@tiffanykguillen: Sometimes expertise can become a trap. When you’ve solved a problem the same way a thousand times, it’s easy to stop asking if that solution still works. Psychologists call this the Einstellung effect, and it shows up far beyond hospitals. It’s in careers. In business. In creativity. But growth doesn’t come from repeating what worked yesterday. It comes from questioning whether that tool still fits today. 🎥 We unpack this idea fully in our new video on YouTube → link in bio #einstellungeffect #educational #podcast #selfdevelopment
I don’t believe this at all. What’s the name of the study?

Cant you say its because those specialists usually get the most complicated patients?

“This is the way we’ve always done it” shouldn’t be a thing in medicine

It is an observational retrospective study that has a lot of issues not limited to inability to establish mechanism, not accounting for unmeasured confounding, sampling bias, and other issues. Nonetheless interesting.

I had a doctor suggest a pacermaker to my dad for SSS that was caused by his medication, instead of changing to a different med first. Its reminds me of this

What is the difference then between the Einstellung effect and an anchoring bias vs confirmation bias? It sounds just like those.

Is that specific to Cardiology or does it extrapolate to other specialties?

There are other studies that support this notion especially with cardiology

Genuinely so fascinating. I love expert doctors. But I love expert doctors who push new limits and push to learn new things more.

Being in nursing school and also working at the hospital I always thought it was so weird that so many patients need the same exact surgery. It just feels like copy and paste. There’s gotta be some that don’t actually need those procedures.

the Einstellung is not linear and is often stronger in people who are more novice experts than people with a lot of experience. furthermore there are interventions and ways of giving feedback that can interrupt the effect, so what we're really talking about is cultures of hierarchy and no psychological safety from other staff.

The over-hype of medical professional intellectualism was put on display during CoHoax when they proved them selves pamphlet policy pimps. Medical error is a third leading COD yet was miraculously removed during 2020/21(g) as respiratory treatment policy changed.

So curious!! would love to see more recent data. "The study population consisted of Medicare beneficiaries 65 years or older who were admitted to the hospital between 2002 and 2011 with a primary diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI), heart failure, or cardiac arrest." -- I'd be very curious to know if the data is the same now, 15-23years after this data was collected. I know that we do things differently, now, in our ICU because the data showed harm in the past.

these studies all have the same issue as ones that study outcomes during physician strikes. guess what happens to the sickest patients when the specialists aren't there to care for them? they get transferred out so your study population is now healthier
