Yeah - unser SFB Podcast „Wirkstoff Wort - der Podcast für Gute Kommunikation in der Medizin ist draußen!
Hört mal rein.
Danke an das großartige Public Outreach Team des SFBs!

Thank you for sharing the work of one of our projects #treatmentexpectation @sfb-trr-289.bsky.social

@aulenkamp.bsky.social et al. find that visceral pain is highly susceptible to nocebo effects, which can arise or intensify through cross-modal transfer from adverse somatic experiences, underscoring relevance of provider communication. Learn more in #PAIN bit.ly/4b603nw

Positive Worte wirken – Placebo-Effekte im OP-Gespräch nutzen Anästhesisten nutzen Gespräche, um positive Erwartungen vor der OP zu stärken

Worte vor einer #Operation können Schmerzen, #Angst, Opioidverbrauch und Komplikationsrisiken positiv beeinflussen. Eine Umfrage, initiiert von @aulenkamp.bsky.social ( @unidue.bsky.social ), belegt, dass Anästhesisten diese Erwartungseffekte kennen und zu nutzen wissen. #Anästhesiologie #Placebo

Understanding and leveraging placebo and nocebo effects in perioperative care: a cross-sectional survey of German-speaking anesthesiologists - BMC Anesthesiology Background Placebo and nocebo effects, beneficial or adverse responses shaped by patient expectations, modulate perioperative outcomes including pain, opioid requirement, recovery, and complication ri...

What did they find? 🤔

In 650 Anesthesiologists, self-reported knowledge of placebo effects was moderate, & lower for nocebo effects!

They integrate expectation-based interventions, but gaps in theoretical knowledge & deliberate systematic application remain, particularly regarding nocebo effects.

New collaborative work from projects A04 & A13!

Johannes Wessels & @aulenkamp.bsky.social systematically assessed anesthesiologists’ knowledge, perceived relevance, & clinical use of placebo/nocebo effects 🏥👩‍⚕️

Why? ▶️ To identify educational needs & opportunities for enhanced patient care.

📃 New work from A04! 📃

This study found that visceral pain is more sensitive to negative expectations and nocebo effects than somatic pain. Bad experiences with somatic pain treatments can worsen visceral pain through a "cross-over" effect. 🤯

The study highlights the importance of how healthcare providers communicate & manage patient expectations, especially for those with mixed pain conditions!

With @aulenkamp.bsky.social, Robert J. Pawlik, Catrin Guddat, Harald Engler, @julkleibo.bsky.social, Adriane Icenhour, & Sigrid Elsenbruch!

After the coffee break, our emerging PIs help debunk some academic myths! 🧐

Examples: "A researcher is a person with above average dedication to their job." or "Teaching is worth less than research."

What do you think? Truth or myth? 🤔

Great game 🤩👍🏼

Of course some of our MD students were also present for congratulations from our speaker @ulrikebingel.bsky.social 🥳

For the clinical research category, @aulenkamp.bsky.social and her two colleagues won with their work on the relationship between postoperative pain and biomarkers in pain chronification! 🤕
