The Journal of Hospital Medicine (JHM) is the premier peer-reviewed publication for the specialty of Hospital Medicine, and is dedicated to publishing evidence that will transform care of the hospitalized patient. JHM advances excellence in Hospital Medicine clinical care and research through the dissemination of peer-reviewed studies, evidence-based clinical care updates and reviews, and rigorous evaluations of approaches to improve the quality, safety, and value of care for hospitalized adults and children. Broad areas of interest include 1) Treatments for common inpatient conditions (such as pneumonia, COPD, sepsis, thromboembolism, or asthma); 2) Approaches to improving perioperative care; 3) Improving care for hospitalized patients with geriatric or pediatric vulnerabilities (such as mobility problems, or those with complex longitudinal care); 4) Evaluation of innovative health delivery system or educational models; 5) Approaches to improving the quality, safety, and value of healthcare across the acute and post-acute continuum of care; and 6) Evaluation of policy and payment changes that affect hospital and post-acute care. Papers with the highest likelihood of publication use robust research methods to examine questions of importance to the field of adult or pediatric Hospital Medicine, and produce results that will influence clinical practice or healthcare policy.
