Hospital medicine (HM), a well-established clinical specialty, requires clarity of research priorities to identify target areas for investment in HM research infrastructure and activities. The Society of Hospital Medicine's Research Committee developed a 20-item survey and used purposeful sampling of US hospitalist leaders to prioritize primary research topic domains and subdomains. Respondents were asked to rank their HM research priorities using a scale (1 [highest] to 8 [lowest]). Of 239 surveys distributed, 81 (34%) responded. Respondents were predominantly White (53%) and from academic institutions (57%). "Overall, 46% of respondents were male and 33% were female." Top-ranked research domains were innovation in care delivery (median 2, IQR 1,3), value-based care (median 3.5, IQR 2,6), and health disparities (median 4, IQR 2,5). This survey identified top HM research priorities including systems-based topics and health disparities, aligning with HM's identity as a specialty focused on improving systems of care and inequities in care.
医院医学(HM)是一个成熟的临床专业,需要明确研究重点,以确定在医院医学研究基础设施和活动方面的投资目标领域。医院医学协会的研究委员会开展了一项包含20个项目的调查,并对美国医院医师领导者进行了有目的抽样,以确定主要研究主题领域和子领域的优先顺序。要求受访者使用1(最高)至8(最低)的量表对他们的医院医学研究重点进行排序。在分发的239份调查问卷中,81份(34%)得到回复。受访者主要为白人(53%),且来自学术机构(57%)。“总体而言,46%的受访者为男性,33%为女性。”排名靠前的研究领域是护理提供创新(中位数2,四分位距1,3)、基于价值的护理(中位数3.5,四分位距2,6)和健康差异(中位数4,四分位距2,5)。这项调查确定了医院医学的首要研究重点,包括基于系统的主题和健康差异,这与医院医学作为一个专注于改善护理系统和护理不平等的专业的定位相一致。
