Pediatrics, 2018Co-Authors: Shesha K. Katakam, Mary Pat Frintner, Cristina Pelaez-velez, Rana ChakrabortyAbstract:OBJECTIVES: We compared demographics and work, financial, and satisfaction experiences of early-career and midcareer pediatricians categorized by their childhood and medical School locations. METHODS: Data from the Pediatrician Life and Career Experience Study were used to examine the characteristics and experiences of 3 groups, which were categorized as (1) international childhood and medical School Graduate (international-IMG), (2) United States childhood and international medical School Graduate (US-IMG), and (3) United States or international childhood and United States medical School Graduate (USMG). With multivariable logistic regression, we examined the experiences of the groups, controlling for participant characteristics. RESULTS: Data from 1467 of 1804 participants were analyzed; 13% were categorized as international-IMGs, 6% were categorized as US-IMGs, and 81% were categorized as USMGs. International-IMGs and US-IMGs were less likely than USMGs to report their race and ethnicity as white and non-Hispanic (26%, 32%, and 71%, respectively; P CONCLUSIONS: Among a national sample of pediatricians, international-IMGs and US-IMGs play important roles in workforce diversity. They also report unique challenges. Most are satisfied with their work, but international-IMGs are the least satisfied.

family medicine residency program director expectations of procedural skills of medical School Graduates
Family Medicine, 2013Co-Authors: Gretchen M Dickson, Amy K Chesser, Nikki Keene Woods, Nathan R Krug, Rick KellermanAbstract:Background and objectives Mismatch between program directors' expectations of medical School Graduates and the experience of students in medical School has important implications for patient safety and medical education. We sought to define family medicine residency program directors' expectations of medical School Graduates to independently perform various procedural skills and medical School Graduates' self-reported competence to perform those skills at residency outset. Methods In July of 2011, a paper-based survey was distributed nationwide by mail to 441 family medicine residency program directors and 3,287 medical School Graduates enrolled as postGraduate year 1 (PGY-1) residents in family medicine residency programs. Program director expectation of independent performance and recent medical School Graduate self-reported ability to independently perform each of 40 procedures was assessed. Results Surveys were completed and returned from 186 program directors (response rate 42%) and 681 medical School Graduates (response rate 21%). At least 66% of program directors expected interns to enter residency able to independently perform 15 of 40 procedures. More than 80% of new interns reported they were able to independently perform five of the 15 procedures expected by program directors. Conclusions Incongruity exists between program director expectations and intern self-reported ability to perform common procedures. Both patient safety and medical education may be jeopardized by a mismatch of expectation and experience. Assessment of medical students prior to medical School graduation or at the start of residency training may help detect procedural skill gaps and protect patient safety.

risk factors for measles virus infection among adults during a large outbreak in postelimination era in mongolia 2015
The Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2017Co-Authors: Jose E Hagan, Yoshihiro Takashima, Amarzaya Sarankhuu, Otgonbayar Dashpagma, Baigalmaa Jantsansengee, Roberta Pastore, Gunregjav Nyamaa, Buyanjargal Yadamsuren, Mick N Mulders, Kathleen WannemuehlerAbstract:Background In 2015, a large nationwide measles outbreak occurred in Mongolia, with very high incidence in the capital city of Ulaanbaatar and among young adults. Methods We conducted an outbreak investigation including a matched case-control study of risk factors for laboratory-confirmed measles among young adults living in Ulaanbaatar. Young adults with laboratory-confirmed measles, living in the capital city of Ulaanbaatar, were matched with 2-3 neighborhood controls. Conditional logistic regression was used to estimate adjusted matched odds ratios (aMORs) for risk factors, with 95% confidence intervals. Results During March 1-September 30, 2015, 20 077 suspected measles cases were reported; 14 010 cases were confirmed. Independent risk factors for measles included being unvaccinated (adjusted matched odds ratio [aMOR] 2.0, P < .01), being a high School Graduate without college education (aMOR 2.6, P < .01), remaining in Ulaanbaatar during the outbreak (aMOR 2.5, P < .01), exposure to an inpatient healthcare facility (aMOR 4.5 P < .01), and being born outside of Ulaanbaatar (aMOR 1.8, P = .02). Conclusions This large, nationwide outbreak shortly after verification of elimination had high incidence among young adults, particularly those born outside the national capital. In addition, findings indicated that nosocomial transmission within health facilities helped amplify the outbreak.
