    Abstract Implication statement: This article explores a direct-observation simulation swapping resident and consultant roles as a measure to assess competence during the final "transition to practice" phase of residency. As indicated by the Royal College, assessment of competency in this stage should include direct observation; however, this is challenging to implement, both from the perspective of a busy clinical environment, but also logistically, as a final-stage resident is still a learner in a consultant clinic. Our suggested approach allows for both real-world experience for the resident as well as direct observation and assessment by the consultant, thus providing the resident with targeted, actionable feedback, as well as ensuring the final-stage resident is competent for practice.
    Énoncé des implications de la recherche: Cet article explore une simulation utilisant l'observation directe et où les rôles de résident et de consultant sont inversés comme moyen d'évaluation des compétences durant l'étape finale de la résidence, la « transition vers la pratique ». Le Collège royal indique qu'à ce stade, l'observation directe doit faire partie de l'évaluation des compétences; or, cette modalité d'évaluation est difficile à mettre en œuvre dans un environnement clinique animé et un contexte logistique où le résident est encore un apprenant dans une clinique de consultants. L'approche que nous proposons permet à la fois au résident d'acquérir une situation réelle et au consultant de faire une observation directe pour l'évaluation, et d'offrir une rétroaction ciblée et utile, tout en s'assurant que le résident en fin de parcours a les compétences requises pour pratiquer.

    Abstract Oncology residents routinely engage in ethically complex decision-making discussions with patients, while observing and interacting with their teaching consultant. If clinical competency in oncology decision-making guidance is to be taught deliberately and effectively, it is necessary to understand resident experiences in this context to develop appropriate educational and faculty development initiatives. Four junior and two senior postgraduate oncology residents participated in semi-structured interviews during October and November 2021 which explored their experiences of real-world decision-making scenarios. Van Manen's phenomenology of practice was used in an interpretivist research paradigm. Transcripts were analysed to articulate essential experiential themes, and composite vocative narratives were created. Three essential themes were identified: (1) residents often endorsed different decision-making approaches than supervising consultants, (2) residents experienced inner conflict, and (3) residents struggled to find their own approach to decision-making. Residents experienced being torn between a perceived obligation to defer to consultant directives, and a desire for increasing ownership of decision-making while not feeling empowered to discuss their opinions with the consultants. Residents described their experiences around ethical position awareness during decision-making in a clinical teaching context as challenging, with experiences suggesting moral distress combined with inadequate psychological safety to address ethical conflicts and unresolved questions of decision ownership with supervisors. These results suggest the need for enhanced dialogue and more research to reduce resident distress during oncology decision-making. Future research should be aimed at discovering novel ways in which residents and consultants could interact in a unique clinical learning context including graduated autonomy, a hierarchical gradient, ethical positions, physician values, and sharing of responsibility.

    Abstract We present the case of a 75-year-old female with simultaneous EGFR-mutated stage IV lung cancer and advanced BRCA2-mutated ovarian cancer, treated with a unique regimen. In this case report, the patient was treated with alternating months of osimertinib and olaparib to control her lung and ovarian cancers, respectively. When both diseases showed progression, the patient underwent a trial of concurrent therapy with both drugs, yet this was discontinued due to patient-reported adverse side effects. Combination targeted drug therapy may be required to treat complex diagnoses such as dual malignancies. However, combination drug therapy consisting of osimertinib and olaparib has not previously been explored. This case report represents the first to demonstrate osimertinib and olaparib combination therapy as a unique treatment regimen for concurrent lung and ovarian cancers. These two drugs can either be given in an alternating way or given together, short-term, with a higher but tolerable toxicity profile.

    Abstract Medical education in oncology has adopted a competency-based medical education (CBME) approach in Canada. Oncologist competencies are arranged within assessment frameworks, but it is unknown whether oncologists routinely use assessment frameworks when determining what to teach oncology trainees. Understanding oncologists' actual approaches to assessment and teaching as a form of enacted CBME could inform and focus faculty development efforts. Using a participatory action research approach, oncology faculty were interviewed regarding their teaching practices and use of assessment frameworks. Faculty suggestions regarding challenges in setting teaching goals and completing assessment within the CBME paradigm were solicited. Furthermore, teaching objectives developed by faculty in-house were assessed regarding the domains of competence targeted. Thirty-one of the 40 faculty members in the Department of Oncology, Western University, agreed to participate. Trainee factors (training level, areas of interest), faculty personal values and experience, the teaching setting, and some components of frameworks (medical expert, communicator, advocate, and professional) were articulated as determinants of teaching goals. Of the 1117 in-house objectives reviewed, 76% focused on the medical role. Faculty held widely disparate views on assessment framework features which would enable teaching and assessment. Oncology faculty members used a multifaceted approach to determine what to teach trainees. This approach contains elements both of the conventional apprenticeship models under which many faculty members themselves were trained and of the CBME paradigm. Future research should focus on exploring ways to resolve the tension between established individual teaching approaches and nationally standardized competency frameworks which are being implemented.

    Abstract Background: Patients undergoing neoadjuvant chemoradiation for oesophageal cancer often experience dehydration from decreased fluid intake and increased losses. Despite frequent clinical visits during treatment, patients can still present with dehydration, suggesting the need for increased patient awareness and engagement around adverse event management at home. Evidence for benefits of self-monitoring may help motivate patients to engage proactively in their own care to improve their treatment experience.
    Methods: We performed a randomised single-centre study of a urine colour self-monitoring card (UCC) during chemoradiation therapy for oesophageal cancer, compared with standard dietitian counselling. Primary outcome was self-efficacy as determined by the Self-Management Resource Centre Self-Efficacy for Managing Chronic Disease Scale (SMCD). Secondary outcomes included Burge thirst scores, Edmonton Symptom Assessment System scores (ESAS), patient-initiated hydrations, creatinine rise and satisfaction with the UCC.
    Results: Thirty-five patients were randomised. UCC use was not associated with improved SMCD or ESAS scores compared with standard counselling. The card was highly rated by patients as a welcome tool for self-monitoring.
    Conclusions: No beneficial effect on self-efficacy or dehydration markers with UCC use was demonstrated. The study nonetheless drew attention to several factors potentially hindering its use for effective self-care: the unexpected severity of other symptoms consuming patients' attention, reduced sensitivity of urine colour due to chemotherapy, absence of active inquiry by the healthcare team and the inconvenient location of the UCC in wallet/purse. Urine colour monitoring in patients with oesophageal cancer to improve the patient experience during treatment warrants further study but supported by active healthcare provider inquiry, more accessible format of the card, and possibly home vital checks to increase its sensitivity in the clinical context.
