Prevention And Health Promotion

A growing number of patients and consumers are seeking integrative medicine (IM) approaches as a result of increasing complex medical needs and a greater emphasis on prevention and health promotion. Health-care professionals need to have knowledge of the evidence-based IM resources that are safe and available to patients. Medical institutions have acknowledged the need for education and training in various IM modalities and whole-health approaches in medical curricula. There is a strong need to develop and incorporate well-structured IM curricula across all levels of learning and practice within medicine. This article provides an example of the development, implementation, impact, and assessment of IM education curricula across all learner levels at a large academic medical center.

Purpose The purpose of this study is to demonstrate how action learning can be practically applied to quality and safety challenges at a large academic medical health system and become fundamentally integrated with an institution’s broader approach to quality and safety. Design/methodology/approach The authors describe how the fundamental principles of action learning have been applied to advancing quality and safety in health care at a large academic medical institution. The authors provide an academic contextualization of action learning in health care and then transition to how this concept can be practically applied to quality and safety by providing detailing examples at the unit, cross-functional and executive levels. Findings The authors describe three unique approaches to applying action learning in the comprehensive unit-based safety program, clinical communities and the quality management infrastructure. These examples, individually, provide discrete ways to integrate action learning in the advancement of quality and safety. However, more importantly when combined, they represent how action learning can form the basis of a learning health system around quality and safety. Originality/value This study represents the broadest description of action learning applied to the quality and safety literature in health care and provides detailed examples of its use in a real-world context.

BACKGROUND Telemedicine use vastly expanded during the Covid-19 pandemic, with uncertain impact on cardiovascular care quality. OBJECTIVE We sought to examine the association between telemedicine use and blood pressure (BP) control. METHODS This is a retrospective cohort study of 32,727 adult patients with hypertension (HTN) seen in primary care and cardiology clinics at an urban, academic medical center from February to December, 2020. The primary outcome was poor BP control, defined as having no BP recorded OR if the last recorded BP was ≥140/90 mmHg. Multivariable logistic regression was used to assess the association between telemedicine use during the study period (none, 1 telemedicine visit, 2+ telemedicine visits) and poor BP control, adjusting for demographic and clinical characteristics. RESULTS During the study period, no BP was recorded for 486/20,745 (2.3%) patients with in-person visits only, for 1,863/6,878 (27.1%) patients with 1 telemedicine visit, and for 1,277/5,104 (25.0%) patients with 2+ telemedicine visits. After adjustment, telemedicine use was associated with poor BP control (odds ratio [OR], 2.06, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.94 to 2.18, p<.001 for 1 telemedicine visit, and OR 2.49, 95% CI 2.31 to 2.68, p<.001 for 2+ telemedicine visits; reference, in-person visit only). This effect disappears when analysis was restricted to patients with at least one recorded BP (OR 0.89, 95% CI 0.83 to 0.95, p=.001 for 1 telemedicine visit, and OR 0.91, 95% CI 0.83 to 0.99, p=.03 for 2+ telemedicine visits). CONCLUSIONS BP is less likely to be recorded during telemedicine visits, but telemedicine use does not negatively impact BP control when BP is recorded. CLINICALTRIAL NA
