Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume presents novel concepts to help physicians and health care providers better understand the thought processes and approaches used in clinical decision-making and how we develop those skills as we transition from being a medical student to post-graduate trainee to independent practitioner. Approaches presented range from simple rules of thumb, pattern recognition, and heuristics, to more formulaic methods such as standard operating procedures, checklists, evidence-based medicine, mathematical modeling, and statistics. Ways to recognize and manage errors and how our decision-making can be improved, are also discussed. An Introduction to Medical Decision-Making presents several innovative techniques to allow the reader to use the principles presented and integrate the ethical, humanistic and social aspects of decision-making with the pragmatic and knowledge-based aspects of clinical medicine. It also highlights how our thinking processes, emotions, and biases affect decision-making. This invaluable resource will allow students and physicians to evaluate and critically discuss their decisions objectively to become more efficient and effective, and maximize the quality of care they provide.

This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cancer care in many countries is delivered by healthcare professionals working together as multidisciplinary teams (MDTs). In the UK the delivery of care by MDTs is mandatory. The aims of the research reported here were to investigate the factors that affect the quality of clinical decision-making in MDT meetings, to develop and evaluate tools to measure this process, and to use these tools to evaluate interventions designed to improve the quality of such decisions. The introduction presents an overview of the evidence for clinical decision-making in MDT meetings, before Chapter 2 provides a critical appraisal of existing evidence, focussing on specific factors that affect decision-making by MDTs. My first empirical Chapters have explored the attitudes and experiences of MDT members and patients. Chapters 3 and 4 present analyses of national survey data that explore the views of MDT members from different professional groups across a range of tumour types. Chapters 5 and 6 present data from in-depth exploration of the views of urology MDT members and cancer patients respectively. Chapters 8 and 9 present data from studies that develop and cross-validate an observational tool for the assessment of decision-making in MDT meetings (MDT-MODe). I have used this tool in Chapter 10 to assess the relationship between organisational factors, information use, teamworking and decision-making in urology MDT meetings. Having built up a picture of the factors that are important for good decision-making, Chapter 11 reports a study that uses MDT-MODe to evaluate a multistage intervention to improve the quality of decision-making in urological MDT meetings. Finally, my general discussion reflects on the findings and the wider evidence base, explores the limitations and presents implications of my work for clinical practice, patient care, future research and policy.

Download or read book Achieving Person-Centred Health Systems written by Ellen Nolte and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2020-08-06 with total page 421 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The idea of person-centred health systems is widely advocated in political and policy declarations to better address health system challenges. A person-centred approach is advocated on political, ethical and instrumental grounds and believed to benefit service users, health professionals and the health system more broadly. However, there is continuing debate about the strategies that are available and effective to promote and implement 'person-centred' approaches. This book brings together the world's leading experts in the field to present the evidence base and analyse current challenges and issues. It examines 'person-centredness' from the different roles people take in health systems, as individual service users, care managers, taxpayers or active citizens. The evidence presented will not only provide invaluable policy advice to practitioners and policymakers working on the design and implementation of person-centred health systems but will also be an excellent resource for academics and graduate students researching health systems in Europe. This title is available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Robotic surgery is at the forefront of surgical innovation and presents novel challenges for both postgraduate learners and seasoned specialists. Robotic teaching is underway, often without formalized robotic curricula. Research into robotic surgical steps and surgical decision-making that should be imparted to learners has been neglected. As such, I aimed to determine the knowledge gap of urology residents for a robotic prostatectomy. Further, I also aimed to determine the patterns and cognitive rules used by experienced surgeons to complete a robotic prostatectomy. This master's thesis included a knowledge gap survey, completed by urology residents, and compared to urologic oncologists, of a robotic prostatectomy and contained both open-ended and rating scale questions. A cognitive task analysis (CTA) was then performed as a series of semi-structured interviews in which incident-probing questions were used to make urologic oncologists explain visual cues and decision-making processes. 42 surveys were administered to urology residents and urologists at The Ottawa Hospital over 10 weeks. There was disagreement between urology resident and urologist responses from the rating scale responses, from the following procedural steps: vesicourethral anastomosis, apical dissection, and seminal vesicle dissection. The open-ended responses found discrepancies between the residents' and urologists'; understanding of anatomy and surgical decision-making, and of cause-and-consequence cognitive awareness. Subsequently, 16 CTA interviews of four urologic oncologists were completed. After data coding and thematic analysis was performed, CTA grids for each surgeon described a map of a robotic prostatectomy including the steps and goals of the procedure, procedural landmarks, key visual cues for each step, complications and/or error prevention, and management. Specific content not yet described in the literature also includes how the lack of haptic feedback is compensated by robotic surgeons. Additional findings included a gap in urology resident knowledge and understanding of a robotic prostatectomy. The CTA of a robotic prostatectomy documented the surgical decision-making rules, patterns and visual cues urologic oncologists use to avoid errors, and to manage intraoperative surgical complications. This information is key to expanding the understanding of robotic prostatectomy surgical decision-making and training and can be used to produce robust robotic educational curricula.
