German term

Fallarzt

German to English Medical Medical: Health Care
All,

I am translating a record of continuing education for a medical specialist for psychiatry and psychotherapy.

The relevant passage reads:

Pensum der Tätigkeit mit ambulanten Patienten: xxx %
Bei Rotations- oder Fallarztstellen alle Tätigkeitsbereiche angeben.


The source text is from Switzerland.
Target audience is Australia.

I will be grateful for all hints.

Peter

case-physician

- Fallarzt = case-physician

- Fallstudie = case study

a case–control study - using a case-control design - e.g. three control-physicians for each case-physician

Physician factors associated with increased risk for complaints in primary care emergency services: * a case–control study *
Abstract
Background

Patient safety incidents defined as any unintended or unexpected incident that could have or were judged to have led to patient harm, are reported as relatively common. In this * study * patient complaints have been used as an indicator to uncover the occurrence of patient safety incidents in primary care emergency units (PCEUs) in Norway...
Methods
A case-control design was used to assess if the risk of inducing patient complaint is associated with physician factors including their workload in a PCEU setting. The case is a physician at a PCEU, evoking a complaint. The controls are three randomly chosen physicians on duty in the fourteen-day period prior to the case consultation. In this part of the project the content of the complaints has not been assessed.
Participants
... A complaint was defined as any written utterance of discontent with the physician’s measures, sent directly to the unit or via external authorities. The customized computer programme randomly selected three control-physicians for each case-physician. The control-physicians were sourced from the same unit and had been on duty the same or a previous day as the case-physician. Consequently, a case-physician could turn up as a control for another case and vice versa.

Wenn Dr. E.___ sodann unter Hinweis darauf, dass eine depressive Störung bereits seit Behandlungsbeginn bei ihm nicht mehr habe festgestellt werden können (Urk. 3 S. 1), bemängelt, dass Gutachter Prof. A.___ bei den Diagnosen eine rezidivierende depressive Störung, gegenwärtig remittiert, aufgeführt habe, kann seinen Ausführungen auch diesbezüglich nicht gefolgt werden. Dr. E.___ war - gemäss eigenen Angaben - ab April 2005 zuständiger Fallarzt des Beschwerdeführers im Psychiatriezentrum B.___ (vgl. E. 3.2.4).

Google also directs me to 'Durchgangsarzt' but I am unsure whether this is the case in Switzerland

According to my research, this is a term only used in Switzerland. However, Google associates 'Fallarzt' with 'Durchgangsarzt' Germany. For I was able to understand these are doctors dealing or entrusted with a specific psychiatric case (maybe in connection with insurance or social security).
