Physician Communication PEARLS from Cleveland Clinic

The video features my former colleagues and hospital medicine stars Drs. Moises Auron and Vj Velez:



Some key messages:

- Establish rapport and plan an encounter with the patient

- Elicit the patient perspective using FIFE (function, ideas, fears and
expectations)

- Apply PEARLS (partnership, empathy, acknowledgment, respect,
legitimation and support) to convey empathy

- Incorporate the patient into decision making and education using ART
(ask, respond, tell)
