Background: Collaborative learning has been used in nursing education for more than two decades. However, little is known about its relationship to quality of nursing education, its implementation process as well as what factors likely influence the effectiveness of the teaching approach.
Methods: Previous relevant literature had been searched and located from three electronic databases including CINAIL, PubMed, and Google Scholar.
Results: Collaborative learning had been employed in classroom teaching, clinical education and online course teaching. The strategy of instruction was found useful for improving nursing knowledge and skill performance, improving student clinical competency, as well as promote student group skills and learning behavior (e.g., Class engagement, motivation for learning, self-confidence).
Conclusions: It was recommended to integrate collaborative learning into nursing education due to positive influences on student learning.

Background: The concept of the metaverse is a virtual world that immerses users, allowing them to interact with the digital environment. Due to metaverse's utility in collaborative and immersive simulation, it can be advantageous for medical education in high-stakes care settings such as emergency, critical, and acute care. Consequently, there has been a growth in educational metaverse use, which has yet to be characterized alongside other simulation modalities literature.

Jennifer Danielsson is an Assistant Professor of Anesthesiology, Ombuds, Division of Regional Anesthesiology, Stephanie A. Chen is a Pediatric Anesthesiology Fellow, Naralys Batista is a Cardiothoracic Anesthesiology Fellow, and Teresa A. Mulaikal is an Associate Professor of Anesthesiology and Residency Program Director, Division of Cardiothoracic and Critical Care, in the Department of Anesthesiology, Columbia University Irving Medical Center, New York, NY. Caroline H. Jensen is a Critical Care Fellow in the Department of Anesthesiology, Critical Care, and Pain Medicine at Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard, Boston, MA.
The authors propose an educational innovation in graduate medical education, the creation of an Education Ombudsperson. Although this role has been implemented for faculty and students within the medical field, it has not been described in residency programs. The Ombudsperson for house staff is distinct from institutional or programmatic leadership.

Brainprint recognition technology, regarded as a promising biometric technology, encounters challenges stemming from the time-varied, low signal-to-noise ratio of brain signals, such as electroencephalogram (EEG). Steady-state visual evoked potentials (SSVEP) exhibit high signal-to-noise ratio and frequency locking, making them a promising paradigm for brainprint recognition. Consequently, the extraction of time-invariant identity information from SSVEP EEG signals is essential.

Objective: This study sought to: (1) evaluate hospital-level variation in infections following cardiac surgery and (2) develop and evaluate a 180-day infection quality metric.
Methods: This study evaluated Medicare claims that were merged with institutional Society of Thoracic Surgeons Adult Cardiac Surgery Database files among patients undergoing cardiac surgery across 33 Michigan centers. The primary outcome was an infection within 180 days of surgery.

Background: Effective pharmacotherapy requires strong collaboration between physicians and pharmacists, highlighting the need for interprofessional education (IPE) in university curricula. This study evaluated the impact of an IPE program on medical and pharmacy students, focusing on their perceived development of interprofessional collaborative competencies, perceived learning outcomes, and clinical collaboration perceptions.
Methods: A mixed-method approach was employed to evaluate an IPE program that consisted of three mandatory activities with increased complexity and autonomy, that were integrated into the medical and pharmacy students' curricula.
