Rebecca Jaffe, MD @RJmdphilly Early #jhmchat entry to sadly bow out - having squandered my early exit from the office on a 3 hour wrong train escapade to NJ I now want to have some face time with the family. Will catch up if I can later! Was really looking forward to the topic! | |
Adam Rodman @AdamRodmanMD I will see everyone there! @ShaneWarnockMD @mcnamara_lc @zahirkanjee (clearly I'm getting on a bit early) | |

Charlie M. Wray, DO, MS @WrayCharles @zahirkanjee @JHospMedicine @AdamRodmanMD @LannaFelde @mcnamara_lc Really enjoyed you all's piece, Zahir. Made me think twice on my initial opinion #JHMChat | |
Shoshana Herzig, MD, MPH @ShaniHerzig @JHospMedicine @LannaFelde Shani here; hospitalist, researcher, @JHM SDE, and proud to be a colleague of these 4 amazing discussants/authors #jhmchat | |
Vinny Arora MD MAPP @FutureDocs @JHospMedicine A1 I do think patients expect to be examined by a doctor and the act of the exam may boost trust that you’re being thorough (haven’t seen data on this) #jhmchat | |

Erin Shaughnessy MD @EShaughnessyMD @JHospMedicine I think the relationship is enhanced more by dialogue than a repeat exam. Though sometimes the pause when👩⚕️ putting stethoscope to chest leads the patient/family to open up and talk more… that exchange may be more valuable than auscultation. #JHMChat | |
Mark Shapiro, MD @ETSshow @JHospMedicine A1: yes, but must be nuanced & discussed. The use of “routine” & “daily” is where we can debate. Also, not every patient would agree! #JHMChat | |
Adam Rodman @AdamRodmanMD @HeatherNHofmann @SocietyHospMed @zahirkanjee @JHospMedicine @LannaFelde @mcnamara_lc I'm trying to interpret the gif -- who is doing the one arm push up in this scenario?! #JHMChat | |

Charlie M. Wray, DO, MS @WrayCharles @JHospMedicine Yes and no. There are other aspects of our care that I think contribute more to that therapeutic relationship. Sitting down and listening (just as @AdamRodmanMD & @ShaneWarnockMD), IMHO buys more trust #JHMChat | |
Michelle Brooks, MD, SFHM @michellebr00ks @JHospMedicine A1: I find that a lot of patients have ongoing, new, or concerning symptoms while hospitalized, so I do think a routine exam helps me address those concerns. At least the patient feels heard. #JHMChat | |

Laura McNamara @mcnamara_lc @FutureDocs @JHospMedicine I had a patient thank me for doing such a thorough exam overnight when I was admitting them! Anecdotal and not a "daily physical exam" but something I hope to not forget. #jhmchat | |

Ndidi Unaka MD, MEd @NdidiUnaka @JHospMedicine A1: Performing a physical exam builds trust and credibility with patients and/or their families. We do not always get it right in our histories. Labs do not always tell the whole story. Patients change from day to day - the physical exam helps us identify changes. #JHMChat | |

Zahir Kanjee MD, MPH, FACP @zahirkanjee @FutureDocs @JHospMedicine A1 @futuredocs, fully agree. This paper shows (at least in o/p setting) pts expect exams and think higher of their docs who do more of an exam. #jhmchat https://t.co/8rm16Yjh4A | |

Shane Warnock @ShaneWarnockMD @JHospMedicine A1. The patient-doctor relationship is strengthened with a patient-centered approach where every exam is tailored to the patient; each observation/maneuver being purposeful, not just part of a routine #JHMChat | |

Charlie M. Wray, DO, MS @WrayCharles @ShaneWarnockMD @JHospMedicine @ShaneWarnockMD said it better than I did #JHMChat | |
Heather Hofmann, MD, FACP @HeatherNHofmann @ShaneWarnockMD @JHospMedicine “Everything with purpose” is a phrase I’ve used often on rounds. #JHMChat #HighValueCare! | |
Vinny Arora MD MAPP @FutureDocs @WrayCharles @JHospMedicine @AdamRodmanMD @ShaneWarnockMD My last block I sat a lot more with patients when I wasn’t rounding with residents — it was great for our patients and me too. I feel like I learned a lot more sitting there because it was more like a “visit” of a friend or a family versus a doctor ironically. #jhmchat | |
Andrea Anampa-Guzmán (she/ella) @AndreaAnampaG @JHospMedicine A1 I think that it helps to build the relationship if it is done in a respectful way and the patient have their questions answered #JHMChat | |

