May 13-17, 2014
WELCOME TO THE SAEM ANNUAL MEETING!
Welcome to the 25th-Anniversary SAEM Annual Meeting. Twenty-five years ago our founders would never have guessed that this
organization would blossom and grow into the premier organization and venue for knowledge creation and translation for all of the
research, clinical and educational facets of emergency medicine. This week you will be surrounded by the best and brightest minds in our
specialty. Furthermore, this is the largest and most robust program our Society has ever presented at an Annual Meeting. I encourage
you to immerse yourself, engage, network, ponder and learn from all that is around you. I promise you will not be disappointed. This is your
opportunity to find new passion or rekindle the old passion for our specialty and our organization. Enjoy!
Thanks for coming to the 2014 SAEM Annual Meeting in Dallas.

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY SAEM! 25 YEARS AND COUNTING…
MAY 13-17, 2014

DALLAS, TEXAS
It is my pleasure to welcome you to the 25th-anniversary SAEM Annual Meeting. This year’s meeting should prove to be the best ever!
Once again, the specialty broke all records for submissions of didactics, innovations and abstracts. This is clearly indicative of how our
specialty is growing, and of our increasingly prominent presence in medicine. The 2014 SAEM Annual Meeting will once again bring together
the leaders of our specialty, showcasing the best of education and research in our field.
How is it possible to summarize what will be happening this year, with the vast amount of material that will be on offer? SAEM is proud
to showcase not one, but two keynote speaker sessions. Dr. Marc Nivet, chief diversity officer for the Association of American Medical
Colleges, will be the main keynote speaker at our Business Meeting, discussing the vital role of diversity as a component of health systems
innovation and the advancement of health care equity. Dr. Atul Grover, Mr. Gordon Wheeler, and Dr. Jeremy Brown will be back, following up
the fantastic panel last year, to discuss the challenges and the opportunities emergency medicine will have under the Affordable Care Act,
during our plenary session. You won’t want to miss this nationally acclaimed group of speakers.
The “Gallery of Excellence” will be back after its successful inaugural year. This viewing session will showcase this year’s highest-scoring
abstracts from our extensive peer-review process. Registrants will be able to browse the best of SAEM at their leisure with the comforts
of food and drink during the opening reception.
Speaking of the opening reception: Not only has SAEM planned the most exciting opening reception in the history of the Annual Meeting,
but there might be a few surprises you won’t want to miss.
This year’s consensus conference, “Gender-Specific Research in Emergency Medicine: Investigate, Understand and Translate How
Gender Affects Patients Outcomes,” will focus on how gender may affect outcomes in acute coronary syndromes, trauma and head injury,
stroke, pain control, substance abuse, diagnostic imaging and mental health. This comprehensive look at gender-specific medicine has the
potential to inspire dramatic changes to your practice.
This year SAEM has developed a “Special Sessions” day on Tuesday, May 14 that will allow our academies and interest groups to tailor a
specific program to those interested in their niche within emergency medicine. Besides the familiar Grant Writing Workshop and Consensus
Conference, there will be a community-based academic physician session, simulation and ultrasound teaching sessions, a senior leadership
forum, a program directors’ session, an ED analgesia session, an evidence-based diagnostic workshop, and a diversity workshop too. SAEM
continues to provide opportunities for our specialty to grow, and with so many different avenues to explore, this will hopefully be just the
start of new programming for the future.
The perennial favorites, SimWars and SonoGames®, are back, so come and cheer on your team as they vie for SAEM glory. Senior and
junior faculty forums, a resident leadership forum, a medical student symposium, ABEM updates, NIH sessions… this list just can’t do
justice to everything we’ve got in store for you in Dallas!
Are you worried about missing important content? Don’t be! SAEM is right there on your smartphone. The SAEM Annual Meeting mobile
app will keep you informed of the latest, and give you your own personal planner, links to the Annual Meeting website, Twitter feeds, email
updates, and onsite message boards, all there to help you get the most out of the experience of this meeting.
New this year is a chance to catch many of the exciting sessions the Annual Meeting has to offer but that might conflict with other
events you wish to attend, whether you are in Dallas or can’t make it in person: SAEM introduces SAEM OnDemand, its new online service,
providing video, audio and slide capture of up to 75 hours of the meeting’s presentations. You will be able to purchase access to these
new online CME service, streamable and downloadable via computer or mobile device, either during pre-meeting registration, at onsite
registration in Dallas, or through SAEM’s website.
There will be something for everyone in emergency medicine at the 2014 SAEM Annual Meeting. This dynamic forum for educators,
researchers, policymakers and administrators will exhibit the very best of emergency medicine. You will have the opportunity to return
home afterwards with new knowledge, a new colleague and friend, a new idea, a new way to improve patient care, and with a renewed
appreciation of what we have achieved the short span of 25 years.
Thanks for coming to the 2014 SAEM Annual Meeting in Dallas.

“DIVERSITY 101”: CLOSING THE DIVERSITY GAP
TUESDAY, MAY 13 – 8:00 AM - 12:00 PM — ATRIUM (HOTEL-2ND FLOOR)
Identification of the Education Gap:
4
Diversity & Inclusion affects not only our workforce and workplace internally but also our patients, community and
specialty externally. This proposed program addresses several of
the key aspects of improving diversity at our own institutions and
within our specialty.
We will provide a brief historical overview of diversity (faculty/
residents, URM/LGBT) within medicine, including EM; highlighting its
importance and setting the stage for the rest of the day. Through our interactive panel discussions and workshops, we will provide
tangible and practical strategies to improve recruitment, hiring
and retention, curriculum development and research.
More specifically, as it relates to diversifying the workforce/
workplace, we will present tools to recruit and hire with diversity
in mind, whether looking to diversify your department or residency
and whether you are at a diverse geographical area or not. We will
highlight current practices that have been successful in various
settings. We will also address potential challenges that these efforts
could face and provide tools to problem solve them. We will also
discuss ways to retain and promote the diverse individuals you have
successfully recruited and hired.
In addition, we will discuss different types of curriculums as it relates
to diversity. Through small group exercises we will look at what these
curriculums entail, how to implement them, and how to gage their effectiveness. We again will highlight current curriculums that exist
and that are being used effectively.
Similarly, we will highlight current research being done and address
ongoing needs. We will provide strategies to assist in conducting this
type of research, whether you are thinking about doing it or have
been doing it.
From this program, we hope to develop working groups that will
continue to work together long after this session had ended.
Program Agenda
Diversity and inclusion are subjects that involve all of us, not only among our workforce and in our workplaces, but also for
our patients, community and specialty. The SAEM Academy for Diversity and Inclusion in Emergency Medicine invites everyone
to attend the interactive half-‐day session “Diversity 101: Closing
the Diversity Gap” for a practical approach to issues that most programs struggle with in regards to recruiting, retaining, and
developing a diverse group of faculty members and residents.
This session is meant to be interactive! Participants will be divided into smaller working groups led by experienced co-‐facilitators.
Looking through various lenses (undergraduate, graduate, faculty,
and LGBT) one at a time, each group will discuss and create tools
and resources that anyone could use to create and sustain a diverse
climate at their institution, as it relates to education, scholarship, and service. We will subsequently come together as a larger
group to discuss best practices and begin to work on addressing
known gaps.

Beyond the Department of Emergency Medicine: Leadership
Roles for Emergency Physicians in the Academic Medical
Center
Brian Gibler, MD, University of Cincinnati College of Medicine
Emergency physician leaders often target Departmental positions
such as Chair, Residency Program Director, or Research Directors
for their career pathway. In many Academic Medical Centers,
emergency physician leaders are being tapped to serve as hospital
Chief Executive Offices, Chief Medical Officers, Chief Quality
Officers, Physician Group Practice Leaders, or as Medical School
6
Deans. For this presentation, the background and reasons for
this health system leadership trend in academic medicine will be
discussed. Information will also be provided to help the participant
optimize personal education, training, and career experiences for
pursuit of this pathway in health system leadership.

Diagnosis and diagnostic testing are fundamental to our practice and teaching.
When and how should we use a rapid antigen test for influenza? How should we
interpret BNP for CHF, D-Dimer for PE, or serum lactate for severe sepsis? Is there
a physical finding that distinguishes that rare posterior circulation stroke from
run-of-the-mill peripheral vertigo? In this all-day, interactive workshop, we will
discuss using the evidence to evaluate and interpret diagnostic tests. We will cover
dichotomous tests, multilevel and continuous tests, ROC curves, interval likelihood
ratios, and bias in studies of test accuracy -- and believe it or not, we will have fun!
Instead of giving and passively listening to a series of lectures, we will discuss and
solve real-world diagnostic testing problems in small groups.

PLANNING FOR A SAFER DECADE OF ED ANALGESIA
TUESDAY, MAY 13 – 1:00 - 5:00 PM — AUSTIN 2
Pain relief is an integral component of quality care in the ED. An emergency physician must be particularly adept at selecting
appropriate pain management strategies for a spectrum of pain-related complaints, of varied, and often unclear, etiology,
chronicity, and severity. Providing inadequate pain relief is not acceptable, but neither is the indiscriminate use of analgesics,
which has fostered a decade-long epidemic of drug misuse, addiction, and death. The goal of this session is to begin to construct
a consensus-based strategy to set future curricular and research priorities, and to potentially publish our efforts in a white
paper. These efforts should ultimately allow provision of both effective and safe pain relief that has a patient-centered focus yet
are attentive to public health concerns.

TUESDAY, MAY 13, 2014 - 8:00 AM - 12:00 PM — IN THE ATRIUM
DIVERSITY 101: CLOSING THE DIVERSITY GAP
Diversity and inclusion are subjects that involve all of us, not only among our workforce and in our workplaces, but also
for our patients, community and specialty. The SAEM Academy for Diversity and Inclusion in Emergency Medicine (ADIEM)
invites you to attend the interactive half-day session “Diversity 101: Closing the Diversity Gap” for a practical approach
to issues that most programs are challenged with in regards to recruiting, retaining, and developing a diverse group of
faculty and residents.
The session is meant to be interactive! Participants will be divided into smaller working groups led by experienced cofacilitators. Looking through various lenses (including undergraduate, graduate, faculty, and LGBT), each group will
discuss and create tools and resources that anyone could use to create and sustain a diverse climate at their institution.
This is vital to our academic mission as it relates to education, scholarship, and service. The workshop will culminate with
the group coming together to discuss best practices and share strategies to address barriers faced by our institutions.

ACADEMIA AND THE PRACTICE OF COMMUNITY-BASED
EMERGENCY MEDICINE
TUESDAY, MAY 13 - 8:00 AM - 5:00 PM — AUSTIN BALLROOM 1 (HOTEL-2ND FLOOR)
SAEM is proud to introduce “Academia and the Practice of Community-Based Emergency Medicine,” an all-day seminar sponsored
by the SAEM Community-Based Academic Physician Task Force. While most medical students and residents will graduate
and enter into a community practice, it is typically the university hospital of the medical school that receives the majority of
funding, basic infrastructure for education/research, and support for mentoring of future leaders. However, the community
hospital serves a powerful role not only in teaching the residents of the future, but also as a force of health care change. This
seminar, intended for faculty and residents, will foster an environment in which participants can actively learn from the success
of both their community-based colleagues and academic chairs who also oversee community emergency departments. Topics
will range from how to develop compensation models that are applicable to all providers, to building ultrasound infrastructure,
to ways of finding mentorship. Resident attendees will have a special break-out session in the afternoon, dedicated to such
topics as what to expect during their community rotation and how to get the most out of the experience.

The Resident and Student Advisory Committee Reception
will be held on Friday, May 16 from 5:30 - 7:30 pm, following the
Residency and Fellowship Fair. This inaugural event will be a great
chance to network with colleagues from across the country while
mingling with leaders from SAEM committees and task forces as
they highlight opportunities for medical students and residents
to become involved in emergency medicine at a national level
early in your career. This reception, open only to medical students
and residents, is sponsored by ECI, which will provide free drink
tickets at their booth in the exhibit hall.
May 16 includes the Annual Meeting’s highlight for medical
students: the SAEM Medical Student Symposium, tailored to
medical students applying to EM. Panel discussions with current
EM residents, roundtable discussions, and lunch with EM program
directors will prep EM-bound students for the application and
selection process. Always a hot topic, Diagnostic Imaging and
Radiation Exposure: How Much is Too Much? will discuss the risks
of medical radiation exposure and examine methods to decrease
the use of unnecessary medical imaging. Join Dr. Marc Nivet, the
Annual Meeting keynote speaker, to discover the role of diversity
and inclusion in promoting innovation in academic emergency
medicine. The Residency and Fellowship Fair is a great place to
network with program directors, faculty, and residents from EM
residency and fellowship programs from across the country. Make
the most of this opportunity to ask questions or identify away
rotation options while getting a feel for individual programs you
may not have otherwise considered. Discover the winners of the

DS001: Maximize Your Career Potential:
Strategies to Increase Your Academic Productivity
Wednesday, May 14 - 8:00 - 9:00 am
Location: Dallas Ballroom A1
Objectives: At the completion of this session, participants should be able to:
1. Identify strategies from the session that will increase their scholarly
productivity,
2. List 3 strategies that will increase their potential for career advancement.
Description: Staying productive in research or other scholarly work is
challenging for EM physicians, who often have many other personal and
professional responsibilities competing for their time. However, career
advancement in academic emergency medicine depends on scholarly
productivity. Maintaining a successful publishing track record while
balancing clinical shifts, educational responsibilities, and personal priorities
requires planning and strategizing. We have many leaders in academic
emergency medicine who have consistently maintained their productivity
throughout their careers. In this session, junior and senior EM researchers
will learn strategies from those who have been successful in our field. The
session will be a 50-minute panel presentation with three panelists. There
will be a brief introduction as well as a period for questions at the end. Each
panelist will have 10 minutes to discuss strategies they use for maintaining
their academic productivity. Examples of strategies may include building a
supportive writing team, increasing productivity through collaboration with
colleagues with similar interests, and building regular writing days into your
clinical schedule.

DS002: Emergency Department Discharges:
Education-based Solutions to Address a
Significant Patient Safety Issue
Objectives: At the completion of this session, participants should be able
to: 1. Describe the major threats to safety surrounding patient discharge
processes in the emergency department. 2. Describe a training intervention
that targets emergency department patient discharge processes. 3. List
several mechanisms for evaluating the impact of a discharge-related
training intervention.
Description: The process of discharging a patient from the emergency
department presents a significant threat to patient safety due to patient-,
hospital-, and practitioner-related factors. While this issue exists in
other areas of health care, the dynamic, time-pressured, highly variable
environment of the emergency department presents additional challenges
and inhibits safety mechanisms demonstrated to be effective in other
settings. Faculty will begin this session with a short interactive discussion
to engage the audience. Faculty will query attendees about discharge
practices and practitioner education in their institutions. Session leaders
will present an overview of the discharge process literature, focusing on
emergency medicine. They will specifically highlight patient-, environment-,
and practitioner-related factors that are potential targets for dischargerelated interventions. Faculty will present an educational intervention
36
that targets all three (practitioner, patient, and environment) barriers
to effective discharges. They will draw from both the communication
and patient safety literature to support their approach and will present
a mechanism to evaluate training effectiveness. They will end with a
facilitated, interactive discussion focused on how to further this line of
inquiry and create an educational agenda around discharge processes.

DS003: Fulfilling the Resident Scholarly Project
Requirement: Solutions from Both Program and Research
Directors
to: 1. Define the resident scholarly activity requirement 2. Identify feasible
resident research and academic projects. 2. Understand how departmental
research infrastructures can be adapted to complete resident research
and scholarly activities. 3. Increase their knowledge of how to overcome
challenges assisting residents and faculty mentors in executing high-quality
resident research and scholarly projects.
Description: Resident research and scholarly activity represent both a
challenge and an opportunity for departments or divisions of emergency
medicine. An important objective of emergency medicine residency
programs is to educate residents on the mechanics of clinical research and
other forms of scholarly activity. Participation in research and scholarly
activity may inspire residents to pursue an academic career. However,
meeting the scholarly activity requirement can be difficult for both residents
and faculty. Residents may perceive the scholarly activity requirement as
a burden with resultant output of little academic value. Faculty mentors
may be diverted from working on their long-term career goals for which
department resources are allocated. As a result, academic departments
of emergency medicine may struggle to identify feasible projects, mentors
and resources for resident research and scholarly activity.
Dr. Garmel will introduce the session by providing an overview of the resident
scholarly requirement and how feasible projects can be identified, focusing
on early mentorship of residents and pairing residents with faculty who
share the resident’s career interest. Dr. Venkat will discuss how academic
departments of emergency medicine can identify resources for resident
research and scholarly activity, including how to adapt existing research
infrastructures for this purpose. Dr. Baumann will conclude the course by
outlining her department’s hybrid model of non-research and research
scholarly activities. She will also provide examples of successful scholarly
projects from residents who pursued community and academic careers and
will discuss how to improve faculty and resident motivation.

and acknowledges a learner’s limitations. 2. Learn to control a teaching
session utilizing their particular leadership/teaching style. 3. Learn to
communicate clear expectations to help promote knowledge acquisition.
4. Learn how to teach content so that learners understand and retain the
material in a more meaningful way.
Description: Educators are continuously charged to develop innovative
approaches to enhance student learning. In fact, the ability to effectively
educate others is one of the distinguishing features of an outstanding
physician. Yet, many do so without any formal training or direction, making
learning a trial-and-error process. Currently, the demand for highly skilled
medical educators is ever increasing. As such, all educators must have a
framework for teaching to ensure learners are learning and retaining what is
taught to them. This workshop will address 4 aspects of teaching: learning
climate, control of session, communication of goals, and promotion of
understanding and retention. This workshop will provide skills to improve
the interaction between the educator, the learner and the content being
taught.

