In 650 Anesthesiologists, self-reported knowledge of placebo effects was moderate, & lower for nocebo effects!
They integrate expectation-based interventions, but gaps in theoretical knowledge & deliberate systematic application remain, particularly regarding nocebo effects.
New collaborative work from projects A04 & A13!
Johannes Wessels & @aulenkamp.bsky.social systematically assessed anesthesiologistsβ knowledge, perceived relevance, & clinical use of placebo/nocebo effects π₯π©ββοΈ
Why? βΆοΈ To identify educational needs & opportunities for enhanced patient care.
π New work from A04! π
This study found that visceral pain is more sensitive to negative expectations and nocebo effects than somatic pain. Bad experiences with somatic pain treatments can worsen visceral pain through a "cross-over" effect. π€―
Read it βΆοΈ doi.org/10.1097/j.pa...
The study highlights the importance of how healthcare providers communicate & manage patient expectations, especially for those with mixed pain conditions!
With @aulenkamp.bsky.social, Robert J. Pawlik, Catrin Guddat, Harald Engler, @julkleibo.bsky.social, Adriane Icenhour, & Sigrid Elsenbruch!
After the coffee break, our emerging PIs help debunk some academic myths! π§
Examples: "A researcher is a person with above average dedication to their job." or "Teaching is worth less than research."
What do you think? Truth or myth? π€
Great game π€©ππΌ
