    Abstract Healthcare disparities and racism are finally being addressed in medical education. Medical schools are working to implement anti-racist programming; however, this can have a negative impact on the mental health of doctors and medical students of color. Continually hearing about people of one's racial group suffering from inequity can have a negative personal and performance impact. Specifically, providers of color want to be a part of the anti-racist movement, but it takes a toll on their mental and emotional wellbeing in the process. Through the support of their respective institutions, it is important for these providers to prioritize self-care such as engaging in physical activity, coaching and therapy. By caring for themselves in and outside of the work environment, providers of color will be better able to fight for anti-racism in healthcare. In this essay, we discuss the importance of health disparity education, challenges in implementing successful healthcare disparity curricula, and possible solutions to support providers and trainees of color.

    Abstract AbstractThe sudden onset of severe traumatic brain injury (sTBI) is an event suffered by millions of individuals each year. Regardless of this frequency in occurrence, accurate prognostication remains difficult to achieve among physicians. There are many variables that affect this prognosis. Physicians are expected to assess the clinical indications of the brain injury while considering other factors such as patient quality of life, patient preferences, and environmental context. However, this lack of certainty in prognosis can ultimately affect treatment recommendations and prompt clinical ethical issues at the bedside, as it leaves room for physician bias and interpretation. In this article, we introduce data on neurosurgeon values that may shed light on the process physicians and patients involved in sTBI undergo. In doing so, we highlight the many nuances in decision-making for patients suffering from sTBI and discuss potential solutions to better patient-physician or surrogate-physician interactions.

    Abstract This study explores and describes the state-wide needs of the first 1000 calls to the newly established Victorian Palliative Care Advice Service (PCAS). A retrospective analysis investigated calls from the Victorian general public (n  = 618 calls) and healthcare professionals (n  = 382 calls) to PCAS between 26 May 2020 and 24 October 2022. Caller demographics, disease type, reason for call, and perceived utility of service were described. Most calls were from members of the public (62%) and related to malignant conditions (41%). Regional/rural clients comprised 45% of all calls to the service, of which half (50%) were health professionals seeking advice on symptom management and medication. One-third (29.3%) of all calls from health professionals were escalated to a palliative care medical consultant. PCAS prevented calls to emergency services in 10% of cases, and 82% of callers reported their issue was 'very much' or 'completely' addressed by PCAS. PCAS was shown to be frequently used by the public and healthcare professionals supporting patients with advanced, life-limiting illnesses. The service provided a solution without requiring complex technology, delivering a rapid connection for consumers with specialist palliative care expertise that might otherwise be unavailable, particularly in regional areas.

    Abstract In the past, women in neurosurgery were deemed "less than a minority." Pioneering women entered neurosurgical residency programs alone, facing large obstacles to become surgical experts. Recent data suggest a stark increase in the number of women neurosurgical residents. As the field of neurosurgery attempts to increase numbers of women surgeons, it must also adjust workplace culture to embrace a new group of trainees. Here, we share an account of historical numbers, as well as evidence of a changing landscape within neurosurgery and suggestions of ways to modify workplace culture based on examples set in other career paths.
