This week we delve into the world of cognitive bias when we review a recent review of this topic by the team at the University of Arkansas. What are some of the more important common cognitive biases that plague humans and are particularly deleterious for good decision making in 'case management/surgical' conference? What are some approaches to reducing the impact of these biases? How does the advent of ZOOM enhance or reduce bias for surgical conference decisions? We speak with noted authority on this topic, Dr. Joshua Daily who is Associate Professor of Pediatrics at The University of Arkansas in Little Rock for his deep insights into this topic.
