From: Learning based on patient case reviews: an interview study

Phase one: Theme development.

We conducted a two-phased analysis:

1. Reactions to receiving questionnaires

2. Potential outcome

   Diagnostic process

   Evaluation of competences

   Referral system

   Awareness of delay

   Organisational overview

3. Talk of change

4. Patient continuity

5. Family physician-patient relationship

6. Decision-making processes

7. Learning processes

   Based on patient records

   Based on daily experience

8. Learning by feedback

   Experiences from other learning interventions

   Positive and negative feedback

   Learning from patient records

9. Clinical failures

All data were coded according to these themes in Nvivo ed. 7.

Phase two: Development of analytical categories.

The interviews as well as the code books of each identified theme were re-read.

The analytical categories were developed in a dialectic process between identified themes and the applied theoretical framework.

Analytical categories:

1. Learning processes described

   Reflections on work procedures

   Communication

   Case manager function

2. Evaluation of patient case reviews

   Patient-centeredness

   Real life experiences
