Abstract:
Background: Coupled with the expansion of simulation has been the development and growth of medical simulation fellowships. These non-accredited fellowships do not have a standardized curriculum and there are currently no studies investigating the simulation fellowship experience. The purpose of this study was to explore the simulation fellowship experience of graduates throughout North America and how it prepared them for their post-fellowship career.Methods: A web-based survey was developed by Emergency Medicine attending physicians both of whom completed one-year fellowships in medical simulation. Prior to distribution, the survey was reviewed and tested by three simulation fellowship graduates and a PhD researcher. Feedback was integrated into the survey prior to distribution. The survey consisted of a maximum of 29 multiple choice questions including two step-logic questions and two open response questions. The survey was distributed to simulation fellowship directors in multiple disciplines and the directors were asked to forward the survey to graduates. Additionally, the Society for Academic Emergency Medicine Simulation Academy list-serve was utilized for distribution of the survey.Results: The survey had 35 responses. The majority of respondents completed fellowship within the last two years (66%, 23/35). Fellowship graduates strongly agreed or agreed that their fellowship adequately prepared them for their post-fellowship simulation career (88%). Graduates report that research design/reporting (53%) and administration (18%) were areas of their fellowship curriculum that needed the most improvement.Conclusion: The majority of simulation fellowship graduates agreed that their fellowship experience adequately prepared them for their post-fellowship simulation career. Graduates also felt that training in research and administration are areas that could be improved.

Abstract:
Background Microsurgery fellowships have become an integral part of every plastic surgery training program. While each subspecialty differs in terms of reconstructive requirements, the basic tenets and skill sets remain the same. We explore the possibility of designing a clinical curriculum for microsurgery that can provide residents and fellows with a more foundational and structured approach to microsurgical training. Methods Thirteen core and desired skills to accommodate an “ideal” microsurgery curriculum were listed and categorized according to the level of difficulty. The curriculum was then sent to plastic surgery trainees, fellows, and consultants within Scotland in the form of a survey. They were asked to assign a level of difficulty, basic, intermediate, or advanced, to each of the 13 skill sets. Results A total of 27 surgeons were surveyed; the majority of which were plastic surgery registrars. Overall a broad, generic clinical curriculum was felt to be lacking, but would be beneficial at the start of training. The curriculum should emphasize a step-wise progression, starting from achieving competency in safe, efficient anastomosis at the basic level to eventually mastering the principles of complex reconstruction at a more advanced level. Conclusions A generic clinical curriculum offers a framework for tracking progress, the potential for competency-based assessment, and aid in designing a microsurgery fellowship. The curriculum should reflect the evolving nature of the specialty and provide a foundational platform for future innovations.

Abstract:
Mutual aid fellowships have been shown to improve outcomes for those with co-occurring substance use and mental illness disorders. Processes associated with usefulness include helper therapy (the assumption of a helping role to foster commitment) and reciprocal learning (the sharing of problems and solutions among members). The present qualitative investigation used focus groups comprised a subset of participants in Double Trouble in Recovery (DTR), a 12-step mutual aid group for those with co-occurring disorders, to gather their subjective perceptions of the groups. Participants emphasized that in linking them to others with similar problems, the DTR groups played a vital emotional role in their lives and provided a needed venue for information sharing that might have been otherwise unavailable.

