Texto completo
Resumen
Patients' non-adherence to treatment is a widespread phenomenon in healthcare. Time preferences (how individuals value outcomes over time) are one cause for non-adherence. Using quasi-hyperbolic discounting, two options in the future are weighted consistently. However, when the early option becomes available the weighting changes. This creates the potential for non-adherence. The agency relationship that exists between patients and doctors implies hidden information. When the patient's time preferences are hidden from the doctor, the doctor must choose how to recommend treatments. Exploring how doctors make treatment decisions when time preferences are hidden from them, and how this impacts adherence, is therefore important. The first contribution of the thesis is to outline a model of the patient-doctor interaction incorporating quasi-hyperbolic discounting and hidden information. This shows that doctors should adapt to non-adherence when the probability a patient is present-biased is large enough. Secondly, a national survey of Scottish GPs explores whether doctors have different time preferences for themselves or their patients. Doctors do have the same private and professional time preferences, but value the health state differently between frames. Lastly, a laboratory experiment tests whether students in the role of a doctor adapt to non-adherence in the way predicted by the model. Students find the socially optimal level of treatment on average. Adaptation is stronger when using a performance payment, and results did not vary along demographic characteristics. The thesis highlights the importance of the patient-doctor interaction for generating nonadherence, not just patient preferences. It also shows that GPs' private time preferences may suitably substitute their preferences for patients. Finally, it points towards potential incentives for doctors to improve patient outcomes.

Webb, Helena. "Doctor-patient interactions during medical consultations about obesity". Thesis, University of Nottingham, 2009. http://eprints.nottingham.ac.uk/10818/.

Texto completo
Resumen
The current “obesity epidemic” is a global concern for governments and healthcare organisations. Obesity is seen as a medical problem of excess body weight which can be resolved through interventions to encourage weight loss, most particularly diet and exercise regimes. Much existing sociological work focuses on moral understandings of obesity as a perceived symbol of individual greed and laziness in a culture that prioritises self-control and effort. This neglects the ways in which the condition is actively discussed and managed in relevant settings such as medical encounters. This thesis addresses this research gap by analysing talk during obesity-related medical consultations. Talk is central to all medical encounters and has particular resonance in treatments for obesity where most interventions are carried out by the patient away from the medical gaze. Patients must report on their treatment behaviours in ways that enable practitioners to evaluate them and offer further relevant advice. Talk is not only a means through which treatment is delivered but a form of treatment itself. Fieldwork took place in two UK NHS outpatient clinics specialising in weight loss treatment for obese patients. A sample of 18 patients and 1 doctor consented to have their consultations video-recorded over a period of 9 months. This resulted in 39 recorded interactions which were analysed according to the principles of Conversation Analysis (CA) to identify recurring patterns of interaction. The thesis describes how talk between doctor and patient functions to achieve certain tasks. In particular, it analyses how the specific institutional setting shapes and is shaped by talk. A dominant theme is that clinic interactions frequently invoke normative issues concerning knowledge, responsibility and effort. These issues are consistent with moral dynamics perceived to surround the condition of obesity and patient responsibilities. Doctor and patient collaboratively construct obesity as a moral issue. This has consequences for the conduct of the consultation. The findings extend existing CA knowledge on medical interactions and demonstrate the utility of an interactional approach to the sociological study of obesity. They also have relevance to healthcare policy and practice.

MA, Hok Ka Carol. "Explaining older-patient and doctor relationship through negotiation". Digital Commons @ Lingnan University, 2006. https://commons.ln.edu.hk/soc_etd/21.

Texto completo
Resumen
This thesis attempts to explain the older-patients and doctors’ relationship through negotiation. The relationship between older-patients and their doctors is important because, first, the patient-doctor relationship is basic to the health care system and is a foundation for all patient care; second, populations are ageing and this group often has a higher incidence of chronic illnesses. Therefore, the older patient-doctor consultation becomes of paramount importance in enabling patients and the health care system to manage their illnesses effectively. This thesis describes a negotiation process (from reception, consultation, to outcome) and outcome patterns between older patients and doctors in medical consultation. It could be explained by the symbolic interaction perspective. Simply, both patients and doctors had gone through many internal thoughts and came to each other with a purpose or an expected outcome before the negotiation (i.e. the styles). Then there were gives and takes during the negotiation process (i.e. the consultation process), establishing a final equilibrium of a relationship falling into the 16 negotiation patterns developed. The study has been undertaken three principal methods in addition to reviewing the published literature.

Resumen
Depression and anxiety are common in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD). As well as reducing health related quality of life, psychological problems can be a barrier to recovery and to making the necessary lifestyle changes to prevent worsening of cardiac health. A report on cardiac rehabilitation services in South East London (Marks & Filer, 2005) identified gaps in the services provided: not all CHD patients receive psychological support. Reviews of psycho-educational programmes in cardiac rehabilitation (Dusseldorp 1999 and Bennett & Carroll 1994) have found that group interventions can be effective in reducing emotional distress, targeting risk factors and increasing active coping. Cognitive behavioural techniques such as goal setting and evidence checking have been found to be effective when working with CHD patients (Lewin 2002). A psycho-education session based on cognitive behavioural techniques was designed and delivered to CHD patients as part of their usual Phase III cardiac rehabilitation programme in 3 hospitals in South East London. Two types of session were delivered: one individualised and interactive, the other generic and didactic in style. The format and content of the intervention is outlined in a manual and the same manual was used to deliver the session each time. All patients received a written handout summarising the session. Patients were randomly allocated to the control or intervention group. Outcomes were measured by HADS, Dartmouth COOP and a behavioural questionnaire before and after the session. Results showed high levels of patient satisfaction with the intervention in terms of usefulness and feeling comfortable and accepted in the group format. There was no significant difference in HADS scores over time, or between groups. This project is a case study for the complexities of carrying out research with limited resources in the setting of the NHS and highlights the role of practice-based evidence.

