ACCREDITATION
This event is an Accredited Group Learning Activity (Section 1) as defined by the Maintenance of Certification Program of the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada, and approved by Canadian Association of Emergency Physicians. You may claim a maximum of 6 hours (credits are automatically calculated).
Learning Objectives
- To lead internationally in the conduct of high-impact emergency care research
- To collaborate with colleagues and interdisciplinary collaborators across the nation and beyond
- To build capacity in Canadian emergency care research
- To disseminate our findings through knowledge translation and exchange, ensuring the science has an impact on care, education scholarship, policy decisions, outcomes, and systems of care
Learning objectives for the protocol reviews are:
- To optimize the methodology and analytical plan for the study
- To educate potential sites on the trial and participation
- To receive NCER written feedback and endorsement
PROTOCOL PRESENTATIONS
The meeting will be held on Zoom with the link(s) being circulated to all attendees approximately one week in advance. Presenters will be asked to pre-record their talks using Zoom. Instructions for recording your presentation are available here.
Submit your protocol/protocol update here: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/NCER2021. The deadline is Monday, February 15, 2021.
Protocol endorsements: Presenters will have 8 minutes for full protocols and 12 minutes for discussion, which will be mediated by a member of the NCER executive. We strongly encourage presenters to come prepared with 2-3 questions or items they are seeking advice on to guide the discussion and ensure these 3 questions are embedded at the start of the presentation and again at the end.
Protocol updates: Presenters will have 5 minutes for updates and 5 minutes for discussion, which will be mediated by a member of the NCER executive. Investigators whose projects have been endorsed by NCER are strongly encouraged to provide an update.
PROTOCOL IDEA GENERATOR SESSION
An opportunity for investigators to present one slide on an idea or concept for a multi centre trial or study that would benefit from group discussion. These concept time slots may serve to just get the intellectual juices flowing and perhaps spark some discussions during the networking breaks. Each presenter will have 5 minutes for presentation + 5 for discussion.
Please contact kwyatt@caep.ca if you would like to present during one of these sessions (space is limited).
