All In: A Casino-Themed Emergency Medicine Conference Day
DOI: https://doi.org/10.5070/M5.52394By the end of this educational intervention, participants will be able to: 1) demonstrate airway management skills through simulation, including equipment setup and timely interventions for both adult and pediatric cases, 2) interpret various electrocardiograms (EKGs) in high-pressure scenarios, 3) analyze cases and apply evidence-based management in various rapid-response scenarios, 4) demonstrate rapid recall of EM knowledge by answering board-style trivia questions, and 5) demonstrate increased confidence in team-based decision-making, effective communication under pressure, and leadership in high-stress emergency situations.
The Challenge of Critical Feedback: A Simulation-based Advanced Residents as Teachers Module
DOI: https://doi.org/10.5070/M5.52392The purpose of this module was to provide a safe learning environment for residents to practice giving critical feedback to medical students. By the end of the session, residents will be able to 1) identify gaps in student proficiency through analysis of a simulated student’s clinical performance as demonstrated by a simulated case presentation, 2) formulate specific feedback for student learners to target identified gaps, and 3) apply a newly learned strategy for providing feedback to a “student” during two simulation-based communication cases.
The Three Breath Method: Teaching Coping Mechanisms for Processing Patient Death
DOI: https://doi.org/10.5070/M5.53087After watching the video, proposed viewers should be able to: 1) describe the Three-Breath technique, and its potential impact on healthcare providers' ability to manage stress and process patient death, 2) evaluate the effectiveness of the Three-Breath guided meditation in improving emotional reconciliation and reducing stress for emergency medicine physicians, and 3) demonstrate the Three-Breath technique and implement it into their own practice.
PRIMER: Premedical Introduction to Mentored Emergency Research: Connecting Undergraduate Assistants and Emergency Medicine Residents in a Community Hospital Setting
DOI: https://doi.org/10.5070/M5.52386The purpose of this project is to design a didactic training to provide undergraduate research assistants the necessary training to enhance resident research projects in the emergency department.
Enhancing Relationship-Centered Communication and Feedback in Emergency Medicine Through Applied Improvisation (EM-PROV)
DOI: https://doi.org/10.5070/M5.52345By the end of this session, learners will be able to improve relationship-centered communication (RCC): 1) define “yes, and” and its role in RCC, and 2) demonstrate active listening and responsiveness using improvisational techniques such as “yes, and,” gift-giving, establishing scene, and callbacks. They will also be able to improve learner feedback: 1) define “yes, and” and its role in learner feedback, 2) review three evidence-based feedback models through a “yes, and” lens, and 3) practice improv techniques and deliver structured feedback in real-time peer scenarios using improvisational techniques such as “yes, and,” gift-giving, establishing scenes, and callbacks.
Pre-Clinical Case Competition to Assess Confidence in Responding to Select Out-Of-Hospital Medical Emergencies
DOI: https://doi.org/10.5070/M5.52198By the end of this activity, learners will be able to: 1) demonstrate the application of skills in real-life first responder scenarios, including suspected opioid overdose, cardiac arrest, and anaphylaxis; 2) apply knowledge of scene safety and the role of the first responder in various situations; and 3) assess the challenges while applying the skills necessary for collaborative work within a medical team.
Cognitive Errors and Debiasing
DOI: https://doi.org/10.21980/J84W96By the end of this lecture, learners should be able to, 1) Define dual process theory, 2) identify common cognitive biases, 3) recognize high-risk situations for cognitive errors, and 3) discuss debiasing strategies and integrate one strategy into your workflow.
Do’s and Don’ts of Taking Care of Deaf Patients
DOI: https://doi.org/10.21980/J8336TBy the end of this didactic, the learner will demonstrate increased comfort with communication with DHH patients via improved awareness of communication pitfalls and through approaches to communicating with DHH patients in a limited capacity, such as without timely access to interpreters or in an environment where staff are unfamiliar with DHH patients. An in-depth assessment of cultural awareness and description of proper communication techniques, necessary equipment, or interpreter working relationships is beyond the scope of this project.
