Abstract:

The focus of this book is to investigate a routine yet disruptive activity at
the hospital – telephone interaction – and to expose how nurses and physicians
coordinate at distance in view of delivering efficient patient care. Data
consists of 130 audio-recorded calls between nurses and physicians at an acute
care hospital in Switzerland. The main activity of these calls consists of the
nurse requesting the physician’s intervention, namely, the physician
designating a course of action to be undertaken in the future.

By adopting a conversation analytic approach, the author identifies the
formats through which nurses implement requests to physicians. She
distinguishes between requests that contain an explicit formulation of a
candidate course of action (e.g. Can you do X), and less transparent formats,
such as reports of problems. The latter consist of presenting a series of
facts that convey the existence of a situation portrayed as problematic and
making relevant the physician’s intervention. To secure the interventionable
character of the report, nurses refer to facts remediable only by a medical
authority, such as deficiencies contingent to the provision of care or a
patient’s medical status.
