Trauma-informed primary care for residents
Andrea Garroway recently joined TIHCER. She published the following article describing a brief interdisciplinary intervention to train medical residents in trauma-informed primary care at a Veterans Affairs hospital. See attached article. "We generated a trauma- informed care curriculum involving five 1- hour didactic sessions, 10- minute group reflection regarding patient interactions prior to each didactic session, and optional patient care observation and feedback."

Re: TIHCER April Zoom meeting - 4/27/20, 3-4pm CST
@Courtney Barry excellent presentation so grateful this was recorded so I could attend post-hoc. Have you considered retooling review as either a scoping review or an evidence map? Sometimes for areas with less published that format flies better with journals. JGIM accepts narrative reviews and is daily high impact for a primary care journal. Just a thought. Best, Megan

Re: TIHCER June Zoom 2020
This is a very interesting presentation, and I look forward to reading Dr. Strait's article in The Permanente Journal. The subject has great relevance for the military because there is highly suggestive evidence that ACE Scores and their generally not-understood sequelae may be more common in a volunteer military that in a draft military. Attached as Item 3 is an article describing how routine ACE screening was carried out on a very large scale in one Kaiser Department, and its effects and...

Re: TIHCER June Zoom 2020
Thank you Dr. Felitti for your kind words and helpful attachments. Your paper is so important, especially in light of the military families I work with. Your words are inspiring and transformative: "We realized that asking , initially via an inert mechanism with later followup in the exam room, coupled with listening and implicitly accepting the person who had just shared his or her dark secrets, is a powerful form of doing ."

Re: TIHCER June Zoom 2020
Great presentation @Joshua S Strait - In VA we often cite this paper from Blosnich et al 2014: "Differences in the prevalence of ACEs were more pronounced among men by history of military service in the all-volunteer era than among men by history ofmilitary service in the draft era (Table 2)." Blosnich JR, Dichter ME, Cerulli C, Batten SV, Bossarte RM. Disparities in Adverse Childhood Experiences Among Individuals With a History of Military Service. JAMA Psychiatry. 2014;71(9):1041–1048.

Re: TIHCER June Zoom 2020
@Joshua S Strait my colleague Jodie Katon also did a cite we cite often (when we try to argue for TIC in VA) but it did not look at era of service in the same way. BRFSS data. Katon JG, Lehavot K, Simpson TL, et al. Adverse Childhood Experiences, Military Service, and Adult Health. Am J Prev Med . 2015;49(4):573-582. doi:10.1016/j.amepre.2015.03.020 "Results: Those with military service had more total ACE than civilians. Higher ACE was associated with poorer HRQOL among women (physical...

Re: TIHCER June Zoom 2020
These findings fit in with the fact that in Gulf War 1, which was virtually all air combat with only 170 hours of ground combat, there was a remarkably high prevalence of PTSD, but no prolonged ground combat for the causal explanation. Given the fact that GW1 was the first time an all-volunteer Army was in the field, I remembered my days as an Army doctor when I repeatedly saw that the Army was a powerful metaphor for a supportive family. The thought then crossed by mind that an...

Re: TIHCER ZOOM JULY 2020
Well done Drew and Mike. There is almost a total lack of attention to the pathophysiological impact of child hood trauma on adult physical as well as mental disease. The medical establishment has a tremendous inertia as you learned...from the clinic to the medical group to the professional society to medical schools and graduate training to clinical research there is a near ubiquitous resistance to considering the impact of childhood abuse and neglect on adults. A large CDC study showed that...

Re: TIHCER June 2023 Jorina Elbers HeartMath
Just watched this and loved it. I so appreciate Dr Elbers' point that stress hormone dysregulation underlies most of the health issues we docs see in our practices; this was the epiphany that hit me 5 years ago when I started screening for ACEs. I bought a Heart Math device a year ago and got into it for a while, but then stopped. I absolutely agree with its benefits and it's such a simple intervention. I'm going to start introducing it to the patients I serve and ask if they want to try it out.

Re: TIHCER Zoom January 2024 UME Competencies Celia Mizelle, Taylor Brown, Pat Rush
Good afternoon, May I make a suggestion? When sending out materials, spell out abbreviations for things like "TIHCER" and "UME". I have no idea what those stand for and am sure I am not alone.

Re: TIHCER Zoom January 2024 UME Competencies Celia Mizelle, Taylor Brown, Pat Rush
Thank you for this suggestion, Heidi. I send these out to our TIHCER (Trauma Informed Health Care Education and Research) group via Outlook invitations so there is limited space for that. Then we just repost on PACES Connection. But I realize that we need to do a better job of spelling things out, especially as we are broadening our audience. We will be more aware of this in the future!
