In recent years, there have been numerous studies exploring different teaching methods for improving diagnostic reasoning in undergraduate medical students. This systematic review examines and summarizes the evidence for the effectiveness of these teaching methods during clinical training. ⋯ The authors posit a framework to teach diagnostic reasoning in the clinical setting. The framework targets specific deficiencies in the students' reasoning process. There remains a lack of studies comparing the effectiveness of different methods. More comparative studies with standardized assessment and evaluation of long-term effectiveness of these methods are recommended.

Brief, stand-up meetings known as huddles may improve clinical care, but knowledge about huddle implementation and effectiveness at the frontlines is fragmented and setting specific. This work provides a comprehensive overview of huddles used in diverse health care settings, examines the empirical support for huddle effectiveness, and identifies knowledge gaps and opportunities for future research. ⋯ This scoping review was registered with the Open Science Framework on 18 January 2019 ( https://osf.io/bdj2x/ ).
