Infant Sleep Behavior Practices and Knowledge of Fathers
Sudden unexpected infant death (SUID) is a term for any sudden death occurring under 1 year of age. SIDS (sudden infant death syndrome) is the sudden death of an infant that is unexplained after an investigation and often occurs during sleep or in the infant sleep area. In Indianapolis, 130 infants died in 2022 before their first birthday, and 17% were from SUIDs. Fathers’ understanding of infant safe-sleep knowledge and behaviors is mostly unkno…
Leveraging social media to increase lung cancer screening awareness, knowledge and uptake among high-risk populations (The INSPIRE-Lung Study)
The trial is registered at clinicaltrials.gov (#NCT05824273)
Delivering Clinical Pastoral Education (CPE) Remotely
Many Clinical Pastoral Education programs pivoted to remote delivery during the COVID-19 pandemic. Our survey explored educators’ preparedness, self-efficacy, and views regarding remote Clinical Pastoral Education. Few respondents were either very (14.2%) or not at all (16.5%) prepared. Most were confident facilitating remote learning (69.8%–88.5%), believing remote Clinical Pastoral Education can achieve outcomes equivalent to in-person (59.1%).…
Covid-19 and Clinical Pastoral Education
Clinical Pastoral Education (CPE) programs faced extraordinary challenges during the COVID-19 pandemic. We examined how ACPE-certified educators responded to maintain program delivery. Survey results ( n = 210) suggested a substantial and abrupt increase in remote delivery for CPE instruction and supervised clinical practice, primarily driven by those previously fully in-person. Respondents reported abrupt changes impacted 1152 students. Particip…
Health Care System Distrust, Race, and Surrogate Decision-Making Regarding Code Status
Purpose: Previous studies have shown that black patients are more likely to prefer life-sustaining treatments such as cardiopulmonary resuscitation at end-of-life (EOL) compared to non-Hispanic white patients. Given prior racial disparities in health care, distrust has been proposed to explain these preferences. As many hospitalized older adults require surrogates to make medical decisions, we explored surrogates' code status preferences and the …
High Moral Distress in Clinicians Involved in the Care of Undocumented Immigrants Needing Dialysis in the United States
Purpose: To understand clinicians' perspectives on dialysis care of undocumented immigrants. Methods: A 21-item Internet-based survey using Survey Monkey ® was sent to 765 physicians and nurses at a safety-net hospital located in Indianapolis, IN. Moral distress thermometer score was used to assess moral distress (MD). Participants were asked to rate their MD regarding five ethically challenging clinical situations: (1) frail patients with multip…
The Chaplain Family Project
In the Intensive Care Unit (ICU), family members experience psychological and spiritual distress as they cope with fear, grief, and medical decisions for patients. The study team developed and pilot tested a semistructured chaplain intervention that included proactive contact and spiritual assessment, interventions, and documentation. An interdisciplinary team developed the intervention, the Spiritual Care Assessment and Intervention (SCAI) Frame…
(Dis)Incentivizing Patient Satisfaction Metrics
Background: Patient satisfaction surveys as a metric for quality-based financial incentives carry a risk of bias toward women and underrepresented physicians. Previous assessments in our department of medicine found that most women faculty were rated in the bottom quartile of patient satisfaction scores, whereas analysis of scores for underrepresented physicians had not been performed. To investigate, we compared patient satisfaction scores and r…
Nontraditional Surrogate Decision Makers for Hospitalized Older Adults
BACKGROUND: Without advanced preparation of legal documents, state law determines who may serve as a surrogate decision maker for patients in hospitals. OBJECTIVES: To examine the relationship characteristics associated with traditional versus nontraditional health care surrogates who are making medical decisions for patients in hospitals. RESEARCH DESIGN: Secondary analysis of a baseline cross-sectional survey of a larger prospective observation…
