Sparing the doctors blushes: the use of sexually explicit films for the purpose of Sexual Attitude Reassessment (SAR) in the training of medical practitioners in Britain during the 1970s
The general reluctance of medical practitioners in postwar Britain to ‘speak of sex’ during healthcare consultations increasingly became a matter of professional concern in the wake of legal reforms and social changes during the 1960s affecting sexual expression and reproductive health, and a growing optimism in the early 1970s concerning the treatment of sexual difficulties. In the mid-1970s, largely as a result of the work of Dr Elizabeth Stanley, Sexual Attitude Reassessment (SAR) seminars were introduced from the USA into some medical schools in Britain, usually as a part of courses that were intended to he...

Exploring graphic pathographies in the medical humanities
While diagrams and visual aids are often used to help patients understand and remember information, the teaching of visual literacy skills in medical education curricula is still in its infancy. In the context of a wider medical humanistic training programme, Michael Green and Kimberly Myers claim that graphic pathographies (book-length comics about illnesses) can be used to teach medical students observational and interpretive skills.1 Along similar lines, Ian Williams highlights the suitability of graphic pathographies as teaching aids for the development of history-taking skills.2 This educational case study describes a...

Power and its applications: a new module in the medical curriculum at Trinity College Dublin
Background and context The use of student-selected modules and the application of the medical humanities was recommended in the General Medical Council Tomorrow's Doctors 2003.1 Since then, increasing attention has been given to the inclusion of the arts and humanities into the medical education framework. It is intended that this would act as a complementary strand to the scientific approach in achieving the outcome of a ‘humane doctor’. Humanities as a group of disciplines develop the interpretive ability and insight of students by demonstrating the connectivity and relevance of art, literature and other disc...

Treatment decision-making in the medical encounter: Comparing the attitudes of French surgeons and their patients in breast cancer care
Conclusion: Most surgeons reported adopting the “some sharing” approach. However, one patient out of three reported that they would have liked to participate more in the TDM process.Practice implications: Surgeons need to ask patients what their preferences for involvement in TDM are and then think about ways to accommodate both their own and patients’ preferences regarding the TDM process to be used in each encounter. In addition, decision aids could be offered to surgeons to help them discuss treatment options with their patients.

Guilt, shame and negative emotion in undergraduate medical education: is there a role for Balint groups?
Balint groups are a structured discussion which explores non-clinical aspects of the doctor–patient relationship. In this commentary piece we describe our experience of a Balint group for final-year medical students in a large regional hospital. We discuss that our participants reported a significant burden of negative emotion, primarily guilt and shame, in attempting to navigate the hospital environment as learners. We note how our participants perceived they would acquire the ability to manage these negative emotions simply by becoming doctors, despite being only a few months from qualification. A cultural shift in...

Thinking outside the black box: The importance of context in understanding the impact of a preoperative education nursing intervention among Chinese cardiac patients
Conclusion: In health care systems where service users are given relatively little information, interventions designed to inform patients about their treatment are likely to have a much greater impact on their psychological health.Practice implications: Providers of services for patients undergoing cardiac surgery in China should be encouraged to incorporate information giving into routine practice, tailored according to individual need.

Critical medical humanities: embracing entanglement, taking risks
What can the medical humanities achieve? This paper does not seek to define what is meant by the medical humanities, nor to adjudicate the exact disciplinary or interdisciplinary knowledges it should offer, but rather to consider what it might be capable of doing. Exploring the many valences of the word ‘critical’, we argue here for a critical medical humanities characterised by: (i) a widening of the sites and scales of ‘the medical’ beyond the primal scene of the clinical encounter; (ii) greater attention not simply to the context and experience of health and illness, but to their constitution at ...

Science fiction and the medical humanities
Research on science fiction within the medical humanities should articulate interpretative frameworks that do justice to medical themes within the genre. This means challenging modes of reading that encourage unduly narrow accounts of science fiction. Admittedly, science studies has moved away from reading science fiction as a variety of scientific popularisation and instead understands science fiction as an intervention in the technoscientific imaginary that calls for investment in particular scientific enterprises, including various biomedical technologies. However, this mode of reading neglects science fiction's critica...
