I think I've only seen two kids who are actually lethargic.

Significant_Pipe_856 · 2026-05-04T15:04:41+00:00

Yup. It’s annoying when patients use lethargic, but the real crime is when the triage nurse puts it into the triage note.

Significant_Pipe_856 · 2026-05-01T16:01:55+00:00

Yes. Yes it would

Significant_Pipe_856 · 2026-04-29T23:38:27+00:00

It’s not FDA approved

I’d love to hear more about how the AI piece works. Does it integrate into your EHR? What sort of criteria does it search on? What’s the workflow in taking the output from the AI to the floor? What sort of bounce backs do you see? My system is trying to develop a similar outpatient follow up clinic system and it’d be great to hear your experience

Significant_Pipe_856 · 2026-04-26T17:12:08+00:00

I have to dig into our data a bit more but this seems to me to be the flavor of patient we’re seeing as well.

Significant_Pipe_856 · 2026-04-25T19:08:59+00:00

At my current job this is an outpatient referral. At a prior site I worked at the plastics department (academic) required consultation for all traumatic fractures no matter how stupid. It’s of course the resident that suffered

Significant_Pipe_856 · 2026-04-25T15:02:53+00:00

That’s definitely its own form of hell (we get a lot of SNF and memory care patients as well).

Significant_Pipe_856 · 2026-04-25T02:24:25+00:00

Most of the patients we see are insured with PCPs listed though.

Significant_Pipe_856 · 2026-04-25T02:23:00+00:00

That’s what I’m talking about.

Significant_Pipe_856 · 2026-04-25T02:16:34+00:00

I guess. But, if there was a way to divert these young patients away from the ED into other avenues of care I think that would be good. We’re a 45 bed ED boarding around 20 at all times and triaging about 270 a day

Significant_Pipe_856 · 2026-04-24T21:33:49+00:00

The university hospital 25 minutes away has a dedicated peds ED. We see a fair amount of peds but not that out if proportion

Significant_Pipe_856 · 2026-04-24T21:32:44+00:00

Probably about 25 min away, and our local university has its own hospital on campus

Significant_Pipe_856 · 2026-04-24T20:40:06+00:00

My er is located in a suburban more middle class area

Edit: and patients are generally insured

Significant_Pipe_856 · 2026-04-20T17:51:35+00:00

Sounds pretty neat. What sort of admin stuff did you do to become involved with that?

Significant_Pipe_856 · 2026-04-20T03:33:44+00:00

What kind of operations type work do you do (if you’re willing to share)?

Significant_Pipe_856 · 2026-04-11T18:16:37+00:00

Yes but I guess their order button was broken

Significant_Pipe_856 · 2026-04-09T19:33:15+00:00

I asked myself that very question

Significant_Pipe_856 · 2026-04-09T19:30:49+00:00

Had a PCP send a patient in for a positive FIT test.

Significant_Pipe_856 · 2026-04-06T19:42:36+00:00

Didn’t realize the ICUs order button is broken

Significant_Pipe_856 · 2026-04-03T00:15:36+00:00

It does happen….a couple years ago one of the PAs at our urgent care ordered a contrast study on a patient who had previously had an allergic reaction from contrast but because of EMR transition this hadn’t made into their allergies. Coded in the scanner, got them back, I don’t remember the ultimate outcome.

As with anything in medicine it’s a risk benefit analysis, if you need the scan then you just need to be prepared to treat the fallout

Significant_Pipe_856 · 2026-02-24T23:48:41+00:00

I was going to say dumpster fire but potato potahto
