“Gastroenterology Numbers in Canada: A Comparison of Human Resource Databases” by D Leddin et al. Journal of the Canadian Association of Gastroenterology 2018; doi: 10.1093/jcag/gwx005.
In the Abstract, the third sentence, “They differ in the data which they collect and, hence, in their estimates of GI HR. The two most likely to reflect current HR are the Canadian Institute of Health Research (CIHI) and Canadian Medical Association (CMA) databases”, should read “They differ in the data which they collect and, hence, in their estimates of GI HR. The two most likely to reflect current HR are the Canadian Institute of Health Information (CIHI) and Canadian Medical Association (CMA) databases.”
Under the heading Available National Databases, the second item in the bulleted list in the first paragraph that reads “Canadian Institute of Health Research: National Physician Data Base (CIHI-NPDB)” should read “Canadian Institute of Health Information: National Physician Data Base (CIHI-NPDB)”. The third item in the same list that reads “Canadian Institute of Health Research: Scott’s Medical Data Base (CIHI-SMDB)” should read “Canadian Institute of Health Information: Scott’s Medical Data Base (CIHI-SMDB)”.
Under the heading Comparison of National GI Workforce Numbers by Database and Trends, the first sentence, “As shown in Table 2, there is considerable overlap, and some differences, between the sources of data for the Canadian Institute of Health Research: Scott’s Medical Data Base (CIHISMDB) and Canadian Medical Association (CMA) databases” should read “As shown in Table 2, there is considerable overlap, and some differences, between the sources of data for the Canadian Institute of Health Information: Scott’s Medical Data Base (CIHISMDB) and Canadian Medical Association (CMA) databases.”