DS005: Early Care of Septic Shock:
New Data and How Does it Fit?
Location: Dallas Ballroom D2
to: 1. Understand the epidemiology of AHF related to the ED. 2. Describe
both current and emerging biomarkers and therapies. 3. Describe potential
alternative strategies to hospitalization. 4. Understand the role of the ED
regarding national quality metrics. 5. Describe key unanswered research
questions.
Description: This state-of-the-art session will focus on the pivotal role
of emergency medicine in acute heart failure (AHF). The role of the ED
regarding HF quality measures will also be discussed. New and emerging
biomarkers, updates on emerging therapies along with novel strategies
to reduce morbidity and mortality will also be presented. Key future
hypotheses to advance the field will be discussed and debated.
Objectives: Upon completion of this course, participants should be able
to: 1. Define wake-up stroke, and summarize the present understanding
of the pathophysiology of wake-up stroke 2. Define who may benefit from
thrombolysis after wake-up stroke. 3. Define rapidly improving/minor
stroke and summarize the present outcomes. 4. Describe the future
direction of research for management of rapidly improving/minor stroke.
5. Summarize the different types of anticoagulants that the patients with
acute ischemic stroke (AIS) may be on and their implication in the setting of
thrombolysis.
Description: Intravenous thrombolytic therapy continues to be the only
FDA-approved acute treatment available for patients with AIS. The goal of
this session is to discuss three stroke syndromes that blur the indication for
thrombolysis: 1) Wake-up Stroke, 2) Rapidly improving/minor strokes, and
3) Patients with AIS in the setting of oral anti-coagulants. “Wake-up Stroke”
refers to patients who were normal when they went to bed, and subsequently
awaken with findings of acute stroke. These patients have traditionally
been challenging in terms of their eligibility, because of an undefined time of
onset. New research suggests that the time of awakening may be considered
the onset time of the stroke. The goal of this session will be to discuss wakeup stroke management, what the research indicates, and where the cuttingedge research is headed. Rapidly improving/minor strokes are defined as
NIHSS < 5 or rapidly improving symptoms. Because these patients were
initially excluded from the NINDS-tPA trial, information regarding efficacy
and safety in these groups was limited. However, multiple studies have
suggested poor outcomes for these patients. The goal of this session will
be discuss the findings leading to the debate on optimal treatment in this
setting, and current definitions and future research that may be able to
answer this question. Patients with AIS in the setting of anticoagulation,
especially with the new generation of anticoagulants, present another
challenge to the bedside clinician in deciding on thrombolysis. The goal of
this session will be to address the newer generation anticoagulants and the
approach to management of these patients.

to: 1.Describe the most recent study goals, design, and observed outcomes.
2. List two strengths and two weaknesses of the recent study and results.
3. Identify at least one contrast and one common theme between all EDbased septic shock research studies. 4. Name at least two approaches to
improving early septic shock care.
Description: A recently completed NIH-funded multi-site, ED-based RCT
of early septic shock care released results. These data, along with those
available over the past decade, bring into focus the key role of emergency
care in improving outcomes of patients with septic shock. In this session,
experts will review the current data and design, including limits; elicit
expert opinion on the current evidence and the impact on care and on future
research; and discuss the policy implications of the current knowledge base.

Description: One of National Institutes of Health’s (NIH’s) critical missions
is to ensure that there are scientists to meet this country’s biomedical
research needs in the future. The goal of this session is to provide an
overview of NIH and its training programs with emphasis on programs
available to clinicians wishing to pursue scientific careers. Topics will
include institutional postdoctoral training programs (T32 grants), as well
as fellowship programs (F grants), and early career development awards (K
grants). Training programs in the NIH intramural labs will also be discussed
as well as NIH loan repayment programs that support scientists who study
specific areas. And finally, the conversation will cover NIH online resources
and personnel who are available to provide additional information as you
start to investigate a research training program.

DS009: Not Another Boring Lecture!
Location: Dallas Ballroom C
1. Recognize examples of less effective instruction. 2. Demonstrate a basic
understanding of modern learning theories and their role in instructional
design. 3. Employ new teaching tools effective for their environment.
Description: This session will challenge participants to branch out of
their comfort zone by demonstrating and encouraging the use of modern
instruction. Learners only retain 10-30% of what they hear in standard
lectures, often because little attention is paid to learning theories and
principles of instructional design that promote improved attention and
knowledge retention. During the session, participants will participate
in several methods of interactive teaching that demonstrate dynamic
opportunities for the teacher to engage the learner. These will include
cooperative learning, modified team-based learning, and computerassisted learning. At the completion of the session, participants will be able
to incorporate new teaching methods into their practice.

to: 1. Describe emergency medicine topic-specific public websites and
resources. 2. Discuss goals and barriers to creating a website, blog, video/
audiocast, or a social media feed. 3. Review goals, development and traffic
details of redpod.org. 4. Provide a step-by-step guide for how to contribute
to or create a web space with a limited budget.
Description: The volume of emergency medicine material available on
the web has changed how we practice and how we teach. Individuals,
residency programs and nonprofits are contributing greatly to this nexus
of information. Join us for a review of how our community is contributing.
We will summarize our own experiences with creating, composing, and
sharing key concepts online for self-motivated learners (www.redpod.
org). We will analyze the limitations and challenges we have faced, and how
we have worked together as a multidisciplinary team to create a locally
well-utilized website oriented toward the interests of our followers. For
individuals interested in contributing to or creating their own website, blog,
video/audiocast, or social media feed, we will discuss the key first steps to
launching such a venture with a limited budget.

DS011: Taking Your Academic Writing Skills to the Next
Level: Tips from the Experts
Objectives: At the completion of this session, participants should be able to
use tools they have learned to improve their academic writing skills by more
effectively communicating the outcomes of EM research to the research
community, the media, and the public.
Description: Scholarly writing is a skill that is essential for EM researchers
to master in order to effectively communicate the results of their work.
Without high-quality academic writing, research in our field cannot be
translated into recommendations for clinical practice or public policy
changes, and the lay public will not learn about studies that may affect
their health. In addition, career advancement in academic EM depends on
physicians’ abilities to write and publish in a variety of formats. Furthermore,
many EM physicians have never received any formal training in academic
writing. The session will be a 50-minute panel presentation with three
panelists. There will be a brief introduction and a brief period for questions
at the end. Each panelist will focus on a specific area of academic writing
and will have 12 minutes to communicate practical tools to help improve
the quality of writing by EM researchers and clinicians. The three areas of
focus will be research manuscripts, clinically oriented review articles in EM
publications, and pieces written to communicate EM research to the media
and/or lay public.

DS012: Diagnosing Dizziness – A Fresh Approach
to: 1. Understand the basis for and the intrinsic limitations of the traditional
“symptom quality” diagnostic approach to dizziness. 2. Describe a new
approach for the diagnosis of acutely dizzy patients based on symptom
“timing and triggers.” 3. Apply targeted bedside eye examination tests
to help reduce misdiagnosis of posterior circulation stroke. 4. List the
limitations of brain imaging (both CT and MRI) in diagnosing dizzy patients.
Description: Two nationally known experts on neurological emergencies
who have published cutting-edge research on the diagnosis of acutely dizzy
patients in the emergency department (ED) will present a new diagnostic
paradigm. This is not simply a discussion about how to diagnose the dizzy
patient, but rather a critical review of up-to-date research that suggests the
very foundation upon which we diagnose dizzy patients is faulty. Importantly,
this is not just a session for trainees: even the most experienced clinician
will be able to learn and implement this new diagnostic paradigm that has
the potential to change practice and improve care. The moderator is Josh
Goldstein. Jonathan A. Edlow will review the original study upon which the
“symptom quality” diagnostic paradigm was based and recent research that
undercuts the basic premises of the symptom quality approach. Dr. Edlow
will present data that suggests that a new diagnostic paradigm based on
dizziness “timing and triggers” and a bedside oculomotor exam is far more
consistent with our current evidence base. David Newman-Toker will focus
on solutions. Imaging can be misleading. CT is rarely the best test for a dizzy
patient, and even MRI can miss up to 12% of posterior circulation strokes
in the first 48 hours. Current evidence suggests that we can make more
precise diagnoses using a targeted bedside exam, and ongoing research
using video-goggles opens the possibility that soon, we may be able to
automate the bedside oculomotor exam and have an “EKG of the eyes.”

DS013: Community Paramedicine: A Novel Strategy to
Decrease ED Crowding and Costs
to: 1. Establish a timeline of activities for the first five years of their career
and develop a professional mission statement. 2. Identify the importance
of mentoring relationships and their role in establishing such relationships.
3. Define the importance of establishing a career focus niche, and how to
nurture required skills. 4. Describe the fine balance between universal
faculty obligations and individual career development. 5. List general faculty
development opportunities common across all departmental faculty.
Description: Entry-level and junior faculty members frequently encounter a
perplexing workplace that may not overtly provide the guidance or tools to
to: 1. Describe the mentoring models that exist for medical students and
residents. 2. List several benefits specific to residents in these mentorship
relationships. 3. Describe the limitations to assigning mentors to mentees.
4. Describe the role of gender in mentorship.
Description: Mentorship is defined as a reciprocal relationship in a work
environment between an advanced career incumbent (mentor) and a
beginner (mentee) intended to promote professional development and
career advancement. Despite the well-known benefits of mentorship, only
40% of medical students have identified a mentor. Additionally, formal
mentoring programs for medical students and residents are lacking in most
countries. That said, one of the barriers to the mentorship relationship,
“finding a suitable mentor,” can be solved by starting a mentorship program.
This session will feature two speakers and a panel of residents and students
who have participated in mentorship programs. Two types of groupmentoring models, both involving students, residents and faculty, will be
presented to participants. The structure of the mentorship relationships in
both programs includes residents as mentors to students, providing unique
benefits to all involved in the mentorship programs. Successes and failures
in mentorship will be discussed. Pros and cons of group mentoring, genderspecific mentoring, and assigned mentoring will also be discussed.

to: 1. Describe the proportion of 911 dispatches and ambulance transports
for non-emergent complaints, and the costs associated with this use
of the EMS system. 2. Describe the goals, practices, and outcomes of
existing community paramedicine programs. 3. Understand the effects of a
community paramedicine program on ED crowding and ambulance diversion.
4. Explain the major research methodologies available for outcomes-based
and cost-efficacy evaluation of community paramedicine programs.
Description: Many patients that access the EMS system and are
transported to emergency departments could be managed at home or in
lower-acuity settings. The Affordable Care Act creates opportunities for
health care services research focusing on alternate prehospital delivery
models that may be more efficient and effective for patients needing
unscheduled but non-emergent care. While legislative or regulatory relief
would be required in most states before implementation, one such model,
community paramedicine, would expand paramedic scope of practice
to include management and referral of appropriate patients without
transport, or transport of patients to destinations other than emergency
departments. If broadly implemented, community paramedicine could
markedly decrease ED crowding. In addition, the model could create new
career pathways for emergency physicians. Many have voiced concerns
regarding paramedics’ ability to determine emergent vs. non-emergent
patient presentations, and the ability of EMS systems to create, evaluate,
and administer such programs safely and effectively. This didactic session
uses brief presentations and a panel discussion by EMS leaders to explore
data supporting development of community paramedicine, as well as current
examples of existing projects. Additionally, it details select methodologies
for program design and evaluation that may be successfully applied to this
new field.

to: 1. List the various graduate and post-doctoral training opportunities
available in health services research. 2. Describe how a research training
program is structured. 3. Describe how to locate and secure a fellowship
with a tailored research experience, including working with program
directors and department chairs. 4. Define the importance of mentorship,
how to find a mentor, and how to build a mentorship team.
Description: The complexity and costliness of US health care necessitates a
cadre of trained researchers with the expertise to answer timely questions
regarding the delivery and financing of the health care system. Health
services research (HSR) is a growing field that studies how social factors,
financing systems, organizational structures and processes, and health
behaviors affect access to health services, health outcomes, and the
quality and cost of health care. Over the past decade, there has been an
increase in training opportunities for HSR available to physicians. These
programs include AHRQ-funded institutional training grants (T32), NIHfunded institutional grants for emergency research (K12), and the Robert
Wood Johnson Clinical Scholars Program. Our goal is to provide participants
with an overview of the types of programs available and paint a picture of
what a research fellowship in HSR looks like. At the start of the didactic, Dr.
Sabbatini will provide a brief introduction of the speakers and define HSR
39
for the audience. The first speaker, Dr. Newgard, director of the K12 research
fellowship at OHSU, will discuss the features of formal training programs,
including but not limited to length, clinical work expectations, salary and
service obligations, and publications and grants typical during and after a
research fellowship. He will also emphasize what to look for in a mentor and
how to build a mentorship team. For the second portion of the talk, Dr. Barsan
will discuss his experiences with HSR fellows as chair of a department of
emergency medicine and describe how to work with departmental chairs
to design an individual fellowship, including contract negotiation, clinical/
departmental responsibilities, salary and expectations for grant support,
and balancing clinical work with research.

DS017: Where is the Evidence IV: The ABCs of Pediatric
Respiratory Infections
to: 1. Discuss evidence-based alternatives to hospitalization from the ED
focusing on clinical prediction rules and other criteria to guide decisions. 2)
Explain novel strategies such as Hospital at Home and transitional care to
reduce admissions. 3) Describe options for patients with uncertain follow-up.
Description: Emergency department utilization is increasing as the
population ages, and a disproportionate number of older patients who
present to emergency departments are admitted to the hospital. The
reasons for this are varied, and include provider discomfort with discharge
planning, insufficient coordination with outpatient providers, and perceived
lack of support or resources at home. Hospital admission, particularly for
older patients, is fraught with complications such as hospital-acquired
infections, exacerbations of delirium, and falls, all of which are associated
with significant morbidity and financial burden. Avoiding hospital admission
and readmission is an attractive goal, as it may reduce these complications
and lead to safer, more effective, and better-quality patient care. In this
session, we will examine evidence-based alternatives to hospitalization
from the ED, focusing on clinical prediction rules to guide decision-making,
alternative strategies such as Hospital at Home, improving transitions
in care to prevent unnecessary readmissions, and exploring options for
patients with uncertain follow-up.

1. Accurately stratify severity of illness in the ED for each respiratory illness
in order to appropriately institute therapy. 2. Develop evidence-based
ED treatment strategies for each of these common pediatric respiratory
infections.
Description: Children with respiratory diseases frequently present to
emergency departments. Asthma, bronchiolitis, and croup all pose unique
challenges and clinical dilemmas for the emergency physician. Acute asthma
requires intensive therapy and assessments, which can lead to prolonged
ED length of stay and high admission rates. Bronchiolitis remains among
the most difficult clinical entities to manage in the ED setting, owing to lack
of efficacious therapies and the highly changeable nature of respiratory
distress and hypoxemia. Croup, on the other hand, has known therapies that
are effective, yet recognition of correct application of treatment in the ED
setting is not always the rule. Treatment dilemmas remain for each of these
commonly encountered respiratory infections. Accumulated evidence,
including recent trials, has advanced our knowledge of asthma, bronchiolitis,
and croup, and has permitted evidence-based approaches to their treatment
in the ED. In this session, the up-to-date evidence for ED management of
acute asthma, bronchiolitis, and croup will be presented, including synthesis
of current literature for each condition. We will review the latest evidencebased approach and treatment for each respiratory illness, and discuss
upcoming research and potential future ED interventions.

