Background: This study investigated the application of Duty of Candour (DoC) legislation in the context of post-colonoscopy colorectal cancers (PCCRCs). DoC mandates transparent disclosure of notifiable safety incidents to patients in the English National Health Service, including incidences leading to severe or moderate harm. This study aimed to analyze the application of DoC in PCCRCs, improve understanding of the legislation, and identify challenges in DoC implementation.

Objective: To explore a quantitative interpretation of the term 'moderate harm' as applied to the triggering of the duty of candour associated with clinically significant accidental and unintended exposures to ionizing radiation.
Methods: Current definitions of 'moderate harm' were matched to the lay descriptions of disease and injury states used in the calculation of detriment as disability-adjusted life years (DALY) by the World Health Organization, to obtain a value of detriment associated with 'moderate harm'. Published conversion factors between effective dose and DALY were used to calculate the effective dose associated with the same detriment.

Purpose: This paper compares how the two interacting themes of "Whistleblowing" or "Speaking Up" and the duty of candour (DoC), which are both concerned with safety and quality improvement in health care, got onto the agenda of the British National Health Service (NHS).
Design/methodology/approach: It uses the approach of multiple streams and the methodology of interpretive content analysis in a deductive approach that focusses on both manifest and latent content. It examines official documents that discuss the DoC or whistleblowing or cognate terms in connection with the British NHS from 1999 to 2019.
