Abstract
Handoffs involve the transfer of patient information and responsibility for care between health care professionals. The purpose of the current scoping review was (1) to describe handoff studies with education as part of the intervention and (2) to explore the role of handoff educational interventions in sustaining handoff improvements. This scoping review utilized previously published systematic reviews and a structured, systematic search of 5 databases (January 2006-June 2020). Articles were identified, and data were extracted by pairs of trained, independent reviewers. The search identified 74 relevant articles, most published after 2015 (70%) and conducted in the United States (76%). Almost all of the studies (99%) utilized instruction, 66% utilized skills practice, 89% utilized a memory aid, and 43% utilized reinforcement. However, few studies reported using education theory or followed accepted tenets of curriculum development. There has been a substantial increase over time in reporting actual handoff behavior change (17%-68%) and a smaller but important increase in reporting patient outcomes (11%-18%). Thirty-five percent of studies (26/74) had follow-up for 6 months or more. Twelve studies met the criteria for sustained change, which were follow-up for 6 months or more and achieving statistically significant improvements in either handoff skills/processes or patient outcomes at the conclusion of the study. All 12 studies with sustained change used multi-modal educational interventions, and reinforcement was more likely to be used in these studies than all others (75%, 9/12) versus (37%, 23/62), P = 0.015. Future handoff intervention efforts that include education should use education theory to guide development and include needs assessment and goals and measurable objectives. Educational interventions should be multi-modal and include reinforcement. Future research studies should measure actual handoff behavior change (skills/process) and patient outcomes, include follow-up for more than 6 months, and use education reporting guidelines.

Zhu X. COMPARISON OF HIGH-LEVEL ATHLETE TRAINING BETWEEN CHINESE AND AMERICAN UNIVERSITIES BASED ON THE INTERNET OF THINGS. REV BRAS MED ESPORTE 2021.

Abstract
ABSTRACT In order to improve the training quality of high-level athletes in Chinese and American universities, an athlete’s sports information transmission model is designed based on the Internet of Things (IoT). The communication protocol between Ayla module and the main motion control board, Ayla module and client APP or cloud platform, and APP and cloud platform in the system is designed in detail. For the Ayla module, the most important hardware part of the system, the internal composition and software design are described. In the mobile phone client part that is closely related to the user, the MVC architecture is adopted, the singleton and agent design patterns are utilized, and the functional design of each part is elaborated, including APP interface animation, data transmission format, network communication, and database storage. The research results show that the system of this study can handle most of the athlete training information, and the prediction accuracy exceeds the traditional algorithm. This research study is of great significance for improving the training efficiency of high-level athletes and further expanding the scope of application of the IoT.

Frequency, Timing, and Types of Medication Ordering Errors Made by Residents in the Electronic Medical Records Era. South Med J 2019; 112:25-31.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To describe associations between resident level of training, timing of medication orders, and the types of inpatient medication ordering errors made by internal medicine residents. METHODS This study reviewed all inpatient medication orders placed by internal medicine residents at a tertiary care academic medical center from July 2011 to June 2015. Medication order errors were measured by pharmacists' reporting of an error via the electronic medical record during real-time surveillance of orders. Multivariable regression models were constructed to assess associations between resident training level (postgraduate year [PGY]), medication order timing (time of day and month of year), and rates of medication ordering errors. RESULTS Of 1,772,462 medication orders placed by 335 residents, 68,545 (3.9%) triggered a pharmacist intervention in the electronic medical record. Overall and for each PGY level, renal dose monitoring/adjustment was the most common order error (40%). Ordering errors were less frequent during the night and transition periods versus daytime (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 0.93, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.91-0.96, and aOR 0.93, 95% CI 0.90-0.95, respectively). Errors were more common in July and August compared with other months (aOR 1.05, 95% CI 1.01-1.09). Compared with PGY2 residents, both PGY1 (aOR 1.06, 95% CI 1.03-1.10), and PGY3 residents (aOR 1.07, 95% CI, 1.03-1.10) were more likely to make medication ordering errors. Throughout the course of the academic year, the odds of a medication ordering error decreased by 16% (aOR 0.84, 95% CI 0.80-0.89). CONCLUSIONS Despite electronic medical records, medication ordering errors by trainees remain common. Additional supervision and resident education regarding medication orders may be necessary.