Wednesday, May 14 - 10:30 - 11:30 am
1. Explain several limitations associated with traditional teaching. 2. Discuss
evidence for optimizing educational techniques from the teaching and
learning literature. 3. Apply the evidence to develop strategies to change
and improve their teaching practice.
Description: RATIONALE: In the same way that clinicians apply evidencebased changes to their practice, medical educators should use evidencebased conclusions from pedagogical literature and incorporate it into
their teaching practice. CONTENT: This workshop will help participants
translate evidence from some landmark education articles: 1) urban legends
of learning styles; 2) multi-tasking and applications to teaching; 3) learning
retention; and 4) technology and learning. Each year, this highly rated session
to: 1. Recognize the growing demand for emergency care of athletic injuries
and identify the unique challenges and opportunities involved in providing
this care. 2. Understand the role of the emergency physician in advancing
care through research and resident education in sports medicine. 3. Identify
areas of scholarly concentration for the non-fellowship-trained emergency
physician with an interest in sports medicine.
Description: While increasing numbers of emergency physicians are
pursuing fellowship training in sports medicine, many more are staffing mass
participation events, covering athletic sidelines, and facing sports medicine
challenges in the emergency department. Management of sports-related
concussion, injury prevention in youth sports, and sudden cardiac arrest in
athletes are hot topics in the sports medicine community with particular
relevance to emergency medicine. This session will highlight controversial
clinical issues surrounding care of the athlete, opportunities for research
and resident education, and recommendations for the emergency physician
desiring greater involvement in sports medicine. Each speaker practices
academic emergency medicine, clinical sports medicine, or team medicine
in settings encompassing high school, college, and professional sports.
Jeffrey Feden, MD, will provide a brief overview of controversies in sports
medicine and their importance to the emergency physician (10 minutes).
Moira Davenport, MD, associate EM residency director at Allegheny
General Hospital and team physician for the Pittsburgh Pirates baseball
team, will highlight opportunities for advancing concussion care through
research and peer education (15 minutes). Anna Waterbrook, MD, associate
fellowship director and team physician at the University of Arizona, will
discuss methods to enhance EM resident education in orthopedics and
sports medicine (10 minutes). The program will conclude with a collective
review of practical considerations for the emergency physician interested
in developing professionally in this growing field (10 minutes). A brief
question-and-answer session will follow (5 minutes).

DS022: Improve Your Teaching by Debunking Education
Myths: Evidence-based Teaching Workshop Using Articles
That Will Change Your Teaching Practice
DS023: Bringing Sports Medicine to the Emergency
Physician
MAY 13-17, 2014
Objectives: On completion of this session, participants should be able to:
1. Describe the utility of a patient-centered care committee for ED super
utilizers. 2. Recognize the resources in their community to aid in the care
of the super utilizer. 3. Explore the implications of super utilizers on the
hospital. 4. Review ways to access community outreach and resources.
Description: The emergency department (ED) is packed, trauma patients
are coming in by air and ground, and here comes James, stumbling in, for his
third visit today. Call it what you may: “super utilizer,” “uber-user,” “population
management,” or “complex case management,” EDs often serve as the super
utilizer’s primary source for health care. This is an untenable situation:
health care systems are attempting to improve quality of care, reduce
costs, and provide EMTALA-mandated care while many other resources are
still fragmented or inaccessible. The speaker will discuss the “complex case
super utilizer” committee and its mission in a Level 1 urban-based trauma
hospital. The speaker will review the resources and community outreach
that have come together to champion this population and will review the
steps to reduce use of the ED, decrease unnecessary admissions, support
patients through community resources, and improve patient outcomes. The
speaker will present several case-based experiences discussing complex
case management with patient-centered plans for patients with chronic
illnesses and will discuss how the super utilizers have acclimated to a
community-based health care system. Finally, the speaker will describe the
key components to assessing eligibility for enrollment services through
federal, state, and community resources.

DS024: Funding for EM Research Fellowships: NIH PostDoc Institutional Training Grants (T32)
Wednesday, May 14 - 10:30 - 11:30 am
to: 1. Understand that NIH T32 training is a fundamental building block in
developing research careers. 2. Describe how the NIH T32 postdoctoral
training grants can be aligned in conjunction with EM fellowship programs. 3.
Describe the attributes of successful T32 programs, and be better prepared
to write a T32 grant application.
Description: The National Institutes of Health have a long history of
funding Institutional Training Programs (T32 grants) that provide pre- and
postdoctoral research training. T32 postdoctoral programs are frequently
aligned with clinical fellowship programs and provide postdoctoral trainee
stipends, tuition, travel, and training-related expenses. Most importantly,
the stipends provide 90% protected time to pursue research. T32 training
generally takes two or three years and is the foundation of a research career.
Those who complete the training often go on to obtain NIH research career
development awards (K awards) and NIH research funding (R01 grants).
Currently there are more than 1,400 T32 programs funded nationwide.
These are highly competitive five-year training grants. To date, emergency
medicine has had very limited success in translating these fellowship
guidelines into the T32 mechanism. Several years ago, the SAEM Fellowship
Task Force established guidance for clinical and health services research EM
fellowships. The Task Force recommendations addressed training length,
protected time, courses, ethics, grant writing, publications, mentoring and
metrics. The Fellowship criteria are clear, specific, and challenging, and the
final result is that EM research fellowship requirements are now comparable
to many T32 postdoctoral research training programs. The purpose of this
session is to provide an overview of NIH T32 programs, explore how these
training grants might benefit EM research fellowships, and discuss ways to
maximize application success. Discussion will include program structure,
leadership, mentoring, coursework and metrics of program success.

DS025: Home Treatment with Target-specific
Anticoagulants (TSAs) for Patients with Venous
Thromboembolism (VTE) Diagnosed in the Emergency
Department
Wednesday, May 14 - 10:30 am - 12:30 pm
to: 1. Describe how to initiate an outpatient treatment protocol for venous
thromboembolism using TSAs in the emergency department. 2. Explain the
barriers to and patient- and hospital-oriented implications of initiating this
protocol.
Description: This session seeks to generalize a standard care protocol
of home treatment for low-risk patients with VTE, including PE, with TSA
agents. The workshop comprises three sessions: lecture, breakouts and
summary. The lecture session will present the protocol and outcomes from
one year of enrollment, and will cover three topics: Clinical and Operational,
Economic, and Academic Advancement. 1) Clinical and operational topics:
i. Risk stratification to select low-risk patients; ii. Pharmacology, access
and adherence to NOAC therapy; iii. The mechanism for follow-up, including
an EM-run clinic, what needs to be monitored and when; iv. Via Skype, live
testimonial of opinions and preferences from VTE patients from our clinic,
comparing this experience to “Coumadin clinic”; v. Operationalizing the
protocol; and vi. Pitfalls and Setbacks. 2) Economics: i. Case-control cost
data comparing our patients to matched controls treated with warfarin; ii.
42
Economic value of this approach to patients and hospitals with under four
hypothetical payer assumptions: Patient self-pay, Medicare, Medicaid, or
private health insurance. 3) Academic advancement: i. Funding opportunities
from industry, PCORI and CMS; ii. This model as a platform to train research
fellows in the policy and science of expanded home treatment in emergency
care. Participants will then break into small-group sessions (15-20/group)
to discuss the approaches, barriers and questions from their perspectives,
including issues unique to their institutions. Expected concerns include
reversal protocols. In the summary session, all participants will review
the themes of the breakout sessions and, as needed, ask questions of the
organizers and the patient participant.

DS026: Leading Through Change: Becoming a Change
Agent
Objectives: At the conclusion of this session, participants should be able to:
1. Identify the typical obstacles to promoting change within an organization.
2. List practical tools of change leadership that attendees can start
exercising immediately. 3. Discuss techniques to manage individuals and
create a culture of change.
Description: This session will provide participants with practical tools
and advice by which to 1) establish “buy-in” with change, 2) understand
the culture of a true learning organization, 3) uncover opportunities for
successful interactions and positive change, 4) interact with and learn from
SAEM leaders in a small-group setting. In the initial brief introduction, Drs.
Blomkalns and Clyne will describe the obstacles met when leading change in
an organization and identify key skills typical of successful change agents.
The short introduction will be followed by facilitated roundtable discussions
with SAEM leaders at individual tables. Roundtable participants in the past
have included Alan Jones, Deb Houry, Brian Gibler, James Hoekstra, Cherri
Hobgood, Kate Heilpern, Deb Diercks, Arthur Pancioli, Robert Hockberger

DS027: Principles of Medical Photography and the Use of
Clinical Images in Medical Education
Objectives: At the conclusion of this session, participants should be able
to: 1. List the appropriate equipment needed for medical photography. 2.
Describe proper photographic techniques for maximum image quality. 3.
Review the use of medical imaging in teaching and clinical applications. 4.
Practice utilizing newly learned photographic techniques.
Description: Medical photography is a powerful tool that can establish
permanence of clinical teaching opportunities. In order to maximize the
sharing experience and opportunities for learning from clinical photographs,
the educator should strive to obtain medical images of the highest possible
quality. This session consists of a series of short lectures addressing a) the
essential equipment needed to produce excellent clinical images, b) the
fundamentals of medical photography, including explanations of exposure,
lighting, establishment of view, reproduction ratios, and management of
distortion, c) the use of clinical images to augment teaching, and d) clinical
applications of medical photography. Following the lecture segment, the
faculty will teach a hands-on workshop so that participants can practice
newly learned techniques. During the workshop, the faculty will use digital
SLR cameras and projection equipment to demonstrate how proper
technique generates high-quality images, as well as how improper technique
may result in poorer-quality images. Participants are encouraged to bring
their own personal digital SLR cameras, but cameras will be provided during
the workshop for participants’ use.

1. Understand the processes for developing workplace-based assessment
tools. 2. Describe the concepts of reliability and validity of workplacebased assessment. 3. Identify potential difficulties with implementation of
workplace-based assessments with respect to the ACGME EM milestones.
Description: Governing bodies in medical education, including the ACGME,
are promoting the use of workplace-based evaluations to assess both
competency and developmental milestones. Development of these tools is
complicated by variations within ED workplaces. Knowledge of the concepts
of workplace-based assessment and understanding of the variables to
be assessed are the keys to successful evaluation development. This
workshop will present a step-by-step method for developing a workplacebased assessment of trainees to meet these requirements, while taking
into account specific training environmental factors. The concepts of
validity and reliability of assessment tools will be presented and evaluated.
Factors that influence these two concepts during tool development
will be presented and discussed. Potential implementation difficulties
when utilizing workplace-based direct assessments of the ACGME EM
milestones will be considered. After the workshop, participants should
have an understanding of the requirements for effective workplace-based
assessment tools and an understanding of how to develop these tools for
their own programs.

DS031: Ethical Issues in the Management of Potential
Organ Donors in the Emergency Department
to: 1. Describe the organ donor management protocols in the emergency
department. 2. Review ethical concerns in the areas of donor identification,
referral and treatment associated with current methods of organ
procurement. 3. Describe how ethical tensions in the management of
potential organ donors can be overcome in the emergency department.
Description: Transplantation is a beneficial medical intervention for
patients whose lives are threatened by organ failure. In the United States,
the primary source of organ donation is patients who have been declared
dead by either neurologic or cardiac criteria. The emergency department
serves as a common point of entry for the presentation of individuals who
are most likely to transition from being salvageable to being a potential
organ donor. As a result, emergency physicians play a critical role in the
identification, referral and treatment of patients who are potential
organ donors. This course will provide an overview of how organ donor
management can raise ethical concerns for emergency physicians and how
these tensions can be resolved. Dr. Venkat will introduce the session by
providing an overview of the current protocols for organ donation under
neurologic and cardiac criteria and the role that emergency physicians play
in their execution. Dr. Schears will discuss how these protocols can present
ethical dilemmas for emergency physicians, with particular focus on the
perceived transition of physician obligations from patient treatment to
donor management. Dr. Michael will highlight the difficulties posed by the
need for early patient referral to local organ procurement organizations
and the logistical challenges of managing an organ donor in the emergency

1. Harness the power of unique search engines designed to deliver concise
and user-friendly evidence syntheses at the point of care. 2. Navigate
and practice using such resources for purposes of emergency medicine
decision-making.
Description: Single studies are rarely (if ever) the source of truth for what
works in emergency medicine. The Institute of Medicine has made clear in
its 2011 report that decision-making by clinicians and their patients should
be informed by systematic reviews. Specifically, systematic reviews and
high-quality clinical practice guidelines based upon them need to synthesize
the totality of relevant clinical research, while mitigating the risks of bias
in study design and execution - but where to find that research? Suitable
electronic resources are often readily available to clinicians within their
institution, as are sophisticated search engines that can facilitate timely
access. However, knowledge and effective use of these resources are
often limited. Using the unique e-classroom facility available at the SAEM
conference hotel, participants will engage in a hands-on and practical
problem-solving workshop that will highlight cutting-edge evidence-based
search engines, e.g. the Trip database, MacPLUS Federated Search, and
National Guidelines Clearinghouse. It will showcase online resources that
serve as repositories for high-quality evidence syntheses. Specifically,
participants will work from purposely designed clinical cases that highlight
knowledge gaps and provide context for learning to use such resources.
The session format will promote team learning and interactivity, while
faculty will provide guidance and information on the online resources that
will be explored. Participants will work from a single home-base webpage
with links to high-impact resources that they will navigate to inform the
management of critical problems in emergency care.

DS032: Is the Patient Safe? Assessing Procedural
Competence
44
1. Discuss the needs, benefits, and limitations of assessment of procedural
competency. 2. Discuss the educational rationale behind assessment
of skills. 3. Identify methods that optimize use of available resources to
perform procedural assessment on trainees. 4. Develop a plan to implement
an assessment of procedural skills in a variety of scenarios.
Description: Procedural skills involve a complex combination of cognitive
and technical skills. The ACGME milestones and, potentially, conditions
for maintenance of certification are increasingly requiring that learners
and practitioners be formally assessed for procedural competency. In
addition, assessment also provides an opportunity for feedback to enhance
skill development. Both of these goals require use of effective and valid
tools. This session will review the evidence supporting the use of various
assessment modalities, including self-assessment, direct observation, use
of non-physician evaluators, and simulation. It will also review available
assessment tools such as the OSATS instrument. The session will cover
issues related to determining the validity of an assessment and developing
a toolbox. Through the use of case examples and small-group activities,
participants will practice use of common assessment instruments and
strategies for their implementation. Due to the interactive nature of the
small-group sessions, additional facilitators will be employed for these
sections of the workshop, including: Alyssa Bryant, MD; Jared Novack, MD;
Cemal Sozener, MD; and Nikhil Theyyuni, MD.

DS033: You took what??? Toxicologic Public Health
Outbreaks: Lessons from Synthetic Cannabinoid, Bath
Salt, and Acetyl Fentanyl Experiences of 2013
to: 1. List resources available to ED providers concerned about an outbreak
related to a new drug of abuse. 2. Describe the steps in identification of a
new drug of abuse. 3. Identify the process of a public health response to an
emerging toxicologic epidemic.
Description: Designer drugs of abuse (DOAs) and “legal” drug alternatives
have become a significant public health issue over the past decade. Due to
the nature of these agents, the initial presentation of cases is most often to
EMS and emergency departments (EDs). ED providers are on the front lines
when a community is confronted by a novel DOA. As such, we are placed
in the difficult position of being expected to care for these cases while
simultaneously assisting with efforts to identify the causative agent.
How can EM physicians address this complicated public health problem?
Emergency physicians need to be aware of their role in case identification,
be familiar with the public health resources available, and understand how
to collaborate with public health officials and law enforcement to best
control the epidemic.
This session will bring together experts in emergency medicine, medical
toxicology and public health. There will be two brief presentations
discussing the novel DOA outbreaks in 2013: synthetic cannabinoids
(SC), bath salts, and acetyl fentanyl. Dr. Andrew Monte will discuss the
SC outbreak in Colorado and how local hospitals, law enforcement, the
department of public health, and the CDC collaborated to identify the
causative agent and minimize patient exposure. Dr. Edward Boyer will
discuss the outbreaks of acetyl fentanyl in Rhode Island and bath salts in
Boston, with emphasis on rapid identification by emergency physicians and
forensic toxicologic investigation. Dr. Alvin Bronstein will supplement the
panel with informal discussion of the National Poison Database System,
public health resources, and the roles of the EM physician and toxicologist
in surveillance. A discussion about the identification of the causative
agents, how to facilitate cooperation between partners with different
objectives and different time constraints, and what resources are available
for EM physicians during an outbreak will follow. We will close with a panel
question-and-answer session led by the moderator, with opportunities for
audience participation. Andrew Monte

Thursday, May 15 - 8:00 - 9:00 am
Thursday, May 15 - 8:00 - 9:00 am
1. Describe how perception and cognition affect clinical decision-making. 1.
Describe the use of specific cognitive forcing strategies to improve clinical
decision-making.
Description: Both perception and cognition are neglected aspects of
medical education and training. Yet both of these complex processes are
critical to medical decision-making and providing high-quality medical
care. In this session we will demonstrate (using examples from disparate
fields such as film animation, basketball, various medical specialties, and
interactive videos) limits to perception and how such limits affect medical
decision-making. In the second half of the session, we will introduce and
discuss metacognition – that is, thinking about how we think. Through
the use of examples (from disparate fields such as competitive chess and
trauma radiology), the audience will be introduced to the limitations of
specific cognitive forcing strategies to assist clinicians in improving their
medical decision-making.