Resumen

Climate change has become responsible for substantial mortality and morbidity around the world. These numbers are said to rise, as climate change will continue to have both direct and indirect effects on human health, as well as threaten the determinants of health. Some health effects include asthma, respiratory disease, cancer, cardiovascular disease, stroke, health-related illness, human developmental effects, mental illness, neurological disease, vector-borne disease, waterborne disease, and more. Given the implications it carries on human health, climate change should be of fundamental relevance to doctors and future doctors alike. The aim of this thesis is to explore the importance of preparing doctors and student doctors for a climate-changing world. This includes developing skills and insights necessary in a clinical practice and a public health role. The research methods in this thesis is sought to identify if future doctors are being prepared and are willing to take action against climate change and the health implications it poses. The focus is also to identify the perceptions of doctors on climate change and its health risks, as little is known about this. Through theoretical and quantitative evidence, the goal is to provide insight on the role future doctors, who are both prepared and willing to take actions, can play in influencing patients to participate in climate change mitigation.

Resumen
As a student undertaking a Longitudinal Integrated Clerkship (LIC)1 based in a GP practice in a rural community in the North of Scotland, I have been lucky to be given responsibility and my own clinic lists. Every day I conduct consultations that change my practice: the challenge of clinically applying the theory I have studied, controlling a consultation and efficiently exploring a patient's problems, empathising with and empowering them to play a part in their own care2 – and most difficult I feel – dealing with the vast amount of uncertainty that medicine, and particularly primary care, presents to both clinician and patient. I initially consulted with a lady in her 60s who attended with her husband, complaining of severe lower back pain who was very difficult to assess due to her pain level. Her husband was understandably concerned about the degree of pain she was in. After assessment and discussion with one of the GPs, we agreed some pain relief and a physio assessment in the next few days would be a practical plan. The patient had one red flag, some leg weakness and numbness, which was her ‘normal’ on account of her multiple sclerosis. At the physio assessment a few days later, the physio felt things were worse and some urgent bloods were ordered, unfortunately finding raised cancer and inflammatory markers. A CT scan of the lung found widespread cancer, a later CT of the head after some developing some acute confusion found brain metastases, and a week and a half after presenting to me, the patient sadly died in hospital. While that was all impactful enough on me, it was the follow-up appointment with the husband who attended on the last triage slot of the evening two weeks later that I found completely altered my understanding of grief and the mourning of a loved one. The husband had asked to speak to a Andrew MacFarlane Year 3 ScotGEM Medical Student 2 doctor just to talk about what had happened to his wife. The GP decided that it would be better if he came into the practice - strictly he probably should have been consulted with over the phone due to coronavirus restrictions - but he was asked what he would prefer and he opted to come in. I sat in on the consultation, I had been helping with any examinations the triage doctor needed and I recognised that this was the husband of the lady I had seen a few weeks earlier. He came in and sat down, head lowered, hands fiddling with the zip on his jacket, trying to find what to say. The GP sat, turned so that they were opposite each other with no desk between them - I was seated off to the side, an onlooker, but acknowledged by the patient with a kind nod when he entered the room. The GP asked gently, “How are you doing?” and roughly 30 seconds passed (a long time in a conversation) before the patient spoke. “I just really miss her…” he whispered with great effort, “I don’t understand how this all happened.” Over the next 45 minutes, he spoke about his wife, how much pain she had been in, the rapid deterioration he witnessed, the cancer being found, and cruelly how she had passed away after he had gone home to get some rest after being by her bedside all day in the hospital. He talked about how they had met, how much he missed her, how empty the house felt without her, and asking himself and us how he was meant to move forward with his life. He had a lot of questions for us, and for himself. Had we missed anything – had he missed anything? The GP really just listened for almost the whole consultation, speaking to him gently, reassuring him that this wasn’t his or anyone’s fault. She stated that this was an awful time for him and that what he was feeling was entirely normal and something we will all universally go through. She emphasised that while it wasn’t helpful at the moment, that things would get better over time.3 He was really glad I was there – having shared a consultation with his wife and I – he thanked me emphatically even though I felt like I hadn’t really helped at all. After some tears, frequent moments of silence and a lot of questions, he left having gotten a lot off his chest. “You just have to listen to people, be there for them as they go through things, and answer their questions as best you can” urged my GP as we discussed the case when the patient left. Almost all family caregivers contact their GP with regards to grief and this consultation really made me realise how important an aspect of my practice it will be in the future.4 It has also made me reflect on the emphasis on undergraduate teaching around ‘breaking bad news’ to patients, but nothing taught about when patients are in the process of grieving further down the line.5 The skill Andrew MacFarlane Year 3 ScotGEM Medical Student 3 required to manage a grieving patient is not one limited to general practice. Patients may grieve the loss of function from acute trauma through to chronic illness in all specialties of medicine - in addition to ‘traditional’ grief from loss of family or friends.6 There wasn’t anything ‘medical’ in the consultation, but I came away from it with a real sense of purpose as to why this career is such a privilege. We look after patients so they can spend as much quality time as they are given with their loved ones, and their loved ones are the ones we care for after they are gone. We as doctors are the constant, and we have to meet patients with compassion at their most difficult times – because it is as much a part of the job as the knowledge and the science – and it is the part of us that patients will remember long after they leave our clinic room.
