In the halls of medicine, where the healers roam, a new alliance forged, to guide patients home. Have you ever heard of a program that enables hospitals to partner with local spine surgeons to offer a surgery guarantee to their patients? "Why would anyone want to do that?" you ask. - Hospitals invest lots of money into building spine surgery facilities and need to utilize them. Use it or lose it. - Spine Surgeons want to do what they invested their life into: helping people in their community heal from spine disease. - Patients want to know they have chosen the right surgeon. - We (Marvel Group) are on a mission to safeguard patients, empower spine surgeons, and fortify hospital finances. So, we’ve found that offering the Patient Promise program helps align everyone around the one common goal: Doing everything possible to make sure the patient gets the best surgery the first time around. When that happens, all of the stakeholders benefit. #Texas Hospital Association #American Hospital Association

Just published a new research! We used the T-NOTECHS evaluation scale to assess medical team performance in multicasualty event simulations. This is the first study to show that this simple tool can be used in this context. Our findings emphasize how crucial are non-technical skills, like team communication, to successfully manage multicasualty events. Thankful for the opportunity to have led this research while serving as the Head of the Trauma Instruction Department in the IDF Military Medical Academy. Special thanks to Dr. stav regev for her invaluable assistance in completing this project. The publication is now available online in the Journal of Trauma and Acute Care Surgery: https://lnkd.in/gnk63bZF #TraumaCare #MedicalEducation #Prehospital

Today - on his birthday - we are proud to highlight the work of Dr. Vivien Thomas, who changed the history of heart surgery and broke barriers along the way. ❤️ Grandson of a slave, Vivien Thomas was planning to attend medical school but lost his savings in the wake of the 1929 stock market crash. He secured a job as a lab assistant at Vanderbilt University with Dr. Alfred Blalock. Thomas rapidly mastered complex surgical techniques, but in an era when institutional racism was the norm, Thomas was classified, and paid, as a janitor. Dr. Blalock moved to Johns Hopkins University in 1941 and urged Thomas to come with him. Together, along with Dr. Helen Taussig, they developed the procedure used in the "blue baby" operation—the first attempt to treat Tetralogy of Fallot. Though Thomas was not credited at the time, he was truly a cardiac pioneer who developed techniques and tools that would lead to today’s modern heart surgery. Thomas supervised the surgical research laboratories at Johns Hopkins from 1941–1979, training and educating the world’s finest heart surgeons. In 1976, Johns Hopkins University presented Thomas with an honorary doctorate.
