Bringing trainee wellness to the forefront
Researching the impact of reflection in medical training
Before the spread of COVID-19, and increasingly during the pandemic, Ilana Krumm, MD, noticed a burgeoning focus on wellness for trainees and how to combat burnout in the medical space.
But Dr. Krumm also noticed that most of the existing programs focused on the individual level, rather than the system level. The onus was on the trainees to manage their wellness and burnout.
“I wanted to look at something that could be instituted at a systems level as opposed to putting all the burden of this wellness on the resident, as someone who already has a huge burden of work, stress, and time constraints as they try to learn their discipline,” Dr. Krumm said. “Asking them to meditate on their own time seemed very impractical.”
Eager to research this idea, Dr. Krumm applied for the CHEST Research Grant in Medical Education.
“The fact that CHEST is willing to support medical education research is really important for all those trying to better the educational environment. Although there’s a movement toward more support for medical education research and more recognition of its value, I think the fact that CHEST has already done so has helped advance the field and the support for the field as a whole,” Dr. Krumm said.
“Having the support from a reputable institution like CHEST inherently gave the work that I was doing value,” Dr. Krumm said. “It gave folks an understanding that this research in medical education has importance.”
Dr. Krumm’s project focused on the monthly Reflection Rounds between the ICU, palliative care, and chaplaincy staff that were held at the Seattle VA Medical Center, where residents could discuss the challenges of caring for critically ill patients during a protected time. While similar interventions around death and dying have been shown to help residents reduce burnout in medical intensive care rotations, it was unknown which aspects of these sessions would be most effective.
Participant interviews were conducted before and after the residents’ monthly sessions to understand the impact these sessions had on wellness and burnout levels.
“With the grant funding from CHEST, our team was able to purchase the recording equipment, transcription, and software necessary to complete a thorough qualitative research project, which greatly accelerated the project timeline,” she said.
Through these interviews, Dr. Krumm’s team identified three key themes that shed light on the impact of Reflection Rounds.
1. Cultural precedent
Participants were encouraged to participate as little or as much as they wanted during the session. Despite some residents being less vocal during these discussions, every resident agreed that this type of session set an important cultural precedent in their program and acknowledged the value of a program that encouraged space for decompression and reflection.
2. Shared experiences
During this project, many residents experienced an increased sense of isolation, as COVID-19 precautions were stricter in the ICU. Having this protected time together allowed residents to discover their shared experiences and find comfort in them while feeling supported.
“A lot of residents commented that it was nice to know that others were going through this as well or that they were also finding this particular instance difficult,” Dr. Krumm said.
3. Ritual
At the opening of each hour-long session, participants were invited to light a candle and say aloud or think to themselves the name of a patient they had lost, had a hard time with, or cared for during their time in the ICU.
“Every single person pointed to that moment as meaningful and impactful,” Dr. Krumm said.
This ritual gave the residents time to center and have a common focus with their peers to think about patient stories that they were carrying with them.
“Maybe just incorporating a small moment like that, a point of reflection, could potentially have a big impact on the weight we carry as providers who care for [patients who are] critically ill,” Dr. Krumm said. “What I’ve learned from this project will make me a better leader in the ICU, not only in taking care of critically ill individuals but also in taking care of the team doing that work.”
Dr. Krumm credits the CHEST grant funding and subsequent research project with helping her join a highly competitive fellowship program at the University of California San Francisco, where she can continue to conduct research in the field of medical education.
“I am working closely with medical education faculty and peers to design new research studies and further establish myself in the field of medical education, leading to my ultimate goal of becoming a program director at a strong med-ed-focused program.”

