Thank you for participating in the session.

We discussed a 10 year old boy with asthma who was causing concern to parents. We had Dr Urmila role play.
I emphasised the basic nut &n bolts of a History station and how it differs from a Communication station – though there are a lot of similarities in both and a significant marks can be acquired by good communication skills. We completed the history part of the station.

The main learning points are:

• Read the Information sheet carefully.
• Each line and ‘word’ has significance and had been deliberately chosen.
• The cues from there should guide to formulate a differential diagnosis.
• Prepare your questions related to the DD.
• Be systematic in your information gathering.
• Ask screening questions for relevant diagnosis.
• Role player will not give information unless you ask.

Add any further points or comments.