DS035: Care of the Critically Ill, Morbidly Obese Patient
Thursday, May 15 - 8:00 - 9:00 am
to: 1. List key physiologic changes in the cardiovascular, respiratory and
gastrointestinal systems of morbidly obese patients. 2. Recognize important
differences in medication pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics in the
morbidly obese patient. 3. Describe effective resuscitation interventions
unique to the obese patient. 4. List relevant complications in obese patients
presenting with traumatic injuries or burns.
Description: Obesity and morbid obesity are growing in prevalence in
the North American population at an astounding rate. Estimates place
24.1% of Canadian adults and 35.9% of American adults as obese, and
approximately 3% as morbidly obese. This patient population has important
baseline physiologic changes to their cardiovascular, respiratory, and
gastrointestinal systems that can have profound ramifications for clinical
management. In addition, drug pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics
can be dramatically altered in these patients for a multitude of reasons. In a
lecture format, this presentation will provide important insight for clinicians
into these physiologic and pharmacologic changes in the obese patient. Key
learning points and techniques for patient resuscitation and management
that have come from the recent anesthesia and critical care literature will
be highlighted in a didactic and case-based format. Specifically, airway
techniques, fluid resuscitation and pharmacologic principles unique to the
obese patient will be highlighted. Clinicians will be guided through some of
the finer points of management of the critically ill, morbidly obese patient,
as well as areas of particular concern such as trauma and burn patients.

1. Define Title VI of the Civil Rights Act. 2. Discuss possible discriminatory
actions under Title VI. 3. Describe how OCR can address disparities resulting
from bias. 4. Partner with interdisciplinary teams when Title VI compliance
issues arise. 5. Strengthen physician advocacy to raise awareness of health
care disparities caused by discrimination/bias, in alignment with SAEM’s
mission to “lead the advancement of emergency care through education and
advocacy in academic emergency medicine.”
Description: While medical school students and residents are typically
exposed to cutting-edge treatments and technologies, they are rarely
made aware of federal civil rights laws that impact the institutions where
they practice. To address this critical deficiency, the U.S. Department of
Health & Human Services, Office for Civil Rights (OCR), collaborated with
Stanford University School of Medicine and the National Consortium
for Multicultural Education for Health Professionals (Consortium) in
developing a curriculum focused on providing an educational framework for
medical/health professionals to better understand and appreciate racial/
national origin bias/discrimination. The curriculum has been most recently
augmented and presented at the Emory University School of Medicine and
the University of Colorado School of Medicine.
By introducing participants to potential racial/national origin bias/
discrimination, the curriculum seeks to empower them to address these
issues throughout their careers. After attending this session, participants
should also be inspired to learn more about providing health care that
reduces disparities and advances advocacy and communication across
interdisciplinary groups.

DS037: Ultrasound in Resource-limited Settings:
Discussion of Use, Benefits, Research and Sustainable
Program Design
Thursday, May 15 - 8:00 - 9:00 am
1. Describe the unique uses of ultrasound and findings of disease processes
common in the developing world. 2. Understand trends and future directions
in research involving ultrasound in the developing world. 3. List some of the
unique challenges and key components for success in development of an
ultrasound training program in limited-resource settings.
Description: Over the last few decades, emergency department ultrasound
(US) has proven its tremendous clinical utility, making it the standard of
care in emergency departments across the developed world. As the field
of global emergency medicine continues to push further into resourcelimited settings to meet the needs of an increasing unaddressed burden
of acute disease, ultrasound is again proving to be of immense value.
56
Standard emergency department US exams, such as the FAST exam, that
have proven their utility in the developed world continue to show similar, if
not increased, clinical utility in the resource-limited setting, with its limited
access to advanced diagnostic imaging such as CT scanning. Given that the
majority of the world’s population is low-income and resides in resourcepoor locations, and that US is a relatively inexpensive technology that is
becoming increasingly durable and portable, without the risks of ionizing
radiation, there is a selective pressure to expand ultrasound training in
the developing world, in addition to the variety of clinical indications for
US globally. In this didactic, four experts with unique experience in global
health and diagnostic ultrasound will discuss these novel training programs
and uses of US, along with the research that has, and could, stem from these
unique investigations. We will also discuss how the use of US in conjunction
with local epidemiologic data can provide fertile areas of novel clinical
applications and research. Lastly, we will describe tips for and traits of a
sustainable US program in the resource-limited setting, including options
for monitoring and evaluation.

to: 1. Diagnose and assess undergraduate and graduate medical education
learners struggling with clinical reasoning skills. 2. Develop educational
plans and remediation strategies using a framework to assist learners
struggling with clinical reasoning. 3. Develop a list of best practices and
possible tools for the identification, assessment, and remediation of
learners struggling with clinical reasoning.
Description: The acquisition of clinical reasoning skills by physicians
is central to undergraduate and graduate medical education, but how
these skills are acquired, assessed and remediated in struggling learners
represents an important challenge to medical educators. This workshop
will introduce a framework to identify, assess, diagnose and remediate
learners struggling with clinical reasoning difficulties. Presenters will
address the difficulties for educators in identifying such learners and
will provide a framework that both diagnoses the learner and suggests
remediation strategies to pursue. The workshop will illustrate how the
presenters have diagnosed and remediated these kinds of learners using
the suggested framework and actual learner cases. Participants are asked
to bring their own cases and any strategies for diagnosing or remediating
them for discussion at the workshop. The session will conclude by compiling
best practices of methods for the diagnosis and assessment of learners
struggling with clinical reasoning as well as remediation strategies for
medical educators seeking to assist them.

1. Describe discrete event simulation (DES) and contrast its strengths and
limitations with other methodological approaches. 2. Discuss how the use
of DES can enhance the efficiency and performance of modern emergencycare systems. 3. Describe the steps necessary to build an effective and valid
DES model of an emergency-care environment.
Description: Discrete event simulation (DES) is a well-established
methodological approach to analyzing inefficiencies in operational
practices, but to date DES has been infrequently applied to emergency
care. DES is a means of modeling and visualizing ED processes and offers
novel means to address difficult “what if” questions, such as: A) What is
the most effective strategy to meet the latest core measure? B) What
are the effects of two different strategies on patient waiting time? and
C) If staffing resources are limited, where would we most effectively use
those resources? Other statistical methods, such as regression modeling
and queuing theory, cannot handle the complexities of highly variable
patient flow experienced in the ED. DES offers significant advantages for
ED operations research in its ability to evaluate alternative operational
strategies and their effect on ED patient flow, prior to potentially expensive
and hazardous process implementations. A team of emergency physicians
with expertise in operations research and computer science will discuss
how to effectively work with a modeler, necessary steps and common
pitfalls in building robust models, and how to effectively use DES to enhance
patient flow in your ED. Presenters will review prior research applying DES
to ED environments, promising research opportunities using DES, and how
to critically review reports of DES in the literature. Finally, presenters will
describe first steps in developing such an enterprise, identifying partners
within and beyond their home institutions.

to:1. Identify 5 critical elements and 4 basic structural components of a
successful study proposal. 2. Describe, and avoid, 4 key mistakes made
by junior researchers in study design and proposal. 3. Understand how to
maximize the success of their own study proposals.
Description: A perennial issue for junior EM investigators is lack of guidance in,
and experience with, the development and funding of initial small-scale study
proposals. Many senior investigators believe that creating and getting funding for
a research proposal is similar to the entrepreneurial process of developing and
funding a business proposal. Drawing on the innovative and humorous format of
the popular “Shark Tank” television show, this didactic’s panel of senior emergency
medicine researchers will provide real-time guidance on this model of proposal
development. The didactic will begin with a brief presentation on the 5 critical
elements of a grant proposal. We will introduce the 4 basic structural components
of a successful proposal: the concept (the unmet need); the plan (how they are
going to solve it); the outcome (what the metric of success is); and the credentials
(why we should “invest” in them). We will then offer junior researchers the chance to
present their study ideas to our “Shark Tank” panel. (Proposals will be solicited in
advance from the SAEM Research Fellowship Committee listserv; we will also save
space for impromptu presentations from audience members.) Each proposal will
be presented using a standard format. It will then be critiqued by panelists. For the
most successful proposals, we will offer a true “investment” in the form of distance
mentorship by panel members, as well as the opportunity to obtain priority review
with Academic Emergency Medicine and/or Annals of Emergency Medicine.

to:1. Design and implement simulation and standardized patient-based
educational programs for the out-of-hospital setting. 2. Develop and utilize
assessment tools to evaluate individual skills and effective teamwork, with
particular focus on assessment related to the ACGME’s Milestones project.
Description: This course will provide instruction on the development of
educational programs for the purpose of teaching skills for the care of
patients in resource-limited, austere, or out-of-hospital environments.
The course will present the framework for scenario design utilizing
standardized patients and high-fidelity manikins in the in-situ or simulation
lab environment. Also, methods for didactic design for the “outside”
locations will be presented. Additionally, this course will provide instruction
on methods to teach individual skills, improvisational procedural skills,
and teamwork training for resource-limited settings. The development
and utilization of assessment tools will be discussed, with particular focus
on incorporating EM-Milestones-focused assessment of cognitive and
behavioral performance standards and procedural skills competencies into
the traditional critical action checklists, behavioral ratings, and algorithm
compliance ratings. Further, this course will delineate how scenario-based
teaching can be used as a platform to instruct residents on educational
theory and how to hone bedside teaching skills. Lastly, this course will
discuss modified debriefing techniques and the utilization of portable
technology for teaching and debriefing in the out-of-hospital setting.

DS042: A CLER Plan: Implementing a Patient Safety
Council for Residents and Fellows
Thursday, May 15 - 9:00 - 10:00 am
to: 1. Describe CLER objectives. 2. Implement a resident- and fellow-driven
Patient Safety Council to demonstrate trainee involvement in patient
safety and quality improvement.
Description: In response to the Clinical Learning Environment Review
program established by the ACGME, residencies and institutions will need
to demonstrate their trainees’ engagement in patient safety and quality
improvement. To accomplish these goals, the graduate medical office
at Indiana University looked internally to the leaders of patient safety
in resident education, the Emergency Medicine Residency Program. We
established a Patient Safety Council, comprised of residents, fellows,
faculty mentors, and hospital leaders, that is trainee-directed and driven.
This group was based on the existing Emergency Medicine Committee
established 9 years ago, still thriving today. In the first half of the session,
we will briefly summarize the new GME landscape as a result of the ACGME
2011 updates, including the CLER initiative. We will then share the planning
that successfully launched the Patient Safety Council, and how we maintain
ownership by the residents while guiding the direction of the Council’s
objectives through faculty advisors. We will also share current projects
and long-term goals of the Council, and demonstrate how this Council has
assisted our program in meeting the CLER objectives. The last half of the
session will involve small-group discussion on QIPS activities ongoing at
58
participants’ institutions, using guided question worksheet and scenarios
to guide the table discussions and increase the potential for take-home
learning, as well as brainstorming for potential resident projects and council
objectives. Best practice sharing, responses to scenarios, and Q & A will be
interactive and participatory.

DS043: Catapulting to the Pinnacle of Best Evidence:
Conducting a Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis to
Jumpstart your Research Career
Thursday, May 15 - 9:00 - 10:00 am
Objectives: At the completion of this session, participants should be
able to: 1. List the resources and mentorship team necessary to conduct a
systematic review. 2. Select a research question and work with a medical
librarian to design a database query. 3. Perform independent review, analyze
results using statistical concepts of pooling and heterogeneity, and submit
a manuscript report of the systematic review/meta-analysis. 4. Discuss the
role of the systematic review in advancing a professional research career.
Description: Systematic reviews and meta-analyses have exploded in the
medical literature since 2000, with almost 10,000 systematic reviews being
published in the last 4 years alone. This specialized formal technique affords
the reader a comprehensive answer to a clinical question, but conducting
the review correctly requires specialized training and mentorship. This
session will be led by two experts in systematic review methodology, and
will focus on how to conduct and publish a first systematic review. At the
end of the session, participants will be able to demonstrate how to build a
team of collaborators, work with a medical librarian to formulate a rigorous
database search, perform independent review, analyze results using
statistical concepts of pooling and heterogeneity, and submit a manuscript
developed using the guidelines of the PRISMA statement. Participants will
be exposed to examples of both diagnostic and therapeutic reviews and
should expect to be able to conduct a systematic review/meta-analysis
with mentorship at the conclusion of this session. Presenters will use
examples from their own experience in conducting systematic reviews/
meta-analyses to highlight the strengths and pitfalls of these methods, and
speakers will discuss the use of a systematic review and meta-analysis in
advancing a professional research career.

DS045: Generating Scholarship through Industry
Partnerships
Thursday, May 15 - 10:30 - 11:30 am
to: 1. Describe social determinants of health and their impact on emergency
care. 2. Identify research modalities that can be used to study the social
determinants of health impacts in emergency medicine. 3. Develop a
research agenda that focuses on identifying the roots of disparities in
emergency care.
Description: Healthy People 2020 has selected social determinants as
a Leading Health Indicator in an effort to recognize that an individual or
population’s environment plays a crucial role in influencing health outcomes.
Additionally, policy makers, clinicians, and researchers have begun to
analyze with a renewed focus the root causes of diseases in Americans. As
the emergency department often provides the safety net for our health
care system, emergency physicians have unique insight into the social
causes of disease and are frequently afforded opportunities to study and
monitor these effects. Health services and social science researchers have
played an integral part in demonstrating the role of social determinants on
health care utilization and access. With the implementation of the Patient
Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA), emergency care researchers
are leading the way in determining its impact on access to care. This didactic
to: 1. Give a detailed description of steps needed to develop a robust and
productive career as an academic emergency physician specializing in
wilderness medicine. 2. Describe how the skill set of wilderness medicine can
benefit other emergency medicine subspecialties (disaster, international,
and ultrasound). 3. Recognize and avoid hazards to a productive research
and teaching career.
Description: This workshop will give practical, concrete instruction on
how to create a productive career as an academic emergency physician
who specializes in wilderness medicine. It will be taught as a workshop by
the leading faculty of nationally known wilderness medicine fellowship
programs. We will describe detailed measures required to advance
individual careers and the specialty of wilderness medicine within academic
EM. Our “how-to” format will have three primary foci: 1) Developing clinical
care skills; 2) Understanding strategies for successful teaching; and 3)
Safeguarding a productive and rewarding research and teaching career.
Our goal is to provide participants with practical knowledge so that they
may develop an individualized road map to succeed in their careers. We will
highlight how to build productive relationships within emergency medicine
(with disaster, international, and ultrasound expertise) as well as with other
specialties and experts.

to: 1. List ways to creatively partner with industry to accomplish academic
goals. 2. Identify components of workflow for an industry-funded project.
3. Describe legal and ethical potential conflicts in partnering with industry.
4. Understand precepts to ensure industry partnerships result in legitimate
scholarship.
Description: Emergency medicine researchers face many challenges
when conducting research. Industry-funded research can be a means
to accomplish research objectives. Such endeavors can be valuable
components of academic EM research missions, but they also present
unique challenges. These include approaches to access such funds,
limitations on types of studies conducted, financial or legal implications of
conducting such research, and issues related to academic freedom,such as
publication rights, data ownership, patents and copyright. The purpose of
this didactic is to discuss how to find and leverage industry relationships to
accomplish academic goals, how to ensure such efforts result in legitimate
scholarship, and how to manage such relationships to maintain integrity. In
this session, a panel of researchers with experience working with industry
will describe the general workflow of an industry-funded project, provide
examples of successful investigator-initiated proposals, demonstrate
how industry-initiated studies can lead to scholarship, explain how to
navigate legal hurdles during the contracting process, and advise on how
to maintain academic integrity during such research. Short presentations
on each of these topics will alternate with panel input and discussion.
Novice researchers and seasoned veterans alike should benefit from these
presentations and discussion.

DS048: Across Genders and Generations: Effective
Feedback and Communication in Emergency Medicine
Thursday, May 15 - 10:30 - 11:30 am
to: 1. Understand the importance of effective feedback on patient care
and career satisfaction. 2. Identify gender and generational differences in
feedback and conflict resolution. 3. Use provided strategies to overcome
gender and generational barriers to effective communication and feedback.
4. Acknowledge that individuals equipped to recognize, appreciate and
manage these differences will have an advantage in the modern workplace.
Description: Have you ever been reluctant to approach an older male
physician with a patient care question because you just heard him swear at
the EMR? Have you felt like you were walking a tightrope by giving feedback
to a young female resident because you were worried that she may become
visibly upset? Been approached by a medical student who is afraid to voice
his or her response to an offensive comment made by another attending?
Feedback and effective team communication are vital for reduction
of medical errors, staff morale, patient satisfaction and professional
development. Both can be challenging, especially given the potential
59
misunderstandings surrounding gender and generational stereotypes
and differences. This session will highlight a handful of common gender
and generational differences, as well as personality traits that may affect
effective team communication and feedback. The session will also provide
the learner with tools to effectively identify and manage these gaps.
The session will be a 50-minute moderated, case-based session that will
discuss multiple scenarios in which there is a gender, generational, or
personality mismatch between the evaluator’s and evaluatee’s perceptions
and expectations. An expert panel consisting of gender, generation and
feedback specialists will then elucidate the roots of these mismatches and
provide concrete tips to help bridge differences and identify shared desired
outcomes. Cases will then be “rerun” to model reframing and wording.