Jen Readlynn, MD, FHM (she/her) @jenreadlynn @JHospMedicine A1: Firmly in the camp of “it depends.” Patient prior experiences and traumas and reason for admission and ongoing hospitalization all inform whether it helps the relationship. #JHMChat | |

Ndidi Unaka MD, MEd @NdidiUnaka @JHospMedicine A1: My personal experience on the other side of the stethoscope, I felt unseen when a physician I trusted to take my concerns seriously did not attempt to do an exam. We have to be mindful of the implicit messages we convey to patients when we choose not to perform exams #JHMChat | |
Journal of Hospital Medicine @JHospMedicine @MattSakumoto @LannaFelde Thanks for joining Matt! We love hanging with our PCP frans #JHMChat | |
Heather Hofmann, MD, FACP @HeatherNHofmann @AdamRodmanMD @FutureDocs @WrayCharles @JHospMedicine @ShaneWarnockMD Especially in this pandemic time of months of disconnect. #JHMChat | |
Charlie M. Wray, DO, MS @WrayCharles @FutureDocs @JHospMedicine @AdamRodmanMD @ShaneWarnockMD Love it, Vinny! I usually make a big show of "pulling up a chair" (often mildly self-depricating to level the playing field). I've found that patient's like this "conversation" rather than my "performance" of a PE #JHMChat | |

Heather Hofmann, MD, FACP @HeatherNHofmann RT @jenreadlynn: @JHospMedicine A1: @JHospMedicine A1: Firmly in the camp of “it depends.” Patient prior experiences and traumas and reason for admission and ongoing hospitalization all inform whether it helps the relationship. #JHMChat | |
Mark Shapiro, MD @ETSshow @NdidiUnaka @JHospMedicine This is critically important In parallel, we as Hospitalists can always remember to ask to do an exam. Better yet, ask if anything specific they would like you to have a close look at #JHMChat | |
Erin Shaughnessy MD @EShaughnessyMD @AdamRodmanMD @HeatherNHofmann @SocietyHospMed @zahirkanjee @JHospMedicine @LannaFelde @mcnamara_lc I think that’s you, since your arms are free while not performing an exam #JHMChat 😂 | |
Rebecca Jaffe, MD @RJmdphilly @JHospMedicine I think this begs the question why you aren’t doing an exam. If it’s to move faster and spend less time at the bedside no one benefits. The exam is certainly better than nothing at all. #jhmchat | |

Journal of Hospital Medicine @JHospMedicine 🎤 Great discussion! Q2 coming up in a minute! #JHMChat | |
Charlie M. Wray, DO, MS @WrayCharles @ETSshow @NdidiUnaka @JHospMedicine I like this, Mark. Feels like concierge medicine :) #JHMChat | |
Laura McNamara @mcnamara_lc @NdidiUnaka @JHospMedicine Thank you for this. I could not agree more wholeheartedly! Doing the routine physical exam is a powerful check to our own biases #jhmchat | |
Matt Molloy, MD, MPH @MMolloyMD @JHospMedicine A1: I think the exam can build a strong relationship, but it has to be done right. Waking patients up on pre-rounds for a sub-par exam just disturbs sleep. Examining a scared toddler who you can adequately examine visually is unnecessary trauma. The nuance matters. #JHMChat | |
Jen Readlynn, MD, FHM (she/her) @jenreadlynn @AdamRodmanMD @FutureDocs @WrayCharles @JHospMedicine @ShaneWarnockMD Yes, I feel like I can build a better relationship with talking, making eye contact, holding a hand, and really listening. Building the trust so that if I need to do an exam of a painful area, they know it’s with reason and in their beat interest. #JHMChat | |
Journal of Hospital Medicine @JHospMedicine Q2: In what ways does the performance of a daily exam impact meaningful conversations with the patient/family? #JHMChat https://t.co/JpV0npdJrt | |
Noah Rosenberg, MD @nsrosenberg RT @martinkaminski: @JHospMedicine A1: | |
S Galvin, MD, FAAFP @SGalvin2 RT @NdidiUnaka: @JHospMedicine A1: @JHospMedicine A1: Performing a physical exam builds trust and credibility with patients and/or their families. We do not always get it right in our histories. Labs do not always tell the whole story. Patients change from day to day - the physical exam helps us identify changes. #JHMChat | |
Eileen Barrett MD MPH (she/her) @EileenBarrettNM @JHospMedicine A1. Always, if done in a patient centered way, ideally trauma informed and with intention and explanation of findings #JHMChat | |
Frances Ue, MD MPH @TheFrancesUe @JHospMedicine A1: I think this needs to be tailored to the clinical context/ patient’s concerns, as mentioned by @michellebr00ks! Why do a routine physical exam when there is no true diagnostic/ management purpose? Trust building means being honest with patients. #JHMChat | |
Jen Readlynn, MD, FHM (she/her) @jenreadlynn @michellebr00ks @JHospMedicine I’m all about doing a targeted exam to ensure they feel heard but it might look different every day. #JHMChat | |

