ABGESAGT: Ringvorlesung "Wann ist weniger mehr Medizin?" - "Negotiation of prescribing and de-prescribing in general practice consultations"

Diese Veranstaltung muss krankheitsbedingt abgesagt werden und wird im Herbst nachgeholt!

„Prescribing and (increasingly) de-prescribing activities are part of everyday conversations in general practice, particularly given concerns about over diagnosis and over treatment. Yet we know surprisingly little about how these play out and the role of patients in these interactions. Based on a data set of 46 video-recorded primary care consultations in the consideration of mental health, conversation analysis (CA) was used to explore who initiates talk about treatments and how this is received. Special attention will be given to identifying interactional sources of trouble. This examination will provide an understanding of the ways in which prescribing and deprescribing are interactionally achieved in primary care consultations.“
