In this episode of Deep Breath In, we'll be considering how a physicians personal experience of illness - either themselves, or as a parent or carer, might affect their approach to management of it in a patient.
We'll also have an update on the NICE guideline for treatment of Gout - particularly highlighting changes around uses of urate lowering therapy, and how often we should be testing patient's serum urate levels when they're experiencing flare-ups.
Our Guests.
Katherine Hall is the associate dean of medical admissions at the university of Otago, and has researched how physician experience affects their practice.
Alastair Dickson is a GP, and lecturer at Hull York Medical School. He co-authored The BMJ article on management of gout.
