a nutritional plan for the different types of hospitalized patients that hospitalists encounter also is provided.

Rapid Clinical Updates: Delirium and Inpatient Psychotropics

Bedside seconds matter—can you detect delirium before it spirals? In this rapid update, synthesize current evidence to detect early with brief screens, implement prevention bundles on rounds, prescribe only when safety demands, and manage QTc, interactions, and de-prescribing at discharge. Apply practical workflows that prevent harm and sharpen team decisions on your next shift for safer, more efficient inpatient care.

Rapid Clinical Updates: No Rest for the Admitted: Tackling Insomnia in the Hospital

This session will focus on understanding factors that drive insomnia in the acute inpatient setting, how this affects your patients, and how to better manage the issue of acute inpatient insomnia. The presenters will address the latest research on the science of inpatient sleep, non-pharmacologic sleep protocols, pharmacological sleep aids and examine practices that will help your patients (and hopefully your nocturnists) have a silent night.

Rapid Clinical Updates: Navigating the Management of Incidental/Subsegmental Pulmonary Emboli

CT just flagged a tiny subsegmental PE—treat or watch? In this case-based live Q&A with experts, you will define ISSPE, recognize key imaging features, and risk-stratify patients to decide when anticoagulation is warranted and when structured surveillance is safer. We translate major guidelines into a practical protocol and interpret emerging data and trials so you finish ready to apply bedside decisions with confidence.

Rapid Clinical Updates: End-of-Life Care in the Hospital

Bedside clarity cuts through crisis: identify who needs a serious-illness conversation using the surprise question, ePrognosis, and time in bed/chair; communicate with patient-tested language, including clear recommendations and “sick enough to die” when it fits; deprescribe wisely in the final months; implement focused protocols for delirium, dyspnea, and nausea; and support home-time goals, even when dialysis won’t add days where they matter.
