@IT_HealthPlus @mccarthymt7 Perhaps someone at @roinnslainte or @HSELive can explain how they plan to have hospitals expand from a routine 5 day week to a routine 6 and 7 day week without hiring people to do that work.

It is a step in the right direction to publish this data.

I presume the dataset is complete and accurate.

For some context, 15 years ago, in a public hospital clinic, for example, a consultant and 3 NCHDs would have an OPD of 60-80 people to see “scheduled” for a 3-4 hour clinic, that would routinely run for 6 hours. The consultant gave an opinion, and dictated a letter.

Today, many new consultants are in the clinic alone. They see all the patients, type their own letters, book the scans, request the molecular tests, arrange the follow up visits, and organise the interventions (e.g. chemotherapy appointments) by themselves.

Being a consultant has become a different job.

The Irish Medical Council (GMC equivalent in Ireland) are taking a stand!

They state:

“As the independent body which regulates doctors in Ireland, they are NOT the appropriate regulator for physician associates”

At #UromigosLive24 we discussed the role of IO after IO with @brian_rini, @DrChoueiri, @TiansterZhang and David McDermott. Two randomized phase 3 trials have not shown any benefit to sequential PD-1/PDL-1-based therapy in RCC.
