There is widespread support for training in Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapy (CBP) amongst psychiatrists and from the Royal College of Psychiatrists. One possible way to gain such training is to undertake a diploma or certificate course, a growing number of which exist in the United Kingdom. We report on a postal questionnaire survey of psychiatrists who have completed a CBP diploma course. Psychiatrists described the course as altering their clinical practice and found the skills learned, the format of multidisciplinary learning and of supervision all useful and helpful. However, individuals who undertook a CBP diploma were concerned about their ability to apply these skills and undergo further training, given the time constraints within busy consultant jobs.

Facial Nerve Monitoring

Newer surgical tools, which have been widely accepted as important adjuncts in otological surgery, include the laser, otoendoscopy and facial nerve monitoring. A confidential postal questionnaire survey was carried out to evaluate the usage of these newer techniques among the Consultant members of the British Association of Otorhinolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery. Our study revealed that the usage of otoendoscopy, laser and/or facial nerve monitoring is not as widespread as might be thought among otological surgeons in the United Kingdom.

Modified Delphi Technique

Introduction Across the United Kingdom, physiotherapy for critical care patients is provided 24 h a day, 7 days per week. There is a national drive to standardise the knowledge and skills of physiotherapists which will support training and reduce variability in clinical practice. Methods A modified Delphi technique using a questionnaire was used. The questionnaire, originally containing 214 items, was completed over three rounds. Items with no consensus were included in later rounds along with any additional items suggested. Results In all, 114 physiotherapists from across the United Kingdom participated in the first round, with 102 and 92 completing rounds 2 and 3, respectively. In total, 224 items were included: 107 were deemed essential as a minimum standard of clinical practice; 83 were not essential and consensus was not reached for 34 items. Analysis/Conclusion This study identified 107 items of knowledge and skills that are essential as a minimum standard for clinical practice by physiotherapists working in United Kingdom critical care units.

The Impact

The Royal College of Psychiatrists launched a five year campaign in 1992 to better inform health practitioners and the public about depression. A questionnaire survey of Sheffield general practitoners (GPs) to assess the impact of the Defeat Depression Campaign on their knowledge and clinical management of depression was carried out in May 1994, half way through the campaign. Overall, 75% of GPs who responded indicated that the Defeat Depression Campaign had had little or no impact on their clinical practice. It would appear that at its mid-point the Defeat Depression Campaign failed to achieve its main goals in relation to educating GPs about depression and its management.
