Structured Interviews
=====================

NOTE: the Structured Interview and Recruitment Materials have been
changed post-IRB Exemption. The exemption letter is pretty explicit
that, as long as our project remains within the scope of the exemption
criteria we selected (no identification of subjects, no potential for
harm if disclosed), our project is exempt from ongoing IRB review. See
Grouphub Files for Exemption Letter.

I'm doing a project this semester with Grant Opportunities
[Collaborative Spaces] where we're prototyping for an online
repository for Grand Rounds cases. Some key features might include:
- making grand rounds presentations available online across
departments, encouraging collaboration & translational research
- very user friendly system - it would take powerpoint presentations,
video/audio, images, text, whatever; no extra work involved
- a searchable database of past and future Grand Rounds
- raise the profile of departments and the UMHS. Univ of Iowa's
Ophthalmology Department has a website similar to what we're trying to
accomplish (http://webeye.ophth.uiowa.edu/eyeforum/). The website
receives thousands of hits per day from over 40 countries.

So I'm looking to speak with some people in different UMHS departments
to see if there is any interest and, if so, what features are
most/least attractive. I thought you might know some people that would
be good to talk to. Let me know if you have any suggestions and keep
me updated on the Progress on Pauline :-)

RESPONSE:
As for your idea, I think it's a great one. I could almost guarantee
that the anesthesia department would be interested. I was thinkiing
that you could contact Chris Turner, from anesthesiology who is the
chair of the QA department for interest, and then Chris Dickinson who
is one of the associate chiefs of staff for the hospital. I actually
work for him with patient safety. He's a great guy, enthusiastic and
could hook you up with various medical divisions. He has presented
many times for the peds grand rounds section. I would drop both a line
with your intent, vision, along with the link for them to view. Debbie
