Recent publication in @bmj_latest on the role of clinicians in tackling climate change highlights how reducing low-value care can also lower the environmental footprint of health care:

Adverse event analysis is crucial but incomplete without an equity lens.
We know bias & #inequities contribute to #patientsafety events & ignoring that fact means high-quality care will be forever out of reach.
The good news: There are efforts underway to tackle this 👇 (1/2)

How can you be intentional about incorporating equity into every step of event analysis? Excited to share the work of our team at @NYCHealthSystem to Embed Equity in Patient Safety with a @TheIHI Blog! @kroussMD @KomalBajajMD #healthequity #patientsafety

In our research we found that women were told they were too young to lead, too old to lead...and middle age wasn't quite right either. As it turns out no age is the right age to be a woman leader. See my latest @HarvardBiz article for solutions.

You can help free up nursing time by converting IV antibiotics to PO. Save 1 hr by changing an IV q8h antibiotic to PO!
Consider a point prevalence analysis at your hospital to see how much time could be saved if 10% of courses were changed to PO!

Intervention successful in decreasing routine vitamin D testing acpinternist.org/weekly/arch…
Mona Krouss MD retweeted
This initiative successfully reduced 25-hydroxyvitamin D testing through the use of mandatory appropriate indications and a best practice advisory focusing on a unique area of overuse: the repeat testing within a 3-month interval. #vitaminD #choosingwisely link.springer.com/article/10…
Vitamin D testing is indicated in a handful of clinical scenarios. A simple EHR intervention reduced inpatient and outpatient testing by 45% @HarryChoMD @JournalGIM @drtsega @KomalChandraPhD @PALARCONMD #valueandsafety #highvaluecare #overuse link.springer.com/epdf/10.10…
