One of our core investigators, Stephanie Doupnik, MD, MSHP focuses on improving outcomes for children who have concurrent physical and mental health conditions, particularly during hospitalization. She recently received a K award from National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) to spend the next 5 years focused on this work!

Another of our core investigators, Naveen Muthu is a hospitalist and expert in cognitive informatics, with a focus on the application of cognitive engineering methods to improve clinical decision support representations and augment medical decision-making - very cool stuff!

Congrats to Chris Landrigan and the @IPASSHANDOFF team!

OK, OK, Naveen Muthu blew my cover, but yes, this is Chris Bonafide, MD, MSCE (he/him) tweeting from the helm of PHM lab at CHOP, also a core investigator for the group. My work is focused on physiologic monitoring, deimplementation, and sometimes both. #EMOstudy

Gotta love papers like this one from Boston Children's EM group with a simple but important message: Trust negative chest x-rays. Their negative predictive value for pneumonia is 98.8%. pediatrics.aappublications.org/content/142/3/…

Why is is so damn hard to do good science? This extraordinary, thoughtful assessment brings in behavioral economics, repeating classic experiments but now in biomedicine, exposing biases eneuro.org/content/early/… SfN Journals by Ray Dingledine Emory University open-access



Newborn falls in the hospital are rare, but still happen. Should be "never events." Nice 13-year description by Jaspreet from Yale New Haven Hosp in AAP Journals hosppeds.aappublications.org/content/8/9/509

Sonya Tang Girdwood 鄧 智佳, MD, PhD Q4 (cont'd) When considering sepsis screening mandates, MUST measure downstream effects of "false positives" in terms of impact on admissions, ICU xfer, antibiotic use, blood cultures obtained (contaminants!), fluids administered, etc. #PHMFellowJC
