Error Management Training clinical trials at UCSF

The main objective of this study is to demonstrate that Error Management Training improves adaptive expertise in head computed tomography interpretation. We will conduct a randomized controlled trial comparing two learning strategies, Error Management Training vs Error Avoidance Training, in emergency medicine residents. We hypothesize that Error Management Training, as compared to Error Avoidance Training, will improve adaptive expertise, as measured by skills transfer, when used to teach head computed tomography interpretation to emergency medicine residents.
