It’s only a few short weeks until SMACCGold, and in the Northern Hemisphere we are getting rather excited.
On Tuesday the 18th we – Rob (from Critical Care Reviews, Rick (from Virchester) and myself – will be running a workshop on ‘making evidence happen’. Part of that workshop will be based on answering clinical questions generated by the participants. We use 3PQs (or PICOs) to focus questions down into answerable evidence based summaries and we want to give everyone the chance to get involved.
Do you have a question you want us to answer at SMACCGold? We want you to place your #SMACCBets here, on twitter and on the day. Use the resources below to learn more about the process and in particular how to construct an answerable 3PQ.
Your question may be chosen and taken through to win the prize of best #SMACCBet 2014, and of course if you really want to learn how to be an evidence based resuscitationist check to see if there are any places left in the workshop.
So we send a message across the interweb to all #FOAMites across the globe…… Place your SMACCBets now and your question might just get answered.
See you soon on the sunny side of the world.

So you want to be an evidence based physician but you just don’t know how. No worries, we are here to point you in the right direction with a few pointers on what, how, when and why you should keep abreast of the literature in your field. Not only that, we want to encourage you to share what you learn through #FOAM. The links below will help you find, mind and bind the evidence for your practice in a way that will make you a better physician than you are today.
Let’s take you through the skills that you need to be the best.
