    Abstract The focus of this article is on the impacts of COVID-19 related manifestations of post-truth in educational settings in Australia. Within this context, there has been a reorientation of how wellbeing and academic achievement within schools reflect on broader trends within the general public, at local, state and national scales. Individual and communal experiences of adversity have been significantly impacted by phenomena associated with post-truth, particularly misinformation, a climate of anti-intellectualism, as well as fragmented socio-cultural cohesion. In the first section I explore these trends by providing an overview of how post-truth has been construed in Australian contexts, before moving to consider how engagements with post-truth have been shaped by the pandemic. Second, I analyse the close link between educational concerns that emerged from the pandemic era, and the circumstances that have supported the emergence of post-truth. Particular attention will be paid to debates over 'learning loss' and the place of teachers within Australian communities as a fulcrum for generating cultural capital and social cohesion. In the final section I consider what lessons these experiences have for education, as a way of cultivating learning communities that are oriented towards generating critical and digital literacy skills.

    Abstract Objective: In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, there has been a shift globally from face-to-face consultations to remote consultations. In our department, remote consultations have taken in the form of telephone consultations. In this paper, we set out to study a group of Irish psychiatrists' experience of these consultations.
    Methods: We identified recurrent themes in the existing literature on doctors' experience of telephone consultations with a view to determining the applicability of these themes to a group of Irish psychiatrists. A questionnaire was developed based on themes in the literature. This was sent to all psychiatrists working in a busy psychiatric service in Dublin.
    Results: The questionnaire response rate was 72% (n = 26/35). Diagnostic challenges, the effect of phone consultation on the therapeutic alliance, challenges associated with the use of technology and ethical concerns were identified as issues. Flexibility in the working day and convenience were identified as possible benefits to telephone consultations.
    Conclusions: The group that participated in this research study identified a number of challenges to carrying out successful phone consultations. This study highlights the need at our clinical site for interventions to address the issues identified by staff. The findings also highlight the requirement for larger studies with stronger methodologies to determine the generalisability of our results.

    Abstract Objective: Simulation based medical education (SBME) is fast becoming embedded into undergraduate medical curricula with many publications now describing its various modes and student self-reported impacts. This systematic review synthesizes the available literature for evidence of performance effects of SBME as an adjunct within traditional teaching programmes.
    Methods: A narrative systematic review was conducted according to PRISMA guidelines using Ovid MEDLINE, EMBASE, and PubMed databases for studies, published in English, reporting on general medical and surgical undergraduate SBME between 2010 to 2020. Two reviewers independently assessed potential studies for inclusion. Methods and topics of simulation with their assessments were evaluated. Descriptive statistics were used to describe pooled student cohorts.
    Results: 3074 articles were initially identified using the search criteria with 92 full-text articles then screened for eligibility. Nineteen articles, including nine randomised trials, concerning 2459 students (median 79/study), were selected for review. Cardiac scenarios were commonest (n=6) with three studies including surgical topics. Nine studies used mannequin simulators (median time/session 17.5minutes) versus standardised patients in seven (median time/session=82 minutes). Educational impact was measured by written (n=10), checklist (n=5) and OSCEs (n=3) assessment either alone or in combination (n=1, OSCE/written assessment). All articles reported a positive effect of SBME on knowledge including improved retention in three.
    Conclusion: SBME, as an adjunct to existing curricula, improves knowledge-based performance of medical students at least in the short-term. Future studies should broaden its topics, assess longer term impacts and cost-effectiveness while also considering whether and what areas of traditional undergraduate learning it can replace.

    Abstract Introduction: Since the establishment of the Major Trauma Networks in 2012, it is estimated that an extra 1,600 lives have been saved across England. Although the delivery of trauma care has improved significantly, the provision of trauma training has not and remains fragmented. The Association of Surgeons in Training (ASiT), an independent organisation run by trainees, is dedicated to excellence in surgical training within the United Kingdom (UK) and Republic of Ireland (ROI). The aim of this study was to develop a consensus statement representing the views of the ASiT on the future of trauma surgery training.
    Methods: A modified nominal group technique was used in five stages: 1, scoping exercise; 2, virtual consultation; 3, nominal group consensus meeting; 4, virtual feedback from stakeholders; and 5, virtual confirmation by the ASiT Council. The design and reporting of the consensus followed best practice methodology for consensus research.
    Results: Overall, 62 participants gave 90 statements across stages 1-3. Eleven key themes were identified, all of which met the consensus of the ASiT Council. The key findings were widespread support for increased exposure to trauma for medical students and early surgical trainees as well as an increased use of simulation methods and improved focus on non-technical skills within trauma surgery.
    Conclusions: This study sets out the position of the ASiT on the future of trauma surgery training and how training in major trauma surgery in the UK and ROI could be improved.

    Abstract Purpose: We present a unique opportunity to compare standard neck injury criteria (used by the automotive industry to predict injury) with real-life injuries. The injuries sustained during, and the overall kinematics of, a television demonstration of whiplash mechanics were used to inform and validate a vertebral level model of neck mechanics to examine the relevance of current injury criteria used by the automotive industry.
    Methods: Frontal and rear impact pulses, obtained from videos of sled motion, were used to drive a MADYMO human model to generate detailed segmental level biomechanics. The maximum amplitude of the frontal and rear crash pulses was 166 ms
    Results: Whilst the subject suffered significant upper neck injuries, these were not predicted by conventional upper neck injury criteria (Nij and Nkm). However, the model did predict anterior accelerations of C1 and C2 of 40 g, which is 5 times higher than the threshold of the acceleration for alar ligament injury. Similarly, excessive anterior shear displacement (15 mm) of the skull relative to C2 was predicted. Predictions of NIC, an injury criterion relevant to the lower neck, as well as maximum flexion angles for the lower cervical segments (C3-T1) exceeded injury thresholds.
    Conclusion: The criteria used by the automotive industry as standard surrogates for upper neck injury (Nij and Nkm) did not predict the significant cranio-cervical junction injury observed clinically.

    Abstract Purpose: Children who use a manual wheelchair (WC) or a power WC may not receive adequate WC skills training. Clinicians report knowledge as a barrier to the provision of paediatric WC skills training. The purpose of this study was to explore the breadth and depth of specific factors clinicians consider when providing WC skills training for children.
    Methods: Data in this modified Think Aloud study were gathered
    Results: Twenty-eight English-speaking clinicians participated in the study. A total of 1246 distinct factors were mapped to 352 unique ICF codes spanning all four ICF Domains. The largest number of identified factors mapped to codes within the Activities and participation Domain (42.25%).
    Conclusion: Participants reported considering multiple factors across the ICF in the provision of WC skills training for children. Providing paediatric WC skills training is a complex activity requiring clinicians to consider a wide range of factors that go beyond a child's motor abilities.IMPLICATIONS FOR REHABILITATIONProviding paediatric wheelchair (WC) skills training is a complex activity requiring clinicians to consider a wide range of factors that go beyond a child's motor abilities.Clinicians should consider the child's Mental Functions, Activities and Participation, and Environmental Factors when providing wheelchair skills training for children.A lack of wheelchair-specific International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health codes was noted. Revising these codes to better capture the diverse range of the benefits and challenges involved in learning to use and using a wheelchair would be beneficial.
