Highlights
Last year, hundreds of physicians across the province regulated the profession of medicine by providing expert opinion, developing policy,
assessing peers and acting as investigators. In this issue of Dialogue, we pay tribute to their contributions to self-regulation.
Disclosure of Adverse Events
At a conference, co-sponsored by this College, advice was presented about how to best communicate to a patient the occurrence of an adverse event.
Control of Concentrated Electrolyte Solutions
While all drugs, biologics, vaccines, and contrast media have a defined risk profile, concentrated electrolyte solutions for injection are especially dangerous. In this issue of Dialogue, we present WHO’s recommendations to improve control of concentrated electrolyte solutions.
