Abstract
Subsequent to the validation of a Canadian Curriculum blueprint for Obstetric Medicine (OM), the Canadian Consensus for a Curriculum in Obstetric Medicine (CanCOM) research group was approached to develop 20 cases to address gaps in clinical exposure during clinical rotations in OM. Forty-nine Obstetric Internists were identified and 43 confirmed their affiliation to the group. Participants (N = 22) reviewed the content of the CanCOM blueprint and identified curriculum content that they considered essential for a rotation for senior General Internal Medicine residents. This survey led to the creation of the CanCOM II essential content blueprint for General Internal Medicine. Following this step, a second subgroup of participants (N = 21) participated in a Delphi survey to identify the content that should be addressed by a teaching case for senior General Internal Medicine residents. A high-level of consensus was obtained for 13 topics and a moderate level for the 7 subsequent topics resulting in the creation of the CanCOM II clinical cases available at http://gemoq.ca/cancom-ii-clinical-case-databank/.
