Abstract

There is an urgent need for validated, feasible tools to assess doctors' performance. A peer-rating tool mapped to good medical practice (SPRAT) is feasible, valid and reliable. SPRAT is ideal for revalidation purposes and performs particularly well in areas that are traditionally difficult to assess. It can also inform personal development planning.
