Few studies explore the efficacy of traditional journal club to imapct physician practice in emergency medicine (EM).
The Monut Sinai Hospital (New York) residency program has developed a journal club blog that residents can post summaries of their analysis of articles from EM literature and other relevant information such as links to presented article, guidelines, EBM tools etc and and invite other colleagues to comment on their posts and how they incorporate the findings into practice.
The blog, easily accessed via the Internet, has encouraged discussions and acts as a reference to current topics in EM research. The authors said that blogging may help influence physician behaviour.
The journal club blog is featured in the journal Academic Emergency Medicine, Vol 14, 5, Supplement 1, 218 ( subscription required).
