ABSTRACT Clinical pharmacists give valuable administrations to adult patients, however, their advantages for pediatric and neonatal patients are less characterized. Many studies state that medication errors in children are more common than in adults with a greater risk of death.Clinical Pharmacists are accepted as the primary source for providing evidence-based information and advice, to ensure the delivery of correct, safest, and most effective medication to patients. This paper presents a review of the role of clinical pharmacists in the pediatric unit and emphasis the importance of clinical pharmacists for all patients, especially in the pediatric age group.

The rotation consists of daily interpretation of Pathology and subspecialty biopsies, participation in subspecialty conferences, slide set study, and assigned readings. Students participate in their own Laboratory Medicine learning by setting their rotation objectives with faculty at the start of their elective and following through with a schedule of clinical, laboratory and core lecture conferences. Students will need to obtain the appropriate Pathologists play many roles in medicine, from interpreting surgical staff members' permission for the rotation as follows: dermatopathology biopsies to supervising clinical laboratory testing.

  • Pediatrics Community About the Residency Recruitment Process May 19, 2021
    APPD/COMSEP/AMSPDC/FuturePedsRes/NextGenPediatricians Letter to Our Pediatrics Community About the Residency Recruitment Process May 19, 2021 The leadership of APPD, COMSEP, AMSPDC, FuturePedsRes, and NextGenPediatricians have been working collaboratively with Undergraduate Medical Education (UME) and Graduate Medical Education (GME) leaders and learners to optimize the recruitment process for applicants and programs. Through this process, we have sought substantial input from applicants, program leaders, chairs, and the greater community including other subspecialties. In addition, we have reviewed and appreciate the recommendations from the Coalition for Physician Accountability. Our primary goal is to optimize the recruitment process for both learners and programs by: (1) Helping learners find programs that match their career goals while providing an atmosphere conducive to their learning styles. (2) Creating a fair and equitable application process for both learners and programs. This past interview season has opened our eyes to ways of improving equity in our processes. In addition, there continues to be uncertainty due to the COVID‐19 pandemic, with some regions still experiencing surges and travel restrictions. Given that many are most focused on the types of interviews we will be doing this coming year, we present that recommendation up front, and then go into the additional recommendations below. Following many conversations and surveys with each of our organizations, we strongly recommend only offering virtual interviews for the 2021‐2022 recruitment cycle for several reasons: (1) Effective assessment: The majority of applicants and programs highlighted that they thought the assessment of applicants was sufficient using virtual interviews in the 2020‐ 2021 cycle. (2) Equity: Virtual interviews are more equitable for applicants and programs, both in terms of cost savings and in terms of any remaining restrictions from the COVID‐19 pandemic.

  • DUKE UNIVERSITY School of Medicine Pathologists' Assistant
    DUKE UNIVERSITY School of Medicine Pathologists’ Assistant Program Department of Pathology Academic Programs The Department of Pathology at Duke University offers a wide array of training programs to fit individual requirements and goals. The Residency Training program is an ACGME approved program and is available as an Anatomic Pathology/Clinical Pathology combined program, a shorter Anatomic Pathology only program, or an Anatomic Pathology/Neuropathology program. Subspecialty fellowships in Cytopathology, Dermatopathology, Hematopathology, Medical Microbiology, and Neuropathology are also ACGME approved. These programs provide the highest quality of graduate medical education by drawing on the depth and breadth of faculty expertise in the Department in all aspects of anatomic and clinical pathology and the availability of a wide variety of often complex clinical cases seen at Duke University Health System. For medical students interested in a career in Pathology pre-doctoral fellowships, internships and externships are available. Research Training in Experimental pathology can be obtained through Pre- and postdoctoral fellowships of one to five years. All pre-doctoral fellows are candidates for the Ph.D. degree in pathology. The Ph.D. is optional in postdoctoral programs, which provide didactic and research training in various aspects of modern experimental pathology. A two year NAACLS accredited Pathologists’ Assistant Program leads to a Master of Health Science degree, certifies graduates to sit for the ASCP Board of Certification examination, and leads to exciting career opportunities in a variety of anatomic pathology laboratory settings. Pathologists’ assistants are analogous to physician assistants, but with highly specialized training in autopsy and surgical pathology. This profession was pioneered in the Duke Department of Pathology 50 years ago, and is one of only twelve such programs in existence today.
