Charting Phelan's ‘To Suffer a Sea Change’
Megan Winkelman, Jacqueline Ng et al.ARTICLEMedical Humanities2015
Physicians and healthcare workers usually perceive their medical record entries as documentation rather than construction. In the following article, we extract a medical record from a narrative, Peggy Phelan's pathography of glaucoma, 'To Suffer a Sea Change'.

A Call for Narrative: The Patient's Story and Anesthesia Training
Autumn Shafer, Audrey Shafer et al.ARTICLELiterature and medicine1994
Narrative plays a key role in medical education and knowledge, via the case history, the case presentation, or even the patient's chart.

By analyzing themes and content of narratives obtained from patients and medical trainees, the reader gains insight into the realms of patients' and residents' …
