Mid-Atlantic Cardiac Anesthesiology – Leveraging Virtual Technology to Advance Continuing Medical Education
The coronavirus disease pandemic has radically and permanently disrupted the landscape of graduate medical education.1 All aspects of residency and fellowship training have been affected – clinical volume, patient acuity, research, physician wellness, and medical education.2–6 Curricula have been forcibly altered, in order to adapt to the clinical surges of the disease while maintaining the integrity of trainee education. This stressful and challenging situation has forced educa tors to innovate and rethink traditional educational paradigms.

Meet the Medical Students Becoming Doctors in the Middle of a Pandemic
Everything hit Nick Martin when he picked up the phone. Martin, 26, had expected to start a family medicine residency at the University of Massachusetts Medical Center this summer, after graduating from the University of Massachusetts Medical School (UMMS). But with a surge of COVID-19 cases expected to hit the state in the coming weeks, the school allowed Martin and his classmates to graduate on March 31, so they could begin working as first-year residents in the UMass hospital system. That’s how Martin found himself on April 8 in a white coat, calling into a coronavirus patient’s room and trying on a new name...

The Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on the Education and Wellness of U.S. Pediatric Anesthesiology Fellows.
Abstract The global coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic caused statewide shutdowns of elective surgical activities in March and April of 2020 forcing graduate medical education program directors and their trainees in the United States to quickly adapt to new rules and circumstances. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of the current pandemic on pediatric anesthesiology fellow education and wellness nationally in order to guide creation of optimal support systems for fellows during the ongoing pandemic. A total of 75 out of 184 pediatric anesthesiology fellows (41%) responded to the survey. M...

COVID Bill to End ‘Surprise’ Medical Bills
By RICARDO ALONSO-ZALDIVAR Associated Press WASHINGTON (AP) — People with private health insurance will see the nasty shock of “surprise” medical bills virtually gone, thanks to the coronavirus compromise passed by Congress. The charges that can run from hundreds to tens of thousands of dollars come from doctors and hospitals that are outside the network of a patient’s health insurance plan. It’s estimated that about 1 in 5 emergency visits and 1 in 6 inpatient admissions will trigger a surprise bill. Although lawmakers of both parties long agreed that the practice amounted to abusive billing, a ...

A Critical Review from the Perspective of 2 Years Thereafter of the Effectiveness of Revolutionary Changes in a Gastroenterology Division at a Medical School Teaching Hospital due to the Coronavirus Disease-2019 Pandemic
Conclusion: Profound and pervasive GI divisional changes maximized clinical resou rces devoted to COVID-19-infected patients and minimized risks of transmitting infection. Academic changes were degraded by massive cost-cutting while offering institutions to about 100 hospital systems and eventually “selling” institutions to Spectrum Health, without faculty input.

COVID-19 safety: aerosol-generating procedures and cardiothoracic surgery and anaesthesia - Australian and New Zealand consensus statement.
Authors: Irons JF, Pavey W, Bennetts JS, Granger E, Tutungi E, Almeida A Abstract INTRODUCTION: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a contagious disease that is caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Health care workers are at risk of infection from aerosolisation of respiratory secretions, droplet and contact spread. There are a number of procedures that represent a high risk of aerosol generation during cardiothoracic surgery. It is important that adequate training, equipment and procedures are in place to reduce that risk. RECOMMENDATIONS: We provide a number of key re...

Chances and challenges of increasing digitalization of teaching in the discipline anesthesiology from the perspective of students
CONCLUSION: This study highlights several opportunities and challenges associated with digital teaching. The availability of prerecorded lectures at any time and place seems to facilitate access and increases student motivation. It also promotes individualization of student learning. Main disadvantages are the lack of communication with teachers and other students as well as the missing opportunity to reinforce the theoretical knowledge through application in practical courses, which, however, are essential for medical education. Therefore, a possible solution in the future could be the introduction of the "inverted classr...
