Dalbavancin Use at a Health System Network in Compliance with a Standard Plan of Treatment for Infective Endocarditis and Osteomyelitis
No full textPresentation at the annual 2025 ASHP Midyear Clinical Meeting and Exhibition: This project was a medication use evaluation (MUE), intended to determine whether providers at 7 NYC Health + Hospitals facilities met the criteria of the Dalbavancin Standard Plan of Treatment for Sequential Therapy for Infective Endocarditis and Osteomyelitis. This was accomplished through a retrospective inpatient chart review and by determining patient eligibility, proper indication, and appropriate administration. All dalbavancin orders were compiled between October 2022 and May 2024. Additionally, this MUE served to gauge the effectiveness of dalbavancin therapy across NYC Health + Hospitals facilities within this timeframe

Becoming a Better Teacher Means Becoming a Better Learner: Metacognitive Abilities Predict Effective Learning Strategy Use by College Instructors
No full textMetacognitive-supportive teaching practices encourage effective student learning. Primary and secondary educators often receive formal training in these and other teaching strategies. However, college faculty are infrequently provided with sufficient pedagogical training to encourage the development of metacognitive-supportive teaching methods. In this study, we aim to understand what factors contribute to the effective use of metacognition by college instructors. We asked college instructors from an array of disciplines to evaluate their own degree of metacognitive awareness, their use of metacognitive-supportive teaching practices, and their promotion of metacognition among their own students. We find that college instructors’ own metacognitive awareness and their knowledge of metacognition strongly predict their use of metacognitive supportive teaching practices in the classroom. The use of metacognition was also found to be highest in instructors who hold a background in education. Findings from the present study emphasize the importance of instructors establishing a strong foundation in metacognition prior to their implementation of it in the classroom in order to best support their students. The current study also offers insight into the importance of pedagogical training to achieve this
