Patient Centred Care

In seeking out evidence on patient centred care, mazarelli and tresia wound up reviewing two hundred eighty one research articles. They saw what they saw as a collage of evidence about the power of compassion. So how persuaded are you that the outcomes are not driven by something else, whether observable or unobservable? i could imagine that we could identify benefits of compassionate care, but it may be that doctors show more compassion to patients who are more compliant.
