Abstract:
BACKGROUND: Health Information disclosure is the cornerstone in respecting the patients’ autonomy and beneficence, particularly in the context of serious illness. Some Middle Eastern cultures prioritise beneficence over patient autonomy. This may be used as a justification when patient’s family takes over the decision-making process. Although guidelines and protocols regarding information disclosure are fast evolving, there are no sufficient data regarding the application of these guidelines in the clinical context. The objective of this study is to explore the truth disclosure practices of physicians in Bahrain. METHOD: In this cross sectional study, a random sample of 234 physicians was obtained from the database of Salmaniya Medical Complex (the largest public hospital in Bahrain). We used self-administered 21-item questionnaire to assess the practices and attitudes of physicians regarding disclosure of information to patients with serious illnesses. RESULTS: A total of 200 physicians completed the questionnaire with a response rate of 69.6%. The question about the usual policy of disclosure revealed that 62.5% (125) of the doctors would always disclose the diagnosis to the patients, 26% (52) would often disclose the diagnosis and only 1% would never disclose the real diagnosis to a competent adult. Only 15% of the physicians would never make exceptions to their policy of “telling the patient” while all remaining physicians (85%) made exceptions to their policy either often, occasionally or rarely. The most common reason for not disclosing the diagnosis was family request (39.5%). About 64.5% of the physicians were not aware of any existing protocol or policy for diagnosis disclosure to patients. There was no statistically significant association between doctors’ policy of disclosure and other demographic variables. CONCLUSION: Most physicians opt to disclose the truth; however, the majority would make exceptions at some point particularly upon family request. Regional truth disclosure policies should take into consideration the interplay and balance between patient autonomy and the role played by the family in the decision-making process.

Abstract:
Introduction: Dengue fever remains a significant public health concern in Singapore. Appropriate, timely diagnosis and risk stratification for severe disease are crucial in the optimal management of this illness. In the outpatient setting, the primary care physician plays a key role in dengue diagnosis, management, and triage. We present a descriptive analysis of the variations in dengue knowledge, attitudes, and practices among primary care physicians (PCPs) in Singapore. Materials and Methods: A survey of 25 multiple-choice questions was mailed to 2000 PCPs in Singapore. Responses were analysed by physician age group (21-40, 41-60, and >61) and practice setting (government subsidised polyclinic or private practice). Results: Of the 3 questions assessing dengue knowledge, 89.9% chose 2 or 3 of the preferred responses. Half of the respondents utilised dengue diagnostic tests at least 50% of the time, and 75% used serology when doing so. Older respondents and those from private practices used diagnostic tests more often than their counterparts, and both groups favoured non-serology tests. About 85% of surveyed PCPs monitored confirmed or suspected cases daily, and one-third referred patients to a hospital always or often. Conclusions: While no major gaps in knowledge about dengue were identified in PCPs in Singapore, there were significant variations in clinical practice by physician age group and practice setting. The results of this survey provide a useful opportunity to identify strengths and areas in need of improved awareness in primary care management of dengue.

Abstract:
Antimicrobial resistance has been one of the biggest global current issues in medicine and public health. Overuse and imprudent use of antimicrobial agents are recognized as one of the leading causes of antibiotic resistance. The aim of this study was to analyze the attitudes of Polish physicians practicing at the community level towards antibiotics and antimicrobial resistance. The majority of physicians taking part in the survey believed that Polish people overuse antibiotics (98%). Most physicians (91%) considered that antimicrobial resistance is a major problem at present. The majority of physicians indicated the reasons for prescribing the antibiotic are related to health factors, such as optimal recovery (best effectiveness, least side effects) (80%), latest therapeutic guidelines (70%) and microbiological/epidemiological factors (63%). Knowledge of the National Recommendations for the management of Community-Acquired Respiratory Tract Infections 2010 (NR-CA-RTI) developed within National Programme for Protection of Antibiotics was declared by 84% of respondents. Among those who are aware of the NR-CA-RTI, the majority follow them in their daily practice (91%). Among physicians, 62% are not familiar with the Centor/McIsaac scores used to differentiate bacterial and viral infections in patients presenting with a sore throat. Among physicians familiar with the scores, 90% use them in their daily practice. Rapid microbiological detection methods for Group A beta-hemolytic streptococcal pharyngitis are used only by 20% of respondents. Almost all of physicians declared readiness to use these tests. Main sources of information on antibiotics prescribing originate from Polish medical journals, scientific conferences organized by medical societies, pharmaceutical companies.

