Interesting to reflect on supportive care progress over past 10 years, as team at LGH ahead of the curve back then: doi.org/10.1159/000371888 @drjamesburton

"Clinicians too have a critical role in reshaping attitudes and so must build their own death and grief literacy."
Changing attitudes to death and grief demands bold action, writes @Lucy_Selman

This paper from @OSCAR_study builds on the CKMAPPS study, particularly qualitative data analysis by @SKGTonkinCrine @paulrsoton and colleagues, by showing how treatment decision-making is biased by the framing of dialysis and conservative management.

Replying to @Lucy_Selman
In the second, more common approach, CKM is framed as subordinate. It is not presented as having potential benefit for the patient: the disadvantages of dialysis are not explicated, and neither are CKM’s potential advantages. See example Fig 4.

We, the medical profession, have to get right behind you on this @doctor_oxford. These terms are being used to mislead the public. These are not physicians nor cancer specialists @VictoriaAtkins @NHSEngland @AmandaPritchard.
Flagging this @wesstreeting in sincere hope you will address as likely next health secretary.
The NHS has a duty of candour.
That has to come from the top down.
Spinning. Misleading. Misrepresenting truth to patients. All are completely unacceptable.

Very original work by @Lucy_Selman on @OSCAR_study using conversational analysis. Revealed 2 ways of presenting renal treatment options - dialysis as normative (audio example in slide) vs. conservative management as valid option. #EAPC2023 👏🏻👏🏻

Another fabulous conversation. Fascinating how #language can be used to say one thing and convey a different meaning altogether. Looking forward to hearing outcomes of @OSCAR_study. Hear about early findings from @Lucy_Selman here. 👇
