Re-examining single-moment-in-time high-stakes examinations in specialist training
In this critical narrative review, we challenge the belief that single-moment-in-time high-stakes examinations (SMITHSEx) are an essential component of contemporary specialist training. We explore the arguments both for and against SMITHSEx, examine potential alternatives, and discuss the barriers to change.SMITHSEx are viewed as the "gold standard" assessment of competence but focus excessively on knowledge assessment rather than capturing essen…
Skilled communication on social media—the elephant in the room
The authors highlight parallels between effective online communication and face to face communication in the clinical space, indicating that the rules and what is "effective" and "appropriate" varies between environments
Assessing space utilisation relative to key performance indicators – how well, not how much, space is used
Efficient use of resources, including space, is critical in academic departments. Traditional space auditing simply assesses occupancy levels. We present a novel approach which assesses not just the extent to which space is used, but also how well it is used. We link space use quantitatively to key performance indicators in a research-intensive university department. A clear picture of how well each room is being used to meet a range of performan…

Abstinence from smoking and expired-air carbon monoxide levels
We investigated a possible source of contamination of expired-air carbon monoxide (CO) readings on CO monitors from raised expired-air hydrogen (H2) levels, namely lactose intolerance, the norm in certain ethnic groups. A significant correlation between expired-air CO and H2 readings was observed in four non-smoking lactose maldigesters