Charlie M. Wray, DO, MS @WrayCharles @mcnamara_lc @NdidiUnaka @JHospMedicine @mcnamara_lc, I loved you alls take that "if you don't practice it every day, you'll lose the skill over time" argument. #JHMChat | |
Shane Warnock @ShaneWarnockMD @NdidiUnaka @JHospMedicine Great point! I agree; through conversation I try to understand what a patient is concerned about, and take those concerns into consideration if/when examining. Would never ignore a patient concerns! #JHMChat | |

Yichi Zhang (张一弛) @YichiZzzzz @nsrosenberg @JHospMedicine Great point. I feel like for interns/ and us med students, it can be a bad habit to literally be on "autopilot" when doing these routine physicals. If patient is stable and in NAD, much rather spend the 5 minutes chatting about their day instead!! #JHMChat | |
Mark Shapiro, MD @ETSshow @JHospMedicine A2: Starts w/ narration Explaining as you examine what you are doing/seeing/feeling. Relate it to day before “Your heart sounds totally normal” “Oh good, your leg looks much less red than yesterday. Good stuff!” Everything goes from there #JHMChat | |
Eileen Barrett MD MPH (she/her) @EileenBarrettNM @MMolloyMD @JHospMedicine ⬆️ Yes! Can’t wait until we develop work flows that preserve sleep and prioritize what matters #JHMChat | |

Jen Readlynn, MD, FHM (she/her) @jenreadlynn @ETSshow @NdidiUnaka @JHospMedicine I was taught to not ask for consent to examine because it was part of my role as physician. It never sat well with me, and I think making it patient-centered to guide what is needed and what they are comfortable with builds the relationship better. #JHMChat | |

Ndidi Unaka MD, MEd @NdidiUnaka @JHospMedicine A2: From a pediatric perspective, doing a daily (and targeted) exam can actually offer quite a bit of reassurance for families. Physical exams are a way of providing high value care and absolutely can minimize unnecessary tests/ imaging. #JHMChat | |
Eileen Barrett MD MPH (she/her) @EileenBarrettNM @JHospMedicine A2. It can be trust building if we explain what we see and don’t see and why it matters. Especially given power dynamics and how we often speak in ways that aren’t easily understandable to patients #JHMChat | |

Charlie M. Wray, DO, MS @WrayCharles @JHospMedicine In some patients (i.e. HF), I use my daily exam to show progress and elicit hope in going home soon. I find that patients often appreciate this #JHMChat | |

Noah Rosenberg, MD @nsrosenberg @ETSshow @JHospMedicine @ETSshow I love that! I feel our exam is often just too singular of a data piece without the other context. It's why I think the timing of this exam is important- after having other data back(labs etc), it allows us to make better real time bedside assessments #jhmchat | |

Jen Readlynn, MD, FHM (she/her) @jenreadlynn @WrayCharles @mcnamara_lc @NdidiUnaka @JHospMedicine It is a good argument and why I tell my students in my physical exam small group to keep practicing! Get to know your “normal” so when there is a change you catch it. However, I’m not convinced every patient on my service needs it every day. #JHMChat | |
Society of Hospital Medicine @SocietyHospMed @STangGirdwood @JHospMedicine @LannaFelde @CincyPHM No worries! Conversation is still going strong. #JHMChat | |
Charlie M. Wray, DO, MS @WrayCharles @SamirShahMD @FutureDocs @JHospMedicine @AdamRodmanMD @ShaneWarnockMD I had this discussion a few years ago on Twitter. I used to like to sit at the foot of the bed (reminded me of my mom at foot of my bed when I was sick & comforted me). Is the patient's bed off-limits to you? #JHMChat | |

