Series SummaryThere is significant variability in the facilitation of transitions of care both in the hospital and out of the hospital to home. While there is some consensus regarding evidence-based interventions to successfully facilitate transitions of care and improve patient outcomes, these interventions are not always reliably implemented.

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is an important complication following cardiac and noncardiac surgery. Up to 18% of hospitalized patients develop AKI, and those who are critically ill have an even higher risk. Comparatively, the incidence of AKI in the perioperative period is 18-47%(1). Patients with even modest increases in their serum creatinine have increases in their mortality, morbidity, length of stay, and hospital costs. Perioperative AKI is associated with an increased risk of sepsis, anemia, coagulopathy, and mechanical ventilation. Notably, mortality is higher in patients with perioperative AKI even after complete renal recovery(1). Perioperative AKI correlates with type of surgical procedure, patient characteristics, volume status, hemodynamics, and exposure to nephrotoxins. Presurgical risk stratification and early risk mitigation is extremely important to avoid injury and need for renal replacement therapy (RRT). The following module defines perioperative AKI, identifies specific risk factors and tools for risk stratification, provides an overview of the workup of perioperative AKI, and evaluates various renal protective strategies that can be implemented during this high-risk period.

Vaccines are being deployed, a faint light now appears on the horizon, and conversations about HM’s evolution have begun. Co-Management and its value from both a clinical and operational standpoint is the topic up for discussion today. Our 4 panelists have taken two perspectives: one presenting the benefits of Co-Management and the other showcasing its weaknesses and challenges. Do we resume things post-COVID as normal or are there changes and new use cases that can improve this prolific and debated system of patient management?

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.

SummaryPoint-of-Care Ultrasound (POCUS) is increasingly becoming an encouraged tool for hospitalists as it increases efficiency, improves diagnostic accuracy, and aids in the treatment of hospitalized patients.Unfortunately, current POCUS training opportunities are extremely limited, of variable quality, and often not tailored specifically for hospitalists. Developed by nationally-recognized experts in POCUS, this series addresses these issues with in-depth cognitive training across the most impactful applications of POCUS for hospitalists.
