| Core Tip |
Quality care remains relatively low in patients admitted to hospital with cirrhosis. Diagnostic paracentesis in patients with ascites has been identified as a target to improve quality in these patients. We developed and administered an educational intervention focused on paracentesis to medical residents caring for patients with cirrhosis using time-based randomization. After adjustment for model for end-stage liver disease-Na score, age and gender, patients in the intervention group had reduced 30-d readmissions. As health care costs rise, our results justify further study into the use of medical education to improve the delivery of quality care in patients with cirrhosis. |
