    Abstract One of the most influential roles clinical psychologists play in health care settings is as consultant to medical colleagues. The psychologist consultant typically approaches either clinical or programmatic questions intending to tap both empirical research and clinical judgment perspectives in trying to answer them. This paper describes a specific "program consultation case," a not atypical consultation situation in which graduate medical education directors asked for advice about their residency training program. The purpose is to use this example to generate ideas and provoke discussion about such consultation processes and their usefulness in the health care training and service delivery world. The psychologist may be faced with questions that have meaningful implications beyond the specific consultation. What if the concerns being posed by this particular program are concerns which have been raised before, have been researched before, and have generated reasonable suggestions, conclusions, and strategies for improvement? And what if no one has paid attention, so that the questions are being raised again? When empirical and clinical data consistently combine to identify problems within health-related training or service delivery systems, and when suggestions or alternatives for their solutions have been presented and, also presumably, ignored, what does the clinical psychologist consultant do next?

    Abstract Sustainability leadership has the transformative potential of helping to center an array of skills and mindsets needed for leaders and leaderful organizations and collectives to successfully address the many interrelated and connected challenges of the 21st century. This article makes the case that the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a useful framework for integrating sustainability into leadership education and development broadly and can advance these needed skill sets and learning orientations. Leadership educators should consider centering this in their work in order to effectively prepare learners for the challenges of today and tomorrow.

  4. Book ; Online: Composition of nested embeddings with an application to outlier removal

    Chawla, Shuchi / Sheridan, Kristin

    Abstract We study the design of embeddings into Euclidean space with outliers. Given a metric space $(X,d)$ and an integer $k$, the goal is to embed all but $k$ points in $X$ (called the ``outliers") into $\ell_2$ with the smallest possible distortion $c$. Finding the optimal distortion $c$ for a given outlier set size $k$, or alternately the smallest $k$ for a given target distortion $c$ are both NP-hard problems. In fact, it is UGC-hard to approximate $k$ to within a factor smaller than $2$ even when the metric sans outliers is isometrically embeddable into $\ell_2$. We consider bi-criteria approximations. Our main result is a polynomial time algorithm that approximates the outlier set size to within an $O(\log^2 k)$ factor and the distortion to within a constant factor. The main technical component in our result is an approach for constructing Lipschitz extensions of embeddings into Banach spaces (such as $\ell_p$ spaces). We consider a stronger version of Lipschitz extension that we call a \textit{nested composition of embeddings}: given a low distortion embedding of a subset $S$ of the metric space $X$, our goal is to extend this embedding to all of $X$ such that the distortion over $S$ is preserved, whereas the distortion over the remaining pairs of points in $X$ is bounded by a function of the size of $X\setminus S$. Prior work on Lipschitz extension considers settings where the size of $X$ is potentially much larger than that of $S$ and the expansion bounds depend on $|S|$. In our setting, the set $S$ is nearly all of $X$ and the remaining set $X\setminus S$, a.k.a. the outliers, is small. We achieve an expansion bound that is logarithmic in $|X\setminus S|$.

    Abstract Introduction: Adequate pain control after outpatient pediatric urologic surgery is important for both providers and caregivers; however, opioid pain medications are often prescribed in excess of utilization. The resultant excess opioid medication has potential to be diverted or misused. While families are instructed to dispose of leftover opioids, a significant proportion may not dispose of leftover medication. We performed a quality improvement (QI) initiative within a tertiary academic care center to examine opioid excess, opioid disposal, and whether a two-component QI intervention of provider education and family education via automated SMS messages on opioid disposal could improve excess opioid prescribing and leftover opioid disposal.
    Materials and methods: Prospective parent surveys were performed on a baseline cohort of 73 patients undergoing outpatient pediatric urologic surgery between July 27 and September 4, 2020. Based on baseline data, a two-component quality improvement initiative was implemented. The first component was non-binding surgeon education regarding opioid prescribing versus opioid utilization. The second component was initiation of automated SMS messages to families after surgery with information on expected postoperative course and hyperlinked instructions for opioid disposal with GPS search for opioid disposal sites nearby. We then repeated the survey for a second cohort of patients between September 14 and October 29, 2021, including additional questions regarding SMS message utility.
    Results: Of 73 patients in the baseline group, 46% were prescribed opioids (Summary Table). Of patients prescribed opioids, a median of 3 doses were used and 96% had leftover opioid medication. Seventeen percent of parents in the baseline group disposed of unused opioids prior to survey completion (1-4 weeks postop). After the intervention, 19 of 74 (26%) patients were prescribed opioids. In the group that received opioids, a median of 2 doses were used and 63% reported disposing of opioids. Ninety-six percent of parents reported satisfaction with SMS messages.
    Discussion: Many competing priorities exist for surgical providers and parents of children undergoing outpatient pediatric urologic surgery. A passive program that delivers just-in-time information in the postoperative period has high utility for both parents and providers.
    Conclusions: Automated SMS messages and provider education about opioid utilization are associated with decreased excess opioid after outpatient pediatric urologic surgery and improved opioid disposal rates by parents. These interventions are easily implemented without significant manpower and should be considered by organizations interested in decreasing excess community opioids after outpatient pediatric urologic surgery.

    Abstract Background: Infectious Disease Society of America (IDSA) guidelines recommend the usage of a loading dose when using vancomycin for seriously ill patients. While the relationship between vancomycin and nephrotoxicity is the focus of many studies, few studies have examined the relationship between vancomycin loading doses and nephrotoxicity.
    Methods: We performed a retrospective cohort study examining vancomycin dosing for internal medicine teaching services' patients over the 2014-15 academic year at one academic medical center. We generated a list of all hospitalized patients aged 18-85 who received vancomycin and were admitted to a teaching service. Nephrotoxicity was determined by 7-day acute kidney injury (AKI) rate. Patients in the loading dose cohort were compared with those in the standard-dose cohort. Primary modeling used multivariable logistic regression with AKI as our outcome of interest.
    Results: Four hundred and thirty-eight patients were included for analysis. The loading dose (n = 365, 83%) and standard dosing (n = 73, 17%) cohorts were not significantly different regarding demographics, GFR, nephrotoxic drug exposure, total vancomycin received, trough levels, or comorbidities and were only significantly different regarding body mass index (BMI). The 7-day AKI rate was not significantly different between the two arms (6.3% in the standard dosing arm and 8.2% in the loading dose arm, p = 0.6).
    Conclusion: Few studies have examined the relationship between nephrotoxicity and vancomycin loading doses. The results of this study provide evidence that the use of loading doses is not significantly associated with increased 7-day AKI rate.

    Abstract Understanding patterns in coral reproductive biology at local and regional scales is crucial to elucidate our knowledge of characteristics that regulate populations and communities. The lack of published data on coral spawning patterns in the Maldives hinders our understanding of coral reproductive biology and limits our ability to assess shifts in reproductive phenology over time. Here we document baseline environmental cues, spawning patterns, exact timings and oocyte development of restored and wild