Abstract:
Objective: The purpose of this study was to explore physicians’ attitudes toward different strategies for supporting pain management and opioid prescribing and to identify factors related to their attitudes toward the support strategies.Design/setting/participants/measures: This preliminary cross-sectional study collected and analyzed online survey responses from physicians in Texas and Minnesota (N = 69) between December 2017 and February 2018. Primary outcomes were physicians’ interest in online continuing medical education (CME), mHealth patient monitoring system, and short, non-CME YouTube informational briefs about pain management and opioid prescribing. Multiple logistic regression models were used to examine the associations between physicians’ characteristics, attitudes, training, experience, practice setting, and their interest in three different support strategies.Results: About 51-58 percent of physicians indicated moderate-to-extreme interest in online CME (54 percent), mHealth monitoring (58 percent), and short, non-CME YouTube informational briefs (51 percent). Physicians, who practiced in a medium or large practice setting, were less likely to be interested in online CME or short, non-CME YouTube informational briefs. Physicians who prescribed a small number of Schedule II opioids were more likely to be interested in short, non-CME YouTube informational briefs and mHealth monitoring.Conclusions: Findings suggest that physicians may have different preferences in strategies for supporting their pain management and opioid prescribing practices. Future studies are needed to better understand the mechanisms underlying physicians’ interest in different support strategies.

Abstract:
Objectives: Our aim was to investigate the attitudes of physicians in Jordan toward non-disclosure and the differential attitudes of physicians who are “always truthful” and those who are not. Methods: Our report is based on the second subset of data from a cross-sectional study of the truth disclosure practices and attitudes of physicians in Jordan, which was conducted between January and August 2016. We selected 240 physicians from four major hospitals by stratified random sampling, and we invited them to complete a self-administered questionnaire regarding truth disclosure attitudes. We compared the attitudes of physicians who were “always” truthful and those who were not. Results: In total, 164 physicians (68%) completed the questionnaire, of whom 17 (10%) were “always truthful”, while the remaining 144 (90%) were not. Physicians who were “always truthful” were more likely to indicate that non-disclosure is “unethical” (77% v. 39%; p=0.009). Moreover, physicians who were “always truthful” were more likely to disagree that non-disclosure is beneficial for the physical and psychological health of patients (82% v. 55%; p=0.03). The majority of physicians agreed that all patients have the right to know their diagnosis, most patients prefer to know their diagnosis, and the introduction of legislation to enforce disclosure would positively affect medical practice in Jordan. Conclusion: The differential attitudes of physicians who were “always truthful” and those who were “not always truthful” suggest a rationale behind independent non-disclosure, namely that non-disclosure is ethically justifiable and beneficial for the physical and psychological health of patients.Keywords: Truth Disclosure • Physicians • Attitude • Jordan • Middle East • Cross-Sectional Studies

Abstract:
Abstract Background Prescribing opioids for chronic noncancer pain (CNCP) has been strictly regulated in Taiwan. This study was undertaken to survey pain and non-pain related physicians’ knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding prescribing opioids for CNCP. Methods A questionnaire survey was conducted in this comparison study. All 66 physicians who were treating officially registered CNCP outpatients were visited and completed anonymous questionnaires. The other physicians (anesthesiologists, oncologists, and non-pain physicians) were surveyed by a mailed questionnaire. Results A total of 266 (75%) questionnaires were received from 355 board-certified physicians. More CNCP physicians (81.8%) and anesthesiologists (69.7%) had received prior CNCP-related training courses than had oncologists (21.2%) and non-pain physicians (10.3%). Varied proportions of physicians by type were unfamiliar with the Taiwan opioid regulations (16.7–86.8%) and would accordingly skip or reduce dosage of opioid prescriptions (27.3–73.5%). In addition, non-pain physicians had a significantly lower knowledge level, more negative attitudes, and greater hesitation about prescribing opioids compared to the pain-related physicians (P < 0.001). CNCP physicians who had received CNCP-related training courses had a higher knowledge score than did those not receiving training (P = 0.002). Overall, the leading barriers for prescribing opioids were inadequate knowledge of pain management (76%), physician reluctance (73%), and family reluctance (78%). Conclusion There are substantial knowledge gaps, negative attitudes, and hesitation toward prescribing long-term opioids for CNCP patients by physicians in Taiwan, suggesting that efforts are needed to improve postgraduate education regarding adequate opioid management for CNCP.