Add hands-on and interactive learning opportunities to your CHEST 2023 schedule
Explore the many ticketed sessions, and sign up early in case they sell out.
Simulation sessions
If you’re looking to gain hands-on exposure to equipment and tools that may not be available at your home institution, look no further than these simulation sessions. Choose from 25 different sessions offering firsthand experience with procedures relevant to your clinical practice.
“It’s a great opportunity to teach higher stakes procedures in a very low stakes environment where everybody’s comfortable and everybody’s learning from each other,” said Live Learning Subcommittee Chair, Nicholas Pastis, MD, FCCP.
CHEST 2023 simulation sessions will address clinical topics, including endobronchial ultrasound, cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET), intubation and cricothyrotomy, bronchoscopy management, and more. These sessions are taught by experts who use these real-world strategies in their daily practice.
CHEST 2022 attendee, Weston Bowker, MD, found value in the simulation courses he was able to attend in Nashville.
“It’s fantastic just to work with some of the leading experts in the field, especially from an interventional pulmonology standpoint. And, you truly get a different experience than maybe what your home institution offers,” he said.
Problem-based learning sessions
Exercise your critical thinking skills by working to resolve real-world clinical problems during these small group sessions. Refine your expertise on topics like lung cancer screening and staging, biologics in asthma, pneumonia, and more.
“Problem-based learning courses take a clinical problem or case study that is somewhat controversial to create a learning environment where the problem itself drives the learning with participants,” said CHEST 2023 Scientific Program Committee Chair, Aneesa Das, MD, FCCP. “These are small group sessions where learners can actively participate and collaborate to discuss various perspectives on the issue and work toward potential solutions.”
This year’s problem-based learning courses were chosen based on common controversies in chest medicine and current hot topics in medicine.
Dr. Das is excited for the Using CPET to Solve Your Difficult Cases course. “Cardiopulmonary exercise tests can sometimes be difficult even for seasoned physicians. This is always an amazing problem-based learning topic,” she added.
Meet the Professor sessions
Connect with leading chest medicine experts during these limited-capacity discussions capped at 24 registrants per session. Meet the Professor attendees will have the opportunity to engage in stimulating conversations on bronchiectasis, central airway obstructions, obesity hypoventilation, and sublobar resection.
“Meet the Professor sessions are a unique opportunity to interact and learn from a leader in the field in a very small group setting on a high-yield topic,” said Dr. Das. “These sessions allow for a learning environment that is personalized and intimate.”

These sessions are taught by experts who use these real-world strategies in their daily practice.<br/><br/>CHEST 2022 attendee, Weston Bowker, MD, found value in the simulation courses he was able to attend in Nashville. <br/><br/>“It’s fantastic just to work with some of the leading experts in the field, especially from an interventional pulmonology standpoint. And, you truly get a different experience than maybe what your home institution offers,” he said.<br/><br/></p> <h2>Problem-based learning sessions</h2> <p>Exercise your critical thinking skills by working to resolve real-world clinical problems during these small group sessions.

This is always an amazing problem-based learning topic,” she added.<br/><br/></p> <h2>Meet the Professor sessions</h2> <p>Connect with leading chest medicine experts during these limited-capacity discussions capped at 24 registrants per session.

CHEST 2023 Master Classes offer advanced learning from big names in chest medicine
Maximize your learning experiences at CHEST 2023 (October 8-11 in Hawai’i) by attending a Master Class. Taking place before and after the annual meeting, these advanced-level courses on October 7, 12, and 13 will give you a deep dive into specific clinical areas with the guidance of distinguished faculty.
Faculty will explore complex topics, and you will have the opportunity to participate in intensive case-based discussions with master clinicians.
“At CHEST, we’re always looking for ways to tailor the learning experience for the folks who come to the annual meeting. These Master Classes will be particularly useful for seasoned providers who are looking for a challenging education experience,” said Education Committee Chair, Amy E. Morris, MD, FCCP.
These classes will have some didactic elements, but a lot of time will be spent reviewing challenging cases that aren’t easily addressed by guidelines or a quick read of the literature and will go beyond what’s easily found online.
“Master Classes will focus on deeper-dive learning, in-depth pathophysiology and research, and conversational, interactive discussions,” Dr. Morris said.
She encourages everyone to seize the opportunity to attend these classes taught by “true masters of clinical medicine” in Hawai’i after years of strictly virtual learning that didn’t allow for as much interactivity.
“That’s why we’re in medicine – to learn from each other. This is an opportunity not just to learn facts or new ways of doing things, but a chance to interact on a personal level with providers from around the globe and master clinicians who are not always available to us in person,” she said. “In an increasingly digital world, an opportunity like this is harder to come by these days.”
Make the most of your trip to Hawai’i with advanced learning taught by highly regarded speakers. Take a look at the Master Classes available to you this year, and add a course to your meeting registration.
