What works in appraisal meetings for newly graduated doctors? - and what doesn't?

Background: In Denmark a national formal advisory program (NFAP) is mandatory in Postgraduate Medical Education (PGME). According to this, an educational advisor is assigned to each doctor in every clinical rotation to guide and oversee the work and learning progress of the trainee. This study explores why newly graduated trainees evaluated the appraisal meetings in the advisory program as either beneficial (successes) or not beneficial (non-successes).

A SWOT analysis of how the youngest doctors perceive the formal Danish educational advisory programme.

Introduction: A national formal advisory programme (NFAP) was introduced in Denmark in 1998. This study investigates the implementation of the NFAP and identifies areas to improve.

Methods: In March 2017, a survey was conducted among all 129 doctors employed in the first rotation of postgraduate medical education in the Central Denmark Region.

Prevalence and geographical distribution of insulin pump therapy in the Central Denmark Region and its association with metabolic parameters.

Aims: Insulin treatment in type 1 diabetes encompasses multiple daily insulin injections (MDI) or continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII). Both population-based studies and comparative studies regarding CSII use are sparse. The aim of the current study was to describe the prevalence and distribution of CSII use among adults with type 1 diabetes in the Central Denmark Region and to compare metabolic control in CSII-treated patients to those treated with MDI.

3-Month Results from Denmark within the Globally Prospective and Observational Study to Evaluate Insulin Detemir Treatment in Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes: The PREDICTIVE Study.

PREDICTIVEtrade mark is a large, multi-national, open-label, prospective, observational study to assess the efficacy and safety of insulin detemir in clinical practice. We report 3-month follow-up data from 389 patients with type 1 (n = 312) and type 2 (n = 77) diabetes from Denmark. Insulin detemir improved glycemic control in type 1 patients, with decreases in mean HbA1c (-0.

[Appropriate use of hospital days in medical wards].

Introduction: This study evaluated the incidence of inappropriate use of bed days in Danish medical wards using the European Appropriateness Evaluation Protocol (AEP). Several European countries have used the AEP to assess the appropriateness of hospitalisation days.

Materials And Methods: The study was carried out in four Danish medical wards from October 2004 to January 2005.
