Abstract:
Background: In our hospital, a mini-lecture is given before a social gathering during “Cancer Salon-”
Purpose: To examine Significance of the mini-lecture.
Method: The results of a questionnaire survey of the participants were summarized.
Results: The mini-lectures were performed by multidisciplinary persons. The survey found that a significantly large number of the participants felt the mini-lectures by persons other than medical doctors were helpful (p=0.021).
Discussion: Mini-lectures are valuable in that they provide not only information but also “create an atmosphere” of the following meeting. In addition, to receive a favorable assessment from the audience, it is important for the speakers, even the doctors, to understand the feelings of the participants, and take part in the subsequent get-together without formality.
Conclusion: The mini-lecture creates an atmosphere toward the social gatherings, and leads the speakers to adapt to the occasion with the participants.
