Our CJEM Journal Club consists of two sections. The first, “Critically Appraised Topics,” is devoted to evidence-based reviews of specific EM-related questions. Questions will be answered by using a focused literature review and presenting the results in a CAT (Critically Appraised Topic) format. The aims of this section are to address clinical or administrative questions, to demonstrate the application of evidence-based medicine methods in answering such questions, and to accumulate a CAT database for emergency physicians.
