Background: Postgraduate training was reformed in Denmark in 2004 requiring assessment
of specific clinical skills. This increased the attention on how to manage poorly performing
doctors under postgraduate training (PPDUPT). In January 2008 "Managing trainees in
difficulty" was published from "National Association of Clinical Tutors UK" providing practical
advice for educational and clinical supervisors (http://www.nact.org.uk/pdf_documents/
trainees_in_difficulty_jan08.pdf). In order to test the acceptance and usefulness of this guide
in a Danish setting a one day adjusted course, was offered to senior doctors being clinical
supervisor in Region of Southern Denmark. The main focus of the course was prevention,
early detection and action plan.
Summary of work: Since February 2008 32 senior doctors have attended the course.
Questionnaires assessing the acceptance and usefulness of the course were answered by
29 participants.
Summary of results: A positive evaluation was reported by 27. The most important
learning points being the general management advices reported by 19, fast detection and
intervention by 10, and focus on the importance of documentation by 6 participants.
Conclusions: Overall participants reported good acceptance and benefits of the course.
Take-home messages: We recommend the current one day course for educational and
clinical supervisors as a tool in preventing and managing PPDUPT.
