When I started as a doctor, I’d go to work brimming with pride. But the system soured the love I felt for the NHS.
Every time students achieve what looks like a successful milestone it is, to some of them, the opening of another door to a haunted house, behind which lie demons, suffocating uncertainty and unimaginable challenges.

COMPASSION WITHOUT BURNOUT
for possible discussion:
1. Exploring compassion as a fundamental foundation for our work with benefit for all, both patients and staff.
2. Maintaining cohesive working, mutual respect and support between all who deliver health care, whatever their role.
3. Examining the causes of growing stress in health-care personnel, sharing practical solutions for protecting against its adverse effects.
4. Discerning the subtle signs of damaging stress in our work colleagues and how best to act in supportive response.

In becoming a health professional...
I want to help people, to heal people, to relieve suffering.

“….medical training seems to be focussed on how to deal with things – a liver, an MRI scan – rather than how to deal with people, such as patients and colleagues.
This lack of training on how to deal with people could mean doctors are ill equipped for this vital part of their jobs and explains much of their subsequent stress”

A part of your brain the right supramarginal gyrus recognizes a
lack of empathy and autocorrects.
When this brain region doesn't function properly—or when we
have to make particularly quick decisions—the researchers found
one’s ability for empathy is dramatically reduced. This area of the
brain helps us to distinguish our own emotional state from that of
other people and is responsible for empathy and compassion.

Findings related to oxytocin and vasopressin research, plus the role of monoamines and endogenous opioids, suggest a tight coupling with attachment processes and love phenomena: happiness, pleasure, compassion and desire.
Dopamine, as a critical part of the biologically important reward process, is a central instrument for
the neurobiology of love.

The impact of patient-centred care on outcomes from the Journal of Family Practice, 2000
• 39 family physicians at random, and 315 of their patients
• Consultations were audio-taped and scored for patient-centered communication.
• In addition, patients were asked for their perceptions of the patient-centredness of the visit.
![Page 23: COMPASSION WITHOUT BURNOUT · Effectiveness of empathy in General Practice A systematic review published in the British Journal of General Practice found seven papers (using strict](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042513/5f834a79cfbc390a9a0cd807/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
The Impact of Patient-Centred Care on Outcomes
Results
Patient-centered communication was correlated with the patients’ perceptions of finding common ground.
Positive perceptions were associated with better recovery from their discomfort and concern, better emotional health 2 months later, and fewer diagnostic tests and referrals.
Conclusion
Patient-centered practice improved health status and increased the efficiency of care by reducing diagnostic tests and referrals.

Observational study of effect of patient-centredness and
positive approach on outcomes of general practice
consultations
Setting: Three general practices, 865 consecutive patients
Outcomes: Patients' enablement, satisfaction, and burden of symptoms
Doctor factors studied:
Sympathy, interest in patients' worries & expectations, and readiness to discuss & agree about the problem and its treatment
Understanding of the patient and her / his emotional needs
Inclusion of health promotion in the consultation
Positive approach (definite about the problem and when it would settle)
Interest in effect on patient's life
![Page 25: COMPASSION WITHOUT BURNOUT · Effectiveness of empathy in General Practice A systematic review published in the British Journal of General Practice found seven papers (using strict](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042513/5f834a79cfbc390a9a0cd807/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Results
Satisfaction was related to communication and partnership
Enablement was greater with the doctors’ interest in the effect on life, and in health promotion
A positive approach was associated with satisfaction, enablement and a reduced symptom burden at one month
Referrals were fewer if patients felt they had a personal relationship with their doctor
Conclusions
Components of patients' perceptions can be measured reliably and predict different outcomes. If doctors don't provide a positive, patient-centred approach, patients will be less satisfied, less enabled, and may have both a greater symptom burden and higher rates of referral.

Observational study of 839 non-pregnant adult women
aged 18-70 presenting with suspected urinary tract
infection in primary care
‘The most interesting finding from this study is the reminder of what is often forgotten—that it is not just what is done that matters but how care is provided.
Symptoms were less severe and of shorter duration when the doctor took a positive approach to diagnosis and prognosis.
Most importantly, in an age of protocols and targets, (this study) shows that the way a doctor provides care can enhance the effectiveness of treatments.

Effectiveness of empathy in General Practice
A systematic review published in the British Journal of General Practice found seven papers (using strict inclusion criteria from an original tranch of 964) published in the last fifteen years, on the effectiveness of physician empathy in general practice.
The effects of empathy in patient–physician communication in the studies included are described as:
• Improvement of patient satisfaction and adherence to treatment,
• Decrease in anxiety and distress
• Better diagnostic and clinical outcomes, and
• More patient enablement (the ability of patients to improve their own health)

The benefits of compassion
• The least risk of burnout in the doctors studied
• More time spent relieving suffering of patients
• Better patient outcomes
• For doctors, better immune functioning

‘Research has found that developing kindness and compassion for ourselves and others builds our confidence, helps us create meaningful, caring relationships and promotes physical and mental health.
Far from fostering emotional weakness, practical exercises focusing on developing compassion have been found to subdue our anger and increase our courage and resilience to depression and anxiety.’

• The job of a doctor is becoming increasingly difficult.
• Specifically, pressure of patient through-put; patient expectations; lack of organisational and social support; increasing isolation - no time to develop teams and communities of practice; and increasingly complex cases and patient co-morbidities.

The value of values
Being clear about your personal code of values offers these benefits to life:
• The values-based life is meaningful
• Life purpose is clearer when based on values
• Life vision and goals are clear
• Decisions are easier
• Choices are clear
• Stress is reduced. Stress is all about values conflict.
• Life is easier

• Rudeness
• Complaints from patients/staff
• Uncompleted tasks
• Clinical errors
• Erratic behaviour (eg ‘ward rage’)
![Page 72: COMPASSION WITHOUT BURNOUT · Effectiveness of empathy in General Practice A systematic review published in the British Journal of General Practice found seven papers (using strict](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042513/5f834a79cfbc390a9a0cd807/html5/thumbnails/72.jpg)
Your Role in helping
• Compassionately point out that there is a problem
• Signpost to sources of help
• Make it clear that behaviour needs to change
That is, act like a GP in recognising the problem; but it is not your responsibility to ‘treat’ it, just to ensure that remedial action is taken.
