  • The Naturalist Tradition in General Practice
    The Naturalist Tradition in General Practice I, r, McWhinney, MD London, Ontario For me there have been two great satisfactions of medical practice. One has been the depth of human experience which, as physicians, we are privileged to have. The other has been the satisfaction of observing patients with illnesses of all kinds, in their own habitat, and over long periods of time. This is the kind of satisfaction experienced by all naturalists. I would claim that observation of prognosis and to rational therapeutics. The clinician, then, has much in the natural history of disease is the Suppose, for example, people with common with the naturalist. “Natu­ basic science of medicine.

  • A Sociological Approach to the * History of Medicine*
    A SOCIOLOGICAL APPROACH TO THE * HISTORY OF MEDICINE* by THOMAS McKEOWN WHAT HISTORY can teach is a much-discussed question and historians themselves are divided about the answer; what medical history can teach is a question which is not often asked and yet there can be little doubt about the answer. The direction of medical effort, both in service and research, is seriously prejudiced because of lack of the perspective which historical investigation could and should provide. The provision of this perspective, I suggest, should be the main aim of the social historian and I have taken my title from Sigerist's essay on 'The Social History of Medicine' written in 1940. He wrote: 'I would like to draw your attention to a field of studies in the history of medicine that has been greatly neglected in the past. If you open a textbook, any textbook of medical history, and try to find what health conditions were in rural France in the eighteenth century, or what disease meant to the family of an artisan at the same period, you will as a rule not find any information. We know much about the great medical discoveries but very little on whether they were applied or to whom they were applied.' Sigerist ended his essay with these words: 'I think that the sociological approach to the history of medicine not only gives us a better understanding ofthe past but can also help us in planning the future.' On this interpretation, if social history is history with the politics left out, the social history of medicine is medical history with the public interest put in.

  • General Practitioner Perceptions of Clinical Medication Reviews Undertaken by Community Pharmacists
    ORIGINAL SCIENTIFIC PAPERS QUALItatIVE RESEARCH General practitioner perceptions of clinical medication reviews undertaken by community pharmacists Linda Bryant PhD; Gregor Coster PhD; Ross McCormick PhD Department of General Practice and Primary Health ABSTRACT Care, The University of Auckland, Auckland, INtroductioN: Delivery of current health care services focuses on interdisciplinary teams and New Zealand greater involvement of health care providers such as nurses and pharmacists. This requires a change in role perception and acceptance, usually with some resistance to changes. There are few studies inves- tigating the perceptions of general practitioners (GPs) towards community pharmacists increasing their participation in roles such as clinical medication reviews. There is an expectation that these roles may be perceived as crossing a clinical boundary between the work of the GP and that of a pharmacist. MethodS: Thirty-eight GPs who participated in the General Practitioner–Pharmacists Collaboration (GPPC) study in New Zealand were interviewed at the study conclusion. The GPPC study investigated outcomes of a community pharmacist undertaking a clinical medication review in collaboration with a GP, and potential barriers. The GPs were exposed to one of 20 study pharmacists. The semi-structured interviews were recorded and transcribed verbatim then analysed using a general inductive thematic approach. FINdiNGS: The GP balanced two themes, patient outcomes and resource utilisation, which determined the over-arching theme, value. This

Downloaded from British Journal ofOphthalmology, 1988, 72, 733-736 How do general practitioners manage eye disease in the community? P J McDONNELL From the Department ofOphthalmology, St Thomas's Hospital, London SUMMARY A survey of the management of eye disease in the community was carried out in two general practices over a three-month period. During this time there were 238 consultations by patients with ocular symptoms, making up 2-3% of all consultations and giving an annual consultation rate for eye disease of 66 per 1000 persons at risk. The four commonest diagnoses were bacterial conjunctivitis, allergic conjunctivitis, meibomian cyst, and blepharitis, and these accounted for more than 70% of the consultations. A variety of topical and systemic treatments were used, with topical chloramphenicol prescribed in 55% of consultations. Referral to a hospital eye department resulted from 35 consultations, giving a referral rate of 15% of all consultations. copyright. There are few detailed studies assessing the way in Subjects and methods which general practitioners manage eye disease in the community.

  • The Origin of the General Practitioner
    JAMES MACKENZIE LECTURE The origin of the general practitioner I. S. L. LOUDON, DM, FRCGP, DRCOG Wellcome Research Fellow, University of Oxford, and Honorary Archivist, Royal College of General Practitioners /. S. L Loudon This method, attractive at first sight, confuses instead of clarifying the search. It is far too broad and diffuse when it is applied in practice, for it could have applied to the large majority of medical practitioners before 1800, regardless of the appellation by which they were known at the time, and none of them would have recognized the term. None of these three approaches provides a satisfactory answer. The most logical, and to my mind the only satisfactory method, is to identify the period in which, for the first time, there was a substan¬ tial number of medical men, joined by a sense of corporate identity, who adopted and wished to be known by the title of 'general practitioner'. The search for the origin of the general The justification for this approach is that when it practitioner occurred it was more than just a new and fashionable name. It indicated the existence of a group of medical HPHE answer to the question: "When did the general ** practitioners.the new men of the profession.quite practitioner first appear?" depends largely on how distinct define him in historical terms.

    OECD Health Statistics 2021 Definitions, Sources and Methods Physicians by categories Three main categories and eight sub-categories selected for the common module: Generalist medical practitioners (ISCO-08 code: 2211) General practitioners Other generalist (non-specialist) medical practitioners Specialist medical practitioners (ISCO-08 code: 2212) General paediatricians Obstetricians and gynaecologists Psychiatrists Medical group of specialists Surgical group of specialists Other specialists not elsewhere classified Medical doctors not further defined (ISCO-08 code: 2210) The breakdown by categories should be provided for practising physicians where possible. (If not possible, the data can be reported for professionally active physicians or physicians licensed to practise). Notes: - The following criteria are proposed in order to avoid double counting of doctors who have more than one specialty: 1) the predominant (main) area of practice of doctors; or 2) the last specialty for which doctors have received registration. - The number should be at the end of the calendar year. Generalist medical practitioners (ISCO-08 code: 2211) Generalist medical practitioners do not limit their practice to certain disease categories or methods of treatment, and may assume responsibility for the provision of continuing and comprehensive medical care to individuals, families and communities.
