TIDBIT TUESDAY! Types of Medical Research By Shelene Giles, CEO FIG Education Evidence-Based Medicine • Clinical & scientific evidence • Clinical experience & expertise • Patient’s values, needs & choices Evidence-based medicine is the practice that relies on scientific evidence for guidance and decision making in the medical community. An evidence-based practice relies on the partnership of hard scientific evidence, clinical expertise, and the individual patients’ needs and choices. This results in the best patient outcomes. Evidence-based medicine integrates clinical experience and patient values with the best available research information. It is a movement that aims to increase the use of high-quality clinical research in clinical decision making. Evidence-based medicine requires new skills of the clinician, including efficient literature searching, and the application of formal rules of evidence in evaluating the clinical literature. The practice of evidence-based medicine is a process of lifelong, self-directed, problem-based learning in which caring for one’s own patients creates the need for clinically relevant information about the diagnosis, prognosis, therapy, and other clinical and health care issues. #nurse #ot #pt #Legalnurseconsultant #Casemanagement

SCO WELCOMES APOLOGY FROM THE CANADIAN MEDICAL ASSOCIATION   The Canadian Medical Association made a long overdue public apology for past harms to Indigenous people inflicted by medical professionals.   “While we welcome this apology, it still does little to repair the decades of damage done to our peoples by a discriminatory system and the people within it,” stated SCO Grand Chief Jerry Daniels. “My sincere hope is the CMA will build on this day, and that we can finally all work together to close the well documented 11 year and growing gap in life expectancy between First Nation citizens and all others living in what is now known as Manitoba.”   Researchers found the CMA used outdated, racist terms in its communications. CMA staff also concluded that some doctors participated in or failed to stop medical experiments on First Nation patients, and forced sterilizations of First Nation women as well as the apprehension of First Nation newborns at hospitals.   This apology is the second by a Canadian medical organization in as many years. The College of Physicians and Surgeons of Manitoba apologized in January of last year for failing to adequately address Indigenous-specific racism by medical practitioners, and for the intergenerational trauma, suffering, poor health outcomes, and death that this has caused.   “It’s these very reasons that have spurred us into action when it comes to transforming health care deliver for our peoples,” added Grand Chief Daniels. “We all need to work collaboratively and establish a new health care model where First Nations leadership and health care professionals have increased self-administration, self-determination, and self-governance authority. Then and only then will we create the best possible outcomes for our Anishinaabe and Dakota citizens.”   You can learn more about SCO’s Health Transformation efforts on our website at https://lnkd.in/gZGjJfRU   #SCOINCMB #CMA #HealthTransformation #CanadianMedicalAssociation #Healthcare #Apology #EveryChildMatters

Congressman Greg Murphy, M.D. introduced the Embracing anti-Discrimination, Unbiased Curricula, and Advancing Truth in Education (EDUCATE) Act to ban race-based mandates at medical schools and accrediting institutions. Essentially, diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives are being called discriminatory practices. Those who are underrepresented in medicine deserve to have a seat at the table. Now before you jump on me saying that people who are lesser qualified deserve to get in, that’s not what I am saying at all, and the problem is you if you think those who are underrepresented are lesser qualified. Instead, those who are already there should have the same opportunities as those who are not underrepresented. Medicine is better because of diversity. Patient care is better because of diversity. Yet, there are those who continue to wish to undermine these successes. We all need to learn about each other to be better doctors! Our elected officials need to do and be better.

What advice did Leon C. Adelman, MD, MBA, FACEP, FAAEM have for current medical students at UNC School of Medicine? “When things are broken, it is our job to figure out how to fix them. It is up to physicians to create systems that work better.” Adelman, MD '08 has done exactly that with the creation of Ivy Clinicians, a platform that simplifies the emergency medicine job search through transparency.
