PY - 2019 T2 - OB/GYN Hospital Medicine: Principles and Practice AB - OB/GYN hospitalists have mirrored the evolution of the first general hospitalists—the internal medicine and family practice physicians who focused their clinical care on the hospitalized patient in the early and mid-1990s. Wachter coined the term in an article published in August 19961 and the earliest form of the eventual Society of Hospitalist Medicine (SHM) met in April 1997. The SHM definition of general hospitalist was: “A physician who specializes in the practice of hospital medicine.” SN - PB - McGraw-Hill Education CY - New York, NY Y2 - 2024/10/08 UR - obgyn.mhmedical.com/content.aspx?aid=1159980493 ER -
