Overview

Brief Summary

This is a randomized controlled trial with a mixed method design to determine the impact of coaching on self-perceived medical errors, burnout, and resilience. The study team developed a novel coaching curriculum based in principles of positive psychology and self-reflection with the hypothesis that the coaching intervention will lead to decreased medical errors, decreased burnout, and increased resilience in trainee and faculty participants. Resident and fellow trainees as well as faculty members were recruited across departments and randomized to coaching or control. Faculty in the coaching arm were trained in coaching techniques and paired with a trainee coachee. Survey results as well as focus groups will be used to analyze the impact of the coaching program as compared to standard mentorship (control).

A controlled study examining CBT for bereaved children.The death of a loved one in childhood and adolescence is a risk factor for distress and dysfunction. This event has been associated with increased emotional problems including elevated depression, anxiety, and posttraumatic stress, as well as somatic complaints and behavioural problems (Dowdney, 2008Kaplow, Layne, & Pynoos, 2012). An estimated 5% to 10% of children, experience clinically significant psychiatric problems following loss, including major depression, posttraumatic stress-disorder (PTSD), and Prolonged Grief Disorder (PGD) (Melhem, Moritz, Walker, Shear, & Brent, 2007Melhem, Porta, Shamseddeen, Walker, & Brent, 2011).PGD encompasses several symptoms including separation distress, preoccupation with thoughts about the lost person, a sense of purposelessness about the future, numbness, bitterness, difficulties accepting the loss and difficulty moving on with life without the lost person (Prigerson et al., 2009Shear et al., 2011). Although PGD has mostly been studied among adults, a growing body of empirical studies has shown that children and adolescents can develop PGD symptoms, that can be reliably assessed, are distinct from normal grief, depression and anxiety, including PTSD, and are predictive of significant concomitant internalizing and externalizing problems (Brown & Goodman, 2005Dillen, Fontaine, & Verhofstadt-Denève, 2008Spuij, Prinzie et al., 2012Spuij, Reitz et al., 2012). Evidence that, in a small percentage of people, acute grief reactions turn into chronic debilitating distress, blocking reestablishment of normal routines, will likely lead to the inclusion of two bereavement-related disorders in the DSM-5, namely Adjustment Disorder Related to Bereavement, located in its main text, and Persistent Complex Bereavement-Related Disorder, located in its appendix (APA, 2000APA, 2012for discussions see Boelen & Prigerson, 2012Kaplow et al., 2012Wakefield, 2012).
