Objectives: To determine the effects of residents' communication self-assessment and supervisor feedback on residents' communication-competency awareness, on their patient-education competency, and on their patients' opinion.
Methods: The program consisted of the implementation of a communication self-assessment and feedback process using videoed outpatient consultations (video-CAF). Residents wrote down communication learning objectives during the instruction and after each video-CAF session. Residents' patient-education competency was assessed by trained raters, using the CELI instrument. Participating patients completed a questionnaire about the contact with their physician.
Results: Forty-four residents and 21 supervisors participated in 87 video-CAF sessions. After their first video-CAF session, residents wrote down more learning objectives addressing their control and rapport skills and their listening skills. Video-CAF participation improved residents' patient-education competency, but only in their control and rapport skills. Video-CAF participation had no effect on patients' opinion.
Conclusions: Video-CAF appears to be a feasible procedure and might be effective in improving residents' patient-education competency in clinical practice.
Practice Implications: Video-CAF could fill the existing deficiency of communication training in residency programs.

Prudent Physician Anger in Patient-Physician Interactions.

Department of General Practice and Primary Health Care, University of Auckland, Private Bag 92019, Auckland, New Zealand.
This paper questions the conventional wisdom that physicians must suppress anger in response to patient misbehaviour. It distinguishes the emotion of anger from its expression, which leans toward concerned frustration and disappointment for the sake of professionalism in patient care. Drawing on the framework of person-centred health care as a virtue ethic, the paper first suggests four reasons why and when physician anger toward patient behaviour may occasionally be appropriate: the inevitability of sometimes feeling angry, anger as a cognitive and behavioural resource, physician well-being, and potential patient benefit.

Cancer is a major health challenge globally and in Sri Lanka. Providing comprehensive information to patients is crucial for improving treatment outcomes and patient satisfaction, supported by evidence of its effectiveness in managing cancer pain. EORTC QLQ-INFO25, an information module developed by the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Quality of Life Group, is aimed at assessing cancer patients' perception of information received during different phases of care.
