研究概览
简要总结
The goal of this study is to evaluate patient perception and preference in physician attire. Eligible subjects admitted to medical-surgical hospital unit will complete a survey expressing perceptions and preference regarding physician attire.
详细描述
Hospitalists (internal medicine physicians) work in one week rotations. Each hospitalist will serve as a control.
During one week rotation, the hospitalist will wear surgical scrubs throughout the rotation. At the end of the rotation (or prior to subject discharge, whichever occurs first), the hospitalist will ask subjects seen during that rotation to complete the survey regarding the hospitalist attire.
During a second week of rotation, the hospitalist will wear professional attire with a white coat throughout that rotation. At the end of the rotation (or prior to subject discharge, whichever occurs first), the hospitalist will ask subjects seen during that rotation to complete the survey regarding the hospitalist attire.

结局指标
主要结局
Patient Preference for Type of Physician Attire
时间窗: At the end of hospitalist rotation or prior to subject discharge, whichever occurs first, not to exceed one week from study enrollment.
Subjects will complete a one-time survey via paper or iPAD. The survey is based on the Modified Trust in Physician Scale: A Measure to Assess Interpersonal Trust in Patient Physician Relationships with answers provided on a 5 point Likert Scale where 1 means strongly disagree, 2 means disagree, 3 is neutral, 4 means agree and 5 means strongly agree. The total score will reflect patient preference for traditional physician attire (street clothes and white coat) or casual physician attire (surgical scrubs). A high score would reflect a favorable response for the physician wearing traditional attire.