Matt Molloy, MD, MPH @MMolloyMD @JHospMedicine A2: Helps me explain what I'm looking for and how that impacts my thinking. "I'm glad it doesn't bother her when I press here. I don't think there's a bone infection." "His breathing is more comfortable and I hear better air movement. The treatments are working." #JHMChat | |
Jen Readlynn, MD, FHM (she/her) @jenreadlynn RT @NdidiUnaka: @JHospMedicine A1: @JHospMedicine A1: My personal experience on the other side of the stethoscope, I felt unseen when a physician I trusted to take my concerns seriously did not attempt to do an exam. We have to be mindful of the implicit messages we convey to patients when we choose not to perform exams #JHMChat | |
Zahir Kanjee MD, MPH, FACP @zahirkanjee A2: Watch what happens to your relationship to the pt/family when the *the family* finds that new clinical finding before you do! #JHMChat | |

Samir S. Shah @SamirShahMD @zahirkanjee A2: Not ideal but happens on occasion. Always great to have a family engaged in that way. I'm comfortable w/ thanking them. I haven't seen this affect the family's confidence in me but I think how one responds probably makes a big difference in the family's perception. #JHMChat | |
Sonya Tang Girdwood 鄧 智佳, MD, PhD @STangGirdwood @JHospMedicine I work on a service where sometimes PE doesn’t change much day-to-day (patients w/medical complexity w/long LOS) but I find that the act of performing exam is a way of connecting - to allow me to talk with the patient in a close space even if they may not understand me. #JHMChat | |
Shane Warnock @ShaneWarnockMD @JHospMedicine A2. I'd argue potentially meaningful conversations are lost when taking time to perform unnecessary maneuvers. In your patient with CHF, assess the volume status, but minimize the unnecessary. #JHMChat | |
Dhruv Srinivasachar MD (he/el/ele.) @TheRealDSrini @JHospMedicine A2: I know for the past month on our academic wards, my conversation in getting subjective would continue during the physical...asking about specific symptoms while performing exams to elicit signs...helped to recall symptoms that may be missed. #JHMChat | |
Samir S. Shah @SamirShahMD @WrayCharles @FutureDocs @JHospMedicine @AdamRodmanMD @ShaneWarnockMD I ask. Kids seem to find that comforting. #JHMChat | |

Erin Shaughnessy MD @EShaughnessyMD @NdidiUnaka @JHospMedicine A2. I agree, explaining how the exam fits ( or doesn’t) with other findings helps explain the arc of progress (or lack there of). “I can see she is needing less oxygen and her work of breathing is better today too.” #JHMChat | |

Sonya Tang Girdwood 鄧 智佳, MD, PhD @STangGirdwood @JHospMedicine A2: My answer to A1 was along this line but I think being physically close to patient while doing the exam allows for more personal conversation. It’s when I ask my Peds patients about school, favorite things they like to do, etc while residents may be talking w/family. #JHMChat | |

Dhruv Srinivasachar MD (he/el/ele.) @TheRealDSrini @NdidiUnaka @JHospMedicine It also allows for the child to engage in seeing the doctor more than just talking may...I know for anyone over the age of 2.5 they probably can place the stethoscope where it's supposed to go...and have a few laughs along the way...#JHMChat | |
Heather Hofmann, MD, FACP @HeatherNHofmann Is anyone keeping score? So far, we’ve got challenges to defining “routine,” and different ways to empower patients #JHMChat | |
Samir S. Shah @SamirShahMD A2: May give false reassurance if that exam replaces time talking with the patient & family, who may provide important info about illness evolution or who may remember other pertinent historical information that influences differential or management #JHMChat | |
Yichi Zhang (张一弛) @YichiZzzzz @JHospMedicine A3: Unnecessary diagnostic tests! Affects patients' rest and adds to financial burden. Also increases anxiety for everyone (patient and the team!) And domino effect can mean more tests are coming one after another... #JHMChat | |
Matt Sakumoto @MattSakumoto @RJmdphilly @jenreadlynn @WrayCharles @mcnamara_lc @NdidiUnaka @JHospMedicine And just to clarify we’re not saying “No exam ever” right? I think the reps you get from a full H&P on admission should be enough to keep attg PE skills up. MedEd exams (esp Med students) to learn normal is a diff story #JHMChat | |
Dhruv Srinivasachar MD (he/el/ele.) @TheRealDSrini @JHospMedicine A3: Goes back to my A1, if it becomes performative, and say we're waiting for placement or at a diagnostic crossroads...are we really benefitting the patient by wasting valuable time for...say...sleep? One of my patients may have caused me to ask this...#JHMChat | |

