Abstract:

This study is part of a comprehensive investigation of ethical thinking among male and female physicians and nurses. Nine women physicians with different levels of expertise, working in various wards in paediatric clinics at two of the university hospitals in Norway, narrated 37 stories about their experience of being in ethically difficult care situations. All of the interviewees’ narrations were concerned with problems relating to both action ethics and relation ethics. The main focus was on problems in a relation ethics perspective. The most common themes in an action ethics perspective wer

Abstract:

Three marriage and family therapists discuss their experience providing therapy and support interventions for physicians during the COVID-19 pandemic. They present three feminist autoethnographic accounts about the unique intersectionality of their lives as they served physicians on the frontlines of the pandemic whilst also negotiating the pandemic themselves. Three themes from the narratives are presented and explored and implications are given for other therapists whose clinical services for medical care professionals also carried a personal and emotional cost.

INTRODUCTION: The first COVID-19 wave (2020), W1, will remain extraordinary due to its novelty and the uncertainty on how to handle the pandemic. To understand what physicians went through, we collected narratives of frontline physicians working in a Swiss university hospital during W1. METHODS: Physicians in the Division of Internal Medicine of Lausanne University Hospital (CHUV) were invited to send anonymous narratives to an online platform, between 28 April and 30 June 2020. The analysed material consisted of 13 written texts and one audio record. They were examined by means of a narrative

Abstract:

The figure of the doctor has always been surrounded by a heroic aura, warranted by the possession of hard-earned medical knowledge and the tenacious reliance on doctors’ ability to heal and emancipate from pain and suffering. However, recent literary and visual-cultural representations of doctors have unsettled the dominant and homogenized perception of physicians as heroes. Particularly, representations in mainstream books, popular media, and comics, which have predominantly offered unilaterally positive initial portrayals of doctors as superhuman figures, eventually provided people with more

Abstract:

AbstractDespite the high creation cost, annotated corpora are indispensable for robust natural language processing systems. In the clinical field, in addition to annotating medical entities, corpus creators must also remove personally identifiable information (PII). This has become increasingly important in the era of large language models where unwanted memorization can occur. This paper presents a corpus annotated to anonymize personally identifiable information in 1,787 anamneses of work-related accidents and diseases in Spanish. Additionally, we applied a previously released model for Name

Abstract:

BackgroundConventional medical education lacks the lived experiences of patients which may authentically convey the social determinants of health (SDOH) and resulting health disparities. Videos of first-person patient narratives may prove a valuable education tool in this regard. The objective of this study is to investigate how patient demographics, satisfaction with care, and patient-physician relationships influence obstetric patient interest and willingness to contribute to a SDOH video curriculum by sharing their lived experiences through first-person narratives.MethodsStudy design includ

Abstract:

Abstract Purpose Cultures of wellness, defined as shared norms, values, attitudes, and behaviors that promote personal and professional growth and well-being, are robust determinants of professional fulfillment and professional performance. A major and largely overlooked aspect of a culture of wellness in medicine is residents’ perceived appreciation or experience of feeling valued. Considering the pressing workforce and retention challenges that residency programs face, this study addressed the following research questions: How does appreciation at work manifest in the eyes of residents and h

Abstract:

Around 400 BC, Areatus -- one of Hippocrates’ pupils, proclaimed ‘epilepsy is an illness of various shapes and horrible’. Later, Areatus was also one of the people who called the disease ‘sacred’; according to them, a deity had sent a demon to possess the patient, or the patient had been cursed by the moon. The Hippocratic physicians were among the first to attempt to separate the scientific and the cultural/fictional discourses. However, even till the late nineteenth century, medical narratives were intertwined with the fictional narratives that surrounded epilepsy, and these narratives contr

Abstract:

Summary Seen as a crucial historical step in the development of ‘modern’ institutional healthcare, eighteenth-century British naval medicine has traditionally been studied from the point of view of the state and of physicians and surgeons: naval sailors’ attitudes towards health, medicine and their own bodies remain virtually unexplored. Using official and personal sources, this article sketches a ‘patient’s history’ of late-eighteenth- and early-nineteenth-century British ratings. Aiming to counterbalance Foucauldian interpretations, it highlights some of the ways in which individuals, even w

Abstract:

AbstractBackgroundThough graduate medical education (GME) residency training provides positive experiences for many trainees, it may also result in major stressors and negative experiences, particularly for those requiring remediation. Residents requiring remediation may experience feelings of dismay, shame and guilt that can negatively affect their training, self‐efficacy and their medical careers. Power differentials between educators and residents may set the stage for epistemic injustice, which is injustice resulting from the silencing or dismissing a speaker based on identity prejudice. T

Abstract:

Patients present to physicians searching for more than scientific names to call their maladies. They rather enter examination rooms with value-laden narratives of illness, suffering, hopes, and worries. One potentially helpful paradigm, inspired in part by existentialism, is to see patients on a search for meaning. This perspective is particularly important in the seemingly meaningless ruins of modernity. Here, we will summarize Victor Frankl’s account of logotherapy found in his much-circulated book Man’s Search for Meaning and assess the limitations imposed by his religious agnosticism. At b

In 1996, Purdue Pharmaceutical's (Purdue) launched OxyContin, an opioid painkiller, with the largest marketing strategy in pharmaceutical history. Literature has now established that Purdue's marketing of OxyContin was a root cause of the current opioid crisis, responsible for over 600,000 deaths in and beyond North America. Guided by actor-network theory, this study conducted a document analysis and key informant interviews ( n = 18) to examine the processes through which Purdue constructed, mobilized, and embedded their marketing narratives in global health practice and policy environments.

Since the advent of highly active antiretroviral therapy(HAART) in the mid-1990's, HIV in the United States has become a chronic and largely controllable disease. Adherence to therapy is one of the most crucial aspects of HIV treatment and control due to the high risk of viral resistance. The main barriers to successful treatment are now psychosocial and structural, including social stigma and the high burden of disease in vulnerable communities. To improve clinical outcomes, physicians today must learn to engage with their patients on the level of their lived experiences, which include their
