In this episode, we dive into the rapidly evolving world of ambient listening AI in healthcare. From outpatient clinics to inpatient wards and operating rooms, this technology is reshaping how care is delivered, documented, and experienced. We explore how ambient listening AI is improving clinic flow by streamlining documentation and reducing interruptions, allowing clinicians to stay more present with their patients. The technology is increasingly adaptive to individual provider styles, learning preferences and workflows to deliver more personalized support. Plus, we share practical tips for new users to get the most out of their ambient listening AI systems from day one. Join us as we hear from experts on the front lines and debate the future of ambient listening AI in medicine—where the walls really do have ears, but for all the right reasons.

In this episode of the SHEA Podcast, host Dr. Jonathan Ryder, Assistant Professor in the Division of Infectious Diseases at the University of Nebraska Medical Center, speaks with Dr. Milner Staub, Assistant Professor of Medicine in the Division of Infectious Diseases at Vanderbilt University Medical Center. Their conversation explores practical, high-impact strategies for improving antimicrobial stewardship in outpatient and ambulatory care settings. With the majority of antibiotic prescribing occurring outside of hospitals, outpatient stewardship is a critical area for reducing unnecessary antibiotic use and improving patient outcomes. Dr. Staub shares insights into her work and research, which focus on helping providers and patients optimize antibiotic prescribing in ambulatory settings. She highlights stewardship interventions that are relatively easy to implement but offer strong returns on investment. A significant part of the discussion centers around the persistent impact of penicillin allergy labels and how outpatient settings can better address this issue. Dr. Staub also discusses antibiotic overuse for acute uncomplicated bronchitis (AUB), offering recommendations for interventions to reduce inappropriate prescribing. The episode concludes with a look ahead at where more research is needed to test assumptions and develop new stewardship strategies. Listeners are encouraged to explore SHEA's free CDC-supported Penicillin Allergy Delabeling Course for more information. Thank you for tuning in to the SHEA Podcast.

Outpatient CDI is not a traditional discipline—and so it stands to reason that its practitioners don't always hail from traditional backgrounds. One such person is Glenda Bocskovits. I'd call her a former transcriptionist, but she still practices that craft with the Mayo Clinic. But Glenda has since expanded her career into cutting edge practice as an outpatient CDI specialist with Catholic Health. We get into Glenda's unique career path, the obstacles of breaking into CDI as a non-clinician, and address the eternal question: What is the ROI of OP CDI? We cover the following topics:  Transcription: That's still done? It is (hear why). The ROI of outpatient CDI  Catholic Health's thorough process of OP CDI chart review: Prospective, current/pre-bill, and retrospective Common conditions requiring clarification and what continues to trip up providers A day in the life of: What Glenda's job entails Obstacles of getting into CDI as a non-nurse and strategies for landing elusive interviews Glenda's career motivations and song selection for the Off the Record Spotify playlist

Outpatient Low-Dose Initiation of Buprenorphine for People Using Fentanyl JAMA Network Open The accumulation of fentanyl in fat is likely responsible for the risk of precipitated withdrawal when buprenorphine is initiated. Low dose initiation (LDI) of buprenorphine attempts to minimize this risk. This retrospective study included 126 individuals making 175 LDI attempts in an outpatient setting. Patients chose either a 4 day or 7 day LDI protocol with buprenorphine monoproduct. Both protocols begin with buprenorphine 0.5mg, increasing to 8mg tid. Overall LDI was successful in 34% of attempts (with no difference between the protocols) and one month retention on buprenorphine was 21%. Repeated LDI attempts were less likely to be successful (second attempt aOR 0.3). Unhoused people had lower odds of success (OR 0.4). The authors conclude that people with OUD using fentanyl attempting outpatient LDI of buprenorphine had low odds of success.   Read this issue of the ASAM Weekly Subscribe to the ASAM Weekly Visit ASAM
