  3. Consultation Models • Descriptive • Normative • Conceptual • Practical

  4. The Biomedical Model • Take an accurate and relevant history (OBSERVATION). • Perform an accurate and relevant examination (OBSERVATION). • Make a provisional diagnosis (HYPOTHESIS). • Order and interpret the results of appropriate investigations (HYPOTHESIS TESTING). • Make a definitive diagnosis (DEDUCTION).

  5. M Balint (1957) The Doctor, His Patient and The Illness • The Apostolic Function • The Drug Doctor • The Sick Role • The Long Consultation

  6. Berne (1964) Games People Play / Transactional Analysis • Games • Parent / Adult / Child

The doctor and occasionally the patient detail further treatment or investigation 6. The consultation is terminated, usually by the doctor

  11. Byrne & Long (1976)Consultation Styles • doctor-centred • dominates the consultation • asks direct, closed questions • rejects the patient's ideas • evades the patient's questions • patient-centred • asks open questions • actively listens • challenges and reflects the patients' words and behaviour to allow them to express themselves in their own way
