Staff education on proper blood pressure measurement technique and recording is a focus of recent hypertension guidelines. (1) Compared with other methods, unattended Automated Office Blood Pressure (AOBP) devices reduce measurement errors and improve BP Management. (2,3,4) The addition of AOBP to staff education needs to be assessed objectively.  \u0000  \u0000Objectives  \u0000To determine the effect of staff education on proper BP measurement and addition of AOBP devices on BP targets in an academic general internal medicine clinic.    \u0000  \u0000Methods  \u0000Education was provided to the medical staff on how to appropriately check BP in general and on the proper use of the AOBP devices. Education was repeated in several intervals to ensure consistency in practice. Six AOBP Hillrom (Welch Allyn spot 4400) devices were deployed for the clinic. Devices allowed for three automated readings 1 minute apart eliminating the first reading and keeping the other 2 readings.  Staff were instructed to document two blood pressure readings into the electronic medical record. The number of patients who completed two BP measurements documented in the EMR over time.   \u0000  \u0000Results  \u0000Our results showed timely education with refreshers, increased BP measurement protocol and improvement in BP recordings. Adherence to 2 BP checks increased from 40% in Dec-21 to 99% Jun-23. The percentage of patients with improved BP increased from 40% to 76% after staff education and addition of AOBP.    \u0000  \u0000Conclusion  \u0000Timely education of medical staff and the addition of AOBP could increase the accuracy of in-office BP measurement.  \u0000  \u0000Key word: Internal medicine  \u0000Type of submission: Abstract  ","PeriodicalId":220681,"journal":{"name":"Translation: The University of Toledo Journal of Medical Sciences","volume":"2 15","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139001198","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Certain autoimmune diseases (AID) and their treatments may increase the risk of cancer. Studies report conflicting data about the effects of AID on the risk of GBM. Objectives: To evaluate the effect of AID on the risk of GBM. Methods: Discharge data for 2020 Nationwide Inpatient Sample, Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project (HCUP), which approximates a 20% stratified sample of all US hospitalizations, were analyzed. Cases of AID and GBM were identified using the ICD10 codes. Autoimmune comorbidity index was used for the combined autoimmune diseases. Weighted Multivariable logistic regression was used to examine the association between GBM and AID and adjusting for sociodemographic characteristics. Adjusted odds ratios (AOR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated using SAS survey logistic regression procedure. Results: Among 6,471,165 admissions, 178,254 patients were identified with AID.