Matt Molloy, MD, MPH @MMolloyMD @zahirkanjee I think this happens in peds not infrequently. Exams on fussy kids can be limited. Sometimes when there is diagnostic uncertainty I actually tell parents what I want them to look for! #JHMChat | |
Rebecca Jaffe, MD @RJmdphilly I think one of the central arguments we are making is that the exam should be done for a purpose. But also that there are many and fairly nuanced purposes #JHMChat | |
Journal of Hospital Medicine @JHospMedicine @MattSakumoto @RJmdphilly @jenreadlynn @WrayCharles @mcnamara_lc @NdidiUnaka Good point Matt! We're saying the routine daily exam is a follow up exam on a stable patient #JHMChat | |
Erin Shaughnessy MD @EShaughnessyMD @JHospMedicine As a pediatrician I choose when I must do an exam and when it’s okay not to. At times aggravating a fearful toddler is not worth the limited info I would get I may decide that building trust is more important so that I can do that exam when truly needed. #JHMChat | |
Ndidi Unaka MD, MEd @NdidiUnaka @JHospMedicine A3: Physical exams are harmful when they are done without intention, when we are robotic and not fully "present", and when we fail to maintain the patient's dignity/ modesty #JHMChat | |
Dhruv Srinivasachar MD (he/el/ele.) @TheRealDSrini @MariaMjaleman @JHospMedicine Exactly. My answer more specifically focused on the first exam of the day by the day team but your point is duly noted! #JHMChat | |

Andrea Anampa-Guzmán (she/ella) @AndreaAnampaG @JHospMedicine A3 The patients may not like being wakened up for something they do not understand. It can become a performance routine #JHMChat | |
Sonya Tang Girdwood 鄧 智佳, MD, PhD @STangGirdwood @michellebr00ks @JHospMedicine Or, if we try not to wake patients, it means we didn’t turn on lights so could we really assess erythema in cellulitis, or retractions in bronchiolitis, or hear breath sounds over all the blankets & onesies? And is it possible that assessments are made on suboptimal PEs? #JHMChat | |
Rebecca Berger 🇮🇱 @RebeccaEBerger Rebecca Berger, hospitalist in NYC, joining fashionably late for tonight’s #jhmchat | |
Samir S. Shah @SamirShahMD @AdamRodmanMD @michellebr00ks @JHospMedicine I discourage my residents from doing them (but they all still do them), especially since we round as a group at the bedside. However, some residents find it helpful to consolidate their thinking about the patient. #JHMChat | |

Waking a pt at 645, asking them to undo a gown, and listen to their lungs is not always patient centered approach, when that time could be spent sitting at eye level and allowing them to feel heard and less like a specimen. #jhmchat | |
Jen Readlynn, MD, FHM (she/her) @jenreadlynn RT @NdidiUnaka: @JHospMedicine A3: @JHospMedicine A3: Physical exams are harmful when they are done without intention, when we are robotic and not fully "present", and when we fail to maintain the patient's dignity/ modesty #JHMChat | |

Heather Hofmann, MD, FACP @HeatherNHofmann RT @RJmdphilly: I think one of the central arguments we are making is that the exam should be done for a purpose. But also that there are many and fairly nuanced purposes #JHMChat | |
Samir S. Shah @SamirShahMD A3: Not sure if someone mentioned this but exams can be fairly traumatic for young kids so doing them in full daily may simply make it harder to assess what's most important. Not fun when a child starts crying the moment enter the room #JHMChat | |
Journal of Hospital Medicine @JHospMedicine Q4: How might the practice of the routine daily physical exam protect against or contribute to physician burnout? #JHMChat https://t.co/79IG2OquRa | |

Zahir Kanjee MD, MPH, FACP @zahirkanjee @AdamRodmanMD @ShaneWarnockMD i think strongest arguments you make against routine exam is if it crowds out other stuff--holding a hand, sitting, listening.benefits of expertise/recognizing normal/etc hard to compete with that,but i'd like to think it's not "either/or" #JHMChat | |

