In this review, we examine the association between physician professional behaviour and indicators measuring patient outcomes and satisfaction with care as well the potential for complaints, discipline, and litigation against physicians. We also review issues related to the structured teaching of professionalism to anesthesia residents, including resident evaluation. ⋯ A framework is provided for defining behavioural expectations, and mechanisms are offered for teaching and evaluating behaviours and responding to individuals with behaviours that persistently breach defined expectations. There is a need to define explicitly not only the expectations for behaviour but also the processes by which the behaviours will be assessed and documented. In addition, emphasis is placed on the nature, order, and magnitude of the responses to behaviours that do not meet expectations.

Fulfilling the current societal expectations for professionalism in medicine requires a clear understanding of the specific skills, attitudes, and behaviours expected of practitioners. This Continuing Professional Development (CPD) module discusses professionalism as it relates to the practice of anesthesiology. ⋯ The attitudes, skills, and behaviours that define professionalism in anesthesiology must be taught and evaluated to establish a basic level of competence by the completion of specialty training. Throughout their careers, anesthesiologists must continue their professional development to meet current and future societal expectations and shifting norms of health care delivery.