DS049: Achieving your Milestones Through Simulation
Thursday, May 15 - 10:30 - 11:30 am
to: 1. Describe a method of creating milestone-based simulation scenarios
from existing scenarios 2. Describe the process for implementing a
simulation-based assessment. a3. Determine the resources required for
implementation at their particular institution.
Description: With the implementation of the Next Accreditation System
this academic year, residency leadership is confronted with a challenge and
an opportunity to drastically alter how residents are assessed. Specifically,
all residents must be assessed using criterion-referenced milestones
twice annually. Simulation is now widely used for education and formative
feedback in emergency medicine residency programs, but there has been
no prior experience with simulation for milestone-specific assessment. A
group of simulation experts nationwide has endeavored to design, validate,
and pilot scenarios and assessment tools to fill this gap. This session will
begin with a presentation of a tool to convert existing simulation scenarios
into robust milestone-linked assessment tools. Panelists will then discuss
their experiences in implementing large-scale milestone assessments
in their residency programs, with a focus on resource needs, faculty and
resident buy-in, and logistical considerations.

Thursday, May 15 - 10:30 - 11:30 am
to: 1. Describe two potential ways to turn their own educational activities
into scholarship. 2. Describe how to increase research productivity through
teams. 3. Identify which educational opportunities are the most high-yield
for strengthening one’s CV.
Description: Many medical educators spend the majority of their time on
clinical education, often at the expense of other activities that would help
them build a portfolio for promotion and/or advancement within their
institution. The list of areas encouraged for promotion includes: clinical
60
and didactic teaching, curriculum/assessment/evaluation development,
leadership, mentorship, scholarly teaching, research/scholarship, service,
awards and honors. How are educators to address these missions while
continuing to excel in teaching? In this session, we will investigate how
increasing productivity in these other areas will lead to successful career
advancement and promotion. This workshop will be presented by the CORD
Academy for Scholarship in Education in Emergency Medicine, whose
members have been selected as national top-tier faculty in the areas of
education scholarship, education leadership, teaching and evaluation,
and enduring educational materials. The session will be highly interactive,
requiring participants to call upon their own context, responsibilities
and priorities. First, two academy members will deliver a short didactic
presentation and introduce a large-group discussion. Anticipated topics
will include turning an education into scholarship and other high-visibility
projects, how to increase research productivity through teams, thinking
about one’s teaching portfolio, and time management. Participants will then
engage in facilitated small-group discussions with an Academy member
to allow individualized mentoring, in order to plan individual increased
productivity. Finally, each group will report out important lessons learned
for the benefit of the large audience.

DS051: Medication Management: A Niche in Patient Safety
for Emergency Physicians
Thursday, May 15 - 11:30 am - 12:30 pm
Objectives: At the end of this session, participants should be able to:
1. Define medication management (MM) and related terms. 2. Discuss
knowledge gaps in MM in the academic medical center and ED and potential
research needed to address these limitations. 3. Describe medication safety
curricular needs for faculty, residents, nurses, and pharmacists, with a focus
on how medication safety can be used to support faculty development in
assessing and implementing important patient safety and quality concepts
required by ACGME’s CLER program. 4. Identify opportunities to focus on
ED MM as a career niche.
Description: Emergency physicians (EPs) are increasingly stakeholders
in the process of safe and effective medication use (i.e., medication
management, or MM) due to the expanding spectrum of medications used
in the ED, drug shortages, use of high-alert medications (HAMs), and care
of populations with high-risk co-morbid conditions. There are important
means by which EPs can enhance the quality, safety, and efficiency of
patient care while building a career in academic EM.
This session will be divided into three parts:
The first part will introduce the principles of MM, and describe how to
advance a curriculum on medication safety specific to EM. Standard
and innovative techniques should teach residents, faculty, nurses, and
pharmacists about safe and appropriate use of HAMs, integration of new
medications into clinical practice, drug shortages, conservative prescribing,
and the epidemiology and management of adverse drug events (ADEs) and
medication errors (MEs). This approach can be integrated into the training
curriculum to highlight relevant tools, such as event reporting, root cause
analysis, and team training, allowing a residency to meet the ACGME
requirements to demonstrate proficiency in patient safety and quality
improvement during CLER assessments.
The second part will describe the importance of active involvement in
relevant medical center and departmental safety and quality efforts.
This includes committee work, development of guidance for high-risk/
uncommonly used medications, assessment and prevention of ADEs
and MEs, and enhancing computerized order entry. We will also discuss
how to incorporate a collaborative, multidisciplinary institutional and
departmental focus on safety rounds, and explore opportunities for clinical
pharmacists and mid-level providers to impact quality and safe medication
use.
The last part will discuss the role of involvement outside of the medical
center with local, state, and national groups that focus on quality and
safety. This will include how developing a focus on MM can lead to academic
success, satisfaction, and promotion.

to: 1. Review the U.N. Millennium Development Goals for 2015. 2. Define how
point-of-care ultrasound can help manage the leading causes of mortality
and morbidity in children worldwide. 3. Discuss future directions for pointof-care ultrasound in global health.
Description: Pneumonia and diarrhea are the leading killers of the world’s
children under 5 years of age and are targets for the U.N. Millennium
Development Goals for 2015. The World Health Organization estimates that
over two-thirds of the world’s population lacks access to any diagnostic
imaging technologies, especially in developing countries in places such as
sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia. Point-of-care ultrasound is a feasible
and sustainable solution in addressing this worldwide disparity. This didactic
will focus on point-of-care ultrasound applications that can be applied to
the leading causes of mortality and morbidity in children worldwide. By
addressing methods to overcoming barriers in settings that lack ultrasoundtrained health care professionals as well as presenting technologies
1. Recognize the value of medical school capstone courses as foundations
for the ACGME Milestones while further expanding emergency medicine’s
role in undergraduate medical education. 2. Articulate the key goals and
objectives of a capstone course. 3. Provide examples of learner-centered
approaches to enhance the effectiveness of capstone courses.
Description: There is no quantitative difference in the knowledge or skills of
physicians-in-training on the last day of medical school and the first day of
residency, yet their degree of responsibility is markedly different. Residents
serve as problem-solvers and first responders for many emergencies
that occur throughout the hospital, yet there is little guarantee trainees
have adequate experience in dealing with common emergencies. Clinical
capstones serve as an opportunity to address this gap in experience by
reviewing high-yield clinical concepts that underlie emergencies commonly
experienced by residents. While capstone courses demonstrate the
practical application of emergency-medicine training outside the ED, they
are also important opportunities to ensure learners are prepared to enter
residency at Level 1 of the Milestones described in the Next Accreditation
System by the ACGME. Capstone courses ideally serve as a multi-purpose
tool to: 1) allow students to synthesize and apply major themes and learning
points from their medical training; 2) offer an opportunity to remediate and
address deficiencies; 3) provide an assessment of the learners’ readiness
for residency; and 4) offer an evaluation of the overall medical school
curriculum. Our workshop will introduce the concept of and evidence for
clinical capstones while emphasizing resource creation and sharing among
participants. We will describe curricular content around topics such as
shock and resident wellness, along with innovative teaching modalities,
including high- and low-fidelity simulation, case-based learning, and roleplaying. Group discussions will highlight opportunities and challenges that
are experienced in the design and implementation of capstones currently
offered at several institutions.

to: 1.Understand the broader value of an EM research associates program
(EMRAP) to support EM research activities. 2.Describe ways to address
new/increased IRB requirements that impact RA programs. 3. Explain
successful strategies for expanding the scope and effectiveness of
EMRAPs. 4. List multiple best practices to incorporate into EMRAPs.
Description: Performing underfunded research in the emergency
department is a challenge. Many emergency departments have developed
research or academic associates (RA) programs, usually with undergraduate
or recent postgraduate students as unpaid research assistants in the
ED. The number of RA programs has grown substantially in the past 10
years. However, most existing RA programs are relatively small, many
are struggling, and few take advantage of their full potential to support
research activities. In this session, speakers with extensive experience in
developing and running these programs will describe their best practices,
insights and suggestions to creatively broaden the range of research
activities in a program while also avoiding some of the pitfalls that may
occur. Topics to be covered will include: meeting new IRB requirements that
impact RA programs; negotiating sufficient support from your department;
running the program with a positive financial balance sheet; structuring
the program to minimize administrative demands on the faculty and staff;
creative approaches to providing educational sessions; roles in assisting
with industry-sponsored clinical trials; legal regulation pitfalls to avoid; and
expanded RA roles beyond subject screening in the ED.

solutions to incorporating cost-effectiveness education into resident
training. 3. Identify emergency medicine practices for which adoption of
more evidence-based cost-effective approaches would have greatest
impact. 4. Describe how to assess knowledge retention and impact on
clinical practice.
Description: As ED visits increase and account for a growing share of hospital
admissions, strategies to contain emergency medical costs are increasingly
important. Recent studies have shown that increased blood testing, IV
medications, and radiography contribute to increased length of stay and ED
crowding, which can be associated with adverse outcomes and higher rates
of errors. Additionally, variation in hospital admission from the ED has been
documented among emergency physicians. Incorporating evidence-based
cost-conscious practices into residency training is important because of
its potential to shape future practice patterns. The purpose of this didactic
session is to help attendees understand how to incorporate education
regarding cost-conscious care into their training programs. We will
introduce examples of existing educational initiatives that have addressed
this subject in emergency medicine and other specialties. We will examine
barriers to implementation and potential solutions that address how these
might be overcome. Finally, we will discuss assessment methods to evaluate
the effectiveness of these educational initiatives. Dr. Schuur will moderate
the session and give a brief overview of the imperative for cost-conscious
care. Dr. Shah will discuss the Teaching Value Project and efforts to educate
health care providers on costs across various medical specialties. Dr. Lin
will discuss how to adapt evidence-based cost-conscious education to
emergency medicine training, using the example of a curriculum that she
introduced as a senior resident. There will be 10 minutes for questions.

DS056: Defining and Assessing Team Leadership in
Emergency Medicine
1. Describe the current status of team leadership assessment in emergency
health care teams. 2. Understand how team science can be applied to
leadership assessment in emergency health care teams. 3. Discuss the
assessment of team leadership in terms of the current Accreditation
Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) milestones. 4. Identify
where opportunities for team leadership assessment research might exist.
Description: Team leadership is critical to the effective performance of
health care teams, especially those that function in highly variable, dynamic
situations. Undergraduate and graduate medical educators recognize the
need to assess leadership competency. However, while team leadership
skills are represented within the current ACGME Milestones for Emergency
Medicine, scientifically grounded mechanisms for assessment have not
been clearly delineated. Faculty will begin this session by presenting
the results of a comprehensive systematic review to highlight current
practices in health care team leadership assessment. They will note gaps
in knowledge and evidence, pointing out where research is needed to
better define best practices. Faculty will examine the current ACGME
Milestones and identify areas where leadership skills are combined with
other components of trainee assessment. This will then be discussed from a
measurement and assessment science perspective. Faculty will describe a
leadership model and assessment framework that support the assessment
of team leadership in health care teams, highlighting the potential for future
research.

DS057: The Value of Non-Accredited Fellowships for the
Modern Academic Emergency Physician
Thursday, May 15 - 1:30 - 2:30 pm
to: 1. Identify the short-term pros and cons of pursuing non-accredited
fellowship training. 2. Describe the impact of fellowship training on
academic job prospects and future career goals. 3. Evaluate the various
offerings included in non-accredited fellowship training and their impact
upon fellow wellness and job satisfaction during fellowship and afterwards.
Description: Of the 31 fellowship opportunities listed in the SAEM catalog,
only seven potentially result in board certification (Sports Medicine,
Hyperbaric Medicine, Toxicology, Pediatric Emergency Medicine, Critical
Care, Palliative Care, and EMS). The rest of the available experiences vary
greatly in the length and breadth of training, protected time, salary, work
hours, research support, and future opportunities for career development.
Weighing the benefits of these offerings against the opportunity cost of
reduced salary during training is daunting for the graduating or recently
graduated resident. Each member of the panel has graduated from a nonaccredited fellowship and is at a different stage in their career (immediate,
two, three, and six years post fellowship) and will discuss their motivations
in selecting training, the pros/cons of their decision, and how that decision
has affected their academic career. Specific emphasis will be placed upon
evaluating potential non-accredited fellowships and their offerings (i.e.
salary, curricula, lengths of training, locations of training, off-service
experiences, protected time, on-call requirements, shift obligations, work
hours, benefits, advanced degree programs, research support).

DS058: How (and Why) to Peer-Review a Manuscript
Thursday, May 15 - 1:30 - 2:30 pm
to: 1. Describe the role of peer review in the advancement of the scientific
literature. 2. List four key components of a high-quality peer review. 3.
Specify two ways in which performing peer review can contribute to
professional development.
Description: Academic emergency physicians with scholarship experience
and expertise are well-positioned to serve as peer reviewers for scientific
journals. High-quality peer reviews help ensure the quality of the research
that guides the clinical practice of emergency care, and can contribute
to the professional development of the reviewer. This session will briefly
review how peer review contributes to the advancement of the scientific
literature, but will primarily focus on how to perform a useful peer review,
using the Academic Emergency Medicine peer-review template as a guide.
The attendee should leave the session with sufficient information to begin
conducting peer reviews with minimal mentoring.

DS059: The Why, the What and the How of Developing
“Physician as Educator” Programs for Medical Students
and Residents
Thursday, May 15 - 1:30 - 2:30 pm
1. Recognize the importance of the development of “physician as educator”
programs for residents and students. 2. Identify the key modules to include
in the development of a “physician as educator” curriculum. 3. Recognize
the importance of providing opportunities for learners to practice their
clinical teaching skills and receive feedback from experienced educators. 4.
Discuss examples of successful “physician as educator” programs.
Description: The role of a physician as teacher is almost as important as his
or her role as healer. The LCME and the ACGME require medical schools and
residency programs to provide opportunities for both residents and medical
students to develop themselves as educators. This interactive session
seeks to discuss a rationale and impetus for developing “medical student
as educator” and “resident as educator” programs, a suggested curriculum
for topics that may provide the initial structure for these programs, and the
logistical challenges in implementing such programs. In particular, medical
educators must not only create a curriculum of topics, but also provide
the supportive environment in which learners can successfully practice
their teaching skills. Ideally, these experiences should be supervised
by an experienced educator who provides meaningful feedback to the
learner about their teaching. Presenters will solicit participants for their
experiences with instituting “physician as educator” programs, highlight the
successes and hurdles of developing these curricula at their institutions, and
create a list of best practices among presenters and audience participants.

1. Define the mission and scope of PCORI. 2. Describe how an emergency care
researcher can conduct patient-centered outcomes research. 3. Use PCORI
methods and standards to win PCORI grants.
Description: The Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI),
a public research entity created by the Affordable Care Act, is a major
source of funding now and for the foreseeable future for patient-oriented
comparative effectiveness research. It has unique relevance for emergency
care and emergency care research. Over $500 million in grants are expected
to be distributed annually. Those who are interested in learning about PCORI
opportunities must first understand the unique approach PCORI takes to
funding and developing projects in this arena. This panel discussion will be
an insider’s guide to the PCORI enterprise, featuring members of the grants
review committee, an emergency medicine PCORI principal investigator,
and patient advisors who have participated in the essential patient role
in developing and executing PCORI projects. It will be moderated by an
emergency physician who currently holds a contract to work with PCORI
to enhance dissemination of PCOR standards. In accordance with PCORI’s
mission, it is essential for this didactic to include the perspectives of not just
current investigators, but also reviewers and patients themselves. Zachary
Meisel (moderator) will introduce the session with a “primer on PCORI
methods and standards.” Erik P. Hess will speak on the “Nuts and Bolts of
a Successful PCORI Grant.” Michel Demers and Annie LeBlanc will speak on
the process of contributing patient and caregiver voices to PCORI research
projects. Judd E. Hollander will compare and contrast the approaches to
grant writing between PCORI and other funding sources. Deborah B. Diercks
will speak on “What Really Goes on at PCORI Grants Review Sessions.”

Objectives: At the completion of the session, participants should be able to:
1. Understand the impact of shared-risk models on the delivery of emergency
care. 2. Define shared-risk models, accountable care organizations, and
payment reform. 3. Conceptualize how quality and cost should be measured
in emergency care. 4. Explore the implications of shared-risk models on the
practice of emergency medicine.
Description: Shared-risk models are designed to distribute the risk of costs
among several participants in an enterprise. The passage of the Patient
Protection and Affordable Care Act has accelerated the development of
accountable care organizations (ACOs), which involve risk-sharing between
payers and providers in an effort to create financial incentives for highvalue care. In particular, reimbursement for health services is evolving to
pay for the quality of care instead of the quantity. This session will include
a discussion of several aspects of health reform’s impact on the delivery of
emergency care. We will first begin with an overview of shared-risk models,
and ACOs in particular. We will then consider the role of emergency medicine
in ACO quality measurement, specifically the effect of emergency care on
current and potential ACO measures, and on balancing the need for targeted
ED measures with ACO population measures. Next, we will focus on payment
reform. The transition to ACOs and non-fee-for-service-based methods of
payment will require a better understanding of both the cost of emergency
care and the role the ED plays in reducing both ED and downstream health
care expenditures. We will focus on the financing of emergency care,
potential strategies for the reduction of costs associated with emergency
care, and the unique role of the ED within global payment systems. Lastly,
we will conclude by examining the impact of shared-risk models on the
practice of emergency medicine. Specifically, we will address how these
changes in health care delivery are relevant to emergency providers and
researchers and discuss strategies for being proactive and not reactive to
policy mandates that are likely forthcoming.