Charlie M. Wray, DO, MS @WrayCharles I just want to take this opportunity to show my appreciation to my Peds colleagues. You all diagnose (many) of your patients while they fight your physical exam. That's pretty damn cool. I'd call that magic! #JHMChat | |
Reshon Hadmon, MD 🩺 @HadmonReshon @JHospMedicine @SocietyHospMed Tough one. For me, each patient situation is different and yes PE should be thorough but also a physician should be considerate of the patient’s current health and ability to do maneuvers.#JHMCHAT | |

Vinny Arora MD MAPP @FutureDocs @AdamRodmanMD @michellebr00ks Reminds me of a patient who used to greet me and say “I’m at UChicago hospital and the President is Obama” as a way to tell me he is oriented #JHMChat | |
Matt Molloy, MD, MPH @MMolloyMD @WrayCharles Sometimes I feel like a magician, sometimes a clown, sometimes an alligator wrestler. #JHMChat | |
Zahir Kanjee MD, MPH, FACP @zahirkanjee A4: self-efficacy and mastery that comes from practice/excellence/expertise in physical exam and (crucially) physical diagnosis is an inoculation against burnout #JHMChat | |
Charlie M. Wray, DO, MS @WrayCharles @MMolloyMD I'm sure that any one of those three are entertaining for your patients, Matt (I'm just saying) #jhmchat | |
Rebecca Jaffe, MD @RJmdphilly This! #jhmchat if we really practiced team based care so much could be cut out. Tech helps - capturing media for example could be a big win | |
Yichi Zhang (张一弛) @YichiZzzzz @JHospMedicine A4: when I'm pre-rounding as a student, by the time I get to the end of my list, I definitely feel drained and want to interact less with patients. So sometimes I reverse the list order so that my patients with last name "Z" don't hate me. #JHMChat https://t.co/5Ss4kepGyG | |
Adam Rodman @AdamRodmanMD @JHospMedicine I don't think it has any effect FWIW. #JHMChat | |
Laura McNamara @mcnamara_lc @JHospMedicine A4: i am curious about other folks, but for me human touch, even through a stethoscope and through gloves, a gown, a mask, and goggles, was hugely protective for me amidst this ongoing covid pandemic #jhmchat | |
Jen Readlynn, MD, FHM (she/her) @jenreadlynn @JHospMedicine A3: Putting too much weight in a normal exam or maneuver without much evidence, extra testing (🙋♀️ guilty of ultrasound for AAA when palpating normal aorta), pain, fear. #JHMChat | |
Heather Hofmann, MD, FACP @HeatherNHofmann @JHospMedicine A4: we have to acknowledge that our skills require repetition to reach expert level. If you relate burnout to quality, we’re looking at building confidence, increasing quality + reducing burnout. That’s quite the challenge + at the expense of the patient? #JHMChat | |
Ndidi Unaka MD, MEd @NdidiUnaka @JHospMedicine A4: Unfortunately, so much of medicine is practiced away from the bedside. Being with and assessing patients at the bedside is a foundational part of our profession and highlights what many of us were drawn to! #JHMChat | |
Sonya Tang Girdwood 鄧 智佳, MD, PhD @STangGirdwood @JHospMedicine In high census, I’m a fan of discovery rounds with the residents, where we do the exam together on rounds for stable patients. Means that the intern doesn’t have to run around trying to do a cursory exam on lots of patients and it turns the exam into teaching moments. #JHMChat | |

Adam Rodman @AdamRodmanMD @zahirkanjee Strong disagree! I think this misses the mark on what contributes to burnout (which is largely out working conditions). I am skeptical of every "this inoculates against burnout" argument #JHMChat | |

Reshon Hadmon, MD 🩺 @HadmonReshon @JHospMedicine @SocietyHospMed 👀Is it really the physical exam causing the burnout? It is a skill of the physician. I do think there are more factors to burnout.#JHMCHAT | |
Shane Warnock @ShaneWarnockMD @JHospMedicine A4. Being mindful, staying in the moment, and treating each patient interaction uniquely prevents us from falling into routines that can make a day feel less stimulating and more of the same. #JHMChat | |

