Abstracts from the 38th annual meeting of the society of general internal medicine.

The direct feedback intervention method resulted in highly significant (p ≤ 0.01) improvement in the percent of sign-outs documenting five of the checklist items (pre, post): mental status (67.0, 80.0 %), decisionality (51.1, 67.5 %), degree of sick (59.1, 68.5 %), absence of confusing or conflicting information (90.9, 95.3 %), and absence of vague language (61.2, 68.1 %).

There was also a positive trend between HFP and increased dietary adherence to saturated fat, such that each point increase in HFP was associated with a 0.84 increase in saturated fat adherence index (95 % confidence interval [CI]: −0.11, 1.79, p = .08).

Adjusted logistic regression showed a trend toward adherence being inversely associated with death for all definitions, with the association being strongest for MPRp measures (adjusted OR 0.71 to 0.78 [95 % confidence interval (CI) 0.53, 0.86 to 0.58, 1.03] for MPRp measures; aOR 0.80 to 0.90 [95 % CI 0.59, 1.09 to 0.68, 1.19] for MPRi measures).

There was a significant trend toward specialist familiarity with PACT varying by the presence of a primary focus on any patient population: specialists reporting any patient population focus in their work were more familiar with PACT than those without a population focus (30 and 45 % reporting not very familiar or never heard of PACT, respectively; p-value = 0.0542).
