Crowdsourced feedback to improve resident physician error disclosure skills: a randomized clinical trial.
Open disclosure of errors is increasingly encouraged in health care and emphasized in health profession training. This randomized trial evaluated the effectiveness of video-based communication assessment (VCA) feedback in resident error disclosure skill training. The researchers found that internal medicine and family medicine residents who received individual feedback on simulated error disclosure performance scored significantly higher on subsequent error disclosure assessments, as compared to residents who did not receive feedback.
