A Guide to Applying Quality improvement to Healthcare Five PrinciplesHealth Catalyst
Healthcare is an art and a science. What many in the industry don’t understand is that systems and processes can coexist with personalized care. Quality improvement methods can be as effective in healthcare as they have been in other industries (e.g., agriculture, manufacturing, etc.).
Quality improvement in healthcare is not just achievable, it’s an absolute necessity given the amount of wasteful spending in the U.S. on healthcare. Organizations can reduce this wasteful spending while improving their processes by applying these five guiding principles:
Facilitate adoption through hands-on improvement projects.
Define quality and get agreement.
Measure for improvement, not accountability.
Use a quality improvement framework and PDSA cycles.
Learn from variation in data.
By using these principles and starting small, organizations can quicken the pace of quality improvement in healthcare.

It then provides definitions and key elements of collaborative learning, cooperative learning, team-based learning, case-based learning, and problem-based learning. Research cited finds active learning increases content retention and develops problem-solving skills compared to passive lectures. Barriers to implementing active learning include instructor resistance to change and perceptions of increased workload.
Tucson Medical Center Faculty Edu PPT #7 - Guidelines for teaching EBM in you...TucsonMedicalCenter
Ryan is a first-year resident who presents clinical cases to his attending physician, Dr. Waters, without thoroughly researching the medical literature. When asked about his research process, Ryan replies that he primarily uses UpToDate, which Dr. Waters feels lacks depth. To encourage Ryan to become a more self-directed learner, Dr. Waters could have Ryan identify his own learning needs, develop a research plan, and review outcomes - the key steps of self-directed learning. Dr. Waters could also emphasize incorporating principles of evidence-based medicine to critically evaluate sources and frame answerable clinical questions.

Dr. Waters could also role model searching medical literature and emphasize evidence-based medicine principles to help Ryan frame answerable clinical questions and critically appraise the evidence.
Learning to "SEE": Using Direct Observation in Teaching TraineesTucsonMedicalCenter
1. Direct observation of trainees is important for assessing clinical skills, providing feedback to help them improve, and reinforcing that their work is meaningful.
2. When observing trainees, the observer should minimize distractions, avoid intrusions, and be prepared with specific behaviors to focus on, such as communication skills and patient interactions.
3. Effective applications of direct observation include distinguishing parts of clinical encounters, observing hallway interactions, and focusing on behaviors rather than judgments to provide structured feedback afterwards.
This document provides information on engaging in the scholarship of teaching and learning (SoTL). It defines SoTL and discusses how clinical work becomes scholarship. The document outlines the steps in educational research and compares this to evidence-based medicine. Resources for SoTL projects are provided, including relevant groups and individuals. Examples of SoTL projects are given. Glassick's six elements of scholarship are described. Finally, a suggested timeline is provided for developing a scholarly teaching project.
Active learning is any instructional method that engages students in the learning process through meaningful activities and requires students to think about what they are doing. It is contrasted with traditional lectures where students passively receive information. Collaborative learning refers to instructional methods where students work together in small groups toward a common goal. Cooperative learning is a structured form of group work where students pursue common goals while being assessed individually, focusing on cooperative incentives rather than competition. Team-based learning allows a single instructor to conduct multiple small groups simultaneously through repeating sequences of preparation, readiness assurance, and application of concepts. Case-based learning uses factually based, complex problems to stimulate discussion and analysis, while problem-based learning introduces problems at the
Finding solutions for problems associated with clinical teachingTucsonMedicalCenter
This document provides guidance on addressing problems that can arise when teaching trainees and students in clinical practice. It recommends defining clear expectations and performance standards, regularly assessing the learner's self-evaluation, and using the "ABCD&Es" approach to handle issues. This involves carefully assessing problems, clarifying expectations, accurately diagnosing the underlying cause as a knowledge, skill, or behavioral issue, developing a mutual intervention plan, and evaluating its effectiveness. The document also discusses how to address attitudinal problems and offers confrontation techniques to keep issues small and resolved in a direct but non-personal manner. The overall goal is to implement a systematic approach to identifying and solving teaching-related problems.
The document provides guidelines for preceptors to effectively evaluate learners' clinical performance. It outlines collecting data from multiple sources during the rotation, reviewing the data using an established competency framework, and determining the learner's competency level. At the end of the rotation, preceptors should prepare for a final evaluation meeting by reviewing evaluations and having the learner self-assess. The evaluation should be both written and verbal, focus on improvements made, and fulfill due process procedures. Sample written comments address the learner's medical knowledge, skills, attitudes, and overall strengths and weaknesses.
The Balancing Act: Teaching Responsibilities vs Clinical ProductivityTucsonMedicalCenter
This document provides strategies for preceptors to efficiently balance clinical responsibilities and teaching learners. It recommends involving staff in preparing for learners and selecting focused patients. During visits, anticipatory precepting, wave scheduling, and orienting learners are suggested. After visits, developing learning plans, discussing efficiency, and involving learners in workload reduction are proposed. The goal is providing a safe yet timely learning environment for learners and patients.
The document describes the One Minute Preceptor (OMP) model, which is a 5-step approach for structured clinical teaching encounters lasting 5 minutes or less. The 5 steps are: 1) Get a commitment from the learner, 2) Probe for supporting evidence, 3) Teach general rules, 4) Reinforce what was done right, and 5) Correct mistakes. Using these microskills allows the preceptor to identify knowledge gaps and focus teaching on the learner's needs. Examples and non-examples are provided for each step to illustrate its proper use. The document also provides tips for effectively applying the OMP model in difficult teaching situations.
SNAPPS: An Innovative Method to Facilitate Clinical Case PresentationsTucsonMedicalCenter
1. The SNAPPS model is a learner-centered approach to case presentations consisting of 6 steps: Summarize, Narrow, Analyze, Probe, Plan, and Select.
2. It shifts the preceptor's role from expert to facilitator by having them talk less and guide the learning conversation in response to trainee questions.
3. Trainees take a more active role by elaborating their thinking, expressing uncertainties, and leading the case discussion according to the 6 steps.
Guidelines for Teaching Evidence-Based Medicine in Your PracticeTucsonMedicalCenter
Ryan, a first-year resident, lacks depth in his clinical presentations and relies solely on UpToDate without referencing appropriate medical literature. Dr. Waters encourages Ryan to be more self-directed by following the process of evidence-based medicine (EBM). EBM involves integrating individual clinical expertise with the best external evidence from studies. Dr. Waters can role model EBM for Ryan by completing self-directed learning activities that include formulating answerable clinical questions, efficiently searching medical literature, and critically appraising evidence. Nonadherence to practice guidelines is a major barrier to successfully applying EBM.
How to Create a Learning Environment that is Active, Challenging and SupportiveTucsonMedicalCenter
The document provides tips for clinical preceptors to create a supportive learning environment and promote active learning. It emphasizes establishing an open and trusting relationship, involving students actively in patient care, and capitalizing on role modeling. Specific tips include learning students' names, making eye contact, addressing questions, assigning responsibilities, asking questions that require justification, and recognizing both formal and informal lessons modeled.
This document provides guidance on giving effective constructive feedback to trainees. It emphasizes the importance of feedback for learning and outlines the three levels of feedback: Level 1 involves objectively describing the observed behavior, Level 2 involves sharing one's personal reaction, and Level 3 involves predicting outcomes. The "Ask-Tell-Ask" approach is recommended, which involves asking the trainee for a self-assessment, telling them the observed feedback including positives and areas for improvement, and asking for their understanding and future plans. Video vignettes demonstrate examples of using this approach. The document stresses the value of feedback for learning and reinforcing good performance.

Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

Basavarajeeyam is an important text for ayurvedic physician belonging to andhra pradehs. It is a popular compendium in various parts of our country as well as in andhra pradesh. The content of the text was presented in sanskrit and telugu language (Bilingual). One of the most famous book in ayurvedic pharmaceutics and therapeutics. This book contains 25 chapters called as prakaranas. Many rasaoushadis were explained, pioneer of dhatu druti, nadi pareeksha, mutra pareeksha etc. Belongs to the period of 15-16 century. New diseases like upadamsha, phiranga rogas are explained.
Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune DiseaseHealth Advances
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.

“Thinking and problem-solving occur not when
answering a question posed by a teacher, but when
attempting to solve a problem important to the
learner.” - John Dewey
18. A teaching hospital of
Harvard Medical School
Probe for Supporting Evidence
• Helps learner engage in clinical reasoning
– Learners asked to think out loud
• Allows the preceptor to identify knowledge
gaps and model clinical reasoning
– “What major findings led to your diagnosis?”
– “Is there anything else we should be concerned
about?”
– “What were two other diagnoses you
considered and why did you eliminate them?”
• Uncovers surface vs deeper learning
19. A teaching hospital of
Harvard Medical School
Ask the Right Question
Five types of questions:
1. Factual – When did the patient’s abdominal pain
start?
2. Broadening – What are other potential causes of
this patient’s abdominal pain?
3. Justifying – What supports your diagnosis?
4. Hypothetical – If the patient were immuno-
compromised, how would this change your
diagnosis?
5. Alternative – What would be the advantage or
disadvantage of PPI and watchful waiting vs.
endoscopy?
From Whitman and Schwenk, In Alguire et al. Teaching in Your Office, 2001
20. A teaching hospital of
Harvard Medical School
Promote Thinking and Problem Solving
• Create supportive environment
• Model critical thinking
• Pose question and pause for > 4 seconds
• Involve all learners in problem solving
• If learners hesitate or do not answer, ask
them to go back to the basics and think
out loud with you:
“This is a complex case. Let’s go back
to what we learned yesterday…”
21. A teaching hospital of
Harvard Medical School
Teach General Rules
• Limit key points
• Evidence-based
• Link knowledge to similar cases
• Extend teaching— Use “What if?”
“Why?” and “How” questions:
o“What if the patient had renal dysfunction?”
o“Why do you think the infection progressed so rapidly?”
o“How does this patient’s chest pain compare to the patient
yesterday who was having an MI?”
22. A teaching hospital of
Harvard Medical School
Reinforce What Was Right
• Builds confidence and increases motivation
• Promotes nascent skills
• Facilitates ability to give negative feedback
• Instead of:
– “Strong work” or “Nice job”
– Try: “By keeping a broad differential and
analyzing all of the data available you were
able to make the correct diagnosis.”
23. A teaching hospital of
Harvard Medical School
Correct Mistakes
• Appropriate time and place
• Allow learner to critique own performance
• Reinforce positives and be kind
• Avoid vague and judgmental language
• Describe what went wrong and how to
correct it

