ALQahtani DA, Rotgans JI, Mamede S, et al. Factors underlying suboptimal diagnostic performance in physicians under time pressure. Med Educ. 2018;52(12):1288-1298. doi:10.1111/medu.13686.
In this educational study, internal medicine resident physicians were randomized to solve standardized cases with and without time pressure. The time-pressured group performed worse, and they reported more stress and generated fewer possible diagnoses.
