ARMY PHYSICIANS OVERVIEW
As an Army physician you’ll get to practice in an environment without the distractions
of the “business” side of the profession. That’s because you’ll practice medicine in
one of the few places in the world where comprehensive patient care is the top
priority. Insurance companies never dictate the course of treatment – Army
physicians do. And, unlike the private sector, there are no malpractice insurance
premiums, staffing issues or overhead costs for you to worry about.

WELCOME!
Dear Colleague,
We are proud to welcome you to the New England Regional Meeting of the Society for Academic
Emergency Medicine (SAEM). Now in our 23rd year, this meeting is the primary forum for presenting original
emergency medicine research in the New England area.
The New England Regional Meeting is sponsored by the New England Research Directors (NERDs)
committee whose membership is listed below. This year’s meeting was organized by Boston Medical Center.
We’d like to extend our gratitude to the people who have helped to make this meeting happen: our
coordinator, Amy Michaluk, the SAEM team, the NERDS committee members; as well as the many volunteers
and session moderators. Your time and efforts are enormously appreciated.
Sincerely,

MEETING INFORMATION
SAEM MISSION
The Society for Academic Emergency Medicine (SAEM) is dedicated to the improvement of care of the
acutely ill and injured patient by improving research and education. To achieve this mission, SAEM influences
health policy through forums, publications, interorganizational collaboration, policy development, and
consultation services for physicians, teachers, researchers, and students. SAEM represents excellence and
leadership in academic emergency medicine, and its values include idealism and quality in all endeavors,
nurturing and camaraderie and diversity among members, as well as creative and symbiotic interactions with
other organizations.
The mission of SAEM is to lead the advancement of academic emergency medicine through education and
research, advocacy and professional development.
MEETING OBJECTIVES
In keeping with the mission of SAEM, the New England Regional Meeting aims to provide emergency medicine
trainees and faculty the opportunity to present their original research in a forum that will foster development
and productivity of new researchers in emergency medicine.
As a result of participating in this activity, participants should be able to:
1. apply both education and research findings to your emergency medicine practice;
2. apply key statistical indicators in analyzing research and educational results;
3. utilize acceptable research and educational methods and study designs in the development of
research projects;
4. realize the details of the framework for Evidence-Based Medicine (EBM) so that intended practice
improvements are vetted through this prism; and
5. obtain the necessary education, research, and administrative tools needed to advance within the
academic emergency medicine sector.
CME
This activity has been planned and implemented in accordance with the accreditation requirements and
policies of the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) through the joint providership
of the University of Cincinnati and the Society for Academic Emergency Medicine. The University of Cincinnati is
accredited by the ACCME to provide continuing medical education for physicians.
The University of Cincinnati designates this live activity for a maximum of 5.75 AMA PRA Category 1 Credit™.
Physicians should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.
Certificates of Completion:
The University of Cincinnati will issue CME Certificates of Completion to the e-mail address provided with your
registration, for those attendees who have checked in at the registration desk.

WELCOME ANNOUNCEMENTS (8:00 – 8:25 AM)
Location: Ballroom
8:00 – 8:05 “Welcome from the New England Research Directors (NERDS)”
Patricia Mitchell, RN
NERDS Co-Chair
Patricia Mitchell, RN is the
Director of Research Operations
for the Department of
Emergency Medicine at Boston
Medical Center. She is an
Assistant Research Professor at Boston University
School of Medicine. She received her nursing
degree from Boston City Hospital School of Nursing.
She has been a faculty member in the Department
of Emergency Medicine since 1998. She has played
a leadership role in many important research studies
at Boston City Hospital and Boston Medical Center
that have included novel technologies to aide in
the diagnosis of cardiac ischemia, ED-SBIRT, and ED
point of care testing studies in infectious diseases.
She has served as Co-PI and Co-I on many NIH,
industry and foundation funded projects and is
currently the Co-PI of a Health Policy Commission
Health Care Innovation Program, “High Touch High
Trust,” which utilizes community health advocates to
engage high ED utilizers in order to address social
determinants of health with a goal of decreasing ED
visits. She serves as Program Director for a NIH/NIDA-
funded multicenter clinical trial: “Intervention to
Increase Naloxone Engagement and Distribution in
community Pharmacies: A 4 state randomized
clinical trial.” She is a long-standing member of
SAEM and NERDS.
Elissa M. Schechter-Perkins MD,
MPH, DTMH
NERDS Co-Chair
Elissa M. Schechter-Perkins MD,
MPH, DTMH is the Vice Chair of
Emergency Medicine Research
at Boston Medical Center and
the Boston University School of Medicine. After she
finished her Emergency Medicine training at Yale
(which was longer ago than she likes to admit), she
completed a fellowship in International Emergency
Medicine, and received her MPH as well as her
diploma of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene. She has
been working in the Emergency Department at
Boston Medical Center since 2008, and joined the
NERDS committee in 2017. Her academic area of
interest focuses on the intersection of infectious
diseases, public health, and the Emergency
Department. She has developed programs and
evaluated methods to enhance both Emergency
Department and hospital-wide screening for
infectious diseases that have public health
consequences, including HIV, HCV, MRSA, and
influenza. Her personal time is devoted to
chauffeuring her mini-ME’s to their ever expanding,
can’t miss extra-curricular activities, loving on her
puppy, mountain-biking, and competing in
triathlons/obstacle/running races in a futile attempt
to make people think she is more athletic than she
actually is.
8:05 – 8:25 “Welcome from the Society for Academic Emergency Medicine (SAEM)”
Ali S. Raja, MD, MBA, MPH
