Humor in the physician-patient encounter.
M edicine is serious business, but physicians have always tried to balance the heavier aspects of their work with humor and lightness. Hippocrates, for example, wrote that physicians should cultivate a serious and respectable image, but at the same time he advised them to use wit in interacting with their patients because “dourness is repulsive both to the healthy and to the sick.” While humor ...
متن کاملThe physician-patient encounter: the physician as a perfect agent for the patient versus the informed treatment decision-making model.
Assuming a goal of arriving at a treatment decision which is based on the physician's knowledge and the patient's preferences, we discuss the feasibility of implementing two treatment decision-making models: (1) the physician as a perfect agent for the patient, and (2) the informed treatment decision-making models. Both models fall under the rubric of agency models, however, the requirements fr...

متن کاملA computer program for simulating time travel and a possible 'solution' for the grandfather paradox
While the possibility of time travel in physics is still debated, the explosive growth of virtual-reality simulations opens up new possibilities to rigorously explore such time travel and its consequences in the digital domain. Here we provide a computational model of time travel and a computer program that allows exploring digital time travel. In order to explain our method we formalize a simp...
متن کاملComputer-based documentation: effect on parent and physician satisfaction during a pediatric health maintenance encounter.
OBJECTIVE To investigate the impact of a computer-based documentation (CBD) tool on parent and physician satisfaction with a pediatric health maintenance encounter. DESIGN The project used a preintervention and postintervention design. The preintervention group visits used paper-based forms for data entry, whereas the postintervention visits used CBD. At the conclusion of each encounter, both...
