Emergency physician professionalism versus wellness: A conceptual model.

Striking the balance between professional duties, obligations, and responsibility with protecting one's wellness as a physician and as an individual have been brought into sharper focus during COVID-19. The objective of this paper is to describe ethical principles in the balance between emergency physician wellness and professional responsibility to patients and the public. We propose a schematic that helps us as emergency physicians visualize continuously striving to be both well and professional.

Comparison of two validated evidence-based medicine assessments: Do they correlate?

Unlabelled: Evidence-based medicine (EBM) has been defined as a process involving five actions: asking, acquiring, appraising, applying, and assessing. Several attempts have been made to create and validate tools to assess EBM aptitude. The newest testing instrument, the ACE tool, which is a 15-question true/false exam, has not been directly compared to the more established Fresno test, which is composed of 12 in-depth short-answer questions.

Reliability and validity support for an abbreviated Copenhagen burnout inventory using exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis.

Objective: The Copenhagen Burnout Inventory (CBI) is an open-access, valid, and reliable instrument measuring burnout that includes 19 items distributed across the following 3 domains (factors): personal burnout, work burnout, and patient burnout. The primary objective of this study was to determine the validity and reliability of an abbreviated CBI to assess burnout in emergency medicine residents.

Methods: This cross-sectional study used data from the CBI that followed the 2021 American Board of Emergency Medicine In-training Examination.

Diversity pipelines: The rationale to recruit and support minority physicians.

Emergency physicians care for patients from all backgrounds with respect and expertise. We aspire to treat everyone equitably and make decisions at the bedside that are not based on age, race, socioeconomic status, gender, sexual orientation, religion, language, or any other category. In many settings, there is a stark contrast between the diversity of our patient populations and that of the physicians caring for them.

The role of hospital ethics committees in emergency medicine practice.

Emergency physicians face real-time ethical dilemmas that may occur at any hour of the day or night. Hospital ethics committees and ethics consultation services are not always able to provide immediate responses to emergency physicians' consultation requests. When faced with an emergent dilemma, emergency physicians sometimes rely on risk management or hospital counsel to answer legal questions, but may be better served by real-time ethics consultation.
