The BALM (brilliance, attitude, leadership, and materials) framework is a novel model for adjudicating clinical excellence. There are a few models and frameworks for evaluating clinical excellence, but each has its flaws and does not consider the peculiarities of economically-challenged regions such as sub-Saharan Africa. Coincidentally, such low-resource areas have an urgent need for a framework to assess clinical excellence because of their low health-related indices. The five-step model of professional excellence is a well-recognised tool and was the model upon which the BALM framework was built. So, the BALM framework determines to what extent, using the five-step stages of novice, advanced beginner, competent, proficient, and expert, a clinician has achieved in each of the four critical domains, namely brilliance, attitude, leadership, and materials. Therefore, a clinician, who strives for excellence, aims to be an “expert” in each of the domains of the BALM framework. The framework is concise, practical, easy to use, and multidimensional, although it still needs to be applied widely to assess its reproducibility.","PeriodicalId":516872,"journal":{"name":"Academic Medicine & Surgery","volume":" 100","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141000422","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}

This may not seem relevant but when added over a lifetime career in tennis these numbers become significant. This is why it is important to be aware of the most common tennis injuries, as well as the best prevention and treatment methods for each injury. This literature review will discuss four of the most common tennis injuries, which include tennis elbow, tendonitis, shoulder bursitis, and a rotator cuff tear. This review covers how to prevent and treat them, with a focus on the elbow and shoulder as two of the most common places for injury in tennis players.","PeriodicalId":516872,"journal":{"name":"Academic Medicine & Surgery","volume":"38 12","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141043296","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}

There have been many different modifications and improvements to ultrasound machines over the years making technology increasingly more valuable.

They aimed to determine whether the SI and MSI correlated with hyperlactatemia, which is considered a marker of sepsis severity and a predictor of poor prognosis. This was a prospective cohort study including all adult patients transported by our county EMS system as per our system’s prehospital sepsis protocol. The study was approved by our medical school’s institutional review board. The study cohort included 1,426 patients. Of these, 969 had an elevated SI. The initial SI ranged from 0.260 to 2.840, with a median of 1.11, and 68% had a “positive” SI (>1.0). The initial MSI ranged from 0.336 to 3.727, with a median of 1.465, and 74% of the cohort had a “positive” MSI (<0.7, or >1.3). Of the patients, 92% had repeat vitals during transport, and the second SI was elevated in 41%. The study found that patients with an elevated SI were significantly more likely to have an elevated lactate (P=0.0309) and be admitted for sepsis (P<0.0001, 95% CI 0.1038 to 0.2714). Patients with an elevated serum lactate were significantly more likely to die during their hospital stay (P<0.0001, 95% CI 0.1503 to 0.3210) with an odds ratio of 2.38 (95% CI 1.59 to 3.56). The study data suggest that an elevated shock index >1 can be used as a surrogate marker for elevated lactate, which in turn correlates with sepsis and poor outcomes following sepsis.","PeriodicalId":516872,"journal":{"name":"Academic Medicine &amp; Surgery","volume":"48 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140414140","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}

We aimed to examine the effect of a dedicated emergency department (ED) nerve block team (NBT) on the number and types of ultrasound-guided nerve blocks administered in the ED. We performed a retrospective chart review comparing the nine-month period before and after the creation of a dedicated NBT. This was performed at a tertiary care urban hospital that is a level 1 trauma center. We assessed and compared the number and types of nerve blocks performed, level of learners who performed nerve blocks, and time of ED arrival to disposition, before and after implementation of the NBT. The utilization of nerve blocks rose from 79 prior to the establishment of the NBT to 108 following its creation, representing a 36.7% increase. The average duration of stay in the emergency department decreased by 51 minutes, though this change did not demonstrate statistical significance (P=0.1237). There was an increased variety in the types of nerve blocks performed. The introduction of a NBT led to a rise in both the quantity and diversity of nerve blocks conducted in the ED.","PeriodicalId":516872,"journal":{"name":"Academic Medicine &amp; Surgery","volume":"1 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140452938","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}