Diana Mahbod, MD, CPE, FASN, FNKF @DiMiRenalMD Hi, Diana here, nephrologist in Dallas. Have been lurking and enjoying the convo so thanks all and hope to join again #JHMChat | |
Dhruv Srinivasachar MD (he/el/ele.) @TheRealDSrini @JHospMedicine A4: I don't know if it makes much of a difference... looking for changes energizes me...only seeing the same thing everyday disappoints...especially if the patient is not getting better...and is looking for interesting physical signs merely a neat party trick? #JHMChat | |
Erin Shaughnessy MD @EShaughnessyMD @WrayCharles The amount of fight in the child is telling in and of itself! Am I right @NdidiUnaka? #SickOrNotSick #PHMforLife #JHMChat | |
Society of Hospital Medicine @SocietyHospMed @DiMiRenalMD Glad you enjoyed and hope to see you next month! #JHMChat | |
Eric Schultz @ericschul @JHospMedicine A4: If not done with a particular purpose, can feel like mindless box-checking for documentation/billing purposes which contributes to burnout. Done well, it can strengthen the human connection between clinician and patient which is protective against burnout. #JHMChat | |
Journal of Hospital Medicine @JHospMedicine @DiMiRenalMD Thanks for hanging out, Diana! Glad you were here. #JHMChat | |
Rebecca Berger 🇮🇱 @RebeccaEBerger @zahirkanjee This happens a lot, new extremity swelling, rashes in places we don’t uncover every day. Important to stay humble and be thankful. Even more reason to make every exam intentional rather than going through the motions #JHMChat | |
Journal of Hospital Medicine @JHospMedicine ⏳ Time flies! This #JHMChat has just a few minutes remaining. Any take 🏠 points? | |
Society of Hospital Medicine @SocietyHospMed Thank you all for being a part of this #JHMChat. 🙏 As we wind down, please take some time to fill out our brief feedback form. 📝 We want to hear from you to learn how we can continue to improve #JHMChat! 👀 https://t.co/k9nukavP9F | |
Jen Readlynn, MD, FHM (she/her) @jenreadlynn @MattSakumoto @RJmdphilly @WrayCharles @mcnamara_lc @NdidiUnaka @JHospMedicine Absolutely! There are many daily exams that are helpful. At admission and even my first time meeting a patient are musts. If I don’t know what’s going on, repeat exam and try other techniques. Physical exam is a valuable tool, but not one every patient needs every day. #JHMChat | |
Eileen Barrett MD MPH (she/her) @EileenBarrettNM @JHospMedicine A4. If it used to forge connections & trust w patients or a way to engage our minds/hearts, I’ve found it restorative. Nerd alert 🚨 : I love percussing the chest & belly, listening for evolvong gallops, describing signs of elevated portal pressure. #JHMChat | |
Rebecca Jaffe, MD @RJmdphilly A4 this one is difficult in covid times - during the height of things the need to do some sort of perfunctory exam with a crap stethoscope that was going to direct me clinically in little to no meaningful way at great personal risk did add to my feelings of burnout. #JHMChat | |
Heather Hofmann, MD, FACP @HeatherNHofmann RT @ShaneWarnockMD: @JHospMedicine A4. Being mindful, staying in the moment, and treating each patient interaction uniquely prevents us from falling into routines that can make a day feel less stimulating and more of the same. #JHMChat | |
Ndidi Unaka MD, MEd @NdidiUnaka @ErinShaughness4 @WrayCharles YES!!! #JHMChat | |
Zahir Kanjee MD, MPH, FACP @zahirkanjee @AdamRodmanMD @HadmonReshon @JHospMedicine @SocietyHospMed A4: I'm not saying it's the only factor (at all!), but part of burnout is a lack of self-efficacy. Feeling like you can make a difference on outcomes with your hands (right there and then!) feels good. improving/excelling at exam makes me feel better/more fulfilled. #JHMChat | |
Jen Readlynn, MD, FHM (she/her) @jenreadlynn RT @NdidiUnaka: @JHospMedicine A4: @JHospMedicine A4: Unfortunately, so much of medicine is practiced away from the bedside.

