Decision making is an integral part of surgical practice and is a skill that is as important as the ability to operate. Sound decision making is the result of acquiring ‘surgical wisdom’, which is achieved through learning, experience and reflection. This paper reviews the processes of surgical decision making with respect to choosing the correct procedure and deciding when to operate, and how operative decisions are made, together with the factors that influence our surgical decisions. 相似文献

Emotion, decision making and the orbitofrontal cortex 总被引:25,自引:7,他引:18
The somatic marker hypothesis provides a systems-level neuroanatomical and cognitive framework for decision making and the influence on it by emotion. The key idea of this hypothesis is that decision making is a process that is influenced by marker signals that arise in bioregulatory processes, including those that express themselves in emotions and feelings. This influence can occur at multiple levels of operation, some of which occur consciously and some of which occur non-consciously. Here we review studies that confirm various predictions from the hypothesis. The orbitofrontal cortex represents one critical structure in a neural system subserving decision making. Decision making is not mediated by the orbitofrontal cortex alone, but arises from large-scale systems that include other cortical and subcortical components. Such structures include the amygdala, the somatosensory/insular cortices and the peripheral nervous system. Here we focus only on the role of the orbitofrontal cortex in decision making and emotional processing, and the relationship between emotion, decision making and other cognitive functions of the frontal lobe, namely working memory. 相似文献

Atrial fibrillation is the most common arrhythmia encountered in clinical practice, and it is one of the most common cardiac conditions requiring hospitalization of a patient. Several national organizations have developed guidelines for the management of atrial fibrillation. These guidelines were updated in 2011 to incorporate new advances in antiarrhythmic drug therapy and anticoagulant therapy, as well as progress in the field of catheter ablation. Many decisions about patient care involve consideration of issues related to lifestyle and quality of life rather than survival. These decisions also involve addressing the key topics of heart rate control, heart rhythm control, and stroke prevention. During the past decade, important advances in the management of atrial fibrillation have created a number of treatment options that have roughly equivalent therapeutic efficacies when they are used for several common clinical situations encountered in clinical practice. The range of available treatments for patients with atrial fibrillation provides an important opportunity for the physician to deliver patient-centered care, which uses patient values to determine the best course of treatment. 相似文献

Principles of medical decision making 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The consequences of medical decisions are inherently uncertain at the decisive moment. Using clinical examples related to the diagnosis and management of low back pain, the authors review some principles that can help physicians deal with this uncertainty. This article addresses the following: the use of probability as a useful representation of uncertainty, the use of Bayes' theorem to update probability estimates when new information is obtained, the measurement of a diagnostic test's accuracy, the use of the threshold model for choosing a diagnostic test, the principles of expected-value decision making, the use of utility assessment as a way of attaching value to outcomes, and the use of quality-adjusted life years as a measure of value. These principles can aid physicians in approaching complex and uncertain decisions with their patients. As the use of computers becomes more integrated into the process of care, the opportunity exists to move formal decision models from the policy level to the patient care level. 相似文献

To assess the potential contribution of elementary decision analysis to evidence-based medicine in nephrology, the treatment of primary membranous nephropathy with nephrotic syndrome is taken as an example involving quantity and quality of life, and the treatment of uremic anemia in hemodialysis patients as an example involving economic constraints of interventions. Technical details on decision tree calculation procedures, outcome quantitative assessment, and probability assignment to branches are outlined. Indications strictly based on significance tests of individual outcomes of randomized controlled trials can either miss clinical advantages or disregard economic constraints that can be easily established by decision analysis and that may have a major impact in practice. 相似文献
