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.

Redesigning systems to improve teamwork and quality for hospitalized patients (RESET): study protocol evaluating the effect of mentored implementation to redesign clinical microsystems.
The goal of this study was to implement the Advanced and Integrated MicroSystems (AIMS) set of evidence-based complementary interventions across a range of clinical microsystems, to identify factors and strategies associated with successful implementation, and to evaluate impact on quality. The AIMS interventions are Unit-based Physician Teams; Unit Nurse-Physician Co-leadership; Enhanced Interprofessional Rounds; Unit-level Performance Reports; Patient Engagement Activities. Four hospital sites, each with a local leadership team, received guidance and resources to implement the AIMS interventions. A multi-method approach was used to collect and triangulate qualitative data during three visits to the sites. Outcomes included teamwork climate and adverse events.
