Perioperative cardiac complications are the most widely feared medical issues for the anesthesiologist, surgeon, and medical consultant as they approach a patient with the option of surgery. To assess for the preoperative cardiac risk, hospitalists should follow a step-wise algorithm. The following module reviews the risk assessment process and enables the hospitalist to order appropriate preoperative testing.

Perioperative fever has multiple possible etiologies, including infections such as pneumonia, fungal infections, central-line associated infections, and urinary infections. By understanding the typical time frame and common risk factors for each etiology, hospitalists and other perioperative consultants can develop a differential diagnosis for perioperative fever. The following module will provide a general approach for determining the differential diagnosis in patients with a perioperative fever, as well as an outline of the diagnostic and treatment modalities.

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.
- Utilization Management and Clinical Documentation

SummaryAccurate clinical documentation has never been more crucial. Pediatric Hospitalists face a full spectrum of medical conditions in their careers. Regardless of a provider’s level of experience, the addition of new standards and policies, in both number and complexity, necessitate continued education.

SummaryAccurate clinical documentation has never been more crucial. Hospitalists face a full spectrum of medical conditions in their careers. Regardless of a provider’s level of experience, the addition of new standards and policies, in both number and complexity, necessitate continued education. Utilization Management and Clinical Documentation for Hospitalists is an educational program on clinical documentation. It is broken into two modules. The first is a two-part didactic covering the fundamental principles of both utilization management and clinical documentation.

Anticoagulation therapy is associated with increased risk of bleeding, including intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) and gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding, which occurs in up to 7% per patient years with an estimated overall mortality rate of 9%.[1] Additionally, urgent surgery with increased bleeding complications in patients on oral anticoagulation appears to be common but has not been well studied. [2] In this module, we review strategies to manage potentially life-threatening ICH and GI bleeding and minimize the risk of bleeding with urgent surgery in patients on oral anticoagulation.