Abstract:
Mini-dissertation'submitted in partial compliance with the requirements for the Master's Degree in Technology: Homoeopathy, Durban Institute of Technology, 2005.
Homoeopathy in South Africa is a relatively new health profession, and there seems to be limited awareness of homoeopathy amongst the public and healthcare authorities. The national health care system in South Africa is currently undergoing major restructuring, with the focus on primary health care. The homoeopathic community needs to reflect on its role in public health care. However, in order to gain acceptance and understanding from other health care professions, meaningful research needs to be conducted. There is an urgent need to investigate the views of conventional health care professionals towards homoeopathy. A survey method was employed to investigate the perceptions of homoeopathy of two major groups in the medical community in the Greater Durban area: General Practitioners (GPs) and pharmacists. The study was carried out by using a questionnaire as a measuring tool. The sample of GPs was drawn from the medical pages of the Durban Telephone Directory (October 2003/2004) and the sample of pharmacists was drawn from the Durban Yellow Pages (October 2003/2004). A total of 484 questionnaires were distributed and a total of 155 responses were received. The percentage of return of questionnaires was 32,02%. The original sample size was 370 for GPs and 114 for pharmacists. A total of 97 GPs and 58 pharmacists responded. The response rate was 26,22% for GPs and 50,87% for pharmacists.

Abstract:
Submitted in fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree in Masters of Technology in Chiropractic, Durban University of Technology, Durban, South Africa, 2018.
Background: There have been an increased number of patients using complementary alternative medicine (CAM), including chiropractic care. All population age groups are utilising chiropractic treatment for various ailments. Research has shown that general practitioners have limited knowledge and perception about chiropractic in many countries. Their perception towards other health care professionals is important, particularly in their role as gatekeepers in the health care system. The current perception in Zimbabwe is thought to be no referral of patients between general practitioners and chiropractors and a low degree of knowledge amongst general practitioners about chiropractic. Aim: The aim of this study was to determine the knowledge, utilisation and perceptions of general practitioners in Harare, Zimbabwe. Objectives: • To establish the knowledge about chiropractic amongst general practitioners in Harare, Zimbabwe. • To determine perceived role and utilisation of chiropractic by general practitioners in Harare, Zimbabwe. • To determine the relationships, if any, between knowledge, perception, and utilisation of chiropractic by general practitioners in Harare, Zimbabwe. Methods: The study was a descriptive, quantitative, cross-sectional study using a structured questionnaire adapted from similar studies. The questionnaire was validated by means of a focus group discussion. The survey was conducted on a random sample of 72 general practitioners practising in the Avenues area of Harare, Zimbabwe. A single stage sampling techniques was used to select participants from a list of 88 registered general practitioners from the Medical and Dental Practitioners Council of Zimbabwe who met the inclusion criteria. Questionnaires were provided to general practitioners who were in private practice in the Avenues area of Harare, Zimbabwe at the time of the study by the researcher. The data collected was analysed using the Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS)® 2.4 (IBM, Armonk, NY. USA) software at a statistical significance of p<0.05. Pearson’s correlation was used to assess the relationship between continuous variables, while the t test was used to copmare the mean scores between independent binary variables. Results: Many of the participants had some kind of knowledge regarding chiropractic modalities, areas of chiropractic specialisation but only a few had adequate knowledge and a good perception of it. General practitioners who were knowledgeable about chiropractic tended to have a positive perception and were more likely to refer patients to a chiropractor. A response rate of 54.5 percent was achieved. Most of the respondents tended to be in the age group of 35-54 and most were female (54.2 percent). Over 90 percent of the participants referred patients with musculoskeletal complaints to physiotherapists while only 16.67 percent referred to chiropractors. More than 65 percent of the participants responded that they knew something about chiropractic, and of these almost 50 percent obtained their information from the media. Over 80 percent of the participants who knew something about chiropractic thought that extremities, neuro-musculoskeletal system, rehabilitation and sports injuries were areas chiropractors can specialise in. Almost all the participants who knew something about chiropractic were aware of adjustments or manipluation of joints as modalities of chiropractic treatment. Majority (75.8 percent) of the participants who knew something about chiropractic thought that chiropractic could help selected conditions, while only 3 percent felt it was not effective and 21.2 percent felt they were not informed enough to comment. GP’s surveyed considered chronic back pain (91 percent), sports trauma (85 percent), shoulder/knee problems (79 percent), arthritis (76 percent), back and pelvic problems during pregnancy (70 percent), nerve root entrapment (70 percent) and carpal tunnel syndromme (70 percent) as some of the appropriate conditions for chiropractors to treat. Forty two percent of the GP’s referred patients to chiropractors mostly on both the patient’s request and their own judgment. The main reason for not referring patients to chiropractors cited by most (70 percent) of the GPs was limited knowledge about chiropractic care. There was a statistically significant and moderately high positive correlation between knowledge and perception scores (r=0.668). This study suggests that GP’s who have a higher degree of knowledge about chiropractic tend to have a positive perception of chiropractic. There was a non-significant difference in knowledge between those who refer patients and those who do not (p=0.425). In this study knowlegde about chiropractic did not significantly influence referral to chiropractors. There was however a statistically significant difference in perception between those who refer patients and those who do not (p=0.006). The perceptions were higher in those who refer patients compared to those who do not refer patients. Perceptions were found to determine utilisation rather than knowledge even though there was a correlation between the two.

