This paper explores the challenges of integrating genomic medicine within the UK's National Health Service (NHS) and potential solutions for alignment with the NHS's proposed long-term plan and Genome UK strategy. Critical challenges and knowledge gaps have been identified, including a referral-dependent system, unclear eligibility criteria, lack of policies and guidelines, gaps in clinical genomic competence, genomic sequencing costs, equity issues for genomic testing access across the UK, and data management and patient privacy concerns. Proposed solutions and future directions include extending genetic test ordering authority to include mainstream clinicians and establishing unambiguous eligibility criteria, policies and guidelines through a developing trained workforce and appropriate patient engagement. Moreover, expanded Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) and pharmacogenomic testing approaches through up-scaling genomic sequencing capacity and standardising genetic testing across the UK will lower consumable costs. Leveraging artificial intelligence (AI) and data warehousing approaches will improve data management, particularly in the context of integration within electronic health records. In summary, the successful integration of genomic medicine within mainstream patient care holds transformative potential for healthcare provision. By recognising the challenges identified and embracing the proposed solutions, healthcare systems can revolutionise patient outcomes, advancing precision medicine and shaping the future of genomic-driven healthcare.</p>","PeriodicalId":94250,"journal":{"name":"The Ulster medical journal","volume":"93 3","pages":"111-118"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11591220/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142741796","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the associated risks of this educational method have largely remained unaddressed. One of the most potent risks of simulation is felt to be the experience of psychological stress. Over the last two decades, researchers have suggested that an increase in simulation-related stress goes hand-in-hand with diminishing performance, but the evidence base for this claim is lacking. A medical educator thus has no robust scientific steering on which to gauge how 'hard to push' a trainee in a simulation environment to best assist their learning. In this review we systematically analyse the literature to further understand the impact of simulation-related stress on learner performance and report that inducing a high-stress environment during simulation is generally associated with impaired performance.</p>","PeriodicalId":94250,"journal":{"name":"The Ulster medical journal","volume":"93 3","pages":"119-126"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11591218/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142741805","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The expectation is often those doctors closest to dying would be both the proponents and facilitators of this action. A survey of Palliative Medicine in Northern Ireland (NI) on this topic has never been previously undertaken. The Regional Palliative Medicine Group (RPMG) a representative body of all the Palliative Medicine Consultants in NI organised an anonymous 'Google Forms' survey on AD from 3/6/24 to 17/6/24 of all doctors of all grades working within Specialist Palliative Medicine at the time. The survey had a 69% response rate (56/81) demonstrating 80% of all responding doctors working within Palliative Medicine and 100% of responding Palliative Medicine Consultants and Registrars in Northern Ireland do not favour a change in legislation allowing for AD. 91% (n=51) have concerns that AD will be influenced by a lack of availability of personal care at home. 93% (n=52) are concerned that AD will be influenced by cost-saving for the patient and their family and 82% (n=46) are concerned that AD will be influenced by cost savings for health and social care. 98% (n=55) stated if AD is legalised it should not be 'part of mainstream healthcare' with 45% (n=25) saying it should be 'via the legal system' and 46% (n=26) saying 'via a separate independent facility'. 53% (n=28) 'would not' and 40% (n=21) 'don't know', if they could remain working for an organisation that undertakes AD. These results clearly show that Palliative Medicine in Northern Ireland will not be part of an AD service model. The question is who will be? Healthcare leaders now need to support their Palliative Medicine workforce by stating there will be AD-free healthcare facilities if AD is legalised.</p>","PeriodicalId":94250,"journal":{"name":"The Ulster medical journal","volume":"93 3","pages":"105-110"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11591219/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142741808","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
