The profession of medicine also is approaching an epidemic of physician burnout — a complex and systemic issue that is receiving increased attention from both within and outside the field of healthcare. Novel and systemic approaches are needed that directly address the drivers of physician burnout and add wellness as a critical metric to the collective performance of healthcare institutions. \nDr. Samantha Meltzer-Brody\, associate professor of psychiatry\, will explain the new UNC School of Medicine initiative that adopts the Quadruple aim. She also will detail the specific components of this comprehensive\, institution-wide program that seeks to increase physician engagement and application to the Department of Internal Medicine. \nAs national conversations about physician burnout continue to grow louder\, Meltzer-Brody knows there’s not a simple solution to the problem. “Addressing physician burnout requires a dialogue that is both bottom-up and top-down\,” said Meltzer-Brody. “This takes an all-hands-on-deck effort.” \nBuilding Resilience: Current and Future Wellness Programming\, Emerging Directions for Structural Change\nAmy Weil is Co-Leader of the UNC Wellness Committee\, and Co-Advisor of the Larry J. Keith Advising Colleges. Her presentation will introduce a new wellness program. “When you enter the medical field\, whether as a student or a resident\, you’re often optimistic about the profession\,” says Weil. “But external forces too often cause that optimism to deteriorate. The forces in our health care system today threaten to prevent us from having the kind of relationships with patients that allow us to feel fulfilled as physicians. Humanities\, in combination with things like mindfulness and other activities that foster well-being\, can help us remain present when we’re with our patients and prevent those outside pressures from intruding on these relationships. They can inoculate physicians against burnout and help them sustain longer and happier careers.” URL:https://www.med.unc.edu/medicine/event/oct-6/ CATEGORIES:Medicine Grand Rounds ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.med.unc.edu/medicine/wp-content/uploads/sites/945/2019/02/samantha-meltzer-brody.jpeg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20161013T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20161013T130000 DTSTAMP:20260411T093056 CREATED:20161013T160000Z LAST-MODIFIED:20190307T202238Z UID:10000815-1476360000-1476363600@www.med.unc.edu SUMMARY:Medicine Grand Rounds\, John B. Buse "Type 2 Diabetes Care: Struggle\, Progress and the Future" DESCRIPTION:Type 2 diabetes is a major and growing contributor to poor health outcomes globally. Clinical science has conclusively demonstrated that glycemic control reduces the risk of microvascular complications – eye\, kidney and nerve disease. For cardiovascular disease\, blood pressure and lipid management\, smoking cessation and antiplatelet therapies are effective in reducing risk. However\, great controversy regarding the utility of glycemic management to reduce cardiovascular disease has persisted. Further\, treatment with insulin – the mainstay of late diabetes care – has been associated with increasing concerns about hypoglycemia and its impact on health outcomes and quality of care. Dr. Buse will review major trials published over the last 18 months that have revolutionized the landscape of type 2 diabetes care and suggest a new path forward to reduce the morbidity and mortality associated with the diabetes epidemic. \nDr. Buse’s practice combines clinical care\, research and education. He has received international recognition for innovative efforts at prevention of type 1 diabetes\, type 2 diabetes and their complications. He practices patient-centered care focusing on developing treatment programs in collaboration with patients that meet their needs and expectations. He works with teams of investigators in diabetes clinical trials\, comparative effectiveness research and translation of basic science research towards clinical application. Current projects focus in novel treatments including development of glucose-responsive insulin\, cardiovascular safety and efficacy of diabetes drugs and developing the evidence-base for treatment guidelines of the future in diabetes care. \nDr. Buse is Chief of the Division of Endocrinology\, Director of the NC Translational and Clinical Sciences Institute\, Director of the Diabetes Center and is the Executive Associate Dean for Clinical Research at the University of North Carolina School of Medicine. He has clinical practices at the UNC Highgate Specialty Center in Durham\, NC and the Salem Center in Winston-Salem\, NC. He enjoys lecturing about diabetes.