Abstract:
Background: Orthopaedic sports medicine fellowship positions are increasing in popularity, as evidenced by the increasing number of applicants to these programs. As positions have become more competitive, greater emphasis has been placed on an applicant’s research experience. However, there has been a lack of research evaluating the accuracy of self-reported publications from fellowship applications. Purpose: To evaluate the accuracy of self-reported research publications and the outcomes of studies submitted for publication by applicants to an Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME)–accredited sports medicine fellowship in the United States (US). Study Design: Cross-sectional study. Methods: Demographic and research publication data were retrospectively collected from 435 applications to an ACGME-accredited orthopaedic sports medicine fellowship program at a single high-volume academic institution from 2013 to 2017. All self-reported manuscript publications and studies in progress were analyzed with a minimum 2-year follow-up. “Submitted” publications were reviewed by searching the originally submitted journal and all publicly available sources. Publications were verified on PubMed, MEDLINE, and other open access journals. Journal impact factors were collected through use of InCites Journal Citation Reports. Results: Only 5.7% (85/1504) of papers reported as “completed” were inaccurately self-reported, with 44 (51.8%) remaining unverified and 41 (48.2%) reporting discordant authorship, in which the published study listed a different author order than reported on the application. Further, 28.3% (197/696) of papers self-reported as “submitted” remained unpublished, 21.8% (152/696) were published in a different journal than originally reported, and 7.6% (53/696) were published with a different authorship order than reported. Among 95 applicants whose papers were published in different journals than originally reported, the mean impact factor of the final accepting journal was significantly lower than that of the journal of original submission (0.97 ± 0.13 vs 3.91 ± 0.79, respectively; 95% CI of the difference, 1.34-4.54; P < .01). Univariate analysis showed no significant relationships between variables of interest (age, sex, US Medical Licensing Examination Step 1 score, American Orthopaedic Association membership, medical school ranking, and advanced degree) and the presence of an inaccuracy. Conclusion: There is a low rate of inaccurate self-reporting of “completed” publications on applications for orthopaedic sports medicine fellowships. The majority of papers listed as “submitted” on these applications were not published in the journals to which they were originally submitted.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis is an investigation into ways of seeing 12 Step fellowships. The latter provide a popular but controversial means of recovery from various addictive behaviours. The conceptual basis of 12 Step fellowships is the idea that addictions are an illness or disease, and this idea has become the focus of the negative critiques of 12 Step fellowships. Concepts of illness and disease are closely related to concepts of personhood. What 12 Step discourses construct as 'illness' can also be understood as a condition characterised by failure of human capacities for agency, choice, and responsibility. How we understand 12 Step discourses of addiction, illness, and recovery will depend greatly upon the concepts of personhood, illness, and knowledge that inform our view. In order to investigate the concepts that make diverging views of 12 Step fellowships possible, this study develops post-Enlightenment concepts of personhood, illness and knowledge. I use these concepts as a lens with which to examine the negative critiques, and to provide a more positive reading of 12 Step fellowships and illness concepts. In doing so, this thesis aims to show, first, that a positive view that can articulate the value of 12 Step fellowships to 12 Step members is possible, and second, that 12 Step fellowship discourses are philosophically interesting and challenge modern western notions of the self and its capacities. The thesis has six chapters. Chapter One presents an overview of the study, and introduces the basic concepts and practices of 12 Step fellowships. Chapter Two presents an epistemology called perspectivism which provides my research methodology as well as a means of analysing the epistemological assumptions at work in the negative critiques of 12 Step discourses. In order to understand how the capacities of the self may fail, and how such failures might be remedied, Chapter Three presents a post-Enlightenment theorisation of personhood as constituted, embodied, and socially embedded subjectivity. This theorisation enables us to examine how embodied selves may be constituted with diminished capacities for agency, responsibility, and choice, and permits the construction of an account of addiction that explains why addictive disorders are a significant social problem in contemporary western societies. Finally, this theorisation enables us to investigate the concepts of personhood that inform the negative critiques. Chapter Four investigates how concepts of illness inform the negative critiques, and shows that it is possible to understand terms such as 'illness' and 'disease' in a non-medical sense. Arguably, such understandings are better able to illuminate the connection between the notion of illness and recovery practices in 12 Step discourses of addiction. Chapter Five uses the conceptual framework provided by Chapters Two, Three, and Four to present a positive view of 12 Step fellowships and discourses. The three key features of this view are, first, that 12 Step fellowship discourses describe addictions as an illness of the self; second, they provide a phenomenology of the sick self; and third, 12 Step recovery discourses and practices are consistent with the notion that the constituted self is limited, and can be reconstituted or changed through practice of the 12 Step recovery program. Together, these three key features show us that 12 Step fellowships provide a valuable social resource for people with limited capacities for self-regulation to help themselves and each other. Chapter Six considers the implications of this more positive view of 12 Step fellowships in terms of the primary and secondary aims of this thesis.

