The New Consultation: Developing doctor-patient communication

Pendleton, David, Schofield, Theo, Tate, Peter, Havelock, Peter·2003·Oxford University Press eBooks

Abstract

The consultation is 'the central act of medicine': the meeting between the patient and the doctor. The first part of this resource takes the reader from the context of the consultation in society and with the medical profession, to the intimacy of the consulting room, and then delves into its processes, and the second half takes the reader into the practicalities of learning and teaching effective consultations. It is an essential aid for all doctors and their educators to increase the effectiveness of their consultations and to help to make them more patient-centred. It includes theoretical background as well as practical help for both consulters and teachers.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
