The DEI Shift's mission is to create a podcast series on diversity, equity, and inclusion (D.E.I.) in medicine that sparks discussion and provides practice-changing data and stories for a physician, student, allied health professional, and health care leader audience. Listeners will be able to gain useful information to improve their practices and environments, to gain empathy, cultural competency, and humility, and to learn more about emerging D.E.I. concepts. The DEI Shift will discuss issues related to gender, race, sexuality, religion, ability, socioeconomics, and so much more.

Co-Hosts: Dr. Maggie Kozman, Dr. DJ Gaines
Guests: Dr. Moira Szilagyi, Dr. Edward Machtinger
Editor/Assistant Producer: Joanna Jain
Production Assistants: Sanike Walimbe, Nilgoun Farhadi

Learning Objectives:

1. Define the term resilience in the context of trauma-informed care.
2. List 3 key individual resilience factors, and identify the symptoms of trauma that may result from impairment in those resilience factors.
3. Define secondary traumatic stress, and distinguish it from burnout.
4. Consider how health disparities are caused and exacerbated by trauma, and therefore necessitate a trauma-informed approach to address disparities.

Co-hosts’ Notice: Physician and provider are terms used interchangeably by many in the medical community. The DEI Shift podcast team endorses and supports the use of physician in place of provider where applicable as outlined in ACP policy.

[0:00] Introduction

• Introduction to co-hosts, guests, and Part 2

[01:17] ACE Screening and TRIADS Framework in Adults and Families

• Dr. Machtinger discusses the impact of and how it provides patients with an ability to reflect on their trauma and inform the physician as well.
• Dr. Machtinger describes the developed by child psychologist Alicia Lieberman.
• Dr. Machtinger discusses how his patients (many black and brown women with HIV and substance use disorder) and healthcare professionals in their clinic both have high ACE scores.
• He is working on a study that will be used to do extensive qualitative interviews with patients, families, staff, and community organizations, to understand their needs.
• Dr. Szilagyi discusses a wherein they found the importance of debriefing patients on their trauma, making real connections with them, and listening to their own reflections on how trauma has impacted them and what they wanted from their children’s pediatricians.

[10:27] Resilience and Individual Resilience Factors

• Dr. Kozman mentions Dr. Szilagyi’s book: and asks her to define “resilience”.
• Dr. Szilagyi talks about how resilience is a process that develops over time and is an interaction between genes, environment, and the care one receives.
• Dr. Szilagyi discusses research on resilience and how it is found the resilience can be biologically embedded.

[15:00] THREADS of Resilience, which can become FRAYED

• Dr. Szilagyi discusses co-author Dr. Heather Forkey’s THREADS acronym for individual resilience factors and details each component.
• She then discusses Dr. Forkey’s FRAYED acronym for symptoms that occur when one’s threads of resilience factors become frayed.

[22:00] Secondary Traumatic Stress/Compassion Fatigue

• Dr. Kozman defines Secondary Traumatic Stress (also called compassion fatigue) which refers to symptoms resulting from indirect exposure to traumatic experiences of others and leads to symptoms that mimic PTSD symptoms in the people who are taking care of trauma survivors.
• Secondary traumatic stress/compassion fatigue are different from burnout, but some of the same things can mitigate both phenomena.

[23:20] Trauma’s Fundamental Role in Health Disparities, and Need for Reform

• Dr. Machtinger describes how the differential distributions of trauma and protective factors are fundamental in the development of health disparities, and strongly believes that we cannot meaningfully address disparities until we first dramatically reform primary care and implement a trauma-informed approach.

[29:00] Take Home Points

• Dr. Machtinger and Dr. Szilagyi both discuss their final take home points. They stress that trauma-informed care allows us to build better understanding and connections with patients and leads to better health outcomes for them, as well as more joy and thriving for us in our professional lives and work.

[31:00] Closing Remarks

• Contact The DEI Shift if you would like to share about trauma-informed care projects you are implementing in your own health system!
