HIV care cascade before and after hospitalization: impact of a multidisciplinary inpatient team in the US South.
Hospitalization represents an opportunity to re-engage out-of-care individuals, improve HIV outcomes, and reduce health disparities. The authors reviewed electronic health records of HIV-positive individuals hospitalized at an urban, public hospital between September 2013 and December 2015. They found that hospitalized patients with HIV had low rates of engagement in care, retention in care, and virologic suppression, though all three outcomes improved after hospitalization. A multidisciplinary transitions team improved care engagement and virologic suppression in those who received the intervention.

Strategies for managing mobile devices for use by hospitalized inpatients.
The authors implemented the PROSPECT (Promoting Respect and Ongoing Safety through Patient-centeredness, Engagement, Communication and Technology) project at Brigham and Women's Hospital. The goal of PROSPECT is to transform the hospital environment by providing a suite of e-tools to facilitate teamwork. In this paper, the authors described decisions and challenges faced and related the strategies used and lessons learned.

Application of participatory ergonomics to the redesign of the family-centred rounds process.
This study applied a participatory ergonomics (PE) approach to redesigning the family-centred rounds (FCR) process to improve family engagement. Human factors and ergonomics (HFE) principles were integrated in both the content and process of FCR redesign. The authors described activities of the PE process and presented data on PE process evaluation. They concluded that to demonstrate the value of PE-based FCR redesign, future research should document its impact on FCR process measures and patient outcome measures.