Importance of Feedback
• Receiving specific, relevant feedback is
essential for learning in clinical
environment
• Providing feedback can seem
challenging, but is one of most important
ways to demonstrate interest in learners
• Establish an environment where positive
feedback and suggestions for
improvement are done consistently
42. A teaching hospital of
Harvard Medical School
How to Give Effective Feedback
• Collect information on student’s
performance so you can provide specific
examples of both positive behaviors and
suggestions for improvement
• Balance praise with suggestions for
improvement
• When correcting someone, focus on the
specific behavior, not the individual
43. A teaching hospital of
Harvard Medical School
How to Give Effective Feedback
• Time feedback carefully, assess person’s
ability to receive it
• Explore learner’s own perspective on his
or her performance
• Avoid comparison to other learners
• Follow up with learners frequently for
ongoing discussion and further
questions
44. A teaching hospital of

Small Group Discussion Techniques
• Set clear expectations for the discussion
– Today we are going to discuss how to deliver
difficult news to a patient.
– I am going to ask you to share with the group
how you were taught to perform your first
procedure.
• Ask about the learners’ interests and needs:
– Are there particular questions or areas that you
want to make sure we discuss today?
50. A teaching hospital of
Harvard Medical School
Small Group Discussion Techniques
• Establish a safe learning environment
– Encourage questions and use learners’ names
– Be willing to say, “I don’t know, let’s look that
up.”
– Think out loud with the group: “When I am
confronted with this issue, I find it helpful to…”
• Encourage learner interactivity and
problem solving
51. A teaching hospital of
Harvard Medical School
Small Group Discussion Techniques
• Ask questions that encourage deeper vs surface
level learning:
– What if the patient was 80 y.o. instead of 20?
– When wouldn’t you choose that course of
treatment?
– Why did you choose that answer and not the
other?
– Explain why we can rule out…
52. A teaching hospital of
Harvard Medical School
Summarize and Close the Discussion
• Ask each group member to name one thing
they learned from the discussion or one
thing they are going to change in their
clinical practice
• Leave time for learners to ask clarifying
questions:
• What are some points you would like me to
cover again next time?
53. A teaching hospital of
Harvard Medical School
A Great Case Discussion...
• Starts w/basics, unfolds in bite-sized pieces
• Avoids focus on lab and imaging data too
early; allows full context of patient’s story
• Includes interesting decision points or
clinical pearls
• Teaches general principles by changing
variables in case
• Encourages a discussion of cost-effective,
value-added care
54. A teaching hospital of
Harvard Medical School
Thought Question
• Discuss the following challenges when
leading a small group discussion:
– A student that won’t participate
– A learner that dominates the discussion
– A particularly quiet group
– Unpredictable tangents in the
conversation
55. A teaching hospital of
Harvard Medical School
Thought Question
• Often your small group will have
residents and students at various
learning levels (e.g. the “one room
school house.”)
– What are strategies to engage all levels
of learners at the table?
– What pitfalls do you need to avoid?
56. A teaching hospital of
Harvard Medical School
Thought Question
• Sometimes a group discussion can
turn into a lecture, or at the opposite
end of the spectrum, dissolve into a
conversation completely off topic.
– What are the most effective strategies to
engage the group in a true discussion on
the topic you wish to teach?
58. A teaching hospital of

How to Teach Procedures
• To many, teaching procedures is
one of most rewarding aspects of
clinical education.
• Several key principles:
– start with the basics
– allow opportunity for successful
completion of procedure
– preserve well-being of patient and
student
59. A teaching hospital of
Harvard Medical School
How to Teach Procedures
• Careful preparation is key
• Learn prior experiences of the learner
– Seen one? Tried one? What questions
do you have?
• Review clinical indications and
implications, not only the technical steps
• Review potential complications and how
to minimize them
60. A teaching hospital of
Harvard Medical School
How to Teach Procedures
• Review performance objectives
• Review equipment
• Review anatomy and physiology
• Review technique
• Anticipate questions
• Ensure preparation
– Consider videos, models, diagrams, simulations
61. A teaching hospital of
Harvard Medical School
How to Teach Procedures
• Use a systematic approach – review of
equipment, practice, speak steps aloud
• Always be mindful of patient’s experience
• Give thoughtful corrections as needed
– “Let me show you a helpful trick here”
– “I am going to adjust the position of your
hand”
• Understand when appropriate to take
over procedure
62. A teaching hospital of
Harvard Medical School
How to Teach Procedures
• Debrief after the procedure:
– Be specific and descriptive with
