What started as a cluster of patients with mysterious respiratory illness in Wuhan, China, December 2019, was later determined to be coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). The pathogen severe acute syndrome 2 (SARS-CoV-2), novel Betacoronavirus, subsequently isolated the causative agent. SARS-CoV-2 is transmitted by droplets and fomites presents clinically fever, fatigue, myalgias, conjunctivitis, anosmia, dysgeusia, sore throat, nasal congestion, cough, dyspnea, nausea, vomiting, and/or...
The feedback received was widely positive, with 85% (n = 134) of respondents finding the medical scenarios an adequate refresher; 15% noted they would have found additional useful.In situ assessment by faculty members suggested improvement candidates' abilities and confidence for redeployment, although this not formally evaluated.Sessions acted as formative assessments to signpost adult learners areas that required further study, were given access NHS approved e-learning package.As trainers,...
Telehealth has the potential to significantly change specialty of emergency medicine (EM) and rapidly expanded in EM during COVID pandemic; however, it is unclear how should intersect with telehealth. The field lacks a unified research agenda priorities for scientific questions on telehealth EM.
Abstract Background Telehealth is an integral part of modern care delivery. Accordingly, accrediting bodies have recognized the importance telehealth in trainee education. In 2021, Association American Medical Colleges (AAMC) published a report identifying learner core competencies six domains: patient safety and appropriate use, access equity, communication, data collection assessment, ethical practices legal requirements, technology for telehealth. We present here Fundamentals Resource...
Students may have different learning styles. It is unclear, however, whether tailoring instructional methods for a student's preferred style improves educational outcomes when teaching procedures. The authors sought to examine self-perceived improved the acquisition of intravenous (IV) catheter placement skills. hypothesized that matching medical with instructor's would increase success placing an IV catheter. Using VARK model (i.e., visual [V], auditory [A], read/write [R] and kinesthetic...
Virtual care, introduced previously as a replacement for in-person visits, is now being integrated into clinical care delivery models to complement visits. The COVID-19 pandemic sped up this process. rapid uptake of virtual at the start prevented educators from taking deliberate steps design foundational elements related learning environment, including workflow, competencies, and assessment methods. Educators must pursue an informed purposeful approach curriculum implement in environment....
COVID 19 struck us all like a bolt of lightning and for the past 10 months, it has tested our resilience, agility, creativity, adaptability in aspects lives work. Simulation centers simulation-based educational programs have not been spared. Rather than wait pandemic to be over before commencing operations training, we actively looking at programs, reviewing alternative methods such as e-learning, use virtual learning platforms, decentralization training using situ simulation (ISS) modeling,...
Introduction Given the rapid expansion of telehealth (TH), there is an emerging need for trained professionals who can effectively deliver TH services. As no formal training program residents, Department Emergency Medicine (DEM) at Thomas Jefferson University (TJU) developed a pilot senior post-graduate-year three (PGY-3) residents that exposed them to practices. The objective study was determine feasibility developing resident-led, post-Emergency-Department (ED) visit follow-up as...

Background The COVID-19 pandemic has led to substantial changes in the delivery of healthcare and medical education. Little is known about how altered students' perceptions regard career choice. Methods authors developed implemented a multi-center survey that evaluated preferred choice before during coronavirus pandemic, as well influence pandemic-related factors on was distributed all levels students (MS) at nine schools across country from November 2020 January 2021 represented convenience...
Purpose Anatomy is a challenging course in medical school, part because of the vast number facts that must be memorized. Current literature suggests value spaced repetition learning factual information, and online tools such as Anki flashcards have been developed to facilitate it. The purpose this study investigate role curriculum‐specific tool for first year students anatomy. Methods A set was created anatomy thread Block 1 (back, pectoral, shoulder, vertebral regions) 3A (cardiac &...
To define the emotional intelligence (EI) profile of emergency medicine (EM) residents, and identify resident EI strengths weaknesses.First-, second-, third-year residents (post-graduate years [PGY] 1, 2, 3, respectively) Thomas Jefferson University Hospital's EM Program completed Emotional Quotient Inventory (EQ-i 2.0), a validated instrument offered by Multi-Health Systems. Reported scores included total mean EI, 5 composite scores, 15 subscales EI. Scores are reported as means with 95%...
Introduction: Medical students pursuing an emergency medicine (EM) residency are advised to obtain at least two Standardized Letters of Evaluation (SLOE). Students often complete one rotation their home institution and “away” a program separate from institution. The SLOE was introduced as objective evaluation tool. aim this study determine whether there difference in scores between away SLOEs.Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the SLOEs all applicants urban, academic EM program. For each...

The components of each stage have similarities as well differences, which make unique in its own right. As the film-making and movie industry may much we can learn from, some these will be covered under different sections paper, for example, "Writing Powerful Narratives," depiction emotional elements, specific industry-driven developments "cultural considerations" both. For medical simulation simulation-based education, corresponding stages are follows:...
