الوصف: The purpose of this study was to develop deeper knowledge about physicians’ lived experiences of breaking bad news by identifying their common meanings and inter-relatedness along with their potential alignment with process-oriented and relational aspects. Based on the methodology of descriptive phenomenology, in-depth interviews were conducted with 22 physicians from a wide variety of specialties. The participants were invited to freely reflect upon their experiences of breaking bad news by describing situations that had worked well and less well. Results showed that breaking bad news was fundamentally experienced as a relational process constituted by the five essentials of Becoming the bad messenger, Expecting the unpredictable, Being on stage, Professionally managing hope, and Mindfulness of the emotional relationship. In line with recent research, this study confirms that clinical communication involves much more than just delivering the message. However, it also contributes to existing knowledge by focusing on the phenomenology of physicians’ experiences, which enables deeper understanding of the medical profession and the relational process of breaking badnews. As such, our findings are important to enable broader learning in, for example, medical education and continuing courses for clinical staff.
