Clinician-patient communication: a systematic review

Abstract: There is little definitive evidence supporting the superiority of one specific method for communicating information compared to another. Evidence regarding the benefit of decision aids or other strategies to facilitate better communication is inconsistent. Since patients vary in their communication preferences and desire for active participation in decision making, there is a need to individualize communication style.

“…Unfortunately, as shown in our previously performed time and motion studies, little time has been used for doctor-patient interaction [28,29,[31][32][33][34]. Work overload, pressures associated with numerous working demands can lead to less time spent on doctors' patient talk [70]. A study performed by Argentero et al [71] gave evidence of significant associations between kindness in medical practice (e.g., towards patients and their relatives) and physicians' workload and emotional exhaustion.…”

Research in communication is extensive in other fields such as oncology and pediatrics [51,52].
