Preparedness for practice has become an international theme within Medical Education: healthcare systems to maintain their highest clinical standards, junior doctors must "hit the ground running" on beginning work. Despite demonstrating logical, structured assessment and management plans during undergraduate examinations, many newly qualified report difficulty in translating this theoretical knowledge into real environment. "Preparedness" constitute more than skills acquired medical school....
In the latest "Connections" article, Church and Brown use concept of 'critical mass' to explain how stigma, lack career pathways prioritization clinical seniority may discourage non‐practicing clinicians from becoming educationalists.
Explore the term "Social Justice" in this new "When I Say" article. The authors consider its origin, advocate for a broader definition, and encourage renewed focus field.
Introduction: Medical school graduates in the UK consistently report feeling underprepared for task of prescribing when embarking on practice. The effective application self-regulated learning (SRL) approaches and feedback complex tasks are associated with improved outcomes practice-based clinical skills.Aims: This study aimed to investigate effectiveness an educational intervention using SRL-enhanced video improving competency junior doctors.Methods: A prospective cohort was designed...
Medical Educators face an ongoing challenge in optimizing preparedness for practice newly qualified doctors. Junior doctors have highlighted specific areas which they do not feel adequately equipped to undertake their duties, including managing the acutely unwell patient. In these highly stressful, time-critical scenarios it might be assumed that a lack of knowledge underpins feelings apprehension from junior medics; however, having studied, trained and passed examinations demonstrate such...
Doctors experience a range of negative reactions when managing acutely unwell patients. These may manifest as emotions or behaviors. Without appropriate coping strategies, these and behaviors can impede optimal clinical performance, which directly affects patient care. Athletes use performance enhancing routines (PERs) to minimize the effect their on competitive performance. The authors investigated whether PERs could similarly improve recently qualified doctors' emotional behavioral control...

Thyroid function was assessed by measurement of free thyroid hormones and thyrotrophin (TSH) in 78 acutely ill elderly patients a control group without acute illness. Abnormal results with any test were more frequently found the than controls. In particular, abnormal TSH values 40% only 8% controls (p < 0.001). Seven subjects had very low levels ( <0.04 mU/1) blunted response to thyroid-releasing hormone (TRH). With few exceptions these abnormalities could not be attributed disease. This...
