Clinical Innovations
Standardized
Analgesia Protocol
for Renal Colic in
the DHMC
Emergency
Working with ED physicians, we created a standard approach to pain management
for patients with kidney stone related pain. This led to more rapid pain control than
traditional approaches and our data were published in a peer-reviewed journal.

Department.
Standardized
Pathway for High
Risk Bladder
Cancer
In conjunction with medical oncology, urology and radiology, DHMC urology
created an internal pathway to allow patients with high risk bladder cancer to have
staging and treatment recommendations delivered within 2 weeks of contacting
DHMC for an appointment.
Standardized
pathway and
follow-up for
nephrolithiasis
From 2013 to the present, I have worked with my colleagues in the BIDMC ED to
standardize the evaluation, management and subsequent follow-up of patients
presenting to the ED with nephrolithiasis.
Standardized
pathway and
follow-up for
hematuria
Beginning in the Fall of 2013, the BIDMC ED will roll out a clinical and follow up
pathway to help standardize the management and follow-up of hematuria in the
BIDMC ED.
