• W2994080989 abstract "Introduction - Non-technical skills (NTS) such as leadership, communication and stress-management are invaluable skills that affect both technical performance and clinical outcome. Currently various rating scales are available to assess NTS in surgical specialties, however these can only be used during (simulated) surgical procedures and require trained supervisors. Additionally they cannot be used to investigate to what extent medical students already master these skills. The evaluation of communication styles and attitudes towards risk and uncertainty could be an alternative to assess NTS in a broad population outside of a surgical setting1,2. Unfortunately, research on these evaluations is scarce in surgical specialties. Therefore, this monocentric study aimed to explore whether surgical staff, trainees and candidates applying for surgical training, differ regarding some key NTS. Methods - Between September and December 2016, candidates applying for a surgical specialty (general surgery, orthopedics, plastic surgery or urology), surgical trainees and staff were invited to complete an online questionnaire, assessing a subset of participants’ NTS. Communication styles were assessed with the Communication Styles Inventory (CSI), a 96-item self-report questionnaire that assesses 6 domains of communication (Expressiveness, preciseness, verbal aggressiveness, questioningness, emotionality and impression manipulativeness), with 5-point Likert-scales. Attitudes towards uncertainty and risks were assessed with the Physicians’ reaction toward Uncertainty scale (PRU, 15 items) and the Physician Risk Attitudes scale (PRA, 6 items) respectively, which were both scored on a 6-point Likert scale. Study participation was voluntary and all questionnaires were anonymized. Data analysis was conducted by parametric testing. Results - Overall 51,9% of the contacted individuals (41/53 candidates; 42/109 trainees; 25/46 staff) completed the questionnaires. On the CSI scales, candidates scored significantly higher than trainees and staff on expressiveness (mean 13,73 vs. 12,76 vs. 12,53; P=0,026). Trainees had significantly lower questioningness scores than candidates and staff (mean 12,09 Vs 13,4 vs. 13,66; P=0,007). On the PRU-scale, trainees scored significantly higher than candidates and staff for concern about bad outcomes (mean 9,26 vs. 7,68 vs. 6,8; P= 0,023) and reluctance to disclose uncertainty to patients (mean 14,12 vs. 11,66 vs. 11,12; P= 0,021). Staff members were significantly less reluctant than trainees and candidates to disclose mistakes to physicians (mean 3,56 vs. 4,57 vs. 4,88; P=0,047). Candidates were less risk-averse, which was reflected by significantly lower scores on the PRA-scale, compared to trainees and staff (mean 19,88 vs. 23,88 vs. 23,84; P= 0,012). Internal validity of all scales was very good (Cronbach alpha > 0.80). Finally, all participant groups reported having a good general health status and life satisfaction and did not differ significantly from each other on these variables. Conclusion - The current data showed that surgical staff, trainees and candidates differ regarding communication styles and attitudes towards uncertainty and risks. Some of these differences could be attributable to differences in clinical experience, suggesting these can be trained over time. These initial results may form the base for further research on assessment of surgical candidates during selections and the interplay of technical and NTS in medicine.
