Resetting the compass for research on trauma education

Performing applied research in any field of study is difficult. In this sense, medical education research is no different to clinical research in terms of the existence of a number and wide range of barriers and challenges faced in the planning, execution and analysis. Participants in medical education research are frequently students of one variety or other rather than patients. But, just like patients, learner participants can be every bit as complex, demonstrate varying degrees of cooperation with the research protocol and subject to numerous influencing factors occurring before, during and after the research takes place.
