Learning objectives

By the end of the session, learners will be able to critically appraise the methodology and results of a randomized controlled trial relevant to medicine using a structured framework.
Learners will be able to identify the key roles of pharmacists in trauma response teams and evaluate the effectiveness of these roles based on specific criteria identified in the research paper.
After this session, participants should be able to differentiate between a well-conducted randomized controlled trial and a poorly conducted one, detailing factors such as blinding, randomization, selection bias, and sample size.
Participants will gain the skill of effectively communicating and debating research findings on a professional level, discussing implications, potential biases, and future directions in a group setting.
By the conclusion of the session, learners will be able to suggest improvements for future trials based on their evaluation of the given research paper on emergency medicine pharmacists in trauma response teams.
