Qualitative study: Institutional plans for health care crisis conditions during the #COVID19 pandemic did not protect frontline clinicians from having to allocating scarce resources. ja.ma/3PkoX9F @katebutler @annmohare
"[Triage] fell pretty squarely on the point-of-care providers...I feel psychically distressed". Institutional pandemic plans must align with the complex and dynamic conditions that clinicians face in real-world crisis conditions. @UWNephrology

We are thrilled to share that our @UWNephrology faculty have won the 2023 ASN Awards! Dr. Ann O'Hare, Distinguished Mentor Award, Dr. Beno Freedman, the Donald W. Seldon Award, Dr. Ian de Boer, Distinguished Researcher Award, and Dr. Kathy Tuttle, the John P. Peters Award! 👏👏👏
So cool to witness the beginnings of a project that's clearly going to be important for patients. @Yuv90 presenting at @UWNephrology grand rounds on his work to improve access to home dialysis. @annmohare @PennKidney
Inspiring talk at @UWNephrology grand rounds by visting prof @RachelPatzerPhD emphasizing the need for system-level and upstream interventions to improve access and equity in kidney transplant. (And she also managed to sprinkle in some epidemiology classics!)
Amazing how much can get done in 1.5 days! Wonderful to be in a room w/such thoughtful people for this #kdoqi workgroup on pt-centered measures kidney.org/news/nkf-leads-re… @NKF @KidneySW @DanTheKidneyMan @MiriamGodwin4 @kljohansenmd @DrDeidraCrews @roachjl @txswgalmb @itsglendar
Entirely proud to see @annmohare recognized for her leadership in person-centered care. After years of her mentorship, I'm still learning about what it is to truly approach discussions with patients and families (and colleagues, mentees, friends...) openly without agenda.
We are thrilled to share that Dr. Ann O’Hare @annmohare has been appointed as the inaugural holder of the Bill Peckham Endowed Fund for Person-Centered Care! Her career embodies the spirit of all that Bill stood for. nephrology.uw.edu/news/dr-an…

Thanks for highlighting this issue at the intersection of #healthequity and #PersonCenteredCare, @GoHealio! @annmohare @UWNephrology @JRandallCurtis1 @AmakaEMD
Findings suggest that Black, Asian American, and Pacific Islander patient populations want more help to cope with advanced #KidneyDisease. Study was led by @KateButler @UWNephrology. bit.ly/3zdxRgI #healthequity #palliativecare

Difelikefalin: A Novel Therapy for Dialysis Patient Care
"It will take time & effort to scratch the proverbial itch on behalf of patients w/CKD-aP most in need of novel therapies like difelikefalin, but the time & effort can pay off"

Kidney failure and dialysis can mean incredible psychological and social challenges, but our healthcare system may not sufficiently support minoritized racial groups in coping with these challenges.

“This was a setting to try to operationalize a process for making life-and-death patient decisions in a way that most medical professionals have never faced before,” said lead author Dr. @KateButler. #crisiscare #COVID19 bit.ly/3ry7spN @UWNephrology @UWbioethics
No clinician wants to have to decide who will receive scarce resources. WA State triage team simulations illuminated a clinically and ethically complex task. #bioethics @vranas_kelly @laurabwebster @ddiekema1 @JAMANetworkOpen @UWMedicine @TheNetworkNWHRN ja.ma/3xzuOPs

Qualitative research is a crucial tool of medical science. It is a shame many of the highest impact general medicine journals publish virtually no qualitative research. This impedes the development of medical science.

A huge gap between theory and practice is a barrier to designing plans for scarce resource triage. WA state has taken a first step by actually testing an approach to deploying triage teams. @CritCareExplore @TheNetworkNWHRN @UWMedicine journals.lww.com/ccejournal/…
Fantastic synthesis of non-medical barriers to progression through early steps of the transplant evaluation from @Jessica_Harding @RachelPatzerPhD! Mounting evidence for the need for a national referral surveillance and standardized practices. @annmohare sciencedirect.com/science/ar…
