Morning report innovation: Case Oriented Report and Exam Skills.
Morning report is a valuable educational conference but is often a stand-alone classroom-based discussion which misses the opportunity for bedside education. In this report, we describe an innovative morning report structure - the Case Oriented Report and Exam Skills (CORES) - that addresses this pitfall of the traditional case conference format and brings learners to the bedside. The key components of CORES include highlighting concepts of clinical reasoning, emphasizing evidence-based and hypothesis-driven physical exam (HDPE), and integrating emerging bedside technologies such as point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS).
