CSEM Quality Improvement (QI) Committee

Reviewing CSEM's Choosing Wisely Recommendations

Choosing Wisely Canada Recommendations are developed by professional societies representing different clinical specialties in Canada meant to identify tests and treatments commonly used in specialties that are not supported by evidence and could expose patients to harm. As each patient situation is unique, clinicians and patients could use the Choosing Wisely Canada materials to determine an appropriate treatment plan together. Since these recommendations were last updated in 2020, CSEM and the Quality Improvement (QI) Committee request your review and feedback of 5 existing Choosing Wisely Canada recommendation based on accuracy and practice relevance.

Please take a moment to answer the questions below for each recommendation.
