Join us in this episode as we sit down with Najat Fadlallah, a pediatric resident in Lebanon, to discuss the untapped potential of health care data and personal experiences in medical research. We’ll explore how health care professionals can use their unique access to vulnerable moments in patients’ lives to improve patient care and outcomes and the importance of artistic and literary reflections of these experiences in addressing the burnout epidemic among medical professionals. Tune in to gain valuable insights and practical tips for making the most of these invaluable resources.

Najat Fadlallah is a pediatric resident in Lebanon.

She shares her story and discusses her KevinMD article, “The hidden gems of health care: Unlocking the potential of narrative medicine.”

The Podcast by KevinMD is brought to you by the Nuance Dragon Ambient eXperience.

With so many demands on their time, physicians today report record levels of burnout. Burnout is caused by many factors, one of which is clinical documentation. Studies indicate physicians spend two hours documenting care for every hour spent with patients.

At Nuance, we are committed to helping physicians do what you love – care for patients – and spend less time on clinical documentation. The Nuance Dragon Ambient eXperience, or DAX for short, is an AI-powered, ambient clinical intelligence solution that automatically captures patient encounters securely and accurately at the point of care. Physicians who use DAX have reported a 50 percent decrease in documentation time and a 70 percent reduction in feelings of burnout, and 83 percent of patients say their physician is more personable and conversational.

Rediscover the joy of medicine with clinical documentation that writes itself, all within the EHR.
