Quality improvement and patient safety (QIPS) and clinician well-being work are interconnected and impact each other. Well-being is of increased importance in the current state of workforce shortages and high levels of burnout. The Canadian Association of Emergency Physicians (CAEP) Academic Symposium sought to understand the interplay between QIPS and clinician well-being and to provide practical recommendations to clinicians and institutions on ensuring that clinician well-being is integrated into QIPS efforts. ⋯ QIPS and clinician well-being are often closely linked. By incorporating these recommendations, QIPS strategies can enhance clinician well-being.

Meta Analysis Comparative Study
Comparison of peer-assisted learning with expert-led learning in medical school ultrasound education: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Teaching point-of-care ultrasonography (PoCUS) to medical students is resource intensive. Peer-assisted learning, where the teacher can be a medical student, may be a feasible alternative to expert-led learning. The objective of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to compare the PoCUS performance assessments of medical students receiving peer-assisted vs expert-led learning. ⋯ This meta-analysis found that peer-assisted learning was a reasonable alternative to expert-led learning for teaching PoCUS skills to medical students.
