Abstract
Objective To address the organization of conversations in oncology visits by taking an “interaction order” perspective and asking how these visits are intrinsically organized.
Methods Conversation analysis.
Results Using audio recordings of talk in oncology visits involving patients with non-small cell lung cancer, we identify and analyze an “appreciation sequence” that is designed to elicit patients’ understanding and positive assessment of treatments in terms of their prolongation of life.
Conclusion An “appreciation sequence,” regularly initiated after the delivery of scan results and/or treatment recommendations, simultaneously reminds patients of their mortality while suggesting that the treatment received has prolonged their lives, and in some cases significantly beyond the median time of survival.
Practice implications We explore the functions of the appreciation sequence for cancer care and set the stage for considering where and when physicians have choices about the order and direction the talk can take and how to allocate time for end of life and quality of life conversations.
