Choosing Wisely: Implementing Quality Improvement Projects addressing Choosing Wisely Topics

Mounting evidence shows that the American healthcare system costs too much for the results it achieves in terms of patient outcomes and access. Many different parts of this system need attention, and it can be difficult to know where to begin. However, the inpatient / hospital environment is a “high intensity” healthcare delivery setting, and the “Choosing Wisely” initiative of the American Board of Internal Medicine Foundation (ABIMF) offers a list of low value healthcare practices which make great targets for improvement efforts.

Critical Care for the Hospitalist Series

Many hospitalists provide critical care services without adequate support or training, putting patients at risk and exposing hospitalists to medical liability. This educational series covers common or high-risk clinical scenarios that hospitalists encounter in and out of the intensive care unit.

Neurosurgery for the Hospitalist

Successful neurosurgery co-management requires hospitalists to be familiar with the presentations, disease processes, management, and complications of neurosurgical inpatients. The first section of this activity summarizes common inpatient neurosurgical conditions. The second section prepares the reader to recognize and act on neurosurgical emergencies. The remaining four sections of the activity cover blood pressure management in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage, sodium abnormalities in patients with brain tumors, the use of mannitol vs. dexamethasone, and the perioperative management of anticoagulants, in addition to other topics.

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: 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.

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.
