CAEP 2017 - Better Research Through Engagement, Implementation, and Knowledge Translation

Academic Symposium 2017:  Better Research Through Engagement, Implementation, and Knowledge Translation

Saturday, June 3, 2017 at CAEP 2017 in Whistler

Panel 1: How to engage the patient & public in EM research and implementation

Engagement Panelists: Patrick Archambault (chair), Antoine Boivin, Katie Dainty, Jacques Lee, Shelley McLeod, Christian Vaillancourt
Academic Section Representatives: Jeff Perry, Ian Stiell

Conducting patient-oriented studies is the new reality for clinical research. We will be making pragmatic recommendations on the best practices, facilitators, and barriers for the engagement of patients and the public in EM research studies. Specifically, this panel will develop recommendations to improve and standardize patient engagement in 1) planning and executing EM research, and 2) translating research findings into practice.

Panel 2: How to engage physicians in EM research and how to conduct implementation trials

Implementation Panelists: Andrew McRae (co-chair), Ian Stiell (co-chair), Jamie Brehaut, Janet Curran, Marcel Émond, Corinne Hohl, Monica Taljaard
Academic Section Representative: Jeff Perry

We will be making recommendations for engaging physicians to facilitate primary research studies in the ED. These may include prospective data collection and clinical trials, among other study designs. The panel will review different strategies to encourage physicians to participate in timely and accurate data collection.

We will also be making recommendations for the optimal conduct of implementation studies in the ED. Such studies generally involve changes in behaviour by clinicians, such as ordering imaging, performing CPR, and removal of cervical spine immobilization.

Implementation studies seek to demonstrate the actual impact on patient outcomes for new processes of care. The panel will review different study designs as well methods for ensuring optimal compliance among participating physicians, nurses, and paramedics.

Panel 3: How to ensure evidence impacts care through successful implementation or knowledge translation 
Implementation Panelists: Kerstin de Wit (co-chair), Laurie Morrison (co-chair), Janet Curran, Shawn Dowling, Eddy Lang, Brent Thoma

Implementation Science or Knowledge Translation, is the study of methods to promote the uptake of research findings and guidelines into routine health care in clinical, organizational, or policy contexts. Recognizing the challenging environment of emergency medicine, the goal of this session is to develop recommendations for the establishment of evidence based practices in local emergency departments that are based on implementation science and expert guidance. In particular, the session will examine the role of social media and emergency medicine specific interventions in translating the best evidence in emergency medicine to the bedside.

CAEP 2016 - Emergency Physician Educators & Scholars…the Path to Success!

Academic Symposium 2016: Emergency Physician Educators & Scholars…the Path to Success!

Saturday, June 4, 2016 at CAEP 2016 in Québec City

The vision of the Academic Section is to promote high-quality emergency patient care by conducting world-leading education and research in emergency medicine.

How do I prepare for a CAREER in medical education? 
Panel Lead: Rob Woods
Panelists: Farhan Bhanji, Sandy Dong, Simon Field, Chris Hicks, Rose Mengual, Sheila Smith, Stella Yiu

Draft Recommendations
1. It is recommended that all Clinician Educators in Emergency Medicine be competent in the following domains: Leadership, Communication, Assessment and Curriculum Development.

2. Advanced training in medical education is recommended for those pursuing an Emergency Medicine Clinician Educator role.  Advanced training CAN be in the form of a Masters Degree, but focussed training on specific skills is also an option.

3. In planning the area of advanced training for a future clinician educator role, the skills of the existing local Clinician Educators should be considered and complemented.

4. Academic and Hospital Emergency Medicine Department Heads should support their future clinician educators to pursue advanced training in Medical Education through preferential work scheduling or protected time, and financial support.

5. Academic and Hospital Emergency Medicine Department Heads should advocate for promotion processes that are in-line with the career path for Clinician Educators, which may be different than traditional research-focussed promotion criteria.

6. The CAEP Academic Section should support the mentorship of future Clinician Educators on a national scale.

CAEP 2014 - How to make research succeed in your department

Academic Symposium 2014: How to make research succeed in your department

CAEP 2014 in Ottawa

The vision of the Academic Section is to promote high-quality emergency patient care by conducting world-leading education and research in emergency medicine. Through its three working groups focused on leadership/administration, education, and research, the Academic Section delivers the annual Academic Symposium. Last year, it focussed on education, and this year’s focus is research. The 2014 Academic Symposium has three sections, each led by panels with participation from across Canada. For nearly a year, each panel has met regularly and addressed specific questions aimed at the overall objective of making research succeed in your department.

Panel 1: Achieving Excellence in Canadian Resident Research

Lisa Calder’s panel has investigated expectations and requirements of the resident research programs across Canada by surveying program directors from each medical school. A systematic review of emergency medicine resident research programs will be discussed and help formulate recommendations for the improvement of Canadian resident research programs.

Panel 2: Training and Developing Career EM Researchers in Canada

At this year’s Academic Symposium, Jeff Perry’s panel will discuss how to train and develop career researchers.  Through survey information gathered directly from Canadian career researchers, as well as a systematic literature review, the panel will present findings and initial recommendations addressing the training and developing career emergency medicine researchers.

Panel 3: Funding of Canadian EM Research

Christian Vaillancourt’s panel has examined the different research funding models from across Canada, including the use/disbursement of funds and funding sources.  A list of resources will be made available, and personal (expert) accounts of securing research funding will be described.  A discussion of challenges will inform a list of recommendations for publication.

The findings and recommendations from the 2014 Academic Research Symposium have been published in CJEM.

CAEP 2013 - Education Scholarship

Academic Symposium 2013 on Education Scholarship

CAEP 2013 in Vancouver

How do we advance EM education? How do I share my amazing education idea with the world? What is education scholarship? How do we increase the recognition of EM education in our hospitals and universities?

These were the questions discussed at the first CAEP Consensus Conference (now called the Academic Symposia), hosted by the new Academic Emergency Medicine Interest Group (now the Section of Academic Emergency Medicine). If you are an EM teacher, educator, program director, clerkship director, researcher, leader you need to be  at these events!

Colleagues came together on Saturday June 1,2013 to discuss and determine the advancement of EM education. Practical steps on how to turn your education idea into scholarship will be shared. Your Consensus Conference recommendations were to be published in the Canadian Journal of Emergency Medicine.

Immediately after the Consensus Conference, individuals were invited to attend the meeting of the Academic Emergency Medicine Interest Group.

The findings and recommendations from the 2013 Academic Symposium on Education Scholarship have been published in CJEM.
