    Abstract Introduction Procedure specific consent forms (PSCFs) have been shown to improve consenting practice for a standardised list of complications. The aim of this study was to assess the current usage and quality of PSCFs in the National Health Service (NHS) for cholecystectomy, specifically comparing the listed complications with those mentioned on the NHS website. Methods A freedom of information request was sent to all NHS trusts asking whether they perform laparoscopic cholecystectomy and whether they have a PSCF for this. A copy of the PSCF was also requested. Complications stated on these forms were compared with those on the NHS Choices website. Results Overall, 162 (88%) of the 185 trusts responded, with 121 of these performing cholecystectomies. Among these, 20 (17%) currently use PSCFs; all provided a copy. Five (25%) of the PSCFs contained all eight risks mentioned on the NHS website. The number of risks listed varied from 4 to 18 per form. Only bile duct injury was listed on every PSCF. The least frequently mentioned complication (45% of forms) was the risk from general anaesthetic. Conclusions This study suggests that too few trusts are using PSCFs and that those PSCFs that are in use contain too little detail on the risks of cholecystectomy. The listed risks and incidences on each PSCF were highly variable. More trusts should begin to use PSCFs during the informed consent process and each PSCF should include a nationally standardised list of potential complications to act as a prompt for discussion (and documentation) of risk.

    Abstract As in the rest of Britain, the outbreak of hostilities in 1914 was met in Scotland with excitement and relief. In the field of literature too, the initial response was positive. Kailyard fiction and the Celtic Twilight were left behind as artless verses, patriotic articles and short stories flooded into print. But as the war progressed things changed and a more complex picture emerged - the patriotism and braggadocio was counterpointed by writers who saw the futility and horror of war. In this book, acclaimed military historian Trevor Royle introduces a huge range of literary material - includ

    Abstract Purpose: Elective inguinal hernia repair (IHR) is one of the most commonly performed operations in the UK. As with all procedures, informed consent is essential. Pre-made consent forms have been suggested to improve consenting practice. This study aimed to assess the usage and quality of pre-made hernia-specific consent forms (PCF) in the UK.
    Methods: A freedom of information request was sent to all UK NHS Trusts asking: (1) does the trust perform IHRs; (2) do they have a PCF; and (3) to send a copy. Complications lists on received forms were reviewed and compared to those listed on the British Hernia Society (BHS) "patient information" webpage.
    Results: 157/185 Trusts (85%) responded. 117/157 (75%) perform IHRs; 16/117 (14%) use PCFs. The number of reported risks was variable (range 4-18), as was the content of each form (28 different risks were listed). Quoted percentage risks were inconsistent (e.g. recurrence range < 1-5%). The frequency of each BHS-quoted risk was (open/laparoscopic): Bleeding 62/75%; infection 85/92%; seroma 31/42%; damage to testicular blood supply 69/75%; damage to abdominal contents NA/25%; haematoma 62/67%; venous thromboembolism 54/50%; recurrence 85/83%; chronic pain 77/58%; mesh infection 23/8%. Zero forms contained all BHS-quoted risks.
    Conclusions: Whilst the consent form only provides documentation of the consent process, this study suggests that PCFs do not improve the quality of consent as both the type and likelihood of quoted complications were highly variable between Trusts. As follow-up for elective procedures is rare, it is unlikely that this variability reflects actual measured outcomes.

    Abstract Objective: The aims of the present study were to describe the age-specific incidence and 30-day mortality of aortic dissection patients presenting to the EDs in New South Wales (NSW).
    Methods: This was a data linkage study involving emergency, inpatient and death registry administrative data from NSW.
    Results: The present study found 273 instances of aortic dissection in NSW from July 2017 to July 2018. Calculated incidence was 3.47 per 100 000. Incidence increased exponentially with age. The 30-day mortality rate among this cohort was 35.53% (n = 97). Mortality was significantly associated with age and pre-existing comorbidity burden, but was not associated with gender, level of hospital or time of presentation.
    Conclusions: The present study found the incidence of aortic dissection within the NSW population to be 3.4 per 100 000. The incidence of aortic dissection in our population increased from 8.6 per 100 000 for people aged between 60 and 80 years to 32 per 100 000 for those aged over 80 years.

    Abstract Objectives: Although trainees and trainers find feedback interactions beneficial, difficulties in giving and receiving feedback are reported. Few studies have explored what drives trainees to seek feedback. This study explores how workplace-based assessments (WBAs) influence the ways surgical trainees seek feedback and feedback interactions.
    Methods: Utilising a template analysis approach, we conducted 10 focus groups with 42 surgical trainees from four regions across the UK. Data were independently coded by three researchers, incorporating three a priori themes identified from a previous quantitative study. Further themes emerged from exploration of these data. The final template, agreed by the three researchers, was applied to all focus group transcripts. The themes were linked in a diagrammatical form to allow critical exploration of the data.
    Results: Trainees' perceptions of the purpose of WBA for learning or an assessment of learning, and their relationship with their trainer impacted upon how trainees chose to use WBA. Perceiving WBA as a test led trainees to 'play the game': seek positive and avoid negative feedback through WBA. Perceiving WBA as a chance to learn led trainees to seek negative feedback. Some trainees sought negative feedback outside WBA. Negative feedback was more important for changing practice compared with positive feedback, which enabled trainees to 'look good' but had less of an effect on changing clinical practice. The timing of feedback relative to WBA was also important, with immediate feedback being more beneficial for learning; however, delayed feedback was still sought using WBA.
    Discussion: Trainees' perceptions of the purpose of WBA and their relationship with their trainer informed when they chose to seek feedback. Trainees who perceived WBA as a test were led to 'play the game' by seeking positive and avoiding negative feedback. Outside of WBA, trainees sought negative feedback, which was most important for change in practice.
