The course introduces the Big Four+ techniques (goal setting, visualization, self-talk, progressive muscular relaxation, attention control and tactical breathing) created by the Canadian Armed Forces using clinical scenarios. This framework can be easily adapted across other training contexts to equip future clinicians with a foundational skill set to optimize their response and recovery following critically stressful incidents.</p>}, number={1}, journal={Canadian Medical Education Journal}, author={Smith, Stephanie and Griggs, Lauren and Rizutti, Franco and Horton, Joan and Brown, Allison and Kassam, Aliya}, year={2020}, month={Dec.}, pages={e95-e97} }