DS062: Talking Your Way to a More Satisfied and
Compliant Patient: How Can the Literature Help Us Refine
Our Communication Skills?
Thursday, May 15 - 2:30 - 3:30 pm
1. Discuss the barriers to effective communication that an ED provider can
experience. 2. Explain key communication strategies that can enhance the
63
patient-provider encounter. 3. Classify high-risk communication times and
discuss strategies to maximize the chance of a good outcome. 4. Examine
the available literature on ED provider communication and its effect on
patient satisfaction and compliance.
Description: In an era of ED crowding, throughput measurements, and
patient satisfaction scores, the conflict for providers between providing
efficient, cost-effective care and still having satisfied patients has
continued to grow. Provider time with the patient is short, and this session
will focus on how to make the most of it. Providers at any level can take
something away from this session. This didactic will cover the current state
of the patient experience as documented in the literature. How much time
do we spend with our patients? Do you know what patients expect when
they come to see you? Is spending more time with the patient the only
way to make them happy? What are the most important parts of a patient
encounter, and how are we doing with them? Can you maximize them to help
patients take better care of themselves when they leave? Are there highyield communication times that should have focused training? The speakers
will explore the literature available on these topics and discuss challenges,
barriers for residents, and solutions for having a more effective patient
encounter and a more satisfied patient.

DS063: Predatory Journals: The Landscape of PeerReviewed Publication in the Open-Access Era
Thursday, May 15 - 2:30 - 3:30 pm
to: 1. Analyze the relative advantages and disadvantages of open-access
publication. 2. Describe the definition of a predatory journal. 3. Take 3 steps
to avoid being taken advantage of by predatory journals.
Description: Open-access journals have widely proliferated in the past
several years. Originally, these journals were heralded as transforming the
field of academic publishing, bringing scientific advances to a wide global
audience. However, this publication model is facing new funding models,
including “pay to publish,” in which revenue to support the journal comes
from publication fees charged to authors, rather than from advertising,
subscription fees, or society dues. A subset of open-access journals, the
so-called “predatory journals,” exists only to make money from publication
fees. They often have similar names as high-level academic journals, and
solicit manuscripts through spam e-mail without disclosure of their fees.
As discussed in a recent editorial in Annals of Emergency Medicine, these
predatory journals are threatening the legitimacy of scientific publishing.
How are academic societies and researchers to approach the open vs.
classical publishing dilemma? Dr. David Cone will begin by discussing the
state of open-access publishing in today’s academic landscape. He will
provide his perspective on the market impact of open-access publishing,
and will discuss publication strategies for researchers at various career
stages. Jeffrey Beall, manager of “Beall’s List,” a frequently updated list of
predatory journals, has presented his work internationally and is considered
a world expert on the issue. He will discuss the impetus for establishing
his list, review the methods used for determining which are journals are
“predatory” and which are “legitimate,” and specify how to avoid becoming
prey for these academically dishonest companies.

DS064: Policy Change 102: Public Scholarship for
Emergency Physicians
Thursday, May 15 - 2:30 - 3:30 pm
64
1.Define public scholarship and its role in emergency medicine. 2. Articulate
how to get involved with the primary current formats for public scholarship:
online op-eds, Twitter, and the blogosphere. 3. Design a plan for personal
involvement in public scholarship, including a way to receive academic credit
for one’s efforts.
Description: In “Policy Change 101,” we discussed the basics of health care
policy and how emergency physicians can incorporate advocacy into their
academic work. This year we will expand our discussion to focus on public
scholarship, which will give our participants the skill sets needed to make
their advocacy ideas a reality. Public opinion is increasingly shaped by
non-traditional sources, such as online news magazines, blogs, and social
networking sites (including Facebook and Twitter). Active involvement in
these media through “public scholarship” therefore has the potential to have
a huge impact on medical care, public health, and health care policy. Although
many emergency physicians participate in online medical education
discussions (“FOAMed”), fewer are actively involved in public scholarship. In
this didactic, three emergency physicians who are actively involved in this
novel form of scholarship will discuss ways that our specialty can contribute
to the public discussion of critical health issues. We will begin with a
discussion of the concept of public scholarship. We will then discuss the
relative advantages and disadvantages of blogs (Radecki), Twitter (Ranney),
and online Op-Eds (Houry) for disseminating research, influencing public
opinion, and creating community dialogues. For each form of scholarship, we
will provide an overview of the process for getting started in each medium;
potential pitfalls; and ways to maximize one’s time spent. We will close with
a question-and-answer panel discussion session. Throughout the session,
we will live-tweet our discussion using the #SAEM14 hashtag, to increase
wider EM community involvement in the discussion.

DS065: Coping with Rejection in Research: Resiliency
Strategies to Effectively Move Forward After a Setback
Thursday, May 15 - 4:00 - 5:00 pm
1. Understand that rejection is a part of doing research. 2. Describe specific
practical techniques for addressing reviewer comments and revising grant
applications/manuscripts to maximize success. 3. Identify and adopt
strategies to overcome psychological effects of academic rejection.
Description: All researchers face rejection at some point in their careers.
One measure of a successful researcher is how he or she responds to these
rejections. Moving forward after a rejection requires both psychological
fortitude and a practical plan. The purpose of this didactic is to discuss
ways to cope with rejection and specific practical techniques for moving
a project forward after a setback. The discussion will focus on two main
topics: 1) Practical aspects of moving a project forward after a rejection.
Panelists will discuss how they have gone on to success after a grant or a
manuscript was rejected, using specific examples from their careers. The
discussion on grants will include: performing preliminary studies, revising
a grant application in response to reviews, bringing on collaborators, and
targeting a re-application to the goals of the funding agency. The discussion
on manuscript preparation will describe how to read reviews constructively,
incorporate comments (or not), write with reviewers in mind, and target a
re-submission to the most appropriate journal. 2) Psychological aspects
of coping with rejection. While the rejection of a grant or manuscript may
reflect institutional priorities, finances, or other external factors, it is easy
to view a rejection as a personal comment on one’s intelligence or promise
as a researcher. Researchers may be tempted to abandon valuable projects
rather than face the criticism of reviewers and the feeling of having “wasted
time” on work that was not funded or accepted. This discussion will address
ways to cope with these feelings, when to seek advice, and steps for moving
forward.

DS066: Training Pathways for Educators: A Panel
Discussion
Thursday, May 15 - 4:00 - 5:00 pm
Thursday, May 15 - 4:00 - 5:00 pm
1. Describe how social media can fulfill academic responsibilities and relate
to their institution’s promotion/tenure requirements. 2. List ways social
media can lead to career advancement opportunities, including program,
institutional, local, and national levels. 3. Explain opportunities for social
media-related research and collaboration.
Description: Social media has grown in popularity and has become an
engaging tool for educators, trainees, and researchers; however, many
participants are concerned that their academic activities on blogs, Twitter
and podcasts may not earn the same regard and appreciation from promotion
committees as traditional forms of scholarship. The panelists will discuss
how their work in social media has advanced their academic careers, in part
by leading to traditional measures of accomplishment such as committee
positions, speaking opportunities and publications. Presenters will also
discuss how advancement is possible thanks to the increasing adoption of
modern, progressive definitions of influence and audience.

professions education. 2. Assess the utility of the various educational
formats presented in relation to participants’ individual career goals. 3.
Describe strategies for obtaining funding and protected time in order to
complete a formal education program.
Description: While education is a core mission of all medical disciplines and
is carried out on a daily basis both at the bedside and in the classroom, there
has historically been a lack of emphasis on “teaching the teachers.” This
panel will serve to highlight the options available to emergency physicians
seeking formal training in leadership, educational theories and modalities,
curriculum development and assessment, and education research. The
panel will be comprised of EM physicians who are currently participating in
or have recently completed the following education programs: Fellowship in
Medical Education, Master’s in Healthcare Professions Education (MHPE),
SAEM Education Fellowship Grant, and ACEP Teaching Fellowship. These
members will speak about their career paths, the resources they used to
attend formal education programs, as well as their personal experiences
with these programs and how they relate to their academic goals and
achievements.

DS068: A Cadaver-Based Curriculum for UltrasoundGuided Applications and Procedures: A Promising
Alternative in Emergency Ultrasound Education
Friday, May 16 - 8:00 - 9:00 am
Location: San Antonio Ballroom A
to: 1. Define what is required to successfully incorporate a cadaver-based
educational curriculum. 2. Present an effective, safe method by which
trainees can practice procedures and detect pathologic findings. 3. Examine
how this curriculum can bolster research that addresses improvement in
student learning, comprehension of anatomical structures and pathology,
retention of information, and clinical performance.
Description: As point-of-care ultrasound (POC US) continues to expand
within our practice, the need for an effective educational model that trains
residents to become competent in POC US grows as well. The current
POC US training method (live model scanning) is limited due to the lack of
abnormal or pathologic findings found during scan sessions. Additionally,
invasive procedures cannot be performed on live models, and cannot
be repeated on patients. Thus, educational curriculums that highlight
pathologic findings and allow for safe procedural practice can be very useful
for trainees. During this course, participants will learn how to successfully
incorporate a cadaver-based educational model. Sample US cadaverbased curriculums with lectures on lab experiences; saline injection into
the abdominal cavity, thorax, veins, and joints; creation of bony fractures,
MSK injuries, and foreign bodies; US-guided endotracheal intubations; and
major organs and soft tissues will be presented. Participants should learn
how to start the process of creating a curriculum, how to collaborate other
specialties and government offices. Participants should also be able to
answer three basic questions regarding areas of research that result from
this type of teaching: 1) How this curriculum is more beneficial to the learner
than the regular US teaching or anatomy course; 2) Ways to test whether
this type of learning improves comprehension and retention of material; and
3) Ways to test improvement of technical/proceduralskill.

DS069: Mechanical Treatment of Stroke: Update on Recent
Clinical Trials and Future Directions. Putting Clinical Trials
in Perspective: Pro-Con Debate
Friday, May 16 - 8:00 - 9:00 am
to: 1. Define the available endovascular treatment modalities for acute
ischemic stroke and the patient population that is hypothesized to benefit
from these modalities. 2. Summarize the findings of recent clinical trials
and describe the limitations in terms of application of these treatments. 3.
Compare and contrast the opposing positions on the future of mechanical
treatment in acute ischemic stroke.
Description: Systemic thrombolytic therapy continues to be the only FDAapproved treatment available for patients with acute ischemic stroke.
While its use has increased over the past decade, less than 10% of eligible
78
patients receive this therapy. The main limitation to the use of thrombolysis
continues to be the narrow time-window for treatment. As a result, there
has been significant focus on endovascular treatment of stroke with the
hope of improving outcomes while allowing for a longer time-window. There
have been multiple recent trials (such as the Synthesis, IMS III, and Rescue
trials) evaluating the effectiveness of these modalities on outcome. So
far, the results are far from conclusive. At the same time, endovascular
treatment has become increasingly more common in the clinical setting.
This raises the debate about whether patients are being managed in an
appropriate and evidence-based manner. This presentation will review the
findings of these trials and discuss future directions of research, focusing
on whether we should continue utilizing these technologies and search
for the optimal application versus whether we should shift away from the
mechanical treatments.

DS070: Learner-Centered Feedback: Time To Change the
Conversation
Friday, May 16 - 8:00 - 9:00 am
to: 1. Examine the feedback literature to understand better the change of
focus from teacher to learner. 2. Outline steps required to provide effective
feedback within the new conceptual framework. 3. Implement strategies to
improve learner receptiveness to feedback regarding their clinical teaching
practice.
Description: While educators view providing feedback as a crucial step
towards improving learner performance, the emphasis is shifting from
delivering effective feedback to impacting personal factors that affect
learner responsiveness to feedback. In fact, many experts now view learner
responsiveness to feedback as one of the most important aspects of the
feedback encounter. This session will build on previous sessions focused
on feedback presented at the SAEM Annual Meeting. We will draw upon
seminal articles in the feedback literature to both enable the participant
to understand the psychological impact of feedback from the receiver’s
perspective, and empower participants to employ practical strategies
to successfully engage the learner in accepting feedback. This workshop
will focus on several resident issues, such as poor self-confidence,
overconfidence, poor self-assessment, lack of motivation, and fear. The
session will utilize a combination of short didactic presentations intermixed
with small-group activities. The workshop will utilize large- and small-group
exercises to allow the participant to understand key concepts surrounding
the area of feedback responsiveness and identify strategies to successfully
address these issues. Facilitators will include David Manthey, MD; Robin
Hemphill, MD, MPH; Josh Kornegay, MD; and Thomas Terndrup, MD.

DS071: Redesigning Emergency Care Delivery to Optimize
Patient Care and Grow the Academic Mission
Friday, May 16 - 8:00 - 9:00 am
1.Discuss the radiation dosing associated with various imaging modalities
commonly ordered in the emergency department and the implications
for different patient populations. 2. Identify strategies to minimize
unnecessary use of medical imaging, including the use of electronic clinical
decision support and alternatives to modalities that confer radiation. 3.
Describe strategies to minimize radiation dosing that can be discussed with
participants’ radiology departments.
Description: The United States health care system has seen a rise in the
use of diagnostic imaging, without commensurate improvement in patientcentered outcomes. Emergency departments (EDs) are responsible for
a large percentage of this growth. In many instances, modalities that use
radiation, such as CT scans, are the optimal diagnostic modality in the
ED; however, at times these examinations are unnecessary, and there
can be significant drawbacks. Recently, the cancer risk associated with
diagnostic radiation has been rigorously studied and publicized in the
media. Consequently, physicians should be knowledgeable about the
current understanding of the risks associated with medical radiation, and
the up-to-date strategies involved in minimizing the unnecessary use of
this modality, as well as techniques available to minimize radiation dosing.
This didactic will review the current knowledge regarding diagnostic
imaging and radiation, critically discuss how to incorporate this knowledge
into emergency medicine practice, and discuss state-of-the-art research
examining methods to decrease the unnecessary use of medical imaging.
to: 1. Describe the appearance of essential airway structures on ultrasound.
2. Understand the technical approach to performing airway ultrasound. 3.
Understand the indications for airway ultrasound. 4. Describe ultrasound
findings correlating with: prediction of difficult intubation, assessment
of correct tube size, confirmation of tube placement, safe postprandial
stomach size, landmarks for surgical airways and airway nerve blocks. 4.
Discuss future directions in airway ultrasound.
Description: Ensuring a patent airway during resuscitation of an emergency
patient remains one of the most critical procedures for emergency
physicians. Despite extensive training and an armamentarium of devices for
airway management, there is ongoing morbidity and mortality from airway
complications. Challenges remain in predicting difficult intubations and
correct endotracheal tube size, limiting aspiration, confirming correct tube
position and establishing last-resort surgical airways. Bedside ultrasound
of the airway is emerging as a powerful new tool in emergency airway
assessment and management. Despite an emerging body of literature, most
emergency physicians remain unfamiliar with the powerful applications of
bedside ultrasound in airway management. Our session will begin with an
orientation to the sonographic appearance of important airway structures.
We then provide an up-to-date literature summary and practical “howto” approach for emerging bedside ultrasound applications for airway
management, including: prediction of difficult intubation and appropriate
endotracheal tube size, evaluation of stomach contents, confirmation of
correct endotracheal tube placement, and ultrasound guidance for both
surgical airway procedures and upper-airway nerve blocks (for awake
intubation). This didactic will provide images and videos from actual clinical
experiences to illustrate these techniques and findings. We will describe
our novel approach to airway ultrasound simulation and how to develop a
simple and inexpensive airway ultrasound phantom model. There will also
be a discussion on future research directions as we share our experience in
designing and implementing research protocols in this exciting new area.

DS073: Emergency Ultrasound for Airway Management
MAY 13-17, 2014
1. Understand how modern process improvement tools can fundamentally
redesign emergency care. 2. Understand the importance of analytics. 3.
Integrate educational and research needs of an academic department into
the care redesign process.
Description: The process of delivering emergency care has remained
unchanged for many decades, yet the practice of emergency medicine has
changed dramatically. As most emergency departments are redesigning
care delivery models to meet the needs of patients by focusing on the patient
experience and efficiency, academic departments often struggle to balance
the drive for efficiency with the need to maintain or grow opportunities for
education and research. By taking a data-driven, patient-centered approach
to care redesign, utilizing tools from modern process-improvement
methodologies, academic emergency departments can redesign care to be
efficient and patient-centered while enhancing the academic mission. This
session will include experts in ED operations, process improvement, quality,
safety and education. Dr. Zane will moderate the session, which will begin
with a joint lecture addressing the application of process-improvement
methodology to care redesign and emergency medicine, developing
performance excellence metrics in a meaningful actionable format while
recognizing the unique needs and mission of an academic ED. There will
be a question-and-answer session with audience participation after the
discussion.

