Assessment of Emergency Medicine Resident Performance in a Pediatric In Situ Simulation Using Multi-Source Feedback.

Introduction Multi-source feedback (MSF) is an evaluation method mandated by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME). The Queen's Simulation Assessment Tool (QSAT) has been validated as being able to distinguish between resident performances in a simulation setting. The QSAT has also been demonstrated to have excellent MSF agreement when used in an adult simulation performed in a simulation lab.

A highly adaptable catalyst/substrate system for the synthesis of substituted chromenes.

The gold(I)-catalyzed endo-cyclization of o-(1-hydroxyallyl)phenols to form chromenes is reported. The title compounds are prepared in high yield from readily available substrates. The system tolerates both electron rich and deficient aryl rings and a high degree of substitution on the allyl moiety.
