Intern and resident workflow patterns on pediatric inpatient units: a multicenter time-motion study.
The researchers sought to quantify the proportion of time spent by residents in direct care, indirect care activities, and education across 9 pediatric institutions. They found that across all sites and levels of training, trainees spent more time in interprofessional communication (34.7 percent), and at the computer (20.5 percent), and less time in contact with patients and families (12.0 percent) and in educational activities (4.7 percent).

Patient perceptions of whom is most involved in their care with successive duty hour limits.
The researchers aimed to assess if patients’ perceptions of who is most involved in their care changed with residency duty hours. They found that after successive residency duty hours limits, hospitalized patients were more likely to report the attending physician and less likely to report the resident or intern as most involved in their hospital care.