Abstract:
Aims: This study aimed to explore the nature of recovery processes underlying twelvestep fellowships. The introduction gave an overview of addiction theory, fellowship principles and quantitative efficacy studies. I outlined my rationale for the necessity for research into the mechanisms of change that members experience during their journeys to recovery utilising the fellowships. Methods: Constructivist theory laid out by Charmaz (2006) was deemed to be the most appropriate method for doing this given the research focus and my position as a researcher. Nine qualitative interviews, consisting of six sampling, two theoretical and one negative case, were conducted and analysed using Nvivo computer software. Findings: Seven main categories were uncovered which crystallised around a core category of ‘striving for and maintaining recovery’. Problems with the fellowships and alternative perspectives were also outlined. A model of the theory was presented, as well as models for each of the main categories and their sub-category interactions. Discussion: This study has demonstrated that there are several implicit and explicit mechanisms of change involved in fellowship recovery: Working a Programme, Connecting With Other Addicts, Creating Change, Going to Any Lengths, Understanding Addiction and Coming to Believe. Problems with the fellowships include: coping with unhelpful members, the concept of ‘God’, old-fashioned concepts and lack of awareness of the fellowships. This theory brings together the elements of recovery into a cohesive whole. An evaluation and implications of the study are explored. My conclusions are supported by similar findings from other well-respected researchers and have shown that the fellowship programme is based on valid psychological principles.

Abstract:
Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) is the world’s largest and most recognisable recovery ‘program’, and central to its philosophy is the 12 Step Program. AA is a global organisation of 2.2 million members worldwide (AAWS, 2001), with a reported 3,600 weekly meetings in the United Kingdom (AAWS, 2011). AA has made many claims in their literature about the program’s effectiveness (AAWS, 2001: 84). Alcoholism is associated with a number of very serious health and social problems, including involvement in crime (Finney 2004; Fitzpatrick, 2010; Alcohol Reduction Strategy 2003). As fiscal pressure mounts, groups such as AA will be of interest to policy makers. Through an analysis of interviews with twenty long-term abstinent members of Alcoholics Anonymous, the thesis seeks to explain the effects of participation in AA’s therapeutic practices. Evidence from the literature on AA, revealed three concepts key to understanding participation in AA: Motivation to Engage (MtE), Structured Social Engagement (SSE), and Personal Agency (PA). A hypothetical model of AA-mediated behavioural change, constituted by these elements, was constructed and the findings supported this putative model. Further analysis revealed the coping strategies members of AA employed that ensured engagement with AA during stressful life events that threatened abstinence. The model was adapted to incorporate the temporal effects of long-term engagement with AA. Elements of Maruna’s (2001: 73) Condemnation Script resonated in the narratives of AA members. Contra Maruna’s analysis, AA members accepted ‘condemnation script’, but these were not negative, limiting beliefs. AA’s therapeutic practices structure, a coherent sense of self, one that supports cessation from negative patterns of drinking. The data exposed the sustained usage of AA’s discourse in the narrative accounts given. This finding extends Borkman’s (1976) Experiential Knowledge thesis, a language of ‘truth’ based on personal experience. The ‘linguistic echoes’ embedded in each narrative, suggests that a person uses AA’s discourse to ‘scaffold’ their recovery. This thesis provides an explanation of AA’s therapeutic practices of how adherence to AA’s principles, cognitively restructures the individual towards mastering self-control. AA’s philosophy and the following empirical evidence asserts abstinence as pre-requisite for recovery from alcohol dependence.

Abstract:
This book has grown out of decades of practicing simulation and teaching concepts of perioperative crisis resource management at our institutions, at national meetings, and in our residency and fellowship training programs. The purpose is to fill a gap between two areas of valuable work that exist in the perioperative emergency space; namely, between books that consist largely of steps of diagnosing a problem followed by a list of treatment steps and those reference books or articles that form the compendium works. As such, the goal of this volume is to be an up-to-date, high-yield, clinically relevant resource for understanding the epidemiology, pathophysiology, and proper assessment and management of a wide variety of perioperative emergencies. Our target audience is anesthesiologists, nurse anesthetists, surgeons, recovery and critical care nurses, and anyone else practicing within the perioperative arena.

