Formative evaluation of the video reflexive ethnography method, as applied to the physician-nurse dyad.
Poor communication between physicians and nurses continues to contributor to adverse events in the hospital setting. This article evaluates the use of video reflexive ethnography (VRE) as a means of improving communication and improving patient safety, and concludes that video-record communication between physicians and nurses during patient care rounds is feasible and acceptable.

Alarm fatigue: clearing the air.
The authors discuss an article in the same issue of the Journal of Hospital Medicine by Paine and colleagues that sets out to review the small but growing body of literature addressing physiologic monitor alarms and interventions that have tried to address alarm fatigue. They conclude that the review demonstrates that the great majority of alarms do not help clinicians and likely contribute to alarm fatigue.
