The "Enlightened" Use of Ketamine in Hospitalized Patients

The "Enlightened" Use of Ketamine in Hospitalized Patients - The What, When, Why, Where, How!

Rethink inpatient analgesia with a case-based, protocol-driven deep dive into sub‑anesthetic ketamine. Apply mechanisms that matter to transform care, use PK to design dependable dosing, and deliver rapid relief with fewer opioids. Manage psychomimetic and cardiovascular effects safely, and align teams on policies, order sets, and ICU‑to‑ward workflows to accelerate recovery in acute and cancer‑related pain.

Rapid Clinical Updates: Updates in Opiate Use Disorder: Advances in Therapies Across All Ages

Fentanyl-era care moves fast—so will you. In this rapid, case-based update spanning adolescents to older adults, apply evidence to start MOUD confidently, stabilize with high‑dose buprenorphine or methadone, and sustain recovery with extended‑release options. Design micro‑inductions, critique naltrexone timing, and integrate harm‑reduction to reduce mortality and stigma, then ensure safe handoffs that improve outcomes beyond discharge.

Supporting Patients and Care Teams in Responding to and Reducing In-Hospital Substance Use

Inside the hospital, substance use often signals unmet pain, withdrawal, or stigma—not defiance. Through cases from two systems, you’ll identify drivers, recognize risk, and demonstrate non‑punitive, harm‑reduction responses. We describe evidence-based care, including medication for addiction treatment, and lead interprofessional planning with nurses to design and evaluate patient‑centered policies that reduce use, build trust, and improve outcomes.

DEA Requirement - OUD and SUD Education

The US Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) recently announced updated rules for all registered clinicians. Starting June 27, 2023, clinicians applying or renewing their DEA registration will need to make a one-time attestation that they have attended at least eight hours of approved training. This will be due at the time of renewal, which will vary by clinician. As an accredited CME provider, the Society of Hospital Medicine has compiled a list of sessions that meet this requirement. By registering for thia free-to-member curriculum below, you will gain access to all sessions, including sessions otherwise only available through paid On Demand products.

Managing Pain in Postoperative Patients: What the Hospitalist Needs to Know

Sharper recoveries start at the bedside. In this case-rich activity, assess pain precisely across ages and cognition, identify mechanisms, and implement multimodal plans: acetaminophen/NSAIDs, regional techniques, and targeted adjuvants to limit opioids. Titrate and rotate using equianalgesic principles, avoid meperidine and long-acting agents, set PCA lockouts without basal in opioid-naive, and monitor outcomes to curb delirium and elevate satisfaction.

Inpatient Management of Opioid Use Disorder

Eighty thousand opioid deaths demand action on the wards. Led by Addiction Medicine hospitalists, this on‑demand course shows you how to initiate buprenorphine confidently, including micro‑induction for fentanyl exposure; identify and manage precipitated withdrawal; screen for xylazine and apply harm reduction. You’ll synthesize protocols, refine dosing, and leave ready to design safer inpatient pathways and improve outcomes.

How to be a Hospitalist Opioid Use Disorder Champion: OUD Consult Services

The hospitalist role in providing effective care for patients with opioid use disorder (OUD) has never been more important. In this webinar, we will focus on the creation of OUD consult services. In addition to the structure of these service lines, we will explore the role that culture plays in OUD treatment. Participants will understand how to assess readiness for consult services within their own institutions, develop support and find partners, define metrics, and activate the model. We will also discuss various funding opportunities for these programs.