DS074: Incentives to Participate in Clinical Trials: Practical
and Ethical Considerations
Friday, May 16 - 9:00 - 10:00 am
Objectives: At the completion of this session, the participants should be able
to: 1. Discuss incentives commonly used to recruit subjects into clinical trials
and retain them for follow-up. 2. Understand the ethical issues surrounding
the nature, scope, and amount of these incentives.
Description: The success of clinical trials depends on the recruitment and
retention of sufficient numbers of subjects. Providing token compensation
in the form of cash, gift cards, or vouchers is a common strategy used for
recruitment and retention. The challenge is to design a program where the
incentives are sufficiently large and salient to attract potential subjects, but
not large enough to be considered coercive. Investigators must decide on
the size of incentives, their timing, and whether to vary the incentive based
on the effort required or inconvenience to the subject. In addition, incentives
must be sensitive to the constraints of grant budgets. The presenters of
this program will review the current status of incentives used in clinical
79
trials of emergency department-based interventions. The first speaker, Dr.
Bernstein, is an experienced investigator who has conducted multiple clinical
trials in the ED. He will survey the current literature to review the types of
incentives used in published EM trials, along with practical pointers from
his own work. Dr. Feldman, a member of the Institutional Review Board at
Boston Medical Center, will discuss ethical considerations regarding clinical
trial incentives, with a focus on how IRBs determine whether incentives are
coercive, and whether they can be scaled to subjects’ socioeconomic status.
Examples from completed trials will be discussed.

DS075: Developing a Curriculum in Advocacy for
Emergency Medicine
Friday, May 16 - 9:00 - 10:00 am
to: 1. Define advocacy as it pertains to medical professionalism in EM. 2.
Understand and apply basic principles of advocacy curriculum development
in emergency medicine residency programs.
Description: Emergency physicians hold the unique position of caring for
patients of all ages and all walks of life, often when they are at their most
vulnerable. On the front lines of medicine, emergency physicians have
both a ground-level and a bird’s-eye view of the individual patient and the
community at large as they are affected by social determinants of health,
such as socioeconomic status, education, employment, and mobility. This
makes academic emergency departments well positioned to train future
emergency physicians in how to navigate the complex landscape of health
care for the betterment of the profession, patients, and society at large.
Given the rapid changes in the health care environment and the likelihood
that emergency physicians will need to be prepared to care for a greater
proportion of vulnerable patients during this delicate transition, it has
never been more imperative for trainees and their faculty educators and
mentors to be comfortable with community engagement, resources, and
health policy. The advancement and dissemination of this knowledge
should be embraced in the academic setting. This didactic session will
introduce the principles of patient-centered advocacy in the emergency
department, with a shift in focus beyond individual patients to inclusion of
communities and policies as defined in the ecologic model of public health.
Participants will learn how to define advocacy in our unique setting, and will
learn introductory principles of curriculum development from experienced
leaders in advocacy education.

DS076: Opioid Prescribing from Our EDs: Where Do We Go
from Here?
Friday, May 16 - 9:00 - 10:00 am
Objectives: At the completion of this session, participants should be
able to: 1. List several of the ED prescribing guidelines that are currently
available and the benefits and limitations of each. 2. Describe medications
and medication combinations that constitute high-risk ED prescribing.
3. Highlight the research on opioid analgesic safety and existing gaps in
outcome-based research related to ED prescribing.
Description: Prescription opioid misuse is responsible for more than
350,000 visits to our EDs annually, and has caused so many deaths that the
CDC has proclaimed it to be an epidemic. There is no doubt that our EDs
have been and continue to be an important source of prescription opioids
that are used nonmedically. ED providers have been placed in the difficult
80
position of being expected to aggressively identify and treat pain while
safely prescribing pain medications in an environment of limited time and
resources, to a population that is likely at high risk of nonmedical opioid
use. To address this complicated situation, emergency physicians need to
be aware of the role ED prescribing plays in the current epidemic, and the
guidance that is available to help in decision-making. This session will bring
together experts in opioid safety, medical toxicology and ED prescribing.
The session will be moderated by Dr. Lewis Nelson, an editor of Goldfrank’s
Toxicologic Emergencies. There will be two presentations (Drs. Hoppe and
Perrone) of 15 minutes each: 1) A review of baseline ED prescribing data,
opioid prescribing rates, and available ED pain management guidelines and
how they are accessed and utilized, and 2) A discussion of recent changes
in drug labeling, REMS programs, and high-risk features. Both speakers
will include a description of the available outcomes data on ED opioid
prescribing and research gaps. This will be followed by a brief question-andanswer session.

DS077: Respecting Pulmonary Embolism: Treating the
Spectrum of Disease from Outpatient Management to
Systemic Thrombolytics
Friday, May 16 - 9:00 - 10:00 am
to: 1. Discuss the importance of pulmonary embolism risk stratification in
the emergency department. 2. Describe the general patient characteristics
currently understood to be safe for short-term observation and outpatient
management vs. those deserving consideration for advanced therapies. 3.
Identify the variations and challenges in managing pulmonary embolism. 4.
Describe future research directions in treatment of pulmonary embolism.
Description: Pulmonary Embolism (PE) is a potentially life-threatening
diagnosis often made in the emergency department (ED). However, the size
and location of a PE, as well as numerous patient factors, make treating the
spectrum of PE challenging. In recent years, research efforts have focused
on risk-stratifying PE in order to identify both those who might be safe for
outpatient management and those who would benefit from either systemic
or catheter-directed thrombolytics. In practice there is significant variation
in care, and for emergency medicine providers, recognizing the need for
risk stratification and individualized treatment options is important in
order to prevent short-term mortality and long-term morbidity from PE.
Emergency physicians are uniquely positioned to impact the treatment of
patients diagnosed with PE. As pressure builds to send more patients home
from the ED, observation or clinical-decision units may be well-suited to
arrange safe discharge of patients with small, low-risk PEs. This session will
involve discussion of current treatment controversies for PE and present
important knowledge gaps requiring further study.

DS078: Ethical Dilemmas in International Emergency
Medicine
Friday, May 16 - 9:00 - 10:00 am
1. Identify common ethical dilemmas in international emergency medicine.
2. Describe the ethical concepts applicable to international emergency
medicine. 3. Discuss different approaches to ethical dilemmas. 4. Develop
a practical solution for real-life ethical challenges commonly encountered in
international emergency medicine.
Description: How should emergency physicians approach ethical dilemmas
when working globally? Short-term relief work is more popular than ever
before. Medical mission trips and electives have become an integral part
of medical school and residency curricula. Global health/international
emergency medicine fellowships are becoming increasingly popular. Many
practicing physicians volunteer for relief work, take time off from work,
use their vacation time or become involved with NGOs to provide hands-on
care in resource-limited environments. Despite good will and humanitarian
idealism, ethical problems are routinely encountered. They affect not
only the relief worker (cultural competency, safety, credentialing), but
also local health care workers (cooperation with outside personnel), the
affected patients (appropriate qualifications, consent, language barriers),
their families and the community at large (effects on local health care
infrastructure). This didactic session will start with a short overview of
common ethical dilemmas, and will engage a panel of speakers with unique
qualifications and backgrounds to discuss real-life ethical scenarios.
Through this discussion, the speakers will engage the audience and will
develop practical strategies to appropriately manage such ethical dilemmas
in international emergency medicine.

to support emergency physicians conducting international research. 2.
Friday, May 16 - 10:30 - 11:30 am
to: 1. Apply the public health model to firearm injury prevention. 2. Describe
three ways to influence public opinion and policy about gun-related injuries.
3. Develop three strategies to apply in their own communities for prevention
of firearm-related injuries.
Description: As emergency physicians struggle with the mounting medical
problem of gun violence and its aftermath, we are increasingly called to
step outside of the ED and take a role in the forum of public debate and
policy development. Some emergency physicians (EPs) embrace this role,
others shun it, but the fact is that in many settings we are viewed by our
communities as experts. In this session, EPs who have looked at gun injury in
a larger context will share their research and experience in advocacy. Topics
will include advocating for a coordinated public health approach to gun
violence; how EPs can influence legislation and how legislation can influence
gun violence; and how to navigate the politics of public health advocacy in
such a fraught realm as firearms.

Objectives: At the completion of this session, participants should be able to: 1.
Describe the principles of diagnosis and management of pediatric concussion.
2. Understand the role that emergency medicine physicians can play in initiating
cognitive and physical rest, and recommending appropriate follow-up.
Description: Concussion is a disruption in normal brain function caused by
the impact of biomechanical forces on the head or the body. Approximately
100,000-140,000 children and adolescents present to the emergency
department for concussion each year in the United States. Immediate
recognition of concussion and prompt initiation of treatment in the form
of complete cognitive and physical rest is essential to promote recovery,
and to prevent prolonged physical, cognitive, and emotional symptoms.
While emergency departments frequently serve as the initial point of
entry for the care of pediatric concussion patients, providers may not
have adequate training or tools necessary to provide standardized and
evidence-based care. For this didactic session, the presenters will discuss
the diagnosis, management, and after-care of concussion. A growing body
of basic and clinical research has provided the evidence for standardized
evaluation of concussion and prompt treatment with physical and cognitive
rest. General awareness of concussion and a growing number of state
laws requiring medical clearance before return to activity have resulted
in a significant increase in concussion-related visits in a variety of clinical
settings, including the emergency department. The presenters will provide
updates on the science, policy, and evidenced-based best practices for
pediatric concussion that emergency physicians can readily implement in
their everyday practice. Following the formal didactic presentation, there
will be allotted time for questions and discussion.

DS079: Update on Emergency Department Evaluation and
Management of Pediatric Concussion
Understand Fulbright and Fogarty program support of US physicians
working and conducting research abroad. 3. Understand the application
and review process for various federal funding opportunities that support
global health research. 4. Understand the qualifications of successful grant
proposals and applicants seeking funding to support global health research.
Description: Funding for global health has grown significantly over the past
two decades. In 1990, an estimated US$5.6 billion was spent on development
assistance for global health; this amount had grown to approximately US$27.7
billion as of 2011. While most funding has been earmarked for program
development and implementation, there has also been a steady growth in
research funding. However, much of this research funding has been directed
towards specific disease processes, and little has been focused on emergency
care research. Funding for emergency care research in the global health
context is challenging, as few grants are overtly geared towards emergency
care research. The 2013 AEM Consensus Conference on Global Health
Research Agendas led to the creation of goals to strengthen global emergency
care research funding. These included quantifying the funding opportunities
for global health and emergency care research, improving understanding
of current research priorities, and identifying barriers to current research
funding. In this session, three academic emergency physicians will discuss their
perspectives, experience and insight regarding federal funding streams for
global health. First, Dr. Jeremy Brown, director of the Office of Emergency Care
Research (OECR), will present an overview of federal funding opportunities.
The OECR is housed within the National Institute of General Medical Sciences
and is tasked with coordinating and fostering basic, clinical and translational
research and research training for the emergency setting. The second
panelist, Dr. Robert Hoffman, is a former reviewer of Fulbright applications
and will review the awards, the application process, and the characteristics
of successful applications and applicants. The third panelist, Dr. Adam Levine,
has successfully secured a K-award from the Fogarty International Center and
will review the pearls and pitfalls of a successful NIH application. Time will be
allocated at the end of the session for audience questions.

DS082: Building from Experience: Creating Sustainable
Bridges between Emergency Medicine Researchers and
Invested Public Health Agencies
Friday, May 16 - 10:30 - 11:30 am
Objectives: At conclusion of this session participants should be able to: 1.
Identify key public health issues at the forefront of emergency medicine. 2.
Describe the role of public health agencies in promoting health. 3. Formulate
an agenda for advancing key partnerships between EM and public health.
Description: The ED is called upon to advance public health programs and new
research initiatives. EM-public health shared areas of expertise have resulted
in a variety of partnerships, with funding from key agencies including CDC, HHS,
and state health departments. This didactic will showcase successful cuttingedge innovations between EM investigators and public health. Recognizing the
ever-changing funding environment, it is essential that academic emergency
physicians make connections to respond to continued needs at the EM-public
health interface. This is a two-part session. Part 1: Three invited panelists will
deliver 8-minute presentations from distinct areas describing development
and outcomes associated with one EM-public health collaboration, focusing
on lessons learned and evolving opportunities. Examples will include: an EDbased network for infectious disease surveillance; a multi-center program
to translate priorities into community-based injury research to the ED; and
the role of EM in preparedness capability. Part 2: The organizers will present
a proposed web-based platform for creating permanent bridges to optimize
opportunities for sustaining and growing EM-public health partnerships.
A moderated discussion will be directed towards developing consensusbased recommendations for this platform. Notes: The platform content and
format will be based on advanced literature review and snowball sampling for
the three areas highlighted at the session and will serve as a prototype for
shared EM-public health partnerships, with the platform to be launched and
sustained by the SAEM Public Health Interest Group. Consensus-building will
begin at the annual meeting and with the completion of post-meeting surveys.

DS083: Current Controversies in Post-Cardiac Arrest Care
Friday, May 16 - 10:30 - 11:30 am
1. Compare and contrast emerging non-invasive monitoring available for use
during resuscitation. 2. Discuss the evidence for steroids, neuromuscular
blockade, emergent coronary intervention, and mechanical support in
the peri-arrest period. 3. Understand the ongoing gaps in post-arrest
treatment practices. 4. Describe future research directions within cardiac
resuscitation, including temperature management in the post-arrest period.
Description: Cardiac resuscitation research continues to surge, as
researchers strive to identify factors associated with “good” outcomes after
cardiac arrest. Yet many questions remain regarding applying temperature
management, monitoring the quality of resuscitation, using medication
adjuncts during resuscitation, and augmenting cardiac output with
mechanical support in the peri-arrest period. These are just a few examples
of current controversies in post-cardiac arrest care. Ongoing concerns
regarding emergent coronary intervention in patients who have uncertain
neurologic status limit the availability of this resource to many patients.
The fact that patients who suffer cardiac arrest have a high likelihood of
acute coronary occlusion may suggest we revisit the usefulness of systemic
thrombolytics in patients unable to go to the catheterization laboratory.
This session will discuss the most recent cutting-edge controversies in postarrest care and suggest areas in need of attention for the 2015 guidelines.

Friday, May 16 - 10:30 am - 12:30 pm
Objectives: At the conclusion of this session participants should be able
to: 1. Illustrate how POCUS can assist with the management of pediatric
emergency medicine patients. 2. Understand how to develop proficiency
in the ultrasound techniques for common pediatric conditions. 3. Become
familiar with the evidence surrounding POCUS for each of the indications
and procedures discussed.
Description: Point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) is rapidly expanding into
the field of pediatric emergency medicine. Recent advances in pediatric
ultrasound include applications that aid in the evaluation and management
of common pediatric clinical conditions and in the guidance of invasive
procedures. In this session, we will discuss novel POCUS applications in the
management of common pediatric complaints encountered by emergency
providers. Specifically, the application of POCUS in the management of
the febrile infant, pediatric abdominal pain, musculoskeletal injuries, and
respiratory distress will be presented. In addition, the session will include a
demonstration of ultrasound techniques, a discussion of common pearls and
pitfalls, and a review of the most up-to-date evidence-based approaches
for each POCUS application. At the end of this session, participants should
be equipped with the knowledge to integrate POCUS into clinical decisionmaking and the management of pediatric patients.

question; creating a realistic research timeline; navigating the IRB and other
Friday, May 16 - 11:30 am - 12:30 pm
1. Describe the role of research director in a variety of institutional settings.
2. Compare and contrast the various descriptions of the research director.
3. List obstacles they may face while developing/maintaining a research
program at their own institution.
Description: While the title of “director of clinical research” is commonly
seen in emergency medicine programs, the role and job description vary
based upon the clinical and academic setting, resources, and institutional
culture, and success in this role is dependent on these various factors. Some
research directors primarily mentor resident scholarly activity, while others
manage faculty. Often, a young faculty member is thrust into this role based
upon early research successes. Others may inherit the role based upon a
department’s needs and staffing. Lastly, some may develop into the role
and have had the chance to be groomed for success. This session is intended
to provide attendees with information that will help them to decide on
pursuing the role of research director, and, when in the role, be successful.
During this session, a panel composed of current research directors will
address the following topics: 1. Description of their current setting and main
roles. 2. Major challenges in their role. 3. Top 5 tips for success. After each
topic presentation, there will be 3-4 minutes for questions and answers
from the audience. After the conclusion of all topics, the remaining time will
be used for lessons learned and/or questions. The panelists will come from
the following settings: 1.A university ED with a well-established EM research
program with significant extramural funding. 2. A university ED with a midlevel clinical research program. 3. A university ED with a brand-new research
program. 4. A community hospital ED with a medical school affiliation.

to: 1. List the advantages of a proactive, comprehensive approach to crises.
2. Describe innovative ways to reconcile demands for accountability with
requirements for learning and considerations of compassion and justice.
3. Describe a comprehensive approach to organizational learning about
hazards in care.
Description: You’ve just heard that a pregnant woman discharged from
your ED after a low-impact auto accident delivered a stillborn secondary
to an abruption some hours after discharge. The EMR notes good fetal
heart tones and fetal movements, but an addendum notes FHT of 190,
which you failed to see. Or… you’ve just heard that an elderly patient you
treated for an eyebrow laceration returned with endophthalmitis, leading
to enucleation due to unrecognized rupture of the globe. The chart is
missing visual acuity. In both these cases, state agencies are pressing for
investigation and punishment. Now what? The emergency department is a
high-risk environment for adverse outcomes – some inevitable, and some
preventable. This interactive panel discussion will provide examples of
how such tragedies can be better managed, to support the patients and
families (first victims), the caregivers involved (second victims), and to
help the care-delivery organization improve (third victims). Panelists will
use case examples from their own work in four important activities: (1)
explanation and apology to the patient and family, along with medical, social
and economic assistance as needed; (2) support for the “second victim,” the
medical staff involved in the error; (3) a technically sophisticated analysis,
looking for hazards in the system of care that were revealed in the accident;
and (4) a means for balancing calls for greater transparency and external
accountability with the psychological safety needed for learning and justice.