Abstract:
Background: In South Africa there data is lacking on the health of the older population. This study aims to report on actions taken by general practitioners on abnormal blood pressure, blood glucose and osteoporosis screen identified by registered nurses, conducting home based visits to older clients. Methods An agency piloted the Comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA) tool in an urban affluent population. In this cross sectional secondary study analysis, 465 participants aged 60 years and over had a nurse visit in their homes and a subsequent General Practitioner (GP) visit. The prevalence of specific geriatric problems was assessed as well as the frequency of initiated procedures by the GP. This study will focus on initiated actions by the General Practitioners in response to abnormal blood pressures, blood glucose, and osteoporosis screen. Results Frequency tables were utilised to identify prevalence of the abnormal blood pressures, blood glucose and osteoporosis screen. . Abnormal blood pressures were detected (230/465, 49%) of the subjects , the GP initiated actions on only 15/465 (3.2%) of clients. Abnormal blood sugars were detected 106/465 (23%) of the GP initiated actions on 23/465 (5%) of clients. Clinical risk factors for the development of osteoporosis were detected in 252 /465 (54%) subjects GP initiated actions on 11/465 (3%) Conclusion This study explored the relationships between comprehensive geriatric assessment and subsequent GP actions and found using the CGA in this population will be successful in identifying abnormal health findings which will enable intervention. However, due to challenges in the communications and marketing of this service, GP’s were not well informed of their role and did not act on majority of the abnormal findings detected by nurses

Abstract:
Introduction Since the 1994 change in power in South Africa, there have been many necessary changes in health legislation (HL), in accordance with the principles enshrined in the Constitution, Such changes have been recognized as being both complex and fraught with stakeholder interests. There is a perception that private family practitioners (FP) generally harbour negative attitudes towards HL that has been brought into effect in recent years. It is also possible that FP, in general, lack knowledge regarding HL. The aim of the study was to assess the knowledge and attitudes of private family practitioners (FP) to health legislation (HL) within a localized geographical area of the eThekweni Metro, KwaZulu-Natal Province. The specific objectives were: To determine family practitioners’ knowledge of health legislation. To determine family practitioners’ attitudes towards health legislation. To assess the correlation between family practitioners’ knowledge and attitudes. To compare the self-reported knowledge of health legislation with the objective assessment of knowledge and attitudes. To establish practitioners’ perceptions of the future of the profession, and of family practice in particular. Methods A cross-sectional descriptive and analytical study was performed, using a pre-tested, validated, structured questionnaire. This instrument was personally hand-delivered to each of a group of private family practitioners practising within a confined geographical area. The sample comprised of 101 family practitioners. Data were analysed using SPSS version 15.0 (SPSS Inc., Chicago, Illinois). Results The study revealed that private FP possess limited knowledge about HL and have a negative attitude in general towards HL. The mean knowledge score was 55% (standard deviation 12.2%). The mean score for attitudes towards health legislation was 46,3% (standard deviation 4.2%). The correlation coefficient between knowledge and attitudes was 0.244 (p=0.022). Therefore, there was a weak positive, but statistically significant, correlation between knowledge and attitudes. Thus, in general, as knowledge increased, so did attitudes improve and become more positive. The self reported knowledge and attitudes of FPs seemed to show some unexpected though non-statistically significant anomaly, in that FPs who considered themselves “well aware” of certain parts of HL, together with those who were “not aware”, reporting a more negative attitude towards HL than those who considered themselves to be “aware”. FPs’ perceptions of the future of the profession, and of family practice in particular, were generally reported as being reasonable to poor. Financial viability and sustainability of FP, in particular, were reported as being reasonable to poor. The attractiveness of the profession to the youth of today was reported as being poorer than in the past. However, the majority of FP held the perception that medicine as a profession was distinct as it responds to a calling to serve society at large, giving this aspect of the question a ranking of “reasonable to good”. Conclusion and Recommendations The study revealed that this group of FPs attained an overall mean knowledge score of 55% with respect to HL. FPs’ knowledge of HL requires improvement, which can be achieved through effective education and training programmes. Private FPs need to embrace the change process, but also need to be more pro-active in vocalizing their opinions. The Health Ministry and relevant authorities and policymakers need to play a greater role in creating an atmosphere that embraces and facilitates change by involving iii relevant stakeholders. Lastly, it is recommended that this study serve as a template for a broader research project involving larger numbers of participants and a wider geographical area. In addition, an intervention tool should be devised. Such a tool could take the form of a structured education programme on HL, with an associated monitoring and evaluation aspect, which would enable an assessment of the intervention programme in terms of its value and the influence it has on improving knowledge and attitudes.