Ndidi Unaka MD, MEd @NdidiUnaka @DiMiRenalMD Thanks for joining! #JHMChat | |
Dhruv Srinivasachar MD (he/el/ele.) @TheRealDSrini @AdamRodmanMD @zahirkanjee This...all of this...burnout is a product of the broken system we have and honestly has little to do with how we individually practice medicine...#JHMChat | |
Frances Ue, MD MPH @TheFrancesUe @JHospMedicine A4: Spending quality time at the bedside with the patient protects against burnout -- a reminder of why we all went into this profession. How that quality time is defined -- usually does not mean a routine exam but findings ways to establish a human connection. #JHMChat | |
Eileen Barrett MD MPH (she/her) @EileenBarrettNM @HeatherNHofmann @JHospMedicine So interesting! I talk with my learners about why we confirm the PE findings we expect when we know the diagnosis is so that we know what to look for when we don’t. It’s also SO helpful in resource limited areas #JHMChat | |
Rebecca Berger 🇮🇱 @RebeccaEBerger @RJmdphilly Daily lung exams on stable COVID patients without underlying obstructive lung disease do not change my management, so I don’t do them. Worsening hypoxia or known asthma/COPD absolutely deserves exam. Intentionality matters. #JHMChat | |
Joe Thomas, MD @DocWithBowtie @JHospMedicine A4: Protects against vs. contributing burnout probably depends on our relationship created with the patient. Also depends on our attitude. Sometimes I feel impatient as a patient is telling me something that maybe isn’t immediately relevant, but they want to share.#JHMChat | |
Erin Shaughnessy MD @EShaughnessyMD @TheRealDSrini @WrayCharles (I see what you did there) #JHMChat | |
Jen Readlynn, MD, FHM (she/her) @jenreadlynn @AdamRodmanMD @zahirkanjee Being at the bedside with my patients helps protect against burnout. It doesn’t mean I have to do an exam. #JHMChat | |
Joe Thomas, MD @DocWithBowtie @JHospMedicine Sometimes I need to remember to chill and make that patient feel listened to. (Also, sorry I’m late!) #JHMChat | |
Dhruv Srinivasachar MD (he/el/ele.) @TheRealDSrini @AdamRodmanMD @JHospMedicine I saw the Frank sign in a patient during my second week of wards this month...I can 100% tell you it did not contribute to him getting any further workup for CAD...#JHMChat | |

Heather Hofmann, MD, FACP @HeatherNHofmann @AdamRodmanMD @zahirkanjee How many times must a hospitalist hear a normal exam to then ID abnormal? Probably not many. What are the risks of missing something you didn’t know you needed to examine? We really must see the importance of strong history taking skills and where the routine PE fits. #JHMChat | |

Sonya Tang Girdwood 鄧 智佳, MD, PhD @STangGirdwood @JHospMedicine I just added to my expectations sheet for the residents on my team my expectations about the physical exam on rounds, specifically stating discovery rounds on stable patients is okay! #JHMChat | |
Shane Warnock @ShaneWarnockMD RT @jenreadlynn: @AdamRodmanMD @zahirkanjee Being at the bedside with my patients helps protect against burnout. It doesn’t mean I have to do an exam. #JHMChat | |
Yichi Zhang (张一弛) @YichiZzzzz @AdamRodmanMD @TheRealDSrini @JHospMedicine When we do find these subtle signs though, it will get me amped up for hours 🤓, so I guess physicals can be protective against burnout in this sense? #JHMChat | |
Journal of Hospital Medicine @JHospMedicine @DocWithBowtie No worries Joe! Thanks for hopping on! #JHMChat | |
Rebecca Jaffe, MD @RJmdphilly @RebeccaEBerger Agreed - just tapping into the May 2020 guilt fear anger cocktail which was different from the Nov 2021 self confidence and thoughtful justification. #jhmchat | |

Matt Molloy, MD, MPH @MMolloyMD @JHospMedicine A4: I'm not sure daily exams impact burnout either way, but I do think getting to the bedside and developing relationships with patients remind us of why we became doctors and shields against burnout. One of my exams on Sunday involved toy cars. My job rocks! #JHMChat | |
Jen Readlynn, MD, FHM (she/her) @jenreadlynn @HeatherNHofmann I need to use discovery rounds more. The few times I’ve done it, it’s been so great. This has been an excellent motivator! #JHMChat | |
Hemal N. Sampat, M.D. @SampatMD @JHospMedicine A4 - Low-hanging fruit: put real stethoscopes in the room of pts on contact precautions. The cheap plastic ones are a symbol of the routine physical exam becoming a daily chore that gives no useful info and leads to burnout, rather than a vital clinical skill and tool. #JHMChat | |
