Dr Cochrane – ACCREDITED medical education

The Canadian Cochrane Centre and The Cochrane Collaboration are expanding their involvement in continuing medical education (CME), in collaboration with Wiley-Blackwell Publishing (The Cochrane Library’s publisher), through the development of Dr Cochrane — Cochrane vignettes. Cochrane evidence is presented in a memorable fictional story, while corresponding multiple-choice questions provide users with the opportunity to explore and understand the clinical applicability of a Cochrane Review. Dr Cochrane transforms passive reading of a Cochrane Review into a more interactive learning experience to improve the understanding of Cochrane Systematic Reviews and change professional behaviour.

Cochrane Learning activities are accredited as outlined below:

  • The Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada (RCPSC): 3 MOC credits; 1 hour
  • The College of Family Physicians of Canada (CFPC): 1 Mainpro-M1 credits; 1 hour
  • The Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education of the United States of America (ACCMETM): AMA PRA Category 1 CreditTM
