Just in! Center faculty Wendy Shields, with co-authors @jlevy2, @LindaChyr, & @SF4publichealth, published a paper in @IP_BMJ finding that the average cost for a scald burn related emergency department visit was $572 & $28,431 for a hospitalization (1/3). https://t.co/ig4hVjcVWS

My @UChicago faculty profile is up! https://t.co/IVfrkzFyb2

I'll be teaching "Videogame Level Design" in January. Attached is the course description.

The Media Arts and Design program didn't exist when I was an undergrad, but I would have LOVED to take such a class!

Lastly, our study included a simple, go-to reference table to find many MCIDs of key PROs relevant to palliative care.

🚨 Follow-up study to our mixed methods review on ambulatory palliative care in @JPSMjournal! We examined the use of minimal clinically important differences (MCIDs) to interpret patient reported outcomes (PROs) @SydneyMDy1 @JulieWRx @AHRQNews https://t.co/JskU2yrm1z...🧵

[Linda Chyr @LindaChyr]

MCIDs as measures of clinical meaningfulness are critical for interpretation of palliative care research with PROs.

Researchers should consider using instruments with well-established MCIDs and incorporate available MCIDs in study design and interpretation.

[Annals of Family Medicine @AnnFamMed]

@lindachyr, et al: Across the literature, models that integrate palliative care into ambulatory care settings:

- incr. advanced directive use
- were no more effective than usual care for improving patient quality of life or depressive symptoms scores
