hi,
gave my cs.This is what I did on every case knocked,greeted,introduced myself,draped,washed hands,relevant history and review of systems.PAMHUGSFOSS,did relevant clincal exam,summarising my findings,showing empathy,thanking for co-operation,counsellingWrote fairly good patient notes, except the mistakes which are as follows:
Could not counsel in 1 case. Forgot to give smoking counseling in 1 case.Made two errors of significance In one case though i did collect history of HRT but did not write in patient note and it was important in D/D of that case. BUT THE MOST CRUCIAL MISTAKE:In one case forgot to take Menstrual history and it was important for D/D of that case tooAS I NEEDED TO RULE OUT PREGNANCY,THOUGH I HAVE MENTIONED PREGNANCY IN D/D AND WORKUP IN PATIENT NOTE..Other than this rest all cases almost did everything from knocking,to asking if they have any questions at the end.I really dont know how they rate ,IF THEY TAKE A CUMMULATIVE AVERAGE OF ALL CASES IN TERMS OF DATA GATHERING,MAY BE I HAVE A CHANCE AS I HAVE COLLECTED ALL DATA IN ALL OTHER CASES. for all those who have passed and who might have commited similar or other mistakes give me your opinion. |