DS089: Getting Your Qualitative Emergency Medicine
Research Published
Friday, May 16 - 11:30 am - 12:30 pm
1. Select appropriate and efficient analysis techniques for qualitative data.
2. Be familiar with frequent journal reviewer concerns regarding qualitative
manuscripts and strategies to address these.3. Be familiar with several
alternate dissemination techniques for qualitative research.
Description: Qualitative research seeks to develop concepts to better
understand complex social phenomena in natural settings. Qualitative
study designs commonly use in-depth interviews, focus groups, and field
observation. Qualitative methods are particularly relevant in emergency
medicine, where research questions often have little existing research
background and outcomes are difficult to measure. Yet investigators face
83
considerable challenges publishing such research. This session will enhance
participants’ capacity to appropriately design, analyze and disseminate
qualitative research. Session faculty are emergency physician researchers
with experience in qualitative methods and will use their projects to
highlight concepts. Dr. Grudzen will discuss how to build an analytic team
when coding transcripts from semi-structured interviews and focus groups,
and how to effectively publish results in the peer-review literature. She
will use examples from her work regarding palliative care. Dr. Rhodes will
discuss use of a tentative thematic framework to conduct content analyses
with qualitative data and selectively code for broad themes, and will provide
examples of published qualitative methods sections. She will use examples
from work on ED provider-patient communication around psychosocial
issues and access to care. Dr. Schuur will discuss how he used interviews
and focus groups to identify successful infection-prevention strategies in
EDs. He will discuss how to prepare a qualitative manuscript for peer review
and will review frequent journal reviewer concerns regarding qualitative
manuscripts, offering tips to avoid and answer these. A question-andanswer session will follow.

to: 1. Explain the role of enterovirus testing in the febrile young infant. 2.
Describe the epidemiology of neonatal herpes simplex virus infection
and when to test and initiate acyclovir therapy. 3. Describe the role of
immune responses in pathogen identification. 4. Understand rudiments of

Description: The febrile young infant aged 0-60 days is commonly encountered
in the emergency department. These infants are at high risk for serious bacterial
infection and often undergo a full sepsis evaluation. Enterovirus is a common
pathogen that causes febrile illness in young infants. Despite availability of
rapid enterovirus PCR testing, there is wide variability in enterovirus testing
in febrile infants, even with recent studies demonstrating benefits of routine
testing. Neonatal herpes simplex virus (HSV) is a life-threatening infection
that is difficult to diagnose clinically, and therefore controversy exists as to
which neonates should be tested and empirically treated. Importantly, novel
diagnostic methods including biosignatures (RNA expression analysis) are
being investigated to improve identification of fever-inducing pathogens.
In this session, the most recent advances in the management of the febrile
young infant will be presented. The presenters will discuss the epidemiology of
enterovirus and neonatal HSV infections, and will review the evidence-based
approach to viral testing in the febrile young infant, including an upcoming
multicenter study. Additionally, novel approaches to diagnosis, including
transcriptional biosignatures, will be discussed. Following a brief introduction
to novel diagnostic techniques currently being used in the evaluation of a
young febrile infant, a more detailed description of one of the more promising
technologies will be presented. RNA expression analysis is the study of the
host response to the presence of a pathogen. Analysis of unique host response
patterns can potentially lead to identification of fever etiology, thus obviating
the reliance on sub-optimal reference standards, including cultures.

DS091: Delivering Public Health through EMS
Saturday, May 17 - 8:00 - 9:00 am
1. Describe the financial and legal barriers impeding prior EMS involvement
in public health. 2. Describe existing best practices of EMS-based public
health activities. 3. Describe the existing opportunities to expand the role
of EMS in public health.
Description: Emergency medical services (EMS) systems predominantly
focus on transportation. However, EMS agencies frequently interact with
our most vulnerable patients, both before and after acute injuries or illness.
There are many instances when EMS might be well positioned to smooth
the transition of care or perform public health outreach to disadvantaged
or vulnerable populations. The EMS community has been interested for a
long time in moving beyond basic transportation services toward becoming
a more flexible, patient-centered, clinically integrated mobile health
service, working with partners in the medical and public health communities
to support population health. However, few innovations have been put
into general practice, largely because of legal constraints and financial
incentives that favor the status quo. Given macro trends in health care policy
toward greater coordination of care and population health management,
there may be new opportunities available for EMS (out-of-hospital care)
systems to expand their role beyond emergency care delivery into such
public health areas as fall and injury prevention, personal preparedness,
public vaccination programs and more. This session will feature three
leaders in the EMS community who will update us on the latest public health
innovations in the practice of EMS.

DS092: Do-it-yourself Simulation: Cutting-edge
Saturday, May 17 - 8:00 - 9:00 am
to: 1. Discuss the costs associated with establishing simulation in a resident
curriculum. 2. Describe the literature on DIY simulation and demonstrate a
variety of models: vascular access, soft-tissue infection, pericardiocentesis,
among others. 3. Take home various “recipes” for simulators so they may try
them on their own.
Description: There are many different medical simulators commercially
available; however, they come at a significant cost. Most educators have
limited budgets and relatively high operating costs. The goal of this didactic
is to discuss the costs associated with simulation, from a basic to an
advanced level, and to give educators the resources to make quality lowcost simulators for physician education.

DS093: How to Effectively Supervise and Teach Residents:
Entrustment and Autonomy
Saturday, May 17 - 8:00 - 9:00 am
to: 1. Describe the factors affecting autonomy. 2. Be prepared to navigate
the barriers to entrustment. 3. Appropriately facilitate resident autonomy
and grant trainee-suitable entrustment of patient care to enhance resident
education.
Description: The goal of residency is to train residents to manage patients
independently but also safely as they learn. The role of the attending
varies between supervision and allowing autonomy. This concept has been
termed entrustment. Entrustment is essential for implementation of the
milestones. As residents progress along the milestones, the role of the
supervising physician is to grant incremental responsibilities of patient
care to residents, with concurrent reduction in clinical oversight. This
entrustment of professional activities to each resident varies based on
multiple elements, including attending factors (characteristics, experience,
confidence), resident factors (proficiency, level of training, characteristics),
patient factors (severity of illness, complexity) and environment (volume,
service expectations). In this session, we will discuss use our understanding
of how leveraging entrustment can create an effective learning
environment. We will explore resident perceptions of autonomy, the learning
environment, and strategies for faculty to enhance resident learning within
this framework. This workshop was presented at SAEM in 2013 to very good
reviews. We have incorporated feedback received from that session into
the design of this didactic. Additional small-group facilitators include Felix
Ankel, MD; Emily Mills, MD; and Josh Glazer, MD.

DS094: Law, Ethics, and Truth: Caring for LGBT Patients in
the ED. Introduction to a Module from a Novel Curriculum
on LGBT Health in Emergency Medicine
Saturday, May 17 - 8:00 - 10:00 am
Objectives: At the end of this session, participants should be able to: 1.
Locate the new resource curriculum on LGBT health. 2. Discuss challenges,
resources, and future needs regarding legal and ethical concerns for LGBT
patients. 3. Describe components of federal and state laws that impact
LGBT patient care, access to care, advanced directives, and visitation. 4.
Identify biases that serve as barriers to effective communication and can
adversely affect care of LGBT patients.
Description: Original research presented last year at SAEM on behalf
of ADIEM demonstrated a need for and desire on the part of program
directors for LGBT health care-related residency education. The LGBT
subcommittee of ADIEM has developed a module-based curriculum for
use by EM residency programs. After a brief introduction and overview
of the curriculum components, an individual module that focuses on the
legal and ethical challenges in the physician-patient relationship for LGBT
patients will be explored. Participants in this session will be divided into
small groups to consider case-based scenarios that will facilitate discussion
between EM physicians and their patients. Specifically, the dilemmas,
management, and resources available to successfully navigate these legal
and ethical challenges in the physician-patient interaction will be examined.
At the conclusion of the session, we will bring the groups back together for a
debriefing to summarize challenges, solutions, and future needs.

1. Describe the Just Culture and its application to improving patient safety
within a residency. 2. Apply important concepts about patient safety to
improve ED culture and enhance resident participation in safety practices.
Description: RATIONALE: Patient safety is increasingly important, but
residents and students may not understand the role they can play in
delivering safe care and improving the environment of care. CONTENT:
This workshop should help participants translate the evidence related
to safety culture into (1) methods to enhance and engage resident
participation in patient safety; (2) methods to improve success in meeting
core competencies related to patient safety. FORMAT: The Just Culture
will be briefly presented; then, in small groups, the participants will plan
learning or assessment exercises for their own setting. The workshop will
be highly interactive, requiring participants to both understand patient
safety concepts and apply them to their teaching, learning and assessment
practices. The workshop will incorporate large- and small-group exercises
to understand the concepts and develop ways to improve each participant’s
ability to incorporate key concepts of culture and safety into ED practice.
INTENDED OUTCOMES: Participants should be able to understand the Just
Culture and its application to patient safety, and incorporate the important
concepts about patient safety into teaching practice and the ED clinical
setting.

Saturday, May 17 - 9:00 - 10:00 am
1. Describe the current status of emergency informatics research. 2. Discuss
the design of several informatics research projects that could be performed
by non-technical researchers.
Description: Clinical Informatics is a new official subspecialty available
to emergency medicine diplomates and is an exciting area of medicine
experiencing rapid change. We are seeing government mandates for
electronic health records in most of the developed world. Patients expect
their records to be complete and accessible. Physicians expect the
systems to be usable for decision support and to be helpful and timely.
The transformation of health information into electronic formats (EHR)
is outpacing the research in the field. Many informatics researchers
focus on technical aspects; however, we will focus on areas that do not
require significant technical knowledge. This research is achievable by
any emergency physicians or residents. More must be done to assure that
changes being made truly help promote safe and effective patient care. We
will focus on several key areas of informatics research that directly relate
to emergency medicine: workflow analysis, EHR usability, alerting/clinical
decision support, and pre-hospital informatics. This session will consist
of (1) four panel members presenting short literature reviews of existing
areas of emergency informatics research, together with future directions,
followed by (2) a panel discussion regarding the generation of research ideas
and suggestions for study design, accompanied by practical suggestions.

DS096: Bringing Patient Safety Into Your Program
Saturday, May 17 - 9:00 - 10:00 am
96
Saturday, May 17 - 9:00 - 10:00 am
to: 1. Describe three common approaches to genomics, metabolomics, and
proteomics research studies. 2. Identify areas of emergency medicine that
are currently or soon will be the subject of this area of research. 3. Articulate
potential clinical applications of -omics.
Description: The -omics revolution promises improved care through
genome-specific diagnostics and personalized treatments. These methods
include genomics (genome-wide association studies, gene expression
analysis, whole transcriptome sequencing), proteomics, and metabolomics.
These methods are increasingly being applied to acute care conditions for
identification of specific conditions requiring time-sensitive treatments,
treatment selection and prognosis. Further, they represent a new
paradigm in the development of standard laboratory-based diagnostics
and treatments. NIH leaders have identified -omics research as one of the
natural fits for emergency medicine research within the federal research
mission. In this didactic, Ephraim Tsallick will provide a broad overview
of these methods and how they work. He will provide a brief description
of his own work with infectious disease diagnostics. Andrew Monte will
then describe the applications, and limitations, of -omics in personalized
medicine, using his own genomic and metabolomic work with opioids and
altitude-induced hypoxia as examples. Finally, Charles Cairns will outline an
agenda for how these methods will fit in the future of EM care.

Saturday, May 17 - 10:00 - 11:00 am
DS100: What Millennials Want: Reshaping Your Residency
for a New Generation of Learners in the NAS
1. Discuss barriers to effective clinical teaching. 2. Identify characteristics of
ideal clinical teachers. 3. Describe principles of learner-centered education.
4. Practice a variety of evidence-based teaching models in small groups. 5.
Incorporate learner-centered teaching techniques into clinical practice.
Description: When working in a chaotic emergency department with
competing priorities, clinical teaching may be sacrificed for the sake of
patient flow and throughput. An organized, efficient approach to clinical
teaching based upon constructivist educational theory helps focus the
teaching on what the learner needs at that moment, incorporates regular
feedback, keeps the department on track, and prevents over-teaching.
In this interactive workshop, participants will be engaged in a discussion
about barriers to teaching in the emergency department, learn about
characteristics of teachers appreciated by learners, explore basic
principles of learner-centered education, practice a number of teaching
models such as OMP, SNAPPS, ED STAT! and ultimately should be able to
take these skills and apply them to their interactions with learners in the
clinical setting. Videos illustrating examples of effective and ineffective
teaching encounters will serve as an adjunct to the discussion.
At the end of this workshop, participants should be prepared to seize
the teachable moment and provide timely and learner-centered clinical
educational encounters.

DS102: Watch a Doctor Get Sued:
A Live Medicolegal Simulation
Saturday, May 17 - 10:00 am - 12:00 pm
Objectives: At the conclusion of this session, participants should be able to:
1. Vicariously experience the stress of a physician being sued and deposed.
2. Witness an example of a newcomer being deposed. 3. Witness an example
of an expert being deposed. 4. Participate in a question-and-answer period
with practicing attorneys during the debriefing of the simulations. 5. Walk
away from this simulation feeling a little bit more prepared for the potential
of being deposed.
Description: Being sued is probably one of the most stressful life events
that an emergency physician can experience, and the probability is high
that the physician will be sued during her career. This live simulation
demonstration will allow the audience to vicariously experience a realistic
medical malpractice deposition with practicing attorneys. Examples will
include depositions of a chief resident a long-tenured department chair.
Both will be debriefed by the attorneys, with time for audience questions
and answers. What to look out for, how to react, and what’s important will
be highlighted by the attorneys and will be contrasted with emergency
physician perceptions of the same.

Objectives: At the end of the session the participant should be able to:
1. Describe the positive and negative attributes and generational values
of the Millennial generation, as well as how these values and attributes
impact the success of residency programs. 2. Discuss why professionalism
and communication issues arise frequently with Millennials and bring
back specific ideas to develop behavioral expectations. 3. Implement
curriculum changes that increase success of the learner without changing
the underlying content, including interprofessional simulation, role-playing,
and the formal use of social media.
Description: This session will focus on using knowledge of Millennial
generation attributes and value systems to further refine multiple aspects
of residency program management, including recruitment, orientation,
didactic curriculum, and integration of non-traditional educational
methods. The session will begin with a detailed introduction to Millennial
attributes, both positive and negative, focusing on how these values impact
their education, in both the clinical and the nonclinical realm. This will be
followed by a review of specific methods of incorporating Millennial ideals
into the residency, beginning with more effective recruitment strategies.
The session will conclude with a discussion of perceived differences in
professionalism and communication skills and how to develop expectations
that will be met by younger generations via expectation development, use
of reflection, and leadership development.

DS101: Taking Advantage of the Teachable Moment:
A Workshop for Efficient, Learner-Centered
Clinical Teaching
MAY 13-17, 2014
to: 1. Illustrate those aspects of a department and institution that make it an
appropriate host for a fellowship. 2. Describe how to construct a fellowship
curriculum incorporating Milestones and clearly defined objectives. 3.
Identify commonly encountered obstacles and pitfalls in starting a nonACGME-accredited fellowship.
Description: This didactic will be a panel discussion focused on giving the
audience the fundamental constructs for developing an excellent (nonACGME-accredited) fellowship. Emergency medicine residency graduates
have multiple fellowship opportunities available to them, only the minority
of which are ACGME-accredited. Ensuring that fellowships are optimally
designed and executed benefits both the fellows and the departments
hosting the fellowships. Remarkably, however, for non-ACGME fellowships,
there is little to no standardization or clarity regarding what the learner
should expect for his or her investment of time and energy. What defines
a non-ACGME-approved fellowship? How does a department determine if
it is ready to start a fellowship in an area of expertise? What are possible
funding sources? What educational opportunities should be made available
to the fellows? How do we ensure a rich educational environment without
ACGME guidelines and credentialing? Is there a role for Milestones and
clear learning objectives even without ACGME oversight, and how would
this be created? What resources should be made available to the fellowship
director by the department? A panel of experienced directors of fellowships
including administration, global health, and geriatric emergency medicine
will discuss these topics as they describe how they started and run their
renowned fellowships.
