The pediatric hospital medicine division has nearly 4,000 patient admissions each year and takes care of a wide variety of patients, including an increasingly medically complex population. Because of the nature of our work, we collaborate frequently with other specialities, and often share patients with the ER, NICU, PICU and surgical services. Because of the high-volume of our complex patient service and our close relationship with the pediatric residents, we are often aware of--and frequently ...

Point of Care Ultrasound encompasses a series of ultrasound examinations including transthoracic echocardiography and intravascular volume assessment, as well as lung, abdominal, and peripheral vascular ultrasound. Collectively, POCUS is an essential tool for the anesthesiologist which allows for the acquisition of ultrasound images non-invasively (as compared to transesophageal echocardiography) in multiple settings, including perioperative emergencies, to evaluate and diagnose multiple patholo...

The Quarterly MM&I Series is designed to enhance the quality and safety of pediatric primary care by providing a structured, case-based learning forum focused on morbidity, mortality, and system-level improvement opportunities. The series fosters a culture of transparency, continuous learning, and interprofessional collaboration within the Division of General Pediatrics. Each session will feature real-world clinical cases drawn from outpatient primary care settings, emphasizing diagnostic accura...

This series will be a 1-hour, monthly CME-credited course, held on the 1st Wednesday of every month from 7-8 am, focusing on multidisciplinary analysis and discussion of complex pediatric surgical and GI cases, literature review and interactive discussions of adverse outcomes, near misses, and opportunities for improvement in clinical practice.

This is a twice yearly meeting intended to do quality improvement in myocardial perfusion imaging and to address ICANL criteria for accreditation as a nuclear cardiology laboratory. We review various nuclear cardiovascular cases and images to determine the overall sensitivity and specificity among our readers. We also review recent advances in nuclear cardiovascular imaging. Up to four cases in which variations from typical interpretation occurred are selected for discussion. Participants have ...

This series will be a 1-hour, monthly CME-accredited series, held on the 3rd Wednesday of every month from 7-8 am, focusing on multidisciplinary analysis and discussion of complex pediatric surgical and radiology cases to enhance diagnostic accuracy, timely surgical decision-making, imaging interpretation, and collaborative treatment planning for complex pediatric surgical conditions.
