Summary

Decontextualised risk information is any information pertaining to diagnosis, which is introduced into a clinical consultation, or a diagnostic thought process, without being requested by the clinician. It can be risk scores, computerised warnings, or lab tests or diagnostic imaging requests ordered by other clinicians. It is a concept which (to our knowledge) has not been studied.

Clinical vignettes have been developed to simulate scenarios where decontextualised risk is introduced into a consultation. These will be presented to primary care clinicians via video, who will then undergo a structured interview to explore how their perception, processing and communication of risk is challenged and changed by decontextualised risk. The findings will be analysed used qualitative methods (Thematic Analysis).
