Pain is probably the most common presenting or associated symptom in patients in the hospital, and patients are often more concerned about being in pain than they are about the primary reason for admission. Pain is a completely subjective experience that is the consequence of the filtering, modulating, and distorting of the afferent nerve activity (i.e., nociceptive input) through the affective (i.e., limbic system) and cognitive processes unique to each individual. The following educational module discusses why postoperative pain requires treatment, outlines methods for performing a proper assessment of pain, provides strategies for utilizing patient-controlled analgesia safely and effectively, and summarizes the use of opioid and non-opioid analgesics in the postoperative setting to help hospitalists improve patients’ quality of recovery and life.

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 cardiac complications are the most widely feared medical issues for the anesthesiologist, surgeon, and medical consultant as they approach a patient in the perioperative period. Only recently have management strategies been addressed in high-quality studies. The following module explains the roles of medical and interventional treatments in lowering perioperative cardiac event rates. This module also discusses the typical presentation of coronary syndromes postoperatively and the management of antiplatelet and cardiac medications.

This session is presented by Jennifer Woodard, MD and Babar Ali Khan, MD. Our moderator is Joseph Sweigart, MD, FHM, SFHM.
This session will discuss the burden of delirium among hospitalized patients, current preventive and therapeutic approaches to delirium, and the long-term impact of delirium. We will also discuss strategies for prevention of delirium in the hospital setting and how to recognize delirium in hospitalized patients, as well as pearls and pitfalls of pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic strategies to manage delirium and behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSD). At the end of the presentation, the audience will be able to identify delirium, assess its severity, and appreciate the long-term adverse consequences of delirium.

SummaryDuring this webinar we will share key findings from the 2024 Hospital Medicine Workforce Experience Report, which explores the intersection of workplace structures and leadership support and professional fulfillment and burnout amongst hospitalists. Attendees will leave the webinar understanding how to promote wellbeing for themselves, during one-on-one interactions with team members, and across teams.

Atrial fibrillation is the most common arrhythmia in the postoperative period. It is important that hospitalists understand the current management of postoperative atrial fibrillation (AF) because it is a frequent reason for consultation. Postoperative AF after noncardiac surgery has been associated with risk of thromboembolism, myocardial infarction, and mortality. The following module addresses the incidence, natural history, risk factors, prevention, clinical significance, evaluation, and management of newly diagnosed postoperative AF after non-cardiothoracic surgery.

This session is presented by Marci Laudenslager, MD, MHS, DABOM and Lily Ackermann, MD, ScM, FHM. Our moderator is Ebrahim Barkoudah, MD, FACP, MPH, SFHM.
Obesity is projected to affect more than 50% of Americans by 2030 though, despite this epidemic, obesity remains chronically undertreated. Highly effective anti-obesity medications (e.g. GLP-1 receptor agonists) have revolutionized the landscape of obesity treatment and have the potential to close the obesity care gap. Participants will learn evidence-based obesity care strategies relevant for the hospitalized patient including how to manage GLP-1 receptor agonists. We will additionally discuss the broader societal impact of GLP-1s and review practical strategies to reduce weight bias and stigma in healthcare systems.

This session explores cutting-edge interventions for end-stage heart failure patients, including mechanical circulatory support devices, cardiac transplantation evaluation criteria, and palliative care integration. We'll discuss patient selection for advanced therapies, review post-intervention management protocols, and examine recent outcome data. Case-based scenarios will illustrate decision-making pathways and multidisciplinary team approaches to optimize patient outcomes in this complex population.

Join us for a special session on Cardio-Renal-Metabolic Disease and Care Models for Hospital Medicine. We are honored to have an internationally renowned expert to present the latest practice changing research that significantly impacts patient care. We will review the latest clinical trials and how they impact patient care and guideline-recommended use of nonsteroidal mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (nsMRAs) for managing cardio-kidney-metabolic (CKM) conditions. There will be a review of the latest on the novel use of nsMRAs in patients with type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and CKD. We will discuss implications for inpatients and starting GDMT including the latest on the new nsMRAs in managing patients with heart failure, type 2 diabetes, and CKD.
