Older woman, joint pain
Thought about gout & pseudogout… but couldn’t discriminatefurther.
She’s older, with moderate pain; hadsurgery recently… This favors pseudo-gout. Which crystals are involved ineach pathologies? How find out?

How often do youknow what yourstudent or residentis thinking (Dx, reasons)when presenting a patient ?
<25% 50% 75% >90%
Not often Some Most
![Page 9: The “Teaching Moment” Expressing uncertainties & difficulties Georges BORDAGE, MD, PhD Professor Department of Medical Education University of Illinois](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022110205/56649c725503460f949231d0/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

Not so often...
During outpatient 1/5 (19%) case presentations (4/5
Reporting)
![Page 10: The “Teaching Moment” Expressing uncertainties & difficulties Georges BORDAGE, MD, PhD Professor Department of Medical Education University of Illinois](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022110205/56649c725503460f949231d0/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)

Not so often...
During outpatient 1/5 (19%) case presentations (4/5
Reporting) Medical records: SOAP notes 1/17 (6%) (Baker et al, 1999)
![Page 11: The “Teaching Moment” Expressing uncertainties & difficulties Georges BORDAGE, MD, PhD Professor Department of Medical Education University of Illinois](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022110205/56649c725503460f949231d0/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
During bedside discussionswith clerks,attendings:
- did most of talking- provided mostly factual info.- rarely challenged clerks to think
(Foley, 1979)
![Page 12: The “Teaching Moment” Expressing uncertainties & difficulties Georges BORDAGE, MD, PhD Professor Department of Medical Education University of Illinois](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022110205/56649c725503460f949231d0/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Students reluctant to show their thinking,
more so their uncertainties
Culture: hide errors, uncertainties
54% HS discussed errors(Wu et al, 1991)
![Page 13: The “Teaching Moment” Expressing uncertainties & difficulties Georges BORDAGE, MD, PhD Professor Department of Medical Education University of Illinois](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022110205/56649c725503460f949231d0/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Encourage theirstudents & residentsto express theirthinking & uncertaintiesduring case presentationsalong with the clinical facts
Connell et al, 1999

Patient care
Student education

Educational strategy:
Learning is maximized when students try to resolve personal difficulties, uncertainties… (John Dewey, 1933)
Teaching moment: express difficulties

Long-term approach
Faculty development
Change the clinical culture from hiding uncertainties, errors to expressing them
![Page 20: The “Teaching Moment” Expressing uncertainties & difficulties Georges BORDAGE, MD, PhD Professor Department of Medical Education University of Illinois](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022110205/56649c725503460f949231d0/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

Training: 3 x 3-hr wkps/ 6 mts
Goal: Elicit student’s uncertainties or difficulties about the case.
Record (tapes) & reflect +/- Wksp: Discuss what worked & not Practice their own strategy
![Page 22: The “Teaching Moment” Expressing uncertainties & difficulties Georges BORDAGE, MD, PhD Professor Department of Medical Education University of Illinois](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022110205/56649c725503460f949231d0/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)

Clear intentions…
“I’d like us to talk about how you’re thinking about problems.
I’m especially interested in anything that you’re still uncertain about… anything about this case that you’re unclear or puzzled about.”
![Page 23: The “Teaching Moment” Expressing uncertainties & difficulties Georges BORDAGE, MD, PhD Professor Department of Medical Education University of Illinois](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022110205/56649c725503460f949231d0/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Expressing uncertainties,
difficulties, errors
“Student’s CC”

Difficulties… No sense of the problem overall
Acute recurring large joint problem vs. Chronic small joint poly arthritis
Single Dx in mind vs. D.Dx Septic arthritis vs. gout
Mindless presentation vs. pertinent details, discrim. findings
Bordage, 1999