Abstract:
This chapter traces the growing distinction between Bill Wilson's personal spirituality and the generic spirituality of Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) through a focus on the emergence of the Twelve Steps and the Twelve Traditions. As a spiritual path, AA centers on the Twelve Steps as worked in the context of groups that maintain their unity through their embrace of the Twelve Traditions. Taken together the Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions simultaneously position AA as a fellowship that is compatible—but not aligned—with either “organized religion” or “organized medicine” and grounds the recovery of the individual and the unity of the organization in the spiritual principle of anonymity.

Abstract:
Numerous mutual support programs exist to help clients cope with substance use problem. The most common of these programs are Alcoholics Anonymous (AA), Narcotics Anonymous (NA), and other 12-step programs. All mutual support programs involve people with alcohol or drug problems helping each other. Some people maintain lifelong involvement in mutual support programs, and others use them for a limited period of time. Although programs vary in philosophies and approaches, most involve fellowship, recovery meetings, program steps or guidelines, recovery literature, social events, and internet resources. Some areas have recovery clubs or clubhouses for people in recovery. These provide an alcohol- and drug-free environment in which one can attend recovery meetings or other social events. The goals of this chapter are to learn about the different types of mutual support programs available and to determine which type of program may work for the client.

This chapter explores the tension and competition between various missionaries and missions agencies in Ecuador as each group tried to position itself to contact the Waorani. Rachel Saint and Elisabeth Elliot reconciled for the first of many times before Rachel and Dayomæ traveled to the US for This Is Your Life and speaking engagements, a trip that lasted a year. Dayomæ converted to Christianity and was baptized by V. Raymond Edman, president of Wheaton College, where three of the missionaries killed by the Waorani had attended. In Ecuador the missions first involved in the Waorani project continued efforts to make contact. Mission Aviation Fellowship resumed flights over Wao clearings. Brethren missionary Wilfred Tidmarsh ventured near Waorani territory. In November 1957 two Waorani women, Mintaca and Mæncamo, came out of the rainforest. Elisabeth Elliot befriended them, brought them to live with her, and sought to learn the Wao language.

Abstract:
All good proposals must come to an end. In this chapter, we examine conventional ways in which authors summarize and conclude their Project Descriptions. We consider project timelines, lists of expected outcomes, and statements of broader impacts. By the end of this chapter, you should be able to ■ Develop a project timeline ■ Generate a list of expected outcomes ■ Suggest broader impacts of your proposed work ■ Reinforce the importance of your proposed work in concluding remarks As you work through the chapter, you will write the closing section of your own Project Description. The Writing on Your Own tasks throughout the chapter guide you step by step as you do the following: 14A Create a project timeline 14B Create a list of expected outcomes 14C Conclude the proposed work 14D Complete the Outcomes and Impacts section Like the previous sections of the Project Description (chapters 12 and 13), there is no one right way to end a proposal. However, proposal guidelines often instruct authors to include a projected timeline, a list of expected outcomes, a summary of objectives, and/or a statement of relevance or broader impacts in their concluding remarks. For example, the ACS Division of Analytical Chemistry Graduate Fellowship announcement (excerpt 11A) asks for a statement that links “the relevance of [the proposed] work to analytical chemistry.” The NSF Grant Proposal Guide (see excerpt 15B) asks for “objectives for the period of the proposed work,” their “expected significance,” and their “relationship to longer-term goals of the PI’s project.” Moreover, the PI must describe “as an integral part of the narrative, the broader impacts of the proposed activities.” Not surprisingly, each of the authors of our 22 CAREER proposals approached this task slightly differently. We examine several of their approaches in this chapter. We begin with an excerpt that you can read and analyze on your own (excerpt 14A), specifically, the conclusion to Harpp’s proposal regarding plume-ridge interaction in the Galápagos. She includes a formal timeline (titled “Project Schedule”) and conclusions for her work.
