PEDIATRIC PULMONARY FELLOWSHIP PROGRAM

Message from the Program Director:

Welcome to the Pediatric Pulmonary Fellowship Program at The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston(ACGME Program#3304821056). Thank you for your interest and taking the time from your busy schedule to read about our program.

您选择的培训计划在研究金期间的知识和临床技能发展中不可或缺,并最终帮助指导您在儿科肺医学方面的职业道路。我们的计划专注于您作为个人,并定制您的教育之旅,以最适合您的需求和愿望。我们根据需要评估研究员的表现以及他们的职业兴趣和目标来调整教育课程。该教师们深深地致力于培训研究员,并积极参与,支持和指导研究员的教育追求。作为我们对同胞教育的奉献的证明,我们有一个100% board pass rate on first attempt for全部fellows who have graduated from our program.

We offer a balanced curriculum in patient-centered care, comprehensive teaching, and innovative research opportunities. Our program prepares you to care for a diverse patient population with a wide variety of respiratory disorders in both a large metropolitan hospital (Children’s Memorial Hermann Hospital) and a sizeable multispecialty clinic practice. In addition to the fellow’s weekly continuity clinic, our curriculum sets aside 1 clinic a month for the fellows to broaden their exposure to special patient subsets by attending a pediatric pulmonary subspecialty clinic of their choice:

  • Aerodigestive clinic
  • 支气管肺发育不良诊所
  • Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia (CDH) clinic
  • MD安德森肺诊所
  • 小儿复杂护理诊所
  • 小儿睡眠诊所
  • 后诊所
  • 原发性睫状运动障碍(PCD)诊所
  • 肺动脉高压诊所
  • 镰状细胞肺部肺诊所

In addition to in-person clinic visits, we provide innovative telehealth visits on selected patients with complex medical conditions by using a home electronic health device (TYTO) equipped with a thermometer, otoscope, stethoscope and tongue depressor adapters.

研究员还学习诊断工具的原理和利用以及如何解释研究结果

  • advanced pulmonary technologies
  • complete pulmonary function tests
  • exercise bronchoprovocation studies
  • cardiopulmonary exercise testing
  • 脉冲振荡
  • lung clearance index device
  • 鼻氮氧化物测试
  • 用于高速视频显微镜分析(HSVMA)的睫状活检
  • laryngoscopy and bronchoscopy in clinic and hospital setting.

借助我们计划中所有独特的学习机会和工具,研究员能够为患者真正提供全面的呼吸护理。

Our program provides a strong foundation in the development of scholarly activities. Through the Clinical Research Curriculum, the fellows learn the basics of epidemiology, biostatistics, literature appraisal, clinical trial design, etc. Because our faculty has multiple grant-funded research projects, fellows have the option to join a current project, develop a subsidiary proposal, or design their own project. With faculty mentorship, the fellow develops a scholarly project with the goal of presenting at local and national conferences and producing a manuscript for publication. UT offers a grant writing course for fellows interested in pursuing an academic career. Fellows interested in a career in medical education may enhance their teaching skills via the UT Physician Educator Program. In order to improve their understanding of the medicolegal and business aspects of medical care, fellows may attend the Health Care Management course through the University of Houston.

我们适度的计划规模使教师可以专注,自定义和提高每个人的教育努力质量。因此,教师和研究员相互尊重,并经常在“工作家庭”环境中发展友情。作为计划主任,我是您的教育者,导师和倡导者。我的职责是为您提供最好的培训,以便您成为世界一流的小儿肺临床医生,教育家和科学家。

除我们的培训计划外,休斯顿还有许多属性,这些属性有助于健康的工作与生活平衡。作为4Th休斯顿在美国最大的城市提供相对较低的生活成本,大量的多元文化食品和活动,多个体育场所,丰富的公园以及绿色/室外空间以及许多其他全年活动。休斯顿多样化的人口也是一个丰富的培训场所,旨在欣赏社会决定因素的影响,并提供各种常见和罕见的肺部疾病。

无论您选择学术职业还是私人执业,我们的计划都准备好应对挑战,并在您的团契培训期间开始自己的职业道路。我们鼓励您申请休斯敦德克萨斯大学健康科学中心(ACGME计划#3304821056)。感谢您考虑我们的计划。请联系我们,如果您有任何疑问。
